    I've got a Panasonic Plasma Display with the optional DVI terminal board already installed. I also have Comcast H DVR box with HDMI output. The TV and the cable box are connected via HDMI-to-DVI cable. I am not getting any audio and I know this is because DVi is digital video only. The question is - how do I get audio connected in this situation?

    Do you have white/red/yellow cable connections on the tv? Thats where you can make the connections between tv and stb.

    I actually have a 42" Panasonic plasma EDTV with optional DV terminal board in it; the RCA audio inputs are on another separate board. Any chance of achieving wht I'm after?
