Audio out options question - HDMI + component?

I have looked thru the manual and forums, but have not seen the answer to my question.
If I hook an ATV to my TV with HDMI, and also use the Right and Left (red and white component) audio out cables to my stereo (which does not have TOS link digital audio capability), will I get sound delivered to BOTH units at the same time? Basically, I'd like sound to go to my TV and my stereo.
I see in the ATV manual that it is possible to use HDMI and digital audio out. DVI video and component audio out, but I need HDMI video/audio AND component audio out.

The easiest way to accomplish this is to use the HDMI cable from the ATV to the TV and then export the sound from the TV with with either RCA, toslink, or digital audio out cables to your stereo. That is what I do at home. I have a DVR cable box, DVD player, and PS3 Blue Ray player and a HD video camera all hooked up via HDMI to a HDMI hub to the TV and then I can switch the stereo from either the TV audio out (all of the above) or the airport express where I stream music to the Stereo. There is no doubt that the sound quality from the BR HDMI cable of the PS3 has a superior sound.
A tech at curcuit city told me there is a difference in sound between, a expensive Monster HDMI cable and the less expensive cables now available on line, but I have not tried a A/B comparison yet, but am planing to do so. $50-60$ vrs. a few dollars on line aftermarket.
Hope this helps.

  • No HDMI Audio Out Option on Laptop, Brand New HP Envy 17

    I am trying to watch youtube and other streaming video on my television. I have a receiver that has 5 hdmi in that I use to run all my devices. When I plug in my HDMI cord the video plays on my tv but no audio, and I hear the external device disconnect sound. I opened device manager and see an error above hi definition audo device under sound. I am quite frustrated with trying to diagnose this. HP Support has updated the bios and poked around and pretty much shrugged and said we dont know. I have updated the audio driver and no luck there either. On my wifes 8 year old laptop all you do is right click on the white speaker and select hdmi out.
    Cliffs:
    Plug in HDMI cord to brand new laptop, video plays on TV no Audio, attempted to install new driver and hp updated the bios and still no luck.

    Objective:
    • Connect my macmini with audio support to the HDMI port on the tv.
    Question:
    • Is there an adapter that takes the audio out and the DVI connector combines it into an HDMI connection so that I can watch and listen to my macmini on the tv?

  • Toshiba 32C120u Audio Out feature question

    Do the RCA jack audio out connections send a plain line-out audio signal that is not subject to the TV volume control?
    I need a tv to use with some wireless headphones but also need the speakers to work normally for the rest of the family.

    RCA out is fixed  line level you can still use speakers normally at the same time 

