Jan 31, 2015 7:35 AM in response to lllaassby laceysjam,No sadly I do not have a mini DVI Port.
My other thought is to use Apple TV but not sure if I can have both Apple TV and Humax connected with my Freesat dish and broadband?

I am surprised that there are no DVI to HDMI adopters in the UK. What about:
