HDMI Adapter???


Has anyone used an HDMI adapter to DVI with any success in trying to get a hi-def picture?

My HD DVD player requires an HDMI connection for a hi-def picture. My projector only has the regular rca connector for video or DVI connector.

your comments and experiences here will be welcomed..

Just used an HDMA-DVI cable yesterday to demo an HD processor. Passed an HD pix just fine.
yes I have.
I picked up an HDMI /DVI cable from Signal cable and am happy with the results. (oppo 871 ?)

Good luck,
Jeff
Greetings,
With both of the Hi-Def formats You might have a problem with the HDMI to DVI connection because of a sync issue having to do with HDCP. I had ths problem with my Sanyo PLV-Z2 and others have had the same problems with various other older projectors(couple years) with this connection. I had this issue with the Sony BDP-S1 and the Toshiba HD-XA1(hi-def players). I never had a problem with my Pioneer DV-59Avi or any other SD/up converting player through the conversion.(HDMI out DVI in).
I second the MonoPrice recommendation. I have to laugh when I see folks paying hundreds of dollars for HDMI cables that can be purchased from MonoPrice for less than $25.

That adapter looks like the way to go for you, despite the fact that it doesn't cost enough [smile]...
