I will connect the dvi to hdmi cable into the monitor and connect the hdmi on the end of it to the hdmi on the adapter connected to the monitor.Will it work.

thanks tigger.

yes, it works.

you're basically saying a DVI to HDMI adaptor on both ends, using a HDMI cable in between.

It works fine, i do it at home.

As mussels said. However, if you are wanting to use a LONG HDMI cable, best to get the better quality Category 2 (high-speed) HDMI cable. It's not true to say all cables are equal, the signal is digital. On longer cables you need to "manage" signal degradation, interference, crosstalk and attenuation. I've often had issues, especially in the conference room, where long cables result in no-signal or blinking/loss of picture. Not sure what other problems might be caused.

For short lengths, say less than 5 meters, you really dont need to worry. Any HDMI cable will do.

Ahhh... I'm going to do this now. I have a DVI to HDMI at the moment, but when i have my monitor to standby after 20mins - it's goes to this blue screen that says "No input detected".

Thanks Tig

HDMI cant pass standby signals.

Pity. Might just have to get something to go in the HDMI

Mussels · Sep 11, 2009

if you use HDMI cables on a DVI port it may well still get passed, i just know that native HDMI cant do it - aggravates me with my HDTV (since it only has HDMI and VGA, and i use the audio so a DVI adaptor is out)

MoonPig · Sep 11, 2009

Well, i'll report back when i go and do something.

I have: DVI, HDMI, VGA, 3.5 IN, 3.5mm OUT. On this Asus

I just went and got a dvi-d cable.works fine,but its strange how the monitor was weird with vga connection.The diplay was too wide,to fit on the screen.I tried all sorts of fiddling but could'nt suss it out.Its fine on the dvi though.

MoonPig · Sep 12, 2009

Ok, it works. I have this:

8800GT > DVI to HDMI cable > HDMI to DVI Adapter > Asus VH226

When it's ment to standby the screen, it goes black. Perfect.

Does ur monitor have HD or just normal 16:10 LCD, this thread could help me to decide wether to get HDMI on my monitor, btw i got a 22'' LG W2242T

It a 22" normal 16:10 lcd.Imo though dvi is a lot better than using the normal vga connection,i guess hdmi is quite similar.
