Yes, I have three HDMI inputs and have two Monster 10.2 Gbps cables,
one connecting the Blu-ray Player and one connecting the amplifier for sound.
My card (GForce 8800 Ultra, says on the NVidia site) does input HDMI but looking at the back I have two monitor plugs
(using them both for two 20” monitors) and a S-Video connector, no HDMI input/output,
must be talking about HDMI capability through the monitor (?).
I tried connecting the S-Video cable but didn’t get any signal.
Guess I’ll have to go with switching over one of the monitors while using the HD TV set with it.
I have seen much cheaper cables but wanted to go with the best between the player and the TV.
Originally, I had planned to pass through the Amplifier to the TV (as detailed in the player manual)
but I get no signal doing that, so I’m connecting them separately.
Problem with connecting to the TV as the monitor is I would have to rotate 90 degrees to view the screen,
which I don’t think is going to work while trying to navigate with the mouse.

This is making me want to try 3DS Max on the HDTV - haven’t tried that yet, but did for playing back some dvix type videos that someone gave me.
