You need a Mini-Displayport to HDMI adapter and a HDMI cable. All of this can be found cheap on Monoprice.com
what if i wanted to transmit sound from my tv to my laptop how can i do it using an RCA => 3.5mm
I don't think you can do that. You can only transmit sound from your computer to your TV.
well i have an XLR mic which i connect to my home theatre. Then i want to connect my my home theatre to my computer. any thoughts?
yes HDMI does transfer sound but it mini-dVI don't
Or a 3.5mm optical to TOSLINK.
You can do it if your stereo has a line-out.
I would actually reccomend getting Monoprice's Mini-Displayport to DVI cable, and a DVI to HDMI cable. This is what I did and it saved me from buying two adapters. I can now hook my MBP up to an HDMI port, or up to an external DVI monitor. Hope this helps.
P.S. don't buy the adapter from apple, it's exorbitantly overpriced.
