Some/many TVs have a HDMI/DVI port that accepts either HDMI or a DVI-through-HDMI-adapter. On such port, the audio comes from the RGB/DVI Audio-in. So... It should be possible to use a simple DVI-to-HDMI adapter in addition to a standard audio cable. No expensive or bulky adapters needed. References:

2011年11月3日 · DVI to HDMI adapters are for video only. If converting HDMI to DVI, you will loose any audio sent from a HDMI source. If the source was DVI and you are converting to HDMI, there would be no audio there anyway. Also as a note, HDMI to DVI and DVI to HDMI are just adapters, the two sockets are electrically pin compatible and nothing "smart" happens.

2018年4月20日 · DVI is really aimed at the computer market, while HDMI is targeted at media. The fact that DVI is electrically compatible with HDMI doesn't change the fact that most DVI ports will not be able to give audio data. As you may have surmised, this is a feature of the graphics card that needs to be present on the DVI port, allowing it to render audio.

Does DVI carry audio? I've got an Acer eMachine running Windows 7 64-bit and I'm hooking it up to my TV using an HDMI-to-DVI cable. Obviously, the HDMI end of the cable is plugged into my laptop and the DVI end of the cable into the TV. I've got a beautiful picture but any and all sounds come out of the speakers on my laptop.

2016年12月30日 · Specifically, the monitor I'm using has no speakers and only has a DVI-D input, and I would like to play the audio track on a set of external speakers. I purchased some cheap HDMI audio extractor (HDMI-in, HDMI & 3.5mm audio out), and it works with my regular TV that has HDMI inputs, but not with my monitor setup (video signal passes through ...

2009年8月10日 · As DVI and HDMI are electrically compatible, and HDMI can have audio, your pc may be redirecting it incorrectly. I personally have not seen this with a card that is just DVI, but it may be worth checking your sound driver's program / manager and Windows audio manager (if using windows) and just make sure that audio is being directed out the ...

2013年7月13日 · Some video adapters that provide a passive DVI->HDMI adapter DO pass audio out he DVi port. As you thought, DVI itself doesn't carry audio (not included in the DVI spec), but the card manufacturers use extra/unused pins on the DVI connector to feed audio for when their DVI->HDMI adapter is on the DVI port, so that audio is carried over the HDMI cable.

See: Does DVI to HDMI carry audio? So the answer seems to be that you're assuming the DVI port can throughput audio, which might not be true. If your graphics card has an HDMI port, use that. If not, get a card that does. If you have a sound system, you can just output the sound from the computer directly to that and let the DVI run video only.

2016年11月16日 · While HDMI to DVI + audio jack would require no video signal manipulation at all, only extraction of audio and conversion of it to analog. I don't get it. EDIT: Basically what I don't understand is why there isn't a product that combines the small dimensions of the product mentioned above (item 65587) and a simple HDMI to DVI cable.

HDMI and DVI are both digital video signals. The advantage of using HDMI over DVI is that HDMI carries both audio and video over a single cable and for DVI you will need to run two cables one for the video and another one for audio. HDMI is the latest as far as technology goes and all the digital video splitter, extender, matrix solutions are HDMI.
