I have a Dell XPS M1530, and have recently joined the HD Television world and bought a Toshiba 40" 40RV525RZ. I was checking out the HDMI feature on the laptop, checking out how I might be able to use the tv as an awesome monitor replacement. Looks great so far!
My problem is that the audio from the TV is slightly out of sync from the audio on my laptop. Considering I can't turn off the audio on my laptop without turning off the audio on the television (at least, if I can I don't know how), it's annoying having the echo effect coming from my TV and the stereo attached to it.
i just got a new HDTV and I want to watch movies in surround through it. Unfortunately, passthrough is not working, only 2ch PCM stereo, I know my sound system can decode it,
it has done it through an old DVD player on optical no problem (monsters Inc DVD)
For whatever reason, whenever I'm watching a video or something online, my audio will just cut out for no reason via HDMI. If I leave it alone for a while it comes back
Drivers are all updated, the cable itself is fine (Works perfectly for picture), and the integrated speakers work fine when sound is routed through them.
I have a Dell Studio 1537, and I reguarly use my TV with my laptop as an extra monitor, and when I plug the HDMI cable in, the audio switches over to the TV with no problems.
However, it seems that whenever I restart my laptop, (even if it was turned off after having taken the HDMI cable out) the audio is being sent through HDMI, and I have to go and change it to the speakers of the laptop.
Is there any way of basically setting the laptop to send audio through HDMI if it is plugged in, and the speakers if not?
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?
Iv just started using my laptop to output HDMI and iv got a problem with the audio. Iv set the laptop to output the audio and it does work, but whenever a program ends and i open up another one it runs silently, despite me having changed nothing except the program.
In order to get the audio back i have to randomly unplug the HDMi cable, mute it, pause it, unmute it unpause etc and eventually one of these fixes the audio issue
Can anyone shed any light on what could be causing the audio to work sometimes and not work others?
I decided to try playing some 720p video on my Sanyo 42" LCD HDTV (native res 1366x768). I assumed it would be as easy as just connecting an HDMI cable and setting my m1530 to clone desktop.. I couldn't have been more wrong.
After doing some research it appears that LCD HDTVs aren't as flexible as regular LCD monitors with respect to HDMI input. No matter what I do, the screen always appears cropped around the edges on my TV.
What I've tried so far: 1) Setting a custom 1366x768 resolution in the nVidia control panel. 2) Tried setting my hdtv as primary monitor and setting the res. 3) Used Powerstrip (program) in an attempt to force a 1366x768 res (not sure if I'm doing this entirely correctly, I'm a little confused over what the correct advanced timings should be). 4) I hear this issue is called "overscan", so I looked through my TV menu for any overscan or zoom/image scaling options but couldn't find any.
I'm using the 179.28 Nvidia driver.
I'm running out of things to try, does anyone know how to make this thing work?
I have heard numerous comments stating that individuals are only getting Stereo Sound from their HDMI port but then other comments explaining that yes, indeed, it supports Dolby Digital....5.1 Audio etc.
The HDMI port is 1.2 which allows for a PCM 8 audio stream signal.
I have a receiver that allows for internal 7.1/5.1 Audio streams (all of the latest codecs can be decoded and processed) with HDMI output/input connections.
Will I be able to send a 5.1 PCM Audio stream to my AV Receiver and thereby utilizing the full range of audio?
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.
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.
im trying to hook up my LCD (LG 720P) with DP to HDMI cable the video is great but there is no audio, ive tried with my friends tv (sony 1080P), audio goes great, im on win7 and th graphics chip is intels GMA windows recognizes my tv but there is no audio
I recently hooked up my Inspiron to a Sharp 32 inch LCD panel through an HDMI connection. Now, the video works beautifully on it, but I am having some problems with the audio. Instead of going through the Sharp 32 LCD speakers it still goes through the laptops. What can I do to make it go through the Television speakers?
Hope someone can help here. Problem is that there is something wrong with my HDMI device. Firstly, when I plug the cable I have to restart the computer in order to recognize the external device. Once I restart I have picture on my TV from my laptop.