  • No HDMI audio out option, only Airplay

    Hi everyone,
    Hoping to get some enlightenment here as I am at my wits end.   Here's my setup:
    Macbook Pro (mid 2011 era)
    Belkin MDP to HDMI converter
    Monoprice HDMI cable to Denon AV-1912 receiver
    Prior to upgrading to Mavericks and numerous updates to my Apple TV, I was able to plug in to my Denon receiver via HDMI and get display and sound options pop up through System Preferences, no problem.  Everything worked beautifully.   So there is no issue with my sound card not supporting HDMI.
    Now, whenever I try to connect through HDMI, I can only get the display to work.  Trying to bypass the internal speakers through the Sound panel in System Preferences yields no results.  My Denon receiver only shows up in the Sound Output panel as an Airplay option, not as HDMI.  When I select it as Airplay, the receiver automatically switches to the Airplay (Internet Radio) source and kills the display connection it had made with HDMI.
    I can't for the life of me figure out how to either:
    a) Disable Airplay in my Denon receiver OR more apropos to this forum,
    b) Get HDMI restored as an option in my Sound Output preferences.
    Any suggestions welcomed!
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    I have the same issue. Setup is:
    -- mid-2012 MBP (non-retina) running 10.8.5 (including the very latest supplemental 10.8.5 which was supposed to fix a different issue with an HDMI audio connection not working after a Mac's wakeup from sleep).
    -- MBP connected to a Harman Kardon BDS 577 AV receiver's HDMI input (this is a 5.1 receiver, connected to 5.1 speakers).
    -- MBP and receiver connected via PNY mini-DP-to-HDMI adapter, which both its Amazon description & review explicitly say supports passthrough audio on Macs, and a high quality AmazonBasics HDMI cable (ditto).
    -- The receiver's HDMI output is connected to an Epson EH-TW3200 projector's HDMI input (projector is Euro version of the US Epson 8345; it has no audio whatsoever).
    -- The Epson is set to mirror the MBP display, and the MBP's internal display resolution is set to match the Epson's (1080p), which appears as "Epson PJ" in the menubar's Displays pulldown.
    1) The issue we're having here is very clearly different from the one with the HDMI connection not working after wakeup (numerous thread about it in Apple Discussions & other forums), since there the HDMI option for sound output device is available (in the Sound Preferences panel, the equiv. menu-bar shortcut and in Audio MIDI Setup and VLC Audio --> Audio Device submenu), but didn't work properly after wakeup.
    2) With our issue, when everything is connected but the projector is turned off, sound works fine. I have the option to select HDMI in all the aforementioned locations (the device is called "HDMI TV"), and, when chosen, sound is properly output via the AV receiver according to the source material (5.1 with both DTS and AC3 encodings work fine, as does stereo).
    3) As soon as the projector is turned on, video appears fine as expected on the projector, mirroring the MBP's screen, but the HDMI option disappears from all above lists of sound output devices. If I was in the middle of a movie on VLC, audio switches to the builtin speakers on the MBP.
    4) Trying to trick the sytem by defining a new audio aggregate device in Audio MIDI Setup when the projector is off,  having it include the HDMI device, and then trying to choose it when the projector is on doesn't work -- the aggregate device is grayed out and can't be chosen.
    5)  TjoffenF's solution above doesn't help me: For me VLC behaves exactly like the rest of the system, so using it doesn't help. I tried several versions of VLC, including old  (1.1.2) & new (2.0.9, 2.1.4).
    6) Jackmo69's solution doesn't work for me either: The order the various components are switched on and/or connected doesn't matter. As soon as the projector is on, HDMI audio option simply disappears and the MBP stops using the HDMI port for audio.
    7) Generally, this seems to be a problem with something called EDID. This is the protocol which HDMI and DVI devices use to tell each other about their capabilities (resolution, audio supported, etc.). Somehow the Mac thinks the HDMI device it is attached to has no audio at all, so it falls back to its internal speakers. I initially thought the problem was with my AV receiver  -- whether or not the projector is turned on, it should report its own EDID, not the projector's, so I shouldn't have seen the "Epson PJ" option, right?
    8) I contacted the local tech support for Harman Kardon. They hadn't heard of an issue with their receiver, but don't have Macs. From their POV, which sounded reasonable, if the issue occured with a PC laptop, they'd agree that their equipment was the culprit. They lent me a a Windows7 laptop with a builtin HDMI port (Dell Studio 1558) for a week to test.
    I performed hours of experiments with  it, replacing the MBP with the Dell, all other things in the setup being identical with the exception of the PNY adapter (same AV receiver, same projector, same cables, same VLC version, same source files).
    9) The result:
    With the Dell, all the source files output audio via HDMI to the receiver with no issues, and turning the projector on or off has no effect on the audio. To me, this proves that the issue is the Mac, probably an HDMI driver issue. AFAIK the PNY & similar adapter are simple mechanical adapters (the actual video signals are identical), so given it transmits audio fine from the MBP (when the projector is off) I don't see how the adapter could be the problem (I don't own a TV, so couldn't test with one).
    10) Extensive googling yielded a couple other people with similar problems using various Macs (earlier but still post-2009 MBs and MBPs as well as a Mac mini), projectors and AV receivers. Their solutions were to (a) run TOSLINK audio seperately from the Mac to the receiver (not an option for me, since my receiver accepts TOSLINK only for an audio-only source) or (b) use an EDID emulator device, which spoofs the EDID so the Mac will agree. There was at least one person who had the issue appear after upgrading fromOS X 10.6 to 10.8 (Mac and other components didn't change), which is yet another indication this is a Mac driver issue.
    10) I really don't like the idea of EDID emulators; it's a kludgy solution (needs its own power supply and additional HDMI cable), expensive ($100-$150), and not available locally. Reports on them say they don't always work.
    11) I'm very much ****** at Apple at this point. The only solution I can see right now is to buy a media streamer with HDMI output, to circumvent the problem -- not an ideal solution, since it means adding a middleman, but cheaper and and more likely to work then an EDID emulator. (Incidentally, an Apple TV wouldn''t work for me as a streamer because it supports very few video codecs & file types -- not that I'd be happy to give Apple more money to fix a problem they're reponsible for.)
    If anyone has since found another solution, I'd realy appreciate hearing about it.

