I was just wondering about the 1530s HDMI output and if it supports 5.1 sound.
I have been plugging it into my receiver (Sony STRDG820) and the sound will only come from the first two channels.
I got my xps 1530 on monday and I used vista media center last night to record some HD shows. Later on I connected my 1530 to my HD tv and set the audio out to hdmi instead of the speakers. When I played back the show, there was no audio on my tv, but when I started up media center, the start up sounds and the sounds when you navigate through media center played back through my tv speakers. Does anyone know how to get it so the shows sound will play back through my tv speakers?

This would be the first time I have every used the HDMI output jack on my 1530 and I have noticed some strange things. First, when I connected the HDMI cable my computer it detected the HDTV but every time I try to switch to it, either by FN+F8 or in the nvidia control panel, it reverted back to the notebook screen. The only way I could get it to work was by rebooting the machine with the HDMI cable plugged in. After it reboots, I can then change to the HDTV no problem.
So why would I need a reboot to get it to work?
Second, after I finally get connected the only resolution that seems to work is 1280x720(720P). If I try to go any higher the picture on the HDTV will flicker terribly. I have connected my 1530 to other displays using the VGA connector and have gotten higher resolutions before, so what's the deal with the HDMI connector?
Background info:
XPS 1530 (Bios A12)
Fresh installing of VISTA Business
Video Driver - (laptop2go modified) 177.98
The sound on my XPS1530 just cut out and I can't get it back, volume is on and not muted, however I still get sound through the headphone sockets.
I have tried to shut down and restart but that hasn't helped either.
Is it possible for the speakers to have broke? Machine is about 10months old.
I have a amp that takes optical input and every other thing conceiveable, how can i get 5.1 sound to play through my home entertainment as it does not to sound through the hdmi on my amp.

I've got them programmed into my tv and get the locals and many crazy channels. I didn't have my dv5t with me since my power adapter is at my parents house and just wondered if the tuner supported qam channels. Also if it does support them, how does Vista Media Center work with them.

View 4 Replies View RelatedBefore I was able to get hdmi sound output to my hdtv, but now its not working.
I try making the default playback device to be Digital Audio (HDMI), but its not outputting to my tv.
I have one problem, and maybe someone stuck on this problem too...
Windows problem report suggested to update video drivers, so from nvidia website i found new drivers (version 185.85).
Everything updated well, but then I tried to connect to LCD TV through HDMI i run into the problem:
the was no sound. I've changed to HDMI output in control panel (usually that way sound was working) and still cannot hear anything. Strange that with old drivers i was able to configure HDMI sound, but with new drivers this function is disabled. Rolled back and sound started to work.
I can't get sound through HDMI connection from my XPS M1530 to my TV (Samsung LCD).

