searched in the places i know to see if there is a way to convert the DVI
connection/signal coming out of my computer to be able to be used with the
DVI
input on my hD TV.

I believe DVI is a standard like VGA and only needs cables (no convertion ) .
There is newer standard called HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) but
even here you can buy a cable with DVI on one side and HDMI on the other. So
just make sure number of pins and physical size is the same as sometimes there
could be some variations. There are all kinds of different switchers on the
market but I'm not sure what exactly do you need. For example my HD TV has
separate input for VGA (computer) and another one for DVI for video from HD
cable box for example. It also has component inputs, S-video input and
composite input so I can connect everything I have and do the switching on TV.
If you have 2 DVI outputs and only one DVI input on TV yes, you need a
switcher. http://www.avsforum.com/ will have links, info and much more. |
