Yes, Gale, but that's an external box. Not really what you were telling the OP...
That Octava box is an output switch, not input. There are HDMI inputs that convert to USB or TB, fi. from Black Magic and Aja, but these aren't built-in either.

Re: Distortion when recording
FWIW, I used to know someone whose sound card had HDMI input and Audacity could record from it if it was an audio-only signal. I don't know the computer model.
I am trying to make suggestions to the user. You can use that box to record HDMI input if you also have a digital sound card with optical input, because one of the Audacity developers has used a similar solution.
Unless the user wants to be stuck with a suboptimal solution recording into the mic input, and unless the converter has a USB output, then they will need to spend money.
