This adapter does a great job of converting hdmi to dvi. It is backwards compatible, but it is important to know that it doesn't carry sound. You can easily work around this though, because pretty much all Hdmi devices have anoter form of audio output. GREAT ITEM!

I have a macbook pro with a DVI out. I thought it would be great to set up the macbook with my HDTV. I already had an extra HDMI, so buying this piece to hook it up cost a painless few bucks. I have my speakers plugged into the laptop, so with a wireless mouse and keyboard, this turned out fantastic. The picture quality is a lot better than I expected, and with this plugged in, I can have my laptop lid closed and comfortably browse the web or watch videos without a problem.

It shows in the pictures a DVI 24+1 DVI-D and they send you a 18+1 DVI-S. A little misleading in my opinion.

The description says DVI-D Male to HDMI, but it was not a DVI-D dual connection, it was a DVI-I dual link connection. DVI-D has four less pins and DVI-I has all pins. So as a result from this, the pins wont let the DVI-I fit in to my DVI-D connection. The product is not as described, and just useless.

As stated in other reviews, this adapter is not actually a DVI-D like it says in the description. It is actually a DVI-I connector. Look it up on wikipedia, you can see the difference. So it doesn't fit in my monitor, which really is upsetting. I also bought this not realizing that it was being shipped direct from Hong Kong. It did take it a week or two to get here, which is better than the advertised 3-5 weeks, but that's the only pro about buying this adapter.

If you were looking for a DVI-I connector and accidentally bought this, then you're in luck.

I bought this little converter for my older TV which did not have a newer HDMI port. Installation is easy, duh! The picture quality was fantastic as well. If you have other HDMI components and need a converter like this one, you can't go wrong.

I bought this item to run from my computer to my new 55" LED Television. I connected the DVI to my computers graphics card and ran the Hdmi to the Television. The DVI connection fit securely into the graphics card port and both screws secured nicely. The hdmi connected into the adapter securely. Overall this worked fine for my type of connection and i currently get 1080p, 1920x1080 resolution.

I bought this product with the recommended hdmi cables to go with the deal and everything worked fine. I need this product to play in HD on my pc monitor from my PS3 and it worked like a dream. I can play my games in 1080p HD with no problem. It does work with pc monitors that have DVI-D outlets and that is HDCP compatible. 10/10!!!

I ordered this so I could connect my computer to my LG HDTV. I plugged it in to my video card, plugged in the HDMI cable to the adapter and the TV, switched the input on the TV and tweaked some settings in Windows and it worked. 1080p video game awesomeness. No complaints.

I bought this product to hook my Xbox 360 up to my new HP LCD monitor, because my monitor doesn't have HDMI imput. Te picture quality is very good when playing games, and I can't complain about that. One issue is when I tried to use Netflix on my xbox, it wouldn't work, because the converter doesn't carry the protected netflix signal (cant think of the name of it) to prevent piracy, so I was unable to watch it. This wasn't a hug deal, because my PC is hooked up to the same monitor, it was just kind of annoying. The connection is also a little shaky sometimes, and it will black out with I turn the monitor. These things aren't a huge deal, and for the price, you can't beat this adapter. I went looking for a HDMI to DVI cord in radioshack, and it would have set me back $50, so this is a much better alternative
