PS3-Hacks.com / HDMI to DVI with sound through MD-Player (Sony MZ-R700)

OviloN · 2007-04-07 09:06:58

Hi folks!

I recently connected my ps3 to my PC-screen through a HDMi to DVI cable but wasn't able to play sound because I havn't a good sound equipment.

So I searched for a solution until I'm going to buy an other sound system.
I was able to solve the problem by connecting my MD-player through the optical-in with the optical-out of the ps3.
Then I connected the sound input of my PC-screen (you can also take some speaker) with the output (earphones) of the MD-player and started to record to an empty MD.

-->Sound is playing

Sorry for my poor English

Just so you know, DVI does not support sound, which is why you won't get sound from HDMI, down to DVI. I have the information here on ALL the A/V connectors.

Single Link DVI does carry HDCP when using any HDMI adapter on either side of the cable. There are known problems with HDCP; the display won't show a picture above 480p when DHCP is not working properly. This is usually because the wrong adapter end for DVI was used. You need what is called a DUAL LINK adapter.

Go down to DVI.
