Audio stream to tv from MacBook

I'm using a MacBook Pro 8.2 and want to stream video to à Sony Bravia TV. I've connected them with à cable from the Thunderbolt port to the HDMI port on the TV. I get the video images but no sound. Is there à way to do this or do I need à separate audio cable?

There is great risk of confusion since I am seeing the words in Swedish and it is sometimes difficult to tell what the translation should be, but here goes:
In the System Report there is only one topic with the word sound: "Sound (built-in)"
Under that topic it says "Intel HD Sound" and I can choose a nummer of options, but only one for "Speakers" and it says "Connection: internal"
There is also an option for "HDMI/DisplayPort" which says "Connection: screen" (or monitor)

  • How can i stream media wirelessly from macbook pro ? video...

    how can i stream media wirelessly from macbook pro mountain lion to dynex bluray player or insignia mhl tv? i also have a time capsule...

    most reliable method found is get an AppleTV hooked to TV, and get program called BEAMER (free trial or $15 purchase application).     Lots of programs CAN stream to TV via wifi, but many of them get audio syncing wrong/bad.   Best addition upgrade to any Apple PC or laptop isnt internal, but the AppleTV     BEAMER app is the best Apple/Mac app out there to me, ...  Ive got 7 Terabytes of Videos, ...the Beamer app takes in any video format, its just incredible.

  • AirPlay Audio Does Not Stream to ATV from MacBook Pro

    For some reason, AirPlay will occasionally strop streaming audio to the Apple TV, usually after sleep. This has been a problem from day one, and I expected an update to fix it, but it's still a problem.
    It goes like this:
    I select Apple TV from the menu bar
    The screen mirrors to the Apple TV
    I start playing a video, but the audio plays through the MacBook speakers
    I try to switch the audio via system prefs, but while it shows the Apple TV/AirPlay, but I am unable to select it.
    I then have to restart my Mac to get audio streaming over AirPlay
    So what's going on here?
    My MacBook is the mid-2011 13" model maxed out with 8GB RAM.
    Is it an Apple TV problem? Is it the MacBook Pro? Or is this a bug for AirPlay under mountain Lion?

    Hey Harry,
    I was able to get rid of the skipping with apple's help.  In my case it was the router... so I just disconnected the coaxial and power cable for like 1 min and plugged it back in and it started to work perfectly again.  The tech said that if it continued to be an issue I should get a new router from the ISP.  Hope this helps!  Let me know if you need any other info.

    You can't, the Apple TV is very much a device to replace DVD's.

  • Incredibly slow streaming of video from macbook pro to apple tv

    Hi.  We purchased an apple tv 3rd generation connected to wifi.  our internet runs about 7mb/sec.  no problem streaming movies purchased on itunes through apple tv but ridiculously slow streaming mp4 through itunes to apple tv over macbook.  when i say ridiculously, not even sure if it works... just seems to think about it.   home sharing is enabled on both devices.  i know they are communicating because i can play my music library on the tv (which is also pretty slow).  am i missing something? 

    Home sharing is done over the local network so internet speed wouldn't play a factor. I would be inclined to think it is specific to the videos you are trying to share.
    Have you made sure they are compatible with the Apple TV?
    H.264 video up to 1080p, 30 frames per second, High or Main Profile level 4.0 or lower, Baseline profile level 3.0 or lower with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats
    MPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4 and .mov file formats
    Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format

  • Possible to stream video podcast from MacBook to Apple TV?

    I am trying to stream podcasts from iTunes on my Mac Book Pro to my (lastgen) Apple TV. I am able to use it as speakers and play audio podcasts, but so far no video.

  • Sound loss streaming to atv2 from Macbook Pro

    Hi all, im hoping someone can help.
    I have various movies on my macbook pro running OS X 10.6.8 of various sizes, it seems that anything under 1gig in size streams to my ATV2 fine, sound and picture, but anything over 1gig the picture streams fine but the sound just buzzes loudly.  I have BT infinity with the standard router and modem they give, streaming wirelessly from the macbook to the ATV2, the ATV is hooked up to the internet via ethernet.
    Has anyone come across this?  Im hoping its a quick fix and just some setting that needs changing.  Ive searched the net various times but they just seem to deal with trying to stream dolby sound or picture issues.
    Thanks in advance for any guidance!

