[QUOTE="JeffBookPro, post: 519842, member: 32399"] So I just got myself a mac mini and a DVI to HDMI adapter. I have a question though, would a DVI splitter, where it takes the dvi-out from the mini and splits it into two dvi connectors, work? I am looking to take my video from mini and send on dvi cable to my TV and another DVI cable to my computer monitor. This is so I don't have to keep plugging and unplugging a cable in the back of my mini when I want to be on my monitor or TV. So my two questions are, is this possible? and what sort of DVI connection does the mini use? DVI-A or DVI-D? (I am lost when it comes to that) Here is an example of what I wish to buy: [URL="http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=101&cp_id=10113&cs_id=1011304&p_id=2519&seq=1&format=2"]DVI-A male to VGA female and DVI-A female[/URL] or [URL="http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=101&cp_id=10113&cs_id=1011304&p_id=2518&seq=1&format=2"]DVI-D male to two female DVI-D[/URL] thanks in advance for your help. I am enjoying my new mini. [/QUOTE]
