Good morning all i have a question i hope somebody can help me with. I have a hdmi to dvi cable now on my tv to 811 tv has the hdmi hookup the 811 has the dvi side. I orded the 622 and as i read it seems the 622 is hdmi and no dvi hook up is this correct? and if it is is there and adapter i can buy to make my cable hdmi to hdmi or do i have to buy another cable which is hdmi to hdmi. I hope somebody can steer me in the right direction thank you. SAM

You can buy an adapter to do what you want. I would only be concerned by the fact that DVI does not carry audio while HDMI does. If you adapt the DVI end of your cable to HDMI you would, I think, loose the audio coming out of your receiver. For the cost of an adapter you can get an inexpensive HDMI cable and carry both audio and video without adapters. Several folks here including myself have had very good luck with monoprice.com purchasing nice cables for low $$$.

Monoprice is really going to have to send me some commission soon for all the referrals I'm making.

Ditto!

I also bought a HDMI cable from monoprice.com and it's a good cable.
