HP Pavilion dv9218tx Notebook PC and HDMI audio problem with Sony TV and Windows 7

Sound does not come through with the HDMI connection and, on investigation, there is no HDMI audio driver/option.
Noting that there seemed to be an issue with windows 7 and HDMI audio which is addressed by updating the BIOS and the connexant sound driver I have done so to no effect.
The Sony TV is recognised as a standard monitor in the devices for graphics but not for audio
Suggestions as to why HDMI does not appear - including as a disabled service - and what to do t get is available?

  • MDP to HDMI display problem with Sony Bravia

    Hi,
    I've tried without success to connect my 2010 MBP to my Sony Bravia KDL-40W2000 using a Griffin Video Display Converter and an HDMI cable.
    The TV isn't displaying a picture and no audio is transmitted either.
    When the Griffin adapter is connected, I see an additional Display preference window (titled 'SONY TV'), but whichever options I choose in that window, I can't get anything to come up on the TV. I've tried all the resolutions possible and have experimented with turning mirroring on and off. Every combination ends up with the same result: the display is fine on the MBP but nothing appears on the TV.
    I've looked through the TV's menus but there seem to be only a few relevant settings to tweak, and tweaking them hasn't helped. Sony's support team told me that their TVs aren't designed to accept HDMI input from computers(!), which just doesn't seem right given that others have had no problems in connecting up their kit to Sony TVs.
    I know the HDMI cable is fine as it works when connected to the TV via another device.
    I'd guess that the Griffin adapter is faulty, although if this were the case I wouldn't have expected the extra Display preference window to have appeared.
    Is anyone able to diagnose the problem before I try to get the Griffin adapter replaced?
    Thanks,
    John

    Hi John,
    Did you fix your problem? I have an uncannily similar problem. I bought my MBP in December '09, and recently bought a Neet mini HDMI adaptor (http://www.amazon.co.uk/DisplayPort-AUDIO-v1-3b-adapter-cable/dp/B002SKJKE2/ref= sr126?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1282087795&sr=8-26) and HDMI cable. But I can get nothing at all through to the Sony TV through it. My Sony TV is KDL-40s3000. I went into the Preferences - Display and it didnt detect the Sony there, and in the Sony menu, under Settings - Set-Up - HDMI Set-Up, it never detects any device either. Under the channel on the Sony I chose for this, it does say "out of range". Perhaps that has something to do with it. Any solutions you found, please let me know!

  • HDMI Audio Problems with HPEnvy

    Hi,
    When I connect the HDMI port to an Elgato Game Capture Card, there is video, but no audio. Examining the audio options, the HDMI audio driver is not even loaded.
    I have the latest drivers, and in fact, when connecting to other devidces (such as a Samsung TV or audio enabled monitor) using the HDMI port, the audio works fine, and the HDMI HD audio driver is available in the audio menus.
    I know that some people on other windows 8.1 platforms have been able to do this, but not me.  I would  love a solution.
    Currently, I am using the audio from the earphone port, but the sound is less good than I would like, and of course there is an additional rats nest of cables this way.
    Thanks so much for any help.
    Best,
    Scott

  • Problems with Sony NX3 AND Sony Z5 avi files

    Very, very strange problem. I will try to give as much detail as possible so bear with me.
    I currently edit with two different computers. One uses Premier 3 the other uses Premiere 6. I shoot with several different cameras, but for purposes of this discussion I will talk only about the Sony Z5 and the Sony NX3. I capture my footage on a CF card (Z5) or SD card (NX3)
    All HD footage shoot with the Z5 and/or the NX 3 works fine on either system. However any SD footage that is over a certain length will not import into premiere 6 (if it's from the Z5) or the length of the footage will only be 2:37 (on footage from the NX3). However the SD footage from either camera will play perfectly on the system with Premiere 3.
    Any ideas on what my problem with premiere 6 is?

    I caputured footage from my ZU1 yesterday that encountered time code breaks. They should not have been there. My only thought is that the breaks occured when I shut the camera down and started recording later.
    Maybe... I assumed it was user error... I was wondering if perhaps a setting in the camera was causing the breaks when the camera powers down.

