[QUOTE="wytwolf, post: 904875, member: 21563"] There will be no difference in DVI and HDMI from a macbook (unless there is a strange limitation by the TV). Remember it's coming from the same mini dvi port. DVI and HDMI on TV's are HD inputs which should be able to display 720 or 1080 (depending on your TV). What effects the picture quality is the video your displaying on the TV from the macbook. You will not get a HD quality picture without playing a HD video on your macbook. It would be just a SD video played at 720p, similar to digital zoom on a camera. The optical output for audio is the headphone jack. If you plug in an optical cable into the headphone jack a red light will come out the other end. [/QUOTE]
