Hello, guys.
I have connected my PC-TV with DVI to HDMI cable.

No lags etc,works perfect.But i don't have sound on the tv,the sound it's still on pc speakers.

It is possible to make the sound to sounds to TV?

On the sound settings i see my tv speakers on the list but is Disconnected. i click connect and nothing changes,any suggestion please?
 
Solution
dvi does support sound through s/pdif
on your graphic card there should be 2 pin unnamed port (spdif input), on your soundcard (or mainboard under pcie-slots in corner)) there should also be 2 pin spdif out
use 2pin cable according to your connectors
cable should look like this

this thing was used before gpu makers started to add sound cards into gpu

I saw those cables on the store i bought the DVI to HDMI.
"on your graphic card there should be 2 pin unnamed port (spdif input), on your soundcard (or mainboard under pcie-slots in corner)) there should also be 2 pin spdif out

those are outside the pc case or inside the pc case?
And how the connection works? the 1 side connects to pc,the other side of the cable? (sorry for stupid questions,first time i attempt such a thing)