  • Yosemite audio out selection question

    I use a Mac mini in my home theater setup.  I have an audio cable connected from the headphone out to an amplifier and an hdmi cable connected from the hdmi out a TV.
    I'm still using 10.6 because I can choose hdmi audio with the cable plugged into the headphone jack.  That option went away in 10.7 or 10.8.  I found out when I updated to Mavericks.  I reinstalled 10.6 for this one reason.
    Has it returned in Yosemite?  If I have a cable plugged in my headphone jack can I select hdmi out for my audio or do I have to unplug the cable from the headphone jack?  That is VERY inconvenenient and why I'm still using 10.6.
    Tracy

    Am I the only one in the world using HDMI with a cable plugged into the headphone jack so I can route audio through one or the other conveniently?

  • Audio Out Options?

    Hello,
    I have a question. I have a 7.1 Surround Sound Speaker set that I used to use with my Windows Based PC which had a Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS sound card. I was wondering if there was a device I could purchase that would allow me to simply play my music over all speaker channels?
    Thank you in advance for your responses!

    We're going to need a little more information about your speakers. What kind of cables do you need to plug in your speakers? Do they have digital optical audio connections? Coaxial digital connections? Three 3.5mm (headphone plug size) connections? If it's the three connections, you may be able to use device.

  • Radeon HDMI audio out defaults to disabled

    A quirk that I've been noticing on my system for a while now is that playing audio via the HDMI cable on my Radeon 5450 doesn't work just after my system has booted (i.e. on the tty console, I do startx manually). Alsamixer doesn't show the output as being muted, and application that play sound (such as aplay /dev/urandom) don't throw an error, but nothing is heard from my monitor's speakers.
    Now, if I run startx and try playing audio in an xterm, it starts working. It continues to work if I quit my X session, up until I reboot my system. I've tried weston as well, because that does DRI modesetting like Xorg does, but sound refuses to work if I run that; no matter what I do, no sound can be heard from the monitor speakers until Xorg has run at least once.
    I figured it must be something that specifically Xorg does when it detects HDMI outputs as it starts up. This would seem to be supported by the fact that it's possible to mute the audio out for a HDMI output connector via an xrandr command, like so:
    xrandr --output HDMI-0 --set audio off
    (and likewise with "on" for enabling again).
    Another interesting pointer is a control shown by
    amixer controls
    when ran against the HDMI audio "card", called "HDMI/DP,pcm=3 Jack". The value of this control is "off" when ran before Xorg is started (i.e. no sound), and "on" after Xorg is run (i.e. sound working). This would suggest that the audio "jack" for this output is not detected, despite the fact that there's a HDMI monitor plugged in.
    Has anyone else encountered a similar situation with the HDMI audio out on radeon cards? And if so, how did you fix it? Is there a tool somewhere that can do what Xorg seems to do without needing to startx (i.e. NOT xrandr)?
    I realize that for most people, audio will only be played after a graphical X session was started anyway (i.e. a music player application), but Xorg won't be the main windowing system forever, and sometimes I like playing music on my console without having to startx (currently using the motherboard's onboard sound until I can fix this), so starting and quitting Xorg just to "unmute" the audio on the HDMI connector seems a long-winded workaround. Plus, it seems quite strange that the kernel can do modesetting on the HDMI display just fine but seems to need a userspace application to tell it when to enable the audio part.
    Any pointers, info or docs as to why this is a thing or how to work around it (without Xorg, please ) would be appreciated.
    (NB: I've tried looking at the Xorg source code, the result was me getting lost in there with a headache >.< )
    Cheers, D^2
    EDIT: A bit more poking around:
    - Changing the DDX (i.e. to something like xf86-video-modesetting) doesn't affect the sound starting to work after Xorg is run; it would seem this rules out anything weird poking done by xf86-video-ati, so it looks more like the sound enabling does happen at the xrandr level.
    - The adformentioned amixer control for jack detection is a read-only property, I can't set it using amixer ("Operation not permitted").

