The answer
Short answer Yes, with an HDMI-to-DVI-D cable. The documented cable works in both directions for video; audio is not carried over DVI.
What you need
The cable or adapter class
- The sheet explicitly documents DVI source to HDMI display and HDMI source to DVI display.
Before you buy
What must be true
- Bidirectional digital-video use is documented; a particular timing or audio mode is not.
Watch out
Direction and exact products matter
