Can I somehow shut off the HDMI audio on Apple tv3?

Hello.
I have an apple tv 3 hat works good.
I also have a amp and speakers, but no hdmi in on the amp.
So to get sound I need to use the HDMI directly to the tv, and the optical out to the amp. This works, but it gives me dual sound to both amp and tv speakers.
Most sound systems seem to be able to disable the hmi sound, even my 2008 samsung can do that. But it eludes me on the apple tv 3. For a fix Iv now disables the speakers on my samsung tv, but this is a pain because I realy do want them when I watch regular tv.
Any ideas how to disable the hmdi sound?

Hehe, I see that.
But on samsungs there is a big mute icon that I cannot seem to disable. So its not a good option

    optic digital port can't be shut off and the sound of speakers not working! what to do?
    this happened after taking out the head-phones. Now even after pressing CMD+ALT+P+R when booting - the sound of booting appeares BUT after the desktop is ready the sound doesn't work and sound buttons show the sign "circle with crossed line"

    If there is a red light visible in the audio output port, the switch id stuck.  Insert the earphone jack a few times.  If that fails to trip the switch, try a toothpick or similar device and jiggle it inside the port.  If that fails, try a shot or two of compressed air.  If still no success, go to a repair facility.

    Other than iMovie, GB always incorporates the audio files into the GB package. So just save or move the GB project to the external drive, and you're done - anything you import, edit or record will be saved to the external drive.

  • Can you shut off the Internet on a iPhone 4s and still use it with a wifi connection ?

    Can you shut off the Internet on a iPhone 4 and then use the phone as normal

    I assume that you're asking if you can shut off cellular data (as no individual can shut off the Internet! )? Yes, you can turn off cellular data and use the phone features (except for MMS which requires cellular data) and access the Interenet via WiFi.

  • QUESTION:  in Adobe Reader 9, i cannot shut off the pale blue color on

    my files.  it appeared one day unwanted and un-announced, like a bum on my doorstep.  i use Skype extensively.  its an extra step to click on the Adobe window to shut off the pale blue color, so i can read the page clearly when my Skype window is open.  i have to do it for every damned page, and it's a pain.  the problem occurs when i'm not on Skype, too.  HELP !!!!!!!!!!!!!!            

    Sorry, I perfectly don't understand your comment/question.  Can you provide a screenshot?  Also, what is your operating system?

  • Shutting off the TV also shuts off ATV.

    I have the latest ATV. It is connected to my Home theater system using HDMI. The TV is connected to the amplifier by HDMI. I want to shut down the TV while the music is streamed from my computer. When I  shut off the TV the ATV also shuts down. Actually it doesn't really shut down, when I turn on the TV the music selection is merely paused. This occurs using Ethernet or WI-FI. It doesn't matter if I use a remote or the power button on the TV. The ATV power connection is on a different outlet. Any clues?

    A sleeping iPod consumes almost no battery. If you'll use it again in a couple of hours, shutting it off might actually drain the battery faster since restarting puts some strain on it as well.
    As for WiFi, shutting that off (as well as the Push feature) will definitely save battery.
    Have a look on this page for further info: http://www.apple.com/batteries/ipods.html
    Hope this helps.

  • EMac Panther - Using external monitor, I want to shut off the main monitor.

    Hello guys and gals. I have an eMac with Panther. I'm using the VGA adapter so I can use a nice LCD TV as my screen. It works great and as you may know, it will only mirror the main screen (both screens show the same thing).
    What I want to do is shut off the eMac Monitor (crt) and only use the external LCD through the VGA Adapter. Is this possible?
    Thanks in advance!
    -Monty

    Try using the Desktop & Screen Saver pane of System Preferences to set a hot corner on the display and using that corner to sleep it. If that doesn't work, it can't be done.

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).

  • How do I shut off the plug in. I using mac OS10.4.11 and I keep getting a bar to update my plugin. The plugin will not work with os10.4.11. Everytime I go to a

    every time I go to a new site a bar is lowered and ask to update my plugin. I am using mac 10.4.11 G4 The new plugin will not work. How do I shut off the plugin update so I don't get this anoying bar ever time I go to a new web page. If there is no way to shut it off, I'll trash Firefox and go back to Safari. This just started and I'm tired of it.

    to turn off the messages about outdated plugins, enter "about:config" into the address bar of the browser, confirm the info dialog, then search for the preference named "plugins.hide_infobar_for_outdated_plugin" & double-click it in order to toggle it to "true".
    please also note that firefox 3.6.28 was the last build that ran on a powerpc, however if you want to use an up-to-date browser based on firefox you can switch to "tenfourfox" - the downside is it doesn't support plugins at all
    [[Firefox no longer works with Mac OS X 10.4 or PowerPC processors]]

        as62467 We appreciate your G3 question! Let's see how we can help. What you are able to adjust is the USB connection mode by going to the home screen and selecting'recent apps' (in the touch keys bar), settings,storage, the menu (the 3 tiny dots) and tap usb pc connection. If you do not want the software to try and install choose either the internet connection or camera option. Let us know if this helps.

  • Is there a way to shut off the cellular radio ?

    Is there a way to shut off the cellular radio ?
    I can go to “settings” and switch off cellular data.  However I still see the signal strength meter and my iPhone will ring if called.
    I thought there was a way to shut off the cellular radio in an iPhone and keep the Wi-Fi turned on.

    When you turn Airplane mode on, it does turn all the radios off. You can, however, turn the WiFi and bluetooth back on.
    Enjoy.
