Hi all...
Haven't posted for a while, so here goes

I've been looking for a DVI -> HDMI lead for my plasma tv - they all seem to be around ÃƒÆ’Ã¢â‚¬Å¡Ãƒâ€šÃ‚Â£40, for the named brand ones.
As I understand it, both HDMI and DVI are fully digital, so for short-run cables, inteference should not be a problem - is it really necessary to shell out for the gold plated, oxygen free etc... cables, or are the no-brand a viable option?
