Mac-Mini HTPC Video-Out Problems (DVI to Component)
I recently decided to go with a Mac-Mini as the central-brain of my HTPC configuration, and I was immediately halted in the process of getting things working by my inability to properly output video from the Mac-Mini such that it's even visible on my 50" Plasma TV (Panasonic TH-50PHW3).
Neither of my A/V Receivers (Denon AVR-3805 & Denon AVR-2805) have HDMI inputs, but both of them have component video inputs for HD content, so I purchased the DVI-to-Component cable linked below to use for outputting video from my Mac-Mini to the Denon:

Needless to say, nothing I've tried has been effective in my Mac-Mini being displayed on my Plasma TV??
Any thoughts?

It even says on the site:
"These cables are not compatible with PC or Mac video card outputs unless specifically stated in your video card."
Apple sell one of these:
