Hi everyone :]

I have a question...

Well, my TV is a HD tv, BUT it doesn't have a HDMI in... :[ :[

Instead, it has a PC in...which is cool because I can hook my laptop up to it, but bad cause I can't hook up my PS3 to it (it also has component, composite, and s-video...)

My question is, can I convert a HDMI cable to pc in? Is there any way possible, maybe even somehow convert a PC-IN to HDMI?

TBH use component, because you'll end up with a mess. 1st you'll have to haveseperate audio wires because DVI does not do audio, and depending on your TV it might not work if you convert HDMI to DVI. I dont know the full details,but that's allI have tosay.

actually HDMI to dvi converters are easy to find and cheap ( google HDMI to DVi). The downside will be that you will have to have a different cable for the audio but i'd say still go for the converter since it will give you better quality than component despite having to use different audio cable
