Is it possible to connect a Lenovo X1 W10 laptop HDMI out to PS Audio Direct Stream I2S input?

I am looking to burn in an HDMI cable …

Hi @maxim,

While the connection can be physically made, I2S is not compatible with the HDMI output of your computer. I2S makes use of an HDMI cable to transmit audio data between devices that support the I2S data protocol.

A TV connection would accomplish this better I think

How would a TV connection work to burn in a hdmi cable for i2s?

You just want to pass a signal through the cable. Doesn’t matter what kind it is.

Would laptop to a monitor hdmi connection work, too?

Sure and cheaper to run.