Video transfers great but audio still comes through the laptop speakers.
Â
Testing through Control Panel->Sound->HDMI->Properties->Advanced I can hear the sound through the TV speakers, however there is no audio on my TV when playing music, DVD's, videos etc.
Â
The HDMI installed codec is from Sigma Tel.
I'm using an Inspiron 1564 and I just tri ed to watch a movie from Internet on my TV
I checked with configuration panel the sound output on HDMI connection, it was activated but not connected and, of course, I got no sound on my TV set.
What did I forget in order to have the sound over HDMI ?
I have sony vaio Z11VRN, windows 7 ultimate installed...with all the official sony drivers...
everything is working just great...until I wanted to connect my laptop to my new philips tv via HDMI..
(before I was doing that all the time with Toshiba TV with no issues at all!)... so no I have no sound.
To cut the long story short....it is not an issue with sound card (playback devices selected HDMI one...and the equalizer actually moves...), the TV has no issues since it works perfectly with dvd using the same cable.
When I connect my laptop to my tv the sound does no come out the tv, but remains coming out the pc speakers. it is not a cable issue as my other hp laptop works fine. i can't find a setting to change it to hdmi audio output.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI recently bought the Acer Aspire E1-432. It runs Windows 8.1. When I use HDMI to watch movies on my TV, the sound is not played by the TV but by the notebook. I looked on the internet for solutions for this problem and encountered two recurring possibilities.
Â
1) Go to sound manager, show disabled devices and select the HDMI as main audio output.
Â
When I go to sound manager and try the above solution, I can not select anything but the default audio. It does not matter if I plugged in the HDMI cable or not nor does it work to select the HDMI source on the TV. The option does not appear in sound manager.
Â
2) Update the HD realtek audio driver.Â
Â
I tried removing the driver and letting the notebook update the driver itself. Again it did not work. Secondly, I downloaded the newest version of the HD Realtek Audio Driver I could find (6.0.1.7027) and installed over the old version. Again, this did not work.
Â
Any solution, applicable on this type of laptop, that might do the job?
Â
By the way, chromecast works fine, using the same HDMI port. The cable works as well, for a different laptop of mine is able to produce audio with the exact same cable and same HDMI port.
Everything was fine till I formatted my HDD and installed Windows 7 (wanted to try it).
I have a HDMI cable from my laptop Aspire 5738ZG to my PHILIPS HD Ready TV. Now the picture shows just fine but I've got no sound at all on my TV.
I have tried reinstalling a lot of drivers without success . If anyone knows what's causing this problem please tell me, as I really want sound on my TV while watching movies etc.
I bought a z690 with a blu-ray recorder for $1550 at SonyStyle. The problem: it connects to my high def Vizio Television, but there is no sound coming out of the television speakers, only the Sony speakers.
It says there is an HDMI audio driver but it is not connected, even though it is. Keep in mind - I did upgrade to Windows 7. It was working with Windows Vista
I have a Ferrari 5004wlmi running vista business and have just bought a Sony KDL40V4000 40" LCD TV. I had great plans of plugging the notebook into tv with HDMI cable to watch movies etc. I can get picture on the TV but no sound. I did a bit of hunting round the web and found this is a pretty common problem. But, for me i am yet to find a solution.
I tried updating my audio drivers from the Realtek website but i wasnt really sure which one to install, they have just updated their website with quite a few and i dont know the correct one for this notebook. I emailed them asking for help but they have not replied. I have emailed Acer but got a reply that did not help at all.
In my readings i see that by right clicking on the speaker icon in taskbar then 'playback devices' I should be able to select HDMI cable but i do not get this option; only "Speakers" and "Realtek Digital Output". If i select the digital output option and cross my fingers, touch wood and hold my tongue in the right position i do sometimes get sound coming through the TV.
Seems to be quite a process for it to work though; i turn tv and notebook off, plug hdmi into notebook, turn on tv, turn on notebook, then about 15 seconds before vista finshes starting up i select HDMI on tv and if i am very lucky the sound will work, if it doesnt i restart notebook and then it may work or it may not.
This seems really fickle to me which makes me think something needs fixing. Even if everything is plugged in and working but then i leave it for awhile or watch normal tv then try the notebook again the sound will be gone again.
I see there was a HDMI update on realtek which i installed but it said no driver was supported once it had finished installing, i had the hdmi cable plugged in at the time.
What are the correct drivers to download from Realtek for a Ferrari 5004?
Why do i not get the option for HDMI cable on 'playback devices' do i need it?
Should i really have to go through the above procedure for things to work correctly or should i just be able to plug notebook into tv at any stage?
im trying to setup my uncles new laptop but i couldnt get any sound to output over hdmi
i disabled the nvidia thing and realtek from the sound properties in control panel then couldnt find how ot make them reappear i managed to uninstall the realtek then restart and it installed it again so i got sound on the laptop
but the nvidia hdmi still hasnt reappeared
should i uninstall it too and hope it will reinstall it automatically
after that how do i make it output sound through the hdmi to his tv
I have the HP Spectre 13-3010ea and I cannot get any sound from my hdmi. Only picture!
When I plug in the hdmi going to my tv i still get "Not plugged in" in sound settings...
When I first used the laptop sound would sometimes come through the HDMI to the TV. Now it never does. When I look at playback devices there is no HDMI playback, but only "Speaker/HP". I have gone into the DTS audio panel, which also only lists one playback device. I have also right clicked in playback devices to show all disabled or disconnected devices and there aren't any others.
Â
Laptop speakers or speakers plugged into the jack work fine. The video on the HDMI connection also works fine.
Â
So far  I have upgraded the BIOS to the latest version and also uninstalled the realtek audio driver and installed the latest driver from HP's website.
Â
None of this has caused sound to work through the HDMI or even an HDMI playback device to appear.
I had tried that already, sadly still stale results with no change. Tomorrow I'm planning on buying different HDMI cables to see if it's a hardware issue, I don't want to take my computer in if it's happening to all three (I read somewhere that it may be the cord itself) .....
