Problem with sound in rented itunes series on mac mini (2010) hdmi

Hello,
I just bought the new mac mini with HDMI. It is connected via HDMI to my receiver Denon AVR 3310. The receiver shows that it has "multi channel in" on the display.
I made all the configurations so that i can watch dvd an the mac mini. When i play a movie with Dolby Digital the receiver does show that on the display and playback is possible without any problems. All my 5.1 speakers play sound.
The big problem is with iTunes. When I want to watch rented series from iTunes Store, for example Dr. House, only 2 speakers of my 5.1 are used. And when I change to surround in iTunes I can only hear static noise.
What is the problem? What is wrong with iTunes?
Thanks in advance

I am having the same issue.
I have a Panasonic TH-50PX60U, and a Yamaha RX-V2065. The Mini is plugged into the Yamaha via HDMI and Yamaha to TV via HDMI.
Problem: Just to clarify I do NOT have a video problem. That part seems to be working fine, my problem is with audio. When ever I switch inputs on the receiver or turn the system off (not the Mini, that always stays on) the audio defaults back to the internal speaker in the Mini. I have to go into system settings and change it back to the HDMI audio out. This is super frustrating. I'm sorry if I posted this in the wrong area, but it's the only thread that looked like it might have an answer. Thanks!

Out of Frequency Problem with Apple Multiple Scan 720 Display and Mac mini

If a resolution with a horizontal and/or vertical frequency not compatible with your display, in this case an Apple Multiple Scan 720 Display, is selected in the Display preference pane of the Mac OS X 10.4.10 system running on a Mac mini (Early '06), you will recieve a message on your screen about being "out of frequency" and the power management feature will shut down and restart your display repeatedly. The following solution should restore your display to proper function. It may apply to other displays and Macintoshes running Mac OS X, but it has only been tested specially on this setup.
1. Shut down the Mac mini with the power button (press and hold for 5 seconds)
2. Start the computer up with the Mac mini Mac OS X Install Disc 1 (press the power button, insert the disc, hold the C key down until the progress bar starts up)
3. Click on the language, then select Utilities > Terminal...
4. Type "cd /" and return
5. Type "cd Volumes" and return
6. Type "cd your hard drive name" and return (you need to enclose the hard drive name in double quotes if more than one word)
7. Type "cd Library" and return
8. Type "cd Preferences" and return
9. Type "rm com.apple.windowserver.plist" and return
10. Type "exit" and return
11. Quit Terminal
12. Select Utilities > Startup Disc...
13. Select the OS on the hard drive and click on Restart button, holding down the Shift key until the progress bar starts.
14. Log in to the account that had the display problem in Safe Boot mode
15. In System Preferences select Display, select a resolution with the appropriate frequency, 60 Hz should be fine, then close System Preferences
16. Restart the computer, log in to the account normally, and the display should be functioning properly.
DO NOT SELECT AN INAPPROPRIATE RESOLUTION/FREQUENCY FOR YOUR DISPLAY IN THE DISPLAY PREFERENCE PANE! BE AFRAID, BE VERY AFRAID!

Mac mini (Early '06) Mac OS X (10.4.10) Apple Multiple Scan 720 Display

Just a correction and an elaboration:
It should be Startup Disk... with a k, not a c.
Both the resolution and the frequency must be appropriate for your display to work properly. Check your documentation or the manual information available on your display for the appropriate resolutions/frequencies. Evidently the Apple Multiple Scan 720 Display is considered so old that no allowance was made for it in the Display preference pane of Mac OS X 10.4.10.

Issues with HD video in iTunes and 2012 mac mini

Hi guys, so i just received my 2012 mac mini. I have connected 2x Dell U2410 displays, one via DVI to DVI-HDMI (supplied DVI to hdmi converter) and then the other display via DVI to Displayport then to Dispayport to mini displayport converter.
Whenever i try and buy an HD video in itunes i get the following message.
"This cannot be played in HD on this computer.
You must rent and watch the HD version on an HD-compatible device, or you can rent the SD version and watch it on this computer"
Why would i be getting this message?
Thanks,
Dani

I have attached an image of the resolutions

Problems with installing SL Server on pre installed Mac Mini

The problem is, that after choosing the HDD in the installation procedure, the system says that installed OSX is newer then the one I'm trying to install and that I should choose other HDD!
What should I do?

Hi,
start up from cd, start installation, choose "disk utility" from the menu bar, erase hd (journaled),
after this you can install OSX server.
Good luck,

HT1657 I am having problems with sound in my rental movies

We rent movies all the time but lately we are having problems with sound for our movie rentals. We watch the first half hour without a problem than the voice is choppy all the time. Sometimes it is good for five minutes than noting for a while. We have tried everything we could think of with no avail. I could see one movie but the last 5 or so have been the same. Done trying we need to fix this! Help! Any ideas?

