maximilian09,
Does the cable box have only DVI out? You might consider asking your cable/sat company for an upgraded box. The benefit of HDMI is that both audio and video can be passed through the same cable.

The cable box is scientific atlantic explorer 3250 HD. It only has DVI out, which does give me video. It also offers optical audio out and digital audio out. I have hooked up digital audio out with an rca to 3.5" mini cord that plugs into digital audio in on the tv. No audio with this configuration

Therefore, you should use 'RCA stereo-to-3.5 mm stereo' cable. On the cable box, the audio outputs are red and white and are directly above Digital Audio Out.

maximilian09,
Optical would also be an option.

Oops, I was thinking of a receiver configuration. My bad.
