I recently got some VGA to composite cable to hook my computer up to my tv. I got it hooked up but the signal isnt working. I have two more options to try and wondering if anybody would know the best choice. I could try getting DVI-I to composite, or I could get HDMI to DVI-D but with the possibe risk of auido lose to the diff. between DVI-I and DVI-D. If anybody would know the best choice any help would be nice thanks.
hi. i have a DVI-I male to HDMI female. I am wondering how it is possible to make sound come from my HDTV. I was told i needed DVI to transmit both video and audio signal for my screen. do i still need a sound receiver for this? thank you.
DVI does not carry audio. Only video. If you're using a cable with HDMI on one end and DVI on the other, the DVI connector stops the audio capability. The cable needs to be HDMI on both ends, to carry both audio and video.
but it doesn't make sense then. i guess that ebay seller is false advertising then. This is what it stated on the features.