First try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears. Try again to see if the problem persists.
If you still have the same issue, it's possible that something is lodged in the earphone jack. This can cause the iPad to think earphones are plugged in when they are not. Use a vacuum to try to suck any dust, lint or other foreign matter from the jack. If that still doesn't work, try CAREULLY using a toothpick.

is this a rental from the Apple TV or one you have in iTunes. If from the Apple TV try restarting the Apple TV, if from iTunes, try de/re-authorising your account.

Problems with some songs in iTunes (and my iPod)

Hi,
I do not know whether this is the right category for my problem, but I did not find a suitable one.
I have problems with some songs in iTunes. They do not sound right. It is hard to me to describe my problem in English (thanks to apple's "great" support...I was not able to contact them personally except by phone). The songs "hang", they sound like someone reels (?) it. The problem does not only appear with iTunes but also with my iPod nano first generation.
My godmother brang me CDs where that problems appear (but not the whole CDs have that problem, only a few songs) from the USA - I live in Germany. Maybe that is cause of the error. But I cannot imagine that, because CDs there and here have the same format and I have several CDs from the US where is no problem at all. I am absolutely sure that the CDs are originals and not a copy, by the way.
Maybe you can help me, it would be great!
Thanks,
Jule

Yes, I thought that's what Restore should do, but the problems remain. Hmmm, the out of order 'album's' songlist is notated 1 of 8, 2 of 8, 3 of 8... I'll try 01, 02...
Probably a good idea.
The other album is running through the list of songs like fast-forward, but not playing the songs. Then, iPod locks up.
Do these same tracks play okay in iTunes? What is the original source for these tracks? Were they downloads from the iTunes Store or imported from outside of iTunes? What format are they encoded in and at what bitrate?

Any problems with compatibility of update iTunes with OSX 10.7.5

Has anyone noticed any problems with compatibility of updated iTunes with OSX 10.7.5?

Okay. At the beginning of this discussion I was on 6.0.1. However, I responded to an update since then and since I didn't realize 6.0.2 wasn't compatible with Lion I responded and updated.
Now, with your message, a clean 6.0.1 installation sounds like a great idea. However, I've downloaded it from your link and when I install just from the install program, I still have an "About Safari" showing 6.0.2. I then tried setting up a separate Safari folder in the Applications folder and installed into that. I only got some Safari-associated folders and items there but no new Safari app icon... and the Safari 6.0.2 icon (which I hadn't gotten rid of since I don't want to lose my bookmarks, etc... want to transfer those once the 6.0.1 is there) is still there.
All the hanging-up problems are still happening, btw... and probably even worse. Right now I'm using Camino, a good browser but Safari has features I'd like to get back to... got Firefox, too, and like it, but I've got it set up for other family members to use and Safari here for me.
Any help on how to get 6.0.1 installed again without losing bookmarks greatly appreciated.

Problems with Mail, Safari and iTunes after updating to 10.5.6

Hi all,
after installing 10.5.6 I have problems with Mail, Safari and iTunes.
The time to open mails, websides and iTunes store is increasing dramatically since the update. If I open a webside parallel with Safari and Firefox, Safari needs minimum 15 times longer to open the complete side. Mails containing HTML-code also needs a long time to be opened. Tha same Problem with iTunes store. Connecting to the Store costs at least 30 - 40 seconds. And unfortunately for every iTunes store side I open. Its terrible
Any idea or workaroung to solve that problem?
Regards
Michael

First, run Disk Utility and repair permissions and then restart.
I installed the 10.5.6 Combo update. Sometimes things get "lost in the translation" when you use Software Update depending on your installation. Perhaps you can download 10.5.6 Combo from the website and install it from your desktop.

[SOLVED]Problem with sound in HDMI

Hello good society of Arch
Now I have problems with sound from HDMI. I use Arch as an tvPc, wasting movies and tv shows on it. I use ALSA and it works well, except of a few files that I have, then there is picture but sound is either twisted or not played at all. It does not matter whether I use vlc or mplayer, I'm experiencing the same problem.
I have not found anything about this with google, other problems have been either hdmi sound working or not, not like it is with me, sometimes it works and sometimes it don't.
I know that the files are ok, I can play them in anther pc I have (also using Arch on that pc).
Does anybody know what the problem might be? What do I have to look at to find out what the problem is? This have been like this for some time now, but I haven't looked into it before, because I don't use TV that muts, but the wife does and when she stats blaming Arch, I have too do something about it.
I have never encountered problem with Arch that i cant solve by using this forum and google
Thanks

I will look at this when i come home from work, thanks.