    No one??

  • Stream iTunes Match from Macbook Air?

    I love how iTunes match streams right to my iPhone, so I can see all of my media without having it actually on my phone! Brilliant. However, is there a way to do thisa on my Macbook Air and iPad? Without having to download all of the library onto the device(s)?

    On your Macbook Air, yes, you can stream from iTunes Match without downloading the songs. All you have to do is go to Store > Turn On iTunes Match in iTunes, sign in with your account and password, and your library will be populated by the list of music that's in your iTunes Match. This doesn't actually copy all of the music onto your local hard drive, and you can stream it.
    On your iPad, yes and no. You can play all of your iTunes Match music on it, but just like the iPhone, it doesn't technically "stream." When you tap on a song to listen to it, it will actually download it to your device in the background. So the songs will take up space, but if you want you can delete them when you're done listening by swiping to the right and pressing Delete on each song (or album, or artist).

  • Streaming HD video from MacBook/iPad to Apple TV?

    Hey, I'm thinking of buying an Apple TV and Airplay Express so I can stream videos from my Mac to my TV to watch. I'm just wondering what the quality is like, can I stream full HD content, like from a Blu Ray and the quality stay the same? Or does it buffer, pre-buffer or anything like that?
    Thanks

    forget blu-ray... blu-ray is a physical disc.
    any content you want to play on the appletv must be no greater than 720p.
    if you already have blu-ray content then stick with what you have already, you'll only be losing quality by doing what you suggested.

  • Audio stream slowdown/sync with separate video?

    Is there an easy way to time shift an audio stream in Leopard (from Internet radio) so it matches a TV broadcast? The TV signal is much slower, and I'd rather listen to the radio announcers. This is for a remote TV broadcast that I'm pulling in over KU satellite.
    Is there an audio units add-in or something, or a currently available application that can do this?

    Audio Hijack Pro
    <http://www.rogueamoeba.com/audiohijackpro/>
    In the "Input" tab select the application you use for internet radio and click the "Hijack" button. Make sure the "Mute" button is off.
    In the "Effects" tab add AudioUnit Effect > Apple > AUDelay
    Se its "dry/wet mix" slider to 100%
    It will delay up to 2 seconds. If you need more delay, you can use more than of copy of the effect.

  • How can i stream video and audio from macbook air to my tv?

    how can i stream video and audio from macbook air to my tv?

    Wirelessly: you need an AirPlay - enabled device such as an AppleTV.
    Wired: if your TV has an HDMI port, you need a Thunderbolt to HDMI adapter such as this one:
    Mini DisplayPort to HDMI® Adapter w/ Audio Support
    If your TV does not have an HDMI port you will need a converter that will convert HDMI input to whatever input your TV requires.

  • Audio via ethernet from MacBook

    I’m a newbie--just switching to Mac from Windows.
    I can’t claim to be a true audiophile, but I have tendencies in that direction. I’m in the process of storing a thousand CDs in Apple LossLess, and have a pretty good stereo.
    My new MacBook will be in the back of my house in my office, connected to a hardwired LAN. The LAN has an ethernet connection right where my stereo is. I have an NAD integrated amp with no optical/digital input. I want to stream audio from the MacBook to the stereo. I’d like to leave the MacBook where it is, and have something like an iPhone or iPad as a controller where my stereo is.
    Can I just plug in an Airport Express to the Ethernet where my stereo is? Will it stream audio from my MacBook to the stereo over the Ethernet? Or will it stream it wirelessly? Do I care? (Shouldn’t an Ethernet connection be a lot higher quality than wireless?)
    Is there a better way to get audio from the MacBook to the stereo via Ethernet—even if it requires a non-Mac solution?

    Hello WLohe. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    If your goal is to use iTunes on your MacBook as the audio source of ALAC files, then they could be streamed over Ethernet. iTunes uses AirTunes for audio streaming. AirTunes can be transmitted over wire or wireless. At the NAD end, you would need either an AirPort Express Base Station (AX) or Apple TV, to receive the AirTunes streams. In turn, these devices would offer digital optical or analog outputs to the NAD.
    If however, your goal is to stream these files outside of iTunes, then you would need a different solution. One such solution is to run a DLNA media server on the MacBook, and then, stream media to a DLNA client ... like an Xbox 360. In this case an AirPort Express would not be necessary.

