There are a few video cards with HDMI connectors available what include an audio input header on the PCB. You then connect a cable from the spdif output header on your motherboard/soundcard to the header on the videocard to accomplish what you want. I don't think there are any external adapters or cables that do this. Unfortunately if somebody did make a DVI-D+spdif --> HDMI cable I think the sales volume would be low requiring an uncompetitive price.

If i'm driving my tv using a hdmi cable from my myth box, is it<br>possible to get a breakout connector for the audio (I believe it is<br>just SPDIF), which would allow me to 'inject', my spdif out from my pc<br>
to my tv.<br><br>That's a bit confusing, let me try a diagram:<br><br>PC --------------- Cable --------------- TV<br>DVI-D \___________________ HDMI in<br>SPDIF /<br><br>Sorry if my diagram screws up as well.<br><br>
