And your DVD player need another HDMI or DVI jack on the TV. But I found almost all plasma TVs have only one HDMI or DVI. How do you solve this problem if you want to connect evey component to the TV vis HDMI or DVI connection? |

But you need to spend the money if you want to keep the qulaity of signal! Examples of convertor plugs to convert HDMI-->DVI and DVI--->HDMI as well as good quality switcher boxes can be found at http://www.avlink.co.uk/product.php?id=16 Just have a browse around thier website then to see all their products. I think their prices are a general benchmark to be looking at for good quality equipment. Another option is to wait for the latest TV's to come out. For example the latest Toshiba 32 inch LCD HDTV, which is due out soon, has two HDMI sockets on the rear. |
