Please log in for more thread options No. DVI won't carry sound. You'd need a video card that has an audio input connector on it and an HDMI output port. The video card would then combine the audio with the video and send it along together over HDMI. Does the TV not have audio inputs? Use those in conjunction with a DVI video cable. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

And the reverse as well (of course it wouldn't support hdcp, oh well). sdb -- What's seen on your screen? http://PcScreenWatch.com sdbuse1 on mailhost bigfoot.com | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

That and you'd then need to convert the digital audio signal into one of the other forms. I don't know that the raw bits can be converted with just simple electronics. But HDMI audio is pretty poorly supported on computer systems. I've yet to come across much that can fully utilitize what can be sent over the HDMI link. Most of the time it's the same data as would be sent over SPDIF. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||

Take a look at: Asus M2A-VM HDMI: AM2 mATX motherboard "Displays can be connected via HDCP-compliant HDMI, DVI, VGA, component, S-Video, and even composite out. The 690G chipset also supports a less-publicized feature known as SurroundView, which allows the Radeon X1250 graphics chip to not only provide dual simultaneous displays, but also to operate in tandem with a dedicated video card to provide four displays at once." http://www.silentpcreview.com/article778-page1.html Asus also has a number of other HDMI enabled motherboards that have recently appeared on the market with many more features such as the P5E-VM HDMI: http://www.silentpcreview.com/article785-page5.html I will probably be getting one or the other when I bite the bullet and build a Vista-capable machine. -- Bobby G. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||
