Are dvi-to-hdmi cords the same as hdmi-to-dvi cords?

Question

im trying to hook a pc up to a sony bravia, can someone explain to me how, it has hdmi input.

Answer 1

get a adapter.

they sell them at any computer store. Also get a dvi cable. Then hook the adapter to the back of the tv and hook the dvi cable to the adapter. BUT you will not get sound out of it so get a special sound card with coaxial (Dolby digital) or optical.

Answer 2

yes they are the same, just get a dvi to hdmi cable. The pc need to be DVI-D or DVI-I to be compatible with HDMI.
