On this subject I only know what Wiki tells me about DVI. But I
rechecked and see this: "... So, DVI-D devices output HDMI signals, many
including audio, (examples: ATI 3000-series and NVIDIA GTX 200-series
video cards),[9] and some multimedia displays input that HDMI signal,
including audio, by using a DVI to HDMI adapter. Exact capabilities vary
by video card specifications."
So I see what you say is certainly true but it sounds as if there's no
standard for the implementation.
