we got the cables in the mail today. The HDMI cable works, the mini DVI to HDMI does not? Very dissapointed..

I got it connected but the screen flickers every few seconds. I Think I got a defective mini dvi.

Are you asking Amazon if it works? Mine works great. If you're asking if it works... Then yes it does.

The one I bought worked. My grandson used it to connect the macbook to the tv, and is using it regularly. You may have gotten a defective one.

Same thing happened to me, although it worked for about a month before dying completely

Yes, but the quality is very poor. I have gone through many of these, it is a better idea to use a regular hdmi cable, with an attachment for the mini display port.

Mine is sitting in the junk room. Most of the time the audio came through just fine for me. My issues was that sometimes the audio was so far out of sync it wasn't even watchable. It's a great concept, but a total POS in reality. Like Clayton said, try updating the drivers and see if that helps. I gave up on mine though. A 15' HDMI cable is cheaper and way more reliable.

Listen, the basics of this product is: SDI came in, HDMI comes out. try it out and let us know. good luck!

Have similar issue, seems the hdmi out port is to blame, changed all the cables (several times) to no avail. This started after only 6 days, bought because of a relative small number of problems, only to encounter one myself. I have yet to find a fix and not willing at this time to have it repaired will prob send back for a replacement

Thanks for all the answers. Yes, with the VGA cable the sound works. If i use the HDMI i lose the sound.

Hello, I made the same mistake, check that you have ALL the cables connected. There are three total - HDMI - Power - I forget the name if the last. But there are three cables to be connected.

I just purchased the mini dvi to dvi adapter and also an hdmi to dvi cable. I also have the audio cables. When I hooked everything up, I could hear the audio and see my desktop only. How can I view something other than my desktop. CAn you help?

No. It only work's from DVI to HDMI. I thought the same thing as u. Wouldn't do that so I sent it back.

Not on mine.normally HDMI is an output for a computer rather than an input. There is only 1 video out on this computer, SVGA. No digital (DVI) either. You might find a vid card that would fit that had these, but it's awfully tight.

Thank you for your advice, Sandra. Yes, I connected the monitor via HDMI. So now I have 3 cable, HDMI, DVI to D-Sub, and DVI to DVI cable. Which cable do you suggest to make a good picture ? Thanks again.

I purchased one of these and it never worked. I went to the Belkin version and it works perfectly. I also have a second monitor at home with an HDMI input and used the Belkin version with HDMI and again worked great.

Apparently this does not work on wii mini. I tried it and got the same result. No power light, no HDMI signal. I returned mine.

Sorry have never experienced that issue, have you tried using another HDMI or DVI cable to try and rule out if that seems to be the issue?

I have the same problem, same tv, same dvi to hdmi adapter, etc...Except I've got an ATI Radeon 8500. I wonder if it's an issue with the tv input and not the video card? Did you ever find a resolution?

From reading the manual (which I downloaded from the Support section of www.sonystyle.com), it said that HDMI-to-DVI cables and HDMI-DVI adapters are not recommended, but it didn't explicitly say they wouldn't work. Reading between the lines, it seems they aren't recommended only because they only send video information, and you'll need a second connection for the audio...which is really no big deal, if you ask me.If anyone can provide more information, I'd appreciate it. I'm planning on buying this receiver soon but my cable box only does DVI, not HDMI, so this would be a deal-breaker.

You have to use DVI. the HDMI cable will not support full screen. It's dumb, I know, but DVI puts out the same quality.
