[QUOTE="danger450, post: 703887, member: 60657"] [b]I CALLED APPLE, and I got the right answer ... ! I will share ![/b] I have to use VGA, at least with my setup. There is an RGB/VGA port on my TV, with a MINI AUDIO adaptor on top of the port. the circuitry here combines the video and audio. therefore, I bought the MINI DVI to VGA adaptor, and will get a VGA and Audio cable similiar to this, at a much much cheaper than HDMI [URL="http://cgi.ebay.com/25FT-SVGA-VGA-M-M-3x-Shielded-Monitor-Cable-w-AUDIO-25_W0QQitemZ170246508768QQihZ007QQcategoryZ41999QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]http://cgi.ebay.com/25FT-SVGA-VGA-M-M-3x-Shielded-Monitor-Cable-w-AUDIO-25_W0QQitemZ170246508768QQihZ007QQcategoryZ41999QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem[/URL] According to the APPLE tech rep, who is one of the main techs apparently for this type of thing, the monitor (TV) will actually work better with the VGA input from a Computer, as it is "set" to "pixelate" (don't quote me on that term !!) so, for $50, i got my solution!