  • Hello. I've Apple TV 3rd gen and MacBook Pro 2013 all with latest updates. AirPlay works fine till I don't start streaming videos from YouTube. After that AirPlay icon from MacBook menu bar simply disappears. Could some help. I'm using 2 Mbps Internet

    Hello. I've Apple TV 3rd gen and MacBook Pro 2013 all with latest updates. AirPlay works fine till I don't start streaming videos from YouTube. After that AirPlay icon from MacBook menu bar simply disappears. Could some help. I'm using 2 Mbps internet connection.

    Same issue here- I can airplay my amazon prime library just fine from my iphone 5 but on my macbook- (mavericks, 15 inch 2013 retina with quad core i7, nvidia 650 M and SSD) it just sputters and lags.
    I have noticed web video is considerably worse than local content, giving me pauses of up to 2 or 3 seconds in which video stops but audio continues in the amazon player. Youku video, however, seems relatively stable. Our subscription speed is 25 mbps, so that should be plenty to stream SD video from Amazon and doesn't account for why it would be nice and stable from the iphone, but not the mbp.
    Playing light, locally hosted steam sidescrollers  like Limbo is better but gives periodic drops in framerate on the Tv. when mirroring the framerate remains steady on the MBP screen.
    Games airplayed from my iphone seem relatively stable, though with a noticably lower framerate on the TV than on the phone.
    It seems these issues have abated considerably since yesterday's Apple TV update, but are still curious nonetheless and I'm not sure that the update yesterday was specifically meant to address those issues or if I'm just getting a time with less network interference now.
    Comcast recently installed a new router/modem/phone combo, replacing our old separate modem and router setup. I'm going to test if putting the network on a different channel helps.

  • How can I get netflix streaming audio, the video is fine but the audio coming through is from the TV(dish)

    how can I get netflix streaming audio, the video is fine but the audio coming through is from the TV(dish)

    It's exactly as I stated. Whenever I try to drag these kinds of loops (ESX24 / software instrument loops? the ones marked in green with the white music note next to them) from the loop browser into the timeline a message comes up saying Audio Not Found for that loop.  And a new track is created automatically when loops are dragged into the timeline, so I'm not creating some other random / synth instrument track so I'm not sure  what the deal is... But perhaps I'll try creating a software instrument track first and then drag the loop into that track and see what happens - maybe there's something with the default settings that automatically creates audio tracks whenever loops are imported?

  • Can I stream a movie from my Macbook to my Apple TV on one display, and still use my Macbook for other things?

    I have a Macbook Pro and an Apple TV. What I'd like to do is stream a movie from my CinemaNow Account to my television by using my Apple TV and my Macbook. I know that I can do this my using the mirroring feature, however then I can no longer use my Macbook for anything else because my TV will only display what is on the screen of my Macbook. Now with this is mind, what then is the point of having multiple displays through the use of my Apple TV, if only one display can be used at a time unless they both show the same image? Or is there a way for me to be able to stream the movie to my TV and still use my Macbook for other purposes (multi-tasking)? 

    To enable a second display over AirPlay, you first need to be connected to the same network as your Apple TV. Next, open System Preferences > Displays, and select your Apple TV from the “AirPlay Display” drop-down menu.
    Once you do this, your display may flash as the second display connection is acquired, and the Apple TV takes over as the second display. If the displays are mirrored, then you can correct this by opening the “Arrangement” tab in System Preferences > Displays, and ensuring that the “Mirror Displays” checkbox is unchecked.
    In this same “Arrangement” tab, you can move the displays around in the pane to ensure that they're positioned correctly, relative to your physical space (usually side-by-side, or top-down). The primary display here is denoted here by the Menu bar on the display. The arrangement helps with being able to drag windows from one display to the next: if your secondary display is arranged to be to the right of your primary one, for example, you can drag things to it through the right side of your primarcy screen.
