compatability: Is the DVI DVI-I or DVD-D?

Dear Customer, We are sorry for the delay in responding to you and thank you for your interest in our DVI to HDMI Adapter Cable. The compatibility is DVI-D. Please contact us at service@bluerigger.com if you have any further questions. Thanks, BlueRigger LLC service@bluerigger.com

Are you using a dual-link dvi connector? It handles more data than the single version. If unsure, check online for differences.

Get a video card with DVI output(prob $20 on ebay)and a simple DVI->HDMI adapter.

Nope. But you can get them on Amazon, TigerDirect, NewEGG, etc. That said, I wasn't especially thrilled with the quality of the DVI to HDMI video. Lots of sparkling pixels.

DVI? No. Check all cnxs at http://www.samsung.com/us/video/home-theater/HT-D6730W/ZA-specs?

I found that the DVI cable did not work after the first few days. Of course that may have been due to the computer, but I doubt it. I switched to a DVI to VGA converter and have had no more trouble nor can I tell the difference in image quality. I think that DVI is a technology not quite there yet.

DVI video port gives you digital signal capable of 2560x1200 or higher resolution. What else HD do you need? HDMI? Most likely you can use DVI->HDMI dongle

Sure, shouldn't be a problem. I've converted mine to Thunderbolt. The biggest problem overcome by using this monitor is that the power has to go through this adapter. The DVI signal is fully standard.

Yes and no. For it to work you need a Mini DisplayPort to Dual-Link DVI Adapter. These are not cheap. This adapter will cost you $70+ If it's cheaper than that, you're probably buying a single link DVI adapter which WILL NOT WORK. The following are amazon product IDs of compatible adapters which you can search for on amazon: B001IF252C B0045I85GY B004C4SEH6 B004I6L6DW

The DVI works fine. The problem is likely your video card and possibly the cable.Read the specs and you will see that it requires a specific kind of DVI (there are four).The cable looks similar but the pin-outs are different.Look for a video card that supports the dual DVI connection.These cards tend to be more expensive, which makes sense as you are pushing a high resolution.You will need a card with at least 2 Gig of memory (prefer DDR5; or min DDR3) or your experience will suffer.Look at an AMD Radeon 7700 series or higher card.If I recall correctly, it requires dual DVI.

You should use DVI-D dual link cable. Unfortunately not all DVI cables are equal. Even if you see all pins present on the cable ends it doesn't mean that the cable is actually DVI-D dual link type (see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Visual_Interface). For me this mistake ended up in buying new video card as I thought my old one wasn't capable of supporting this resolution.

I am sorry to tell you that I made the same mistake. All you can do is mirror the DVI input. One thing I am working on though is creating aa custom driver that will double the virtual width of the monitor resolution while still maintaining the same height. I have gotten close once but the aspect ratio for the width doubled as well. Resulting in watching movies with a bunch of short fat people. My work around for now is to use the vga jack out of my laptop for one 23" monitor and an HDMI to DVI-D adapter and DVI-D cable to my other 23" monitor. This gives me 3 hi-res displays to use. Not the most elegant solution but it works. If you find an answer I would love to here it. If I get my custom double wide driver to work I will be happy to share. Cheers, CJ. Cjchumbley@computer.org

Should work fine. hdmi and DVI share the same pin arrangement -- the connector heads are the only difference.

DVI-D is digital and will not work if you have and old analog monitor but will if you have and LCD monitor ( flat screen thats HD ) some of the old LCDs are analog.DVI-D is digital only as per the 'D'. DVI-I is integrated as per the 'I' If you look at the DVI-I connnector, it has 4 pins around the flat blade looking pin. Those 4 pins are the analog signal. DVI-D connector is missing those pins so a simple adapter will not work as the analog signal is missing. The signal converter will most likely cost more than a HD LCD monitor. Hope this helps.

I think I previously answered yes to this question, but no, it will not work, dvi in any format will not transmit audio

Buy a vga to DVI-D adapter and a DVI-D cable. Do not use a vga to HDMI cable with wide gamut monitor.
