HDMI audio extraction question

Trying to google a hdmi audio splitter for my BR capable laptop is showing everything but what i need..

All I want is a "adapter" to extract the hdmi audio from the hdmi cable before it goes into the tv's HDMI input ( as it doesn't have hdmi audio capabilitie) but has both digital and rca audio inputs as well as the dolby receiver i prefer to use...
Most of what I am finding is splitting HDMI into 2 HDMI outputs or xbox stuff...
Thanks ahead...
I prefer amazon or newegg as I get free shipping.

The proper search term is 'HDMI audio de-embedder'. Try again.

Ty.
Wow, I googled that search term $$$...
All I was trying to avoid was running a second cable for audio 20 freaking feet...
For those prices I can buy a new tv that has HDMI audio, but I guess I will just get a audio cable. Doesnt seem right.

Black sharpie on the LEDS will cut that brightness right down.

Any tape will do nicely. No need to over-react when a simple solution is readily available.

I bought a sheet of "LIGHTDIMS" (link) a while back, but have not yet got around to trying them...
