Most DVI ports on PC graphics cards are actually intercompatible with HDMI using a passive adapter (usually supplied with the card). Technically, it's not strictly DVI that's feeding the audio, it's just a hybrid DVI-HDMI port.

If you don't need to watch 2 different things at the same time that makes it a lot easier. You could probably just mirror the output in that case, allowing you to use a simple TiVO-style "6-foot" interface.