    I did what is said here but audio will not work.

    My alsa-info is http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=0eb0e … 26897b908c
    Notable is the fact that when running
    $ aplay -D plughw:0,3 /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav
    there is no error but the program finishes instantly, rather than being busy for 1.43 seconds which it usually takes to play back that sound.
    speaker-test -D plughw:0,3
    also rapidly progresses to the next tests.
    alsamixer only has one option: "S/PDIF:ON"
    One more info: I also have an on-board sound card, which uses the same module, so I disabled it in BIOS.
    I'd be glad to have my audio back.

  • What happened to the audio out function in the Music app?

    I have had pretty good luck with iOS 7, but the one thing that really bugs me is that they took out the audio out function in the Music app.
    In iOS 6.X's Music app the Now Playing screen had an Audio Out option at the bottom of the screen.  I am sure it was called something else, but you could tap it and choose the audio out channel you wanted to use, iPhone speakers, earphones, bluetooth and I think AirPlay.
    Why would they remove this option?
    I was just wondering if there is another music player that still includes this option. I use Stezza for in the car (Big buttons) and Lagu when I want the old iOS music player interface.  But neither of them include the audio select option.
    I will submit this as feedback on the feedback page to see if they will consider putting it back in.

  • Built in audio out disappeared

    The built-in audio out option has disappeared from the Sound Preferences window and Digital Out is the only option.  So I'm not getting any system sounds, etc.  The volumn icon is greyed out, etc. 
    I've been using Logic and had the audio out set alternatingly for built-in and Presonus Firebox.  When the FB is plugged in it shows up in all the right places.
    The built-in mic still shows up, but the built-in output has vanished.
    Any ideas?
    TIA,
    Daniel

    Since discovering that the problem I was having was with that switch, I've just been careful to plug in the headphones with some firmness and then unplug it with a good quick tug and the switch has been ... switching.. reliably ever since.  I'm not sure what one could do to "fix" that, and fortunately I don't seem to need to try that right now, but if you do need to get into that I'd be interested in any tips..
    Best,

  • Audio out from HDMI port?

    I have connected my TV and Booklet via a standard HDMI cable.  This same HDMI cable works fine with my DVD player.   When I use it with my booklet, only video seems to be sent to the TV via the HDMI cable.  Is the HDMI out port supporting only video, or audio as well? I understand the booklet supports HDMI 1.2, which should support an audio profile, as far as I know.
    Let me know if you have been able to get audio to work over HDMI.
    thanks,
    John

    I found your discussion attempting to find the answer to the same question.
    I won 5 of these things at auction and wanted HDMI to be a selling point
    I researched far and wide and now I think I have the answer now.
    I had to reload the OS and  all the drivers for all 5 units
    I read some of the replies to this topic and with some people saying that they had audio and I didn't, I felt that either I was crazy or someone is not truthful. so i had a thought ,
    after about  the 3rd unit I tried to just try to hook it up to a TV bare without Nokia updated software
    What do you know, it worked.
    So I have come to the conclusion based upon using both units after testing them with and without the update, is with the stock driver provided, you will get the audio from the HDMI port; if you update the software from the updater(which I noticed it says the driver is MANDATORY)
    You will not.
    There is a plus and minus on both occassions
    With the graphics driver update you can scale your video once hook to an HDTV to full 1080p HD; but you wont get any audio (at least for now)
    Without the update you will get the audio out , however you will only get the same native resolution as the netbook 720p
    So contemplate which feature is more important you   and make your choice.
    Higher picture quality(full HD) with the driver yet I need 2 cable  (HDMI AND 2.5 to RCA)
    OR lower  resolution720p but audio as well
    I hope this helps but i see my next challenge for both you and is to see if we can roll back the driver if we want audio over HDMI.