  • USB audio problems with 2013 iMac

    I'm having a strange audio problem with USB microphones and headsets. The issue with my Logitech H650e is shown in this screencast I recorded. In the first part of the screencast, I am not speaking into the mic—yet you can see the levels fluctuating as if there is static playing (not in a natural pattern that you'd see when someone is speaking). In the next part of the video I demonstrate that selecting the built-in iMac mic for input, and then re-selecting the Logitech headset temporarily solves the problem. You can see the input start to fluctuate normally as it should when I am speaking. But at 0:31 in the screencast, you can see the input levels freeze and stop registering anything. I continued to speak until the end of the screencast, but no input was detected. For this screencast, I was on a Go To Webinar call, but the problem occurs regardless of whether I'm using Skype, Go To Webinar, GarageBand or any other software.
    The problem with my Blue Yeti USB microphone is also different. In that case, the input does not freeze as it does with the Logitech headset. The levels appear as you would expect, and it seems to work. However, the person on the other end can hear static in the background, even though I don't hear it in my own headphones. I learned this because I just tried to do a Skype interview with the Blue Yeti, and the interviewer told me they could hear static. We closed Skype and called each other back twice, but the problem persisted. Then, suspecting the problem was related to what I described above with the Logitech, I unplugged the Yeti and then plugged it into my Macbook Air 2013 (also running Mavericks). Lo and behold the static completely disappeared.
    My Griffin iMic and Audio Technica lavalier mic (attached to the iMic) behaves similarly to the Yeti, except in this case I can hear the static when I speak with my monitoring headphones. The input works but I get a lot of cracking and static in the background. This was confirmed by calling the Skype Test Call number and recording a message, which is then played back.
    Here are the facts:
    All 3 of my USB audio microphones/headsets do not work with my 2013 iMac running Mavericks
    All 3 of these microphones/headsets worked fine with my 2008 Mac Pro running Mountain Lion
    All 3 of these microphones/headsets work fine with my 2013 Macbook Air running Mavericks
    In this other thread, several people are reporting similar issues with the iMac 2013 and Mavericks. At least two people did not have the issue when the iMac 2013 was running Mountain Lion. This of course suggests the issue is the combination of the iMac 2013 and Mavericks.

  • Problems with games server and client

    Hi! I am making an MMORPG game and I have problems with the server and client connection.
    I can connect to the server, but when a second player does, the server console tells me this:
    java.net.SocketException: Connection reset
    After that, all clients disconnect.
    Which is the problem?
    How can I solve it?
    Thank you so much

    Here is how my sever work. I took some of this code from a book called Killer Programming Games in Java. If you google for it, you will find it for sure.
    TourGroup tg = new TourGroup(); // this object stores information about all clients connected to the server
        try {
          ServerSocket serverSock = new ServerSocket(PORT);
          Socket clientSock;
          while (true) {
            System.out.println("Waiting for a client...");
            clientSock = serverSock.accept();
            new TourServerHandler(clientSock, tg).start(); // this is the thread that monitors each client
        catch(Exception e)
        {  System.out.println(e);  }
      } This is some code of TourServerHandler
    public TourServerHandler(Socket s, TourGroup tg)
        this.tg = tg;
        clientSock = s;
        name= "?";
        cliAddr = clientSock.getInetAddress().getHostAddress();
        port = clientSock.getPort();
        System.out.println("Client connection from (" +
                     cliAddr + ", " + port + ")");
    public void run()
      // process messages from the client
        try {
          // Get I/O streams from the socket
          BufferedReader in  = new BufferedReader(
       new InputStreamReader( clientSock.getInputStream() ) );
          PrintWriter out =
    new PrintWriter( clientSock.getOutputStream(), true );  
    // and here goes the rest... The TourServerHandler thread uses this code to send messages:
    tg.broadcast(msg); tg.broadcast works like this:
    synchronized public void broadcast(String cliAddr, int port, String msg)
      // broadcast to everyone but original msg sender
        TouristInfo c; // this object stores info about the client
        for(int i=0; i < tourPeople.size(); i++) {
          c = (TouristInfo) tourPeople.get(i);
            c.sendMessage(msg);
      } This is the error part
    public void sendMessage(String msg)
      PrintWriter out;  
        out.println(msg);  
          System.out.println("OK");
      } I can't find any error but I still get that Connection reset exception...

  • Hdmi audio problem

    Hi,
     Newbie here with a question.
    I can't get audio anymore from my hdmi input. So I switched to regular rca input and it works, but of course no HD available.
    So I'm going to go buy a new hdmi cable, but from problems in the past, I suspect the TV hdmi circuit may have an audio issue.
    If that becomes the case, how can I hook up my fios hd dvr to the tv so that I can get HD ?
    I know nothing about component video, I see there is a component video output on the fios dvr, and I also have a component input on my tv.
    If i hook up cables to those, will I get HD and sound ?
    Any ideas ?
    Thanks Much.
    Floyd

