Display adaptors

Question

Display adaptors

Morning all,

I have a Macbook Air (released in the UK this year) and I want to connect it to my HDTV for films.

If I use the Belkin adaptor (mini displayport to HDMI), will it transfer audio as well as video to the TV? Or will it just be video?

I only ask as I've seen a comment on the Apple website that the audio transfer will only be for Macbook Pro's purchased after 2010???

Thanks

(New to Apple and loving it)

MacBook Air, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4)

In general, all MacBooks released after 2010 supports video and audio over Mini DisplayPort, so in your case, you will get video and audio in the TV.
