Yes, I have ours fed into two Sharp 70" led panels and the HDMI audio feed works through both panels with no issues at all. The room has its own audio so we don't run the sound on the panels, but the option is there and works. Did you get all the way into the sound settings on your mini? I'm not a Mac whiz, so I don't know exactly which steps you take, but there was more than one until we saw the HDMI choice. Actually the Mac is a dual boot to win7pro and it works on that operating system too. I can't stress how happy I was when I got my hands on the accell adapters, passive adapters just plain screwed me around in circles!

The Fosmon mini displayPort (MiniDP/mDp) to HDMI works well. The problem I had at first with my MacBook Pro wasthat I did not have my display option set to "Mirror" the computer's screen. Now I watch movies etc. on my HDTV.

Windows 7 runs great on the 2010 Mac Mini. I have ours hooked up to our living room HDTV and Windows Media Center (w/Netflix) and Boxee both run flawlessly. Paired with a MCE remote and a USB HDTV tuner it's pretty much the best all-around HTPC setup I've ever had (and I've had several -- from custom built behemoths to ION-powered nettops).

I have not used it personally, but apparently there aren't any official drivers yet for Mac. Like the other answers said there is 3rd party software that will allow it to work.

I did not have success using this product to connect a MacBook Pro to a number of different monitors. I connected a the DVI-D end with a dongle to my mac, and I plugged the HDMI port into the monitors. Maybe I was using it backwards but I don't think so, it would work for about 30 seconds before the screen would blur with a red snow.

I can confirm that it works for my Mac. Mac Mini 2009, OSx 10.8. Plugged in, didn't work at first. Rebooted and then it worked. It doesn't seem to have a driver, but I tried with Photobooth and their MicroCapture software and they both seem to work.

Hello Destiny. It actually doesn't work with macs. To be honest, I tried a number of things. However, the only option that I could see was to use the software while running VMWare or Parallels so you can run Windows on your Mac, and be able to allow this to work. However, if you're still looking to have something that works similar, but doesn't cost as much, here are some links that may be helpful: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5s5EvhHy7eQ or http://johnnylee.net/projects/wii/ . These options use a Wii remote as an IR camera. I hope this helps :)

I have mine on a PC. It should work fine on a MAC but not as well on a MAC Mini.

I have this and I do not use it much. From what I can tell just the basic web cam works, no other features work. What I have come to realize is the only Mac that does not come with a web cam built in is the mini (which is what I have), so not many companies produce a web cam that is compatible. This was one of two I found that are supposed to work with Mac, I don't remember what the other one is but i tried that one first and it did not work. I don't know if this helps, sorry if it doesn't.

I've been using Elgato EyeTV, from the the EyeTV 200 many years ago to my current EyeTV HD, and I've never had computer freezes or lockups. Although you may not get smooth playback of 1080 HD recordings on an old Mac, I was able to play HD video just fine on my previous Mac mini 4 years ago (early 2009 model). I'm now using a Mac mini (mid 2011) model.

I couldn't get it to work at all on mountain lion. One support person confirmed it won't work on Os X at all and the other person assured me it would????I never did find an external modem that would work and ended up using Nextiva.com for my fax.

Thanks! This looks great for the Mac, but a PC version (or parallel) would be great. Basically I'm looking for a timed way for a camera to come on a specific hour, and record until another hour, and then rotate the video files. Thoughts?

I know it works with PCs. I have used on several. Not sure it would work on a Mac, but I see no reason it would not. Do remember that as the source is display port, there will be no sound out put on the display.

I second what Mickey said, to check the box to show mirroring options on the Menu Bar. When I first used the adapter, the TV screen mirrored my iMac desktop, then one day it was only the Desktop background image. I found that mirroring options box was unchecked. Checked it again and all was well.- I'm a Mickey, too.