    Yes, you can use the component connections for the video, and the audio connections for the sound, and you will receive an HD picture.
    I would doubt that the HDMI cable would fail. Before you do anything else, turn off the STB, remove the power plug, wait 30 seconds, plug it back in, turn it on, and see if you get any audio. The Motorola STBs that Verizon use occasionally get themselves kinda confused in a number of areas, and removing the power frequently fixes it (until something gets it confused again...).
    If removing the power doesn't work, do you have a second HD TV that you could hook up to the existing STB and cable? If that works it isn't the cable, its the first TV - just trying to make sure the cable is really the culprit. Or of course it could be the STB, in which case you need to contact Verizon for a replacement.
    If you wind up needing to get a new HDMI cable, don't go buy one of those over-priced things at places like Best Buy or Circuit City, unless you just have to have it today. Try www.monoprice.com or one of the other web sellers of HDMI cables, you can usually get one for 10% to 25% of the cost at one of the big box stores, and it will work just as well.
    And finally, if you hook up the component and sound connections, you may find that you are perfectly satisfied with the results, and decide to just leave it that way. Not everyone agrees that HDMI is better than component, some feel just the opposite.

    As Jim points out, CS3 was the first Vista-certified version, though many did get PrPro 2.0 to run on it.
    Now, if PrPro 1.5 is running otherwise, you might have some luck with http://www.asio4all.com You'll need to download this freeware, install it, and then point PrPro to it in Edit>Preferences>Audio Hardware>Asio Settings for input and output.

  • Audio problems with the Radeon HD 5870

    Hello and sorry for my english, it's not my native language.
    I own an early 2009 Mac Pro 2.66 GHz Quad Core (4.1), with OSX 10.8.5, 12 Gb RAM, 512 Gb SSD and Ati Radeon HD 4870 (512 Mb).
    I found a good offer for an used original Ati Radeon HD 5870 Mac (1 Gb), so i got it and put it into my Mac Pro  (PCI slot 1, both power cables connected and MDP to HDMI cable, as was previously the 4870).
    My monitor is a Philips LED TV-Monitor 221TE  21,6".
    Besides the fact that i had to recalibrate the monitor (the graphic at first was too "sharp"), i lost the audio from integrated speakers of the monitor (the line-out port is selected, as previously was, in system preferences --> audio), it works only with integrated speaker of Mac Pro.
    The monitor is connected with audio cable to the line-out of Mac Pro (i know that my 2009 Mac Pro supply only video signals over Mini DisplayPort).
    If i put back the 4870 with same connections, the audio is back from line-out...
    If i connect an external speaker to the line-out, it works...
    So it's not the line-out to be faulty.
    Just to try and waste time, i repaired permissions, reset PRAM, installed and updated OSX to 10.9.5, but nothing worked...
    Any idea would be appreciated, thank you.

    Thank you all for the answers,
    @voidcom:  yes, i'm pretty sure it's a genuine Apple Card, not only because assured from the seller, but also because it has 2 MiniDisplayPorts (which, in my knowledge, are present in genuine Apple cards only, PC cards usually have standard HDMI ports).
    I'm sure i plugged the audio cable into the right port (the one with the speaker symbol);  in my first installation of the card i left it untouched, but the audio worked with the 4870 and not with 5870.
    If i plug an headphone in the rear or in the front, i can hear sound... it seems that the installation of the 5870 blocked audio output towards my monitor only... that's the strange thing.
    @Grant Bennet-Alder: yes, i fiddled with the controls in System Preferences > Sound,  was the first thing i did, but only internal speaker works.
    The only thing i didn't try, it's the SMC reset, i'll try it ASAP, thank you.
    @DPart:  i found the same information searching the web, only Mac Pro 5.1 or flashed 4.1 to 5.1 can output audio via HDMI, thank you anyway.
    However, that's not my case... i don't want audio output via HDMI (would be nice, but not essential for me), the installation of the 5870 blocked audio output towards my LED monitor only... with the 4870 worked perfectly instead.
    Yes, under PCI section i found the 5870 twice, the first with driver loaded, the second one not.
    I searched information about this "ATY,LangurParent" but i found nothing useful:

  • Audio problems with CHS 435

    Hello all, I'm having audio problems with my FiOS set top box. When I start to change channels I lose audio and can't get it back unless I turn the TV off/on or I change the HDMI source on my TV . Seems after changing a couple of channels the problem happens. I've tried the in home agent auto correct, and different HDMI cables. I have a Westinghouse TV and I'll try a firmware update for the TV and see if that fixes it. Any fix for this and the possibility that it might be the set top box ? I just got FiOS and all is going well besides this issue. Seems that the other STB that are model # 335 aren't having this problem.

    Some TVs have had issues with the HDMI handshake and the Audio. You may be required to use the separate bulkier HD Component cables with separate audio cables. Or try it as a solution on that TV.
    I have CHS 435 DVR on a Samsung, and 2 CHS 335s on different model Vizio TVs, all with HDMI, and no issues. Others have reported different issues. I did a search here with the following results. Perhaps this information will help.
