I bought this cable to connect a Blu-Ray player or my Livebox (HDMI output in both cases) to my TV (DVI). No signal. The same devices work perfectly with a HDMI cable. I was about to return it to Amazon when I decided to try it on my computer, in the opposite direction: the computer DVI output to HDMI input of the display. And this time it works nickel. So I copied the HDMI cable I used for the computer and I reused to connect the Blu-Ray player to the second TV's HDMI input, now works perfectly. It thus seems that the DVI connection (output) to HDMI (input) working properly but otherwise not. I put three stars because the product description says it works in both directions, while this is not true, at least for me. Be careful before you buy, check which side is the DVI port at home, to avoid having the same problem.
