Does such a device exist, I am building a new FE and using old components so I with video I will be going DVI to HDMI and I am wondering if there is a way to insert the Audio into the HDMI cable from the Motherboard?

Thanks

I think that cable just has a stereo audio cable built into the hdmi cable. It doesn't actually take the stereo audio, digitize it, and insert it into the hdmi stream, which is what the op is looking for.

Yes, such things exist, but you need digital audio out from the motherboard (if I'm reading your question correctly)

This one accepts a coax connection for the audio:

A quick Google for "dvi to hdmi with audio" produced the above result, I didn't see anything on the first 2 pages of results that accept Toslink input.

yes they exist http://www.monoprice.com/products/produ ... 4#feedback
You could naturally assume that with it's 20 pins HDMI could have set just one aside as standard SPDIF but NOOOOOO! it's totally integrated in a different way.
