I need to connect an HDMI outlet to a VGA-only monitor.

Question

I need to connect an HDMI outlet to a VGA-only monitor.

I need to connect an HDMI outlet (on a video recorder) to a VGA-only monitor, so that I can run my new Mac mini and the recorder to the same monitor. The adaptor supplied with the Mac mini is HDMI to DVI-D and I also have a cable from the Mini DisplyPort to VGA. This works well with the Mac mini to the monitor. Can I get an adaptor or cable to connect an HDMI male to a Mac DisplyPort female?

iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8), 16 GB memeory

Yes, but it for Mini DisplayPort displays, not VGA displays (even with adapters).
