Comments about Aluratek AUH200F USB to HDMI Adapter w/ Audio:
Let me start by saying that this device sends a crisp picture and fabulous sound out to any TV outfitted with HDMI. The uses for this as a mobile presentation device are limitless.
That said, it's NOT what someone who is setting up a home entertainment system is looking for. I had seen one review online that said about the same thing, but thought I'd give it a go anyways. The outcome: I'm returning the product. Video is constantly lagged as the audio streams through nicely... possibly a refresh-rate issue. Needless to say, though, it's not the HD movie experience I was looking for.
On a side note, surfing the internet from the couch wasn't inhibited at all by the refresh rate! If that's all you're looking to do, and the added price of USB audio equates to something you'd also like, then this may just be for you.
One quirk, and it may just be in my setup, but when the device is plugged in, the computer can be turned off and on, as can the TV, without any need to touch the connector. But if the connector is unplugged and plugged back in while the computer is on, the device itself has to be powered off and back on before the TV recognizes the signal, making it necessary to leave it accessible in what may be a complicated AV setup.
