I always thought that if you could go from HDMI>DVI then you could do it the other way, however, every store I went to, radio shack, frys, best buy, etc, there are only adapters to go from HDMI to male DVI, so basically, expecting the DVI connected device to be the monitor, not the source, if that makes sense.
The link you send me clearly shows female DVI to HDMI, so this is good, I think I will order a wire and see how it goes. I don't watch a lot of TV, but I use my computer for much of the media playback, and also being able to have a good 2nd monitor would be great for my work. 800/600 isn't that good, and it's pretty much the best I can get on s-video before text becomes too hard to read. Upconverting using VLC media player has me excited too.
Thanks for the link and clearing things up, both you guys. On a different note, good component video from my HDTV receiver looks just as good, if not better, than HDMI. There is a case of "too digital" sometimes, but as far as the computer is concerned, the sharper the better.
Hopefully my videocard will see the TV as a 2nd monitor on DVI. I know it can do about any resolution imaginable, but the refresh rates have me wondering... interlaced DVI? I don't know, but worth a shot.
