eww,
How do i use it in Extended Desktop Mode? I didn't even see that as an option in the Display Prefs.
I just want to make sure i got this straight because you responded to one of my other posts in my thread about basically the very same thing.
I had purchased previously the Mini-DisplayPort to DVI adapter & a DVI to HDMI cable to plug into my 46" flatscreen. This did the video, but no audio. So i ended up taking it back and got my $ back on that because i was directed to this Kanex iAdapt 51 Mini DisplayPort to HDMI w/ 5.1 Channel Digital Audio instead.

If i get that, then i'll need to get an HDMI to HDMI cable to get that to work and that will do the video and audio, unless i run into another problem like greglake has.
However, if that does not work, then if i get the Mini-DisplayPort to HDMI adapter, found here

and then get the Toslink to Mini-Toslink adapter found here

If i avoid the Kanex Adapter, will getting the rest of that do the job? Thanks!
