How do I fix the audio settings for my HDMI TV?
ShaggyHighfieldsfb65...
I'm having a little trouble with my HDMI settings. No matter how many cables I use or what I try to change, the TV simply refuses to play the sound. I know it can play sound through the HDMI set up so it's not a matter of the audio being broken (I hope). I had the same issue with an ouya (that has a sort of sound test thing, which was the sound I used to find out if the TV could actually play sound through the HDMI port or not) and an Xbox 360 and it's just driving me mad. I don't know just what my TV is but apparently it's a Murphy, it's most likely a 22-24 inch and it only has one HDMI port. Any ideas as to how I can fix this?

Does optical need to be hooked to receiver as the HDMI cable to tv?
Depends on the receiver. Some models have just a pass thru feature and connot decode the audio portion of the HDMI signal, and therefore will need a digital audio cable to get sound. Some receivers can decode the audio, so you will need to consult your manual to see what they say. If you need a audio cable it will tell you.
Can you connect your laptop to your tv with a HDMI lead?
Yes, you can in some cases. If your laptop has an HDMI output, a single HDMI lead is all that you will need. Most laptops with an HDMI output also include sound on the connectors but there are some that don't. If your laptop has a DVI connector, a DVI to HDMI lead will work but note that there is never any sound on a DVI connector. If you need to run sound separately, use an analog audio lead. Most televisions have a separate audio input linked to at least one HDMI input that will provide for a separate audio feed.

Where do you plug a rca phono into a 40 inch Samsung D5000 tv?
If you want an audio output from the TV to connect to a home theater receiver or other amplifier, you will have to use the optical digital audio output or Audio Return Channel through the HDMI connectors. Those are the only outputs on this TV.
Is a HDMI cable on every tv?
Hdmi carries audio and video. You will have to connect every component to the receiver that you wish to have the audio portion routed to your surround sound or stereo system. As for the picture you can route from the component straight to the TV if you are only using the TV as a monitor. You will still have to get the audio to the receiver or just use the TV speakers. I had some concerns about loosing picture quality by making an extra connection at the receiver before going to the TV so since I had the ports available and my components did not favor one signal over the other I went from the components straight to the TV and use optic cables for the audio to the receiver. If you have one long and one short HDMI cable try routing component to receiver to TV then try going straight from the component to the TV and see if you notice a difference in the picture. The easiest connection is route everything through the receiver. If price is the issue Monster cable is only one of the best. You can get the same quality for less than half the cost.
No audio output from your Blu-ray player?
Assuming that the connection to the television is via an HDMI connector, the audio should be carried on the same cable as video. However, some televisions have an analog audio input that is associated with the HDMI connector and is there to allow certain sources to run a separate analog audio feed alongside the picture. Use the set up menu on the television to look for an "external audio" function as part of the HDMI set up. If this is enabled, it will prevent the HDMI audio being heard. There are other causes that might be due to damaged cables or a fault in the player or television.
Ps3 that turns on but I get no video or audio I tried the reset but I still have the same problem Can someone please help me?
i have had this problem a few times but i know how to fix it. the problem most likely is that if you usually play with the RWY(red, white, yellow) cables and you have recently used it on an HDMI cable you have to switch it back to the standard cables. if you are trying to play on an HDMI cable and you usually use the RWY cables you have to first switch it to the HDMI settings. to do this first go to settings with whatever both cables plugged in. go to the option on your tv that matches your current settings and that matches the placement of the plugs(ex HDMI 1, HDMI2, Component, ect). when you can see the screen go to the settings section on the XMB(Cross Media Bar). Go down until you reach the display option and select it. now depeneding on what type of TV you are using choose the style of plug you are using(HDMI or Standerd). when you have done this the screen will go black. now you much change the input of your TV to the selection that you have choosed on your display screen(Component or HDMI). When you select the correct screen it should show back up. Now select everyone of the audio options and you will now have audio and display. if this does not work i would talk to a tech expert or the SONY tech support.
When using a DVI adapter with a HDMI cable how is sound processed?
DVI and HDMI cables are similar and compatible for digital video signals. HDMI also carries audio while DVI does not. If a DVI cable, connector or adapter is used anywhere in the signal path, the audio signal will be lost. As many computers have a DVI output and most televisions have HDMI inputs, it is common to find at least one HDMI input on a television with a linked analog audio input. It is usually a 3.5mm jack socket near the HDMI connector. To make use of it, the television's menu setting allows either HDMI or analog audio to be selected. Consult your television user manual for full details.
How do you get audio through an HDMI cable from my rca surround system to my samsung lcd tv?
HDMI cables contain both the video and the audio signal, so you just plug it in and it should work.
Can HDMI carry analog audio?
HDMI cables can carry audio but it is in digital format only. Any HDMI connector will be capable of carrying the audio content and any input should be capable of receiving and processing the audio in digital format. There should normally be no need to use analog audio with HDMI but there is one notable exception. HDMI shares the same video interface format as DVI, the digital display output used on computers. However, DVI does not support audio so a cable that links a DVI output to an HDMI input will not carry audio. For this reason, many new televisions have at least one HDMI input that also has an analog audio input associated with the HDMI port. This is specifically provided to cater for DVI + analog audio as delivered by many computers.

How do you connect surround sound to a TV?
There are essentially two ways to get surround sound out of the Xbox. Via HDMI or via optical (TOSLINK) out. If you have the component video cable, then the end that attaches to the Xbox has an optical out port. Simply attach this to the optical in on your home theatre receiver with an optical cable. If you want to use audio via HDMI, in order to get surround sound you'll have to have an HDMI receiver capable of receiving audio. In this case run the Xbox via HDMI to the receiver and then the receiver via HDMI to the TV. The HDMI will send both audio and video. If you have the official Xbox HDMI cable you can also connect the HDMI cable directly to the TV and use the optical out connector that it comes with instead.

How do you get audio onto a tv from a computer when the video is connected via HDMI - is it possible to get the audio using a jack to rca adapter?
That is exactly right. There is a jack that looks like head phones on one side and the other side splits into left and right audio plugs. On the back of your tv there should be audio plugs that are associated to the hdmi plug. Plug in your audio here. Alternately you can plug your audio dirrectly into your stereo. Or go from your stereo, into your tv or vice versa.
How do you chage a PS3 from hdmi without a hdmi tv?
When your PlayStation 3 has been set to output audio/video through HDMI, you can change the settings to output to a non-HDMI monitor by connecting the PS3 system to the monitor in question by means of the AV Multi-Out port. After this is complete, hold down the power button on the front of the PS3 system. The PS3 will then detect the new connection and readjust its settings accordingly. If this does not work on the first attempt, hold down the power button again until the PS3's menu appears on the monitor, as it may need to cycle through different settings.
How do I connect my desktop pc to my HDMI samsung tv along with an external subwoofer?
Well, you are talking about two separate sound outputs. The audio built into the PC and the audio system that is built into the HDMI system. If you don't use the audio from your pc...the sound is heard from your hdmi device...in this case the TV. Most TVs don't have a spot to simply attach a subwoofer and you have to once again send the output (from the TV) to an external amp...where you can attach external speakers and a subwoofer. Or...you can simple use the PC audio to plug into a speaker system with a subwoofer. Your TV becomes strictly a MONTIOR.