  • Trouble running DVI video and HDMI audio out of 6950

    Twin frozr iii 6950 2gb (X2 crossfire)
    Asus VG236 Monitor
    Windows 7
    MSI P67A-G43 Motherboard
    Yamaha RX-V371 Receiver
    I have two Twin Frozr iii 2gb 6950 cards and am attempting to use the HDMI on the video card solely for 5.1 audio out to my receiver while using video through the DVI jack of the same card directly to my monitor without success.
    -Audio functions if I run the HDMI from the card into my receiver, then out to my Asus VG236 monitor.
     -Audio functions when I run from the card to my receiver then out to my plasma tv.
     -Audio functions if I have the DVI run directly to the Asus VG236 monitor and HDMI to the receiver then plasma tv (only in dual display and the tv must be on for audio to function this way. If I turn the tv off even though the receiver is still on the audio stops working and windows sound lists the 'AMD HDMI Output' as not plugged in).
     -Audio even fuctions when I run DVI to the monitor and HDMI to the receiver, then out to the HDMI port on the same monitor but the monitor will only run at 60hz this way even when DVI is selected on the monitor, as though it defaults to the HDMI when dvi and hdmi are both plugged into the monitor.
    And if i run the hdmi to the receiver "HDMI IN" port without using the "HDMI OUT" port from the receiver to anything, like my tv or monitor, the sound doesn't work and in windows sound the "AMD HDMI Output" is listed as "not plugged in" .
    I purchased this monitor for the true 120hz capabilities, the HDMI on this monitor doesn't support 120hz, the maximum is 60hz. DVI is required to run at 120hz. I don't see any option in windows sound settings or CCC to resolve this.
    I have also tried disabling onboard audio in BIOS with no effect.
    For now i'm running the audio out my MOBO jack through an optical cable to the receiver but optical only supports 2.1 sound.
    Any suggestions you can offer would be appreciated, thank you
     

    bump,
    Anybody?

  • I need to have audio out from HDMI and headphone jack simultaneously

    I need to have audio out from HDMI and headphone jack simultaneously.
    I seem to be able to select one or the other, but not both ? !
    Thanks

    No. You can only use one sound output:
    Why can't I select HDMI audio on my Mac mini?
    If you connect an HDMI display or television to a Mac mini (Mid 2010 or later), you might not be able to select the HDMI audio device (in System Preferences > Sound > Output). This can happen if you also have headphones plugged in to the computer. Unplug the headphones to be able to select HDMI audio.

  • G62-a50sf : (only) audio out over HDMI?

    We have a G62-a50sf notebook at my gf's place that we'd like to use as the source for a (somewhat) audiophile audio set-up.  One possibility to get better-than-headphone-output into a good receiver AND avoid using a separate DAC would be to feed the digital audio output over HDMI to the receiver.
    The question I'm hoping to get an answer to is: will this be possible while retaining video output on the laptop's own screen?
    thanks in advance,
    René

    Sorry, but your Mac doesn't send sound over HDMI, only mid-2010 and later MBP's send sound (and even then some require different adapters).  Yours is a 2009 MBP, so only video will go over the HDMI cable.  You will need to run audio from the audio out to your TV or digital audio out from your optical audio out to your receiver.