But there is no audio. Sound settings say there is no cable plugged. I tried everything, even re-installing win7. Initially when I bought the machine everything was working ok. But now it doesn't. I think that this started when a Dell guy replaced my screen.
Is it possible that this is something software/drivers based or the Dell guy did something bad on the hardware.
I've been using my 1737 to playback movies and downloaded TV shows to my HDTV via the HDMI socket for ages and its worked wonderfully. Suddenly the other day it stopped working and I no longer get an image on screen or sound.
I've got the latest drivers for my (intel) graphics card and the laptop detects 'something' is plugged in as a second monitor (windows 7 even detects its a Toshiba TV, but still no output on screen) so I assume it it working to some degree.
Hey guys, ive been banging my head against the wall for two days on this one and I need some help.
I installed xp on my M1330 over two years ago when I first got it, only ran Vista for about a month.
And ever since I switched to XP I noticed that there was no longer an option to switch to the HDMI output for audio, but I didnt have an HDMI cable so I didnt care
I did a clean install of Windows 7 on my Z590 after upgrading the BIOS to R2170M3. Everything works perfectly but I just can't get any sound over HDMI on my TV. Totally ruins the Windows 7 experience...
I have the NVIDIA 187.35 drivers from Sony installed. When I install the previous NVIDIA drivers for Vista (174.49), I immediately get sound over HDMI. Apparently this is an NVIDIA problem.
I have a Latitide E6500 with the Nividia Quadro NVS160M graphics card. I'm running Vista Business 32bit. My E6500 vid outs are s-vga and displayport. I use my laptop mainly in my home office and I would like some more real estate, when in the office 1440x900 is just not enough. When looking at monitors displayport does not seem a common input but most have HDMI.
I then looked at monoprice and saw two possible options for displayport -> HDMI, an adapter or a cable. What is the difference between the two and which should I use if I want both audio and video signals transmitted? Or am I stuck using a monitor that has a displayport input?
I recently purchased a Vaio VGN-SR390 with HDMI out. However, I'm not getting audio through the HDMI, even with internet content. Is there a setting I've missed somewhere .....
Running my FW290 with an ATI 3650 through my AVR (Onkyo TX-SR706), I get video, but no audio - audio stays with the computer. I have no audio issues running the computer through HDMI directly to my TV (except at times I've had to switch the default playback device to HDMI). That option is not available here as the computer is not showing any HDMI output.
I am just now getting around to using my DV5t that I purchased back in January. The system is still configured *exactly* as shipped from the factory.
One of the first things I wanted to do was to test its ability to play DVDs, etc when I am on the road, so I hooked it up to a 32" LCD TV via an HDMI cable. The display was recognized just fine, and I configured dual view with the LCD TV as the second monitor.
When I dropped a DVD in and fired up Windows Media Player and HP Quick Play, I realized that I needed to tell it to use the speakers on the TV instead of the internal speakers.
But when I went into the Sound control panel to make the change, the device "NVIDIA HDMI Output - NVIDIA HDMI Audio" showed as 'Not Plugged In' and the device only appeared when "show disconnected devices" was checked..........
New HP f010na, trying to connect to Samsung tv with HDMI. The laptop can detect the screen, but the tv is showing the message "mode not supported" fro the HDMI connection.
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.
Will the M1330 HDMI output 1080p video and 5.1 audio at the same time? I can't seem to find the answer to this. I'm planning on getting a Plasma TV with a DVD 5.1 Audio system.
Just finished installing all drivers in Win XP but I can't get the HDMI audio to work.
When I go to "Control Panel" then "Sounds and Audio" and change to "NVIDIA HDMI Audio" the volumebar is down at its lowest and the entire bar is "greyed out". Also if I play some music I hear a "thumping" sound from my TV:s speakers.
The driver I am using is 1.0.0.30 taken directly from the drivercd that I burned out together with recoverydiscs so its an "orginal" Acer (although Vista) driver.
I have also tried 1.0.0.26 to no luck.
My graphic driver is 180.70 with the modded .inf from Laptopvideo2go.
The other device is "Realtek HD Audio output" and it works fine, that driver ought to be me primary audio driver if I'm not misstaken.
