Digital camera reviews of Cables To Go 40320 Velocity HDMI to DVI-D Digital Video Cable (2 Meter/6.5 Feet)
Digital camera Review: Works GREAT for my computer Monitors w/ PS3
Summary: 5 Stars
I just bought a PS3 and wanted to connect my computer monitor with it (HP 2009m) The build and picture quality is great!Digital camera Review: Works Perfectly
Summary: 5 Stars
Connects my cable box (with DVI out) and my TV (with HDMI in) perfectly. Keep in mind, you'll need some other way to get sound to the TV, since this cable doesn't carry audio.
Don't let the low price of this thing throw you off, as if anything good can't possibly be that cheap. You really don't have to pay the outrageous prices they charge for HDMI and DVI cables in the big box stores.
Digital camera Review: Works beautifully
Summary: 5 Stars
I use this to feed my PS3 signal to my monitor and it works beautifully. Despite the fact that my monitor is not HD and only supports 480p, I have been pleased with the quality I have been getting. Of course, my monitor is not my primary screen, and switching back and forth between my monitor and TV can cause some problems as the PS3 gets "confused" about what video signal to send out. For instance, I might use an HDMI cable to use the PS3 on my TV at 1080p, then bring it back to my monitor, to which my monitor tells me that the signal is not supported. The problem occurs with the included A/V cable or a component cable. There is a simple solution to this problem. While the PS3 is off with the red light on, hold the power button for five-six seconds until the system beeps a few times in a row. The PS3 will then boot up and ask what video settings you want. Presto!Digital camera Review: Works but..
Summary: 4 Stars
I purchased this cable to connect a PC to Samsung S4095D HDTV. And the cable worked great; but.. be warned that connecting PCs to HDTVs (via DVI/HDMI) is fraught with lots of pain. The main problem is that the PC desktop is cut off so the borders are not visible; not a problem in movies, but totally breaks games.
While you will find lots of people on internet forums who have "made it work", I spent days twiddling drivers and settings and never managed to make it work. The difficulty in making this work seems to be some (undocumented) property of the HDTV. In my case, I assumed that "has HDMI port" meant that I could use this cable to make DVI work.
In the end I switched back to using a VGA cable which looks fine and worked the first time.
So, the cable worked and was cheap; but it may not be the right solution to the problem (connecting a PC to your HDTV) which one would think is its primary purpose of existence.
Digital camera Review: YES!
Summary: 5 Stars
Just what I needed and much cheaper than what Best Buy would try to sell you. Hooked this up to my PC and 55 inch HDtv and it works great. Im at 1080P and it looks sensational. Ofcourse HDTV's always overscan computer input so I had to scale it back to 1836 X 1024 but who cares, it looks awesome and it fits the screen perfectly. Id definitely recommend it. Anyone who has had problems with their computer needs to blame either their TV or video card because this cable is not the problem.
