5.0 out of 5 stars Converts HDMI to DVI with HDCP, January 13, 2007

By	Gadgester "No Time, No Money" (Mother Earth) - See all my reviews (TOP 100 REVIEWER)

Amazon Verified Purchase

I bought this cable to connect my Playstation 3 to an HDTV set that has only DVI (I think it's DVI-I) but no HDMI. This cable works beautifully. Image quality is really good. The price just can't be beat.

You should be aware that while HDMI carries both audio and video, DVI is video only, so you still need to route the audio to your TV somehow. For example, I use an optical digital audio cable to do that (together with an expensive converter box as my old HDTV set doesn't have an optical input).

4.0 out of 5 stars Works but.., March 21, 2007

By	Seattlite (Seattle, WA) - See all my reviews

I purchased this cable to connect a PC to Samsung S4095D HDTV. And the cable worked great; but.. be warned that connecting PCs to HDTVs (via DVI/HDMI) is fraught with lots of pain. The main problem is that the PC desktop is cut off so the borders are not visible; not a problem in movies, but totally breaks games.

While you will find lots of people on internet forums who have "made it work", I spent days twiddling drivers and settings and never managed to make it work. The difficulty in making this work seems to be some (undocumented) property of the HDTV. In my case, I assumed that "has HDMI port" meant that I could use this cable to make DVI work.

In the end I switched back to using a VGA cable which looks fine and worked the first time.

So, the cable worked and was cheap; but it may not be the right solution to the problem (connecting a PC to your HDTV) which one would think is its primary purpose of existence.

5.0 out of 5 stars No problems at all!, June 27, 2007

By	Mou "It ain't no sin to be glad you're alive!" (Rural Kentucky) - See all my reviews

This cable was dirt-cheap and did exactly what I wanted it to do: connect my MacBook Pro to my TV. Couldn't be happier with the price or the quality.