  • Question about Audio line-in/optical in/Audio out/optical out

    I have a late 2009 27" iMac (v3.06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo). I note that on Apple's description of the rear ports, what I thought were simply headphone (Audio Out) and microphone (Audio In) jacks are described as:
    1. Headphone/optical digital [S/PDIF] audio out:
    "Line/Headphone output
    "The headphone output is automatically selected for audio output if no external S/PDIF optical digital output device is detected. The headphone output supports a stereo data stream at bit depths of 16, 20, or 24 bits per sample and at sample rates of 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, or 96 kHz. The headphone output volume can be adjusted from 0.0 dB to -64 dB..."
    "The headphone output is automatically selected for audio output if no external S/PDIF optical digital output device is detected. The headphone output supports a stereo data stream at bit depths of 16, 20, or 24 bits per sample and at sample rates of 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, or 96 kHz. The headphone output volume can be adjusted from 0.0 dB to -64 dB."
    and
    2. Audio line-in/optical in:
    "Line input
    "The analog line input operates independently from all other audio input ports and is always available. The line input supports recording at bit depths of 16, 20, or 24 bits per sample and at sample rates of 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, or 96 kHz. Audio recorded from the line input is presented as a stereo data stream. You can adjust the line input gain from -16 dB to +30 dB..."
    "The digital audio input has the following electrical characteristics (nominal specifications), based on input of a 1 kHz sine wave at 0 dBFS input level, 24-bit sample depth, and 44.1 kHz sample rate (unless otherwise specified below):
    FSI – input sample rates: 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, or 96 kHz
    Bits per sample: 16, 20, or 24
    Signal-to-noise ratio (SNR): >130 dB
    Total harmonic distortion + noise (THD+N): <-130 dB (0.0003%)

    While, as an Olde School audiophile guy (62, and I still have vinyl!), I generally understand the gist of all this, I'm not at all hip to what S/PDIF optical digital output and/or digital audio input can do for me. So my questions are:
    1. Can somebody please wise me up to the usage(s) of these optical inputs and outputs on the iMac?
    2. The Apple description says,under "Line/Headphone output":
    "PCM: 16, 20, or 24 bits per sample at sample rates of 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, or 96 kHz
    AC-3: 16 bits per sample at sample rates of 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 88.2 kHz, 96 kHz, 176.4 kHz, or 192 kHz"
    and under "Line input
    "The analog line input operates independently from all other audio input ports and is always available. The line input supports recording at bit depths of 16, 20, or 24 bits per sample and at sample rates of 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, or 96 kHz. Audio recorded from the line input is presented as a stereo data stream. You can adjust the line input gain from -16 dB to +30 dB."
    How -- where -- do I adjust these bit depth and sample rates?
    Thanks for your help!

    Thanks for the info. Turns out there's an even easier way to do it than using the "Audio Midi Setup": through the prefs in the latest (and probably some previous) version of VLC, which is currently Version 1.0.2 Goldeneye (Intel 64bit).
    Now if we could only get full native resolution (or at least 1080p) HDMI input into the Mini-DPs of our 2560 x 1440-capable 27" iMacs and actually have it display something WAY better than 720p (half the resolution of which the 27" iMac is capable) to which Apple limited it, without having to buy a third-party $270.00 HDMI-to Mini-DPP converter and scaler. Call me crazy, but it seems kinda silly to have to pay another $300 to buy a device that will scale the 27" iMac's resolution back up to a measly 1080p, let alone its native 2560 x 1440. But, as the
    As a side note, can anyone tell me -- perhaps the elusive and chimerical, but omniscient and omnipotent "communityhosts" of Apple.com -- why, in my original post in this thread, the phrase "1. Headphone/optical digital S/PDIF audio out" had the acronym "S/PDIF" stricken through, like it was a particularly egregious Anglo-Saxonism? Wikipedia defines the acronym thus: "S/PDIF is a data link layer protocol and a set of physical layer specifications for carrying digital audio signals between devices and components over either optical or electrical cable. The name stands for Sony/Philips Digital Interconnect Format."
    If I have inadvertently broken another arcane, abstruse, and/or inscrutable canon of the rules (http://discussions.apple.com/help.jspa) governing what may or not be asked or said on these avowedly "user-driven" discussions, allow me to beg for forgiveness beforehand, pleading ignorance, and ask that Apple's "community hosts" or administrators would expand upon and make very clear, in their "Apple Discussions Terms of Use," a comprehensive list of terms, subjects, lines of discussion, references to certain items, products, people, policies, etc. that are simply disallowed in the forum.
    It is extremely depressing and frustrating to spend however long it takes -- and it takes ME a long time, as I have a 60-year-ingrained tendency towards verbosity -- to ask and post a question or message, only to have the message never even posted to the forum, but, without any sort of consultation with me so that I may learn from, and correct, my errors, uncaringly consigned to the illimitable void by hands to whom there is no appeal or orison.
    It seems unfair.
