QUOTE(megatrox @ Feb 16 2009, 05:00 PM) Is there a way to tell that this dvi dongle is for Video only? I bought this RM17 dongle and it seems to have all the pins. Similar to this image http://www.bluejeanscable.com/store/dvi-cables/dviiplug.jpg and I believe that it has all the audio and video output. heard that only the dvi dongle that comes with ATI when u buy the card supports audio.Unfortunately, I still could not get the audio out to my HDMI tv (even after updating the drivers). I'm currently using radeon 4350 with built-in realtek audio asus motherboard. The video card does not come with DVI-HDMI dongle. Is this a video only dongle? how you can tell if the dongle is for audio and video? thats wat the info i gather from the net. I dont have a 2nd dongle now to test |

if not watching blu ray , only watch blu ray rip, no need avr to decode DTS-HD/True HD
if you dont really care about the outlook of your HTPC, and some fun feature like tv recording, tv card, wireless mouse and keyboard, remote control, then you can save alot from those |
