Just got an HD satellite receiver. My TV has a DVI-D input but the box a
HDMI one so had to spend a fortune on a lead. And of course another for
audio. Connecting the analogue resulted in audio a lot lower than
everything else - despite the box output being on max - so I tried the
SPDIF, same thing.

How come makers agree on picture levels but not audio?

Also, anyone know a source of short HDMI-DVI leads? The only one I could
find is a metre long - 400mm would be more than enough. You can get ones
for Playstations of the correct length - but the DVI connections are
wrong.

You can buy HDMI leads in Tesco. Perfectly OK and just as good as the ones
people sell for 10 times the price and claim they are 10 times as good.
The con artists moved to HDMI after people realised they were ripped off
buying SCART leads.
