Will this give me audio and sound if connecting my older tv with new blu ray player?
I have an older tv with a dvi output and just received a new blu ray player with only an hdmi connection. Can I use this device to connect my tv and blu ray and will i get both video and audio? If not, what can I use?
Since DVI only supports video, no it will not transmit the audio signal. The back of the packaging even says it's not for use with audio signals. If your blu-ray player has an optical output and the TV has an optical input, you should be able to use that to get the audio signal to the TV. If not, then you ought to be able to use plain analog stereo cables (red & white for right & left).
