   Hi.   
      
   I'm using a Samsung smart tv as my display for movies, and it has input   
   for DVI video, but not sound.   
      
   But the point is rather moot, as I have seven boxes on my network, and   
   the only two things that bother me are the extra time taken to d/l in   
   linux and transfer to the Winders box to play (minor) and my distaste for   
   using Winders at all for anything. Really.   
      
   So for now I take the extra transfer time as I refuse to d/l in Winders   
   though I have all the software I need until I can justify buying a linux   
   tested HDMI card. Then Winders can go back to gathering dust.
