Customers what quality they should expect when using a single-link DVI cable to connect to an HDTV. I decided to try it, for me to get a real world response to the difference. I could tell a difference between an HDMI to DVI cable and a standard HDMI cable. Hooking my laptop to my TV, I was still able to watch movies in 1080p.

Cable reach does depend on the data rate (and therefore video resolution), cable quality, and the electronics for sending/receiving the signal. The chips in the video basically boost the distance and/or amount of data you can send over a given cable.
when you are comparing a 1080p and 780p. is an hdmi cable give the same quality, or does the (P) matter in how well the hdmi work?
I love that movie
so then its awesome having hdmi-dvi connection right? right now I am hooked up from dvi(comp) to the basic vga (tv) its pretty awesome, but I must try and see what the fuss is about with the hdmi
the sound on PC or on TV with cable? thanks
how do i get audio when using dvi to hdmi cable
i love the 21 movie!!
hdmi and dvi are the same except dvi doesn’t carry the audio signal
hdmi and dvi are the same picture but hdmi overall is better cause it brings full surround sound
My screen just shakes when using a DVI to HDMI cable.. I connect to a 37″ Panasonic TV and have nVidia Ge Force 7200/7300 SE
tat is no help at all
@Barry3443 that is not 100% true HDMI has audio up to 8 channels, smaller connector, support for YUV color space,
Of course the quality will be the same – HDMI is just DVI with audio. It’s the same, digital, signal.
pfft no.
Someone please help. I’m running DVI to HDMI for my Mac Mini. Can I run audio from the Mac to my TV also? i.e. Use HDMI for video, but at the same time have a regular audio source used along side it?
If I use a VGA to DVI to connect my monitor to computer will it have the same quality as HDMI?
But is it possible to connect it? Because I dont have any 5.1 or 7.1 audio ports on my Thinkpad…
Yes, you’ll just need to connect your HD audio card to your speakers/5.1/7.1+
But Ill have HD picture?
I think ive got HD sound card, but there is only one audio out…. so i dont know how to do it
DVI doesn’t have the capabilities of sending audio signals. You’ll have to get a separate cable for that.
Online…
There’s minuscule differences between a HDMI signal and a DVI signal. They’re both digital signals, the difference is that the HDMI is a nice little package that comes with digital audio.
the quality won’t look any different because it all depends on the source’s resolution…you will only see the difference when you use a blu-ray movie, dvd movies you won’t see anything!
Very nice video man!
I’ll subscribe !!
