HDMI audio doesn't work

I'm using an Acer Aspire Revo R1600 as a mediacenter using XBMC. It's connected to our Samsung TV (pretty sure it's the ES8000) through a Pioneer VSX-922 amplifier (or to be more precise, A/V receiver). It's connected to the receiver over HDMI, which links the video through to the television.
Now the problem: This setup worked fine with my old TV, a pretty old Philips model. The second I plugged in the new TV, the amplifier wouldn't output any sound anymore. When I connect it to my computer monitor (which has a 3.5mm jack to connect PC speakers to) sound works fine, and so does the 3.5mm headphone jack on the front. I'd like not to use that though, seeing that the output volume is extremely low and I don't like cranking up my amplifier about halfway just to watch a movie at reasonable volume.

I tried following that guide, but

didn't play anything. I also tried connecting the computer to the television directly, still no audio output.
Something I also tried was putting the aplay -D in a while loop, and then plugging the HDMI cable in while it's looping, to no avail.

HDMI Audio doesn't work on Windows 10 Tech Preview

I am using a HP ENVY TouchSmart 15-j053cl Notebook PC and often plug it directly into my television for streaming video. However, after updating to windows 10 tech preview the HDMI output for audio no longer appears in playback devices, though video is fine. Upon further inspection I found that the device is not starting via device manager, i.e
"This device cannot start. (Code 10)
{Operation Failed}
The requested operation was unsuccessful."
I attempted to reinstall the driver from the support site for windows 8.1, but that had no effect. The driver I installed
IDT High-Definition (HD) Audio Driver 2013-09-30 , Version6.10.6491.0, 43.95M
Located http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?os=4158&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en&sw_lang=&product=5390...
Are there any drivers out yet that can bridge the gap from 8.1 to 10?
Any help would be great,

HDMI audio is not working on my Satellite P50-A-14G

Hello, my pc is a SATELLITE P50-A-14G, and I'm writing this because when I conect the HDMI to my pc, the audio doesn't work. I've tried almost everything, but it doesn't seem to recognize the HDMI as sound player. Image is good, but sounds keep playing from the speakers of the laptop itself.
I've checked the playback tab on the sound config and it doesn't appear HDMI device to select.
I've also checked on the Device Manager and uninstalled the "IDT High Definition Audio CODEC" wich was automatically updated once reset the laptop, but I didn't appreciated any changes at all. I have also checked if the HDMI output was in disabled, but it doesn't appear at all. I don't know what else to do! Help me, please!

Hi
Click with right mouse button and enable options “show disabled devices” and “show disconnected devices”.
Is HDMI device shown now?
If your notebook recognized TV the sound device must be detected too.
Do you use original preinstalled OS that you got with your notebook?

I think that you have multiple sound devices and their boot order changes after each reboot.

Audio doesn't work after encoding

I have finished editing a video and gone to export it as a WMV and the audio doesn't work; there is just a buzzing noise.
The audio works fine on the timeline, but i just cannot export it.
Any ideas what's gone wrong?

Hi ATR, thanks for getting back to me. Here is all the info you required:
It's Premiere Elements 10 on a Windows 7 PC.
The source media is a mix of WMV, MP3 audio and JPGs.
The project settings are:

Fps: 25
Audio settings: 440 kbps, 96kHz, 2 channel 24 bit VBR (I have tried it with a number of different variations on this and still had no luck)
I’ve tried opening with Windows media player as well as VLC. Neither are having it.

Rocketfish Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter doesn't work

I recently bought a Rocketfish adapter for my late 2010 Macbook Pro and it doesn't work on my TV. I'm going to try swapping it out tomorrow to see if that's the problem, but just in case it wasn't, I thought I'd come and ask someone who'd know the answer. The TV is an Insignia TV, the HDMI cable works - we use it for out BluRay player - the adapter just...doesn't work. When I turn the TV on, my screen briefly goes to a light blue, then back to my normal desktop. Mildly frustrating that this won't work. Anybody have any advice they can offer?

CLICK "SYSTEM PREFERENCES", THEN FIND AND CLICK THE "DISPLAY", GO TO AND CLICK THE "ARRANGEMENT" AND CLICK "MIRROR DISPLAY" PROBLEM SOLVE GUARANTEE, AND ON THE AUDIO PROBLEM, GO TO "SOUNDS AND CLICK "HDMI" OR "VGA" IF YOU ARE USING VGA CORD. NO NEED TO UPDATE THE SOFWARE. WORKS LIKE MAGIC.

My HDMI port doesn't work

Hello I upgraded my windows to 8.1-64 bit and after that I found out my HDMI port and Bluetooth doesn't work , from this page I download Intel High-Definition (HD) Graphics Driver which finish installing with a error that says---------------------------
This computer does not meet the minimum requirements for installing the software.---------------------------
also I downloaded Qualcomm Atheros Bluetooth 4.0+HS Driver for Microsoft Windows but nothing happend , in the other hand I am prety sure that my product bluetooth is Intel® PROSet/Wireless Software for Bluetooth® technology (it was previous windows driver) that I downloaded it from this link and it didn't work.I'd appreciate it if someon help me.procuct model: pavilion dv6-6c55se

Hi: I don't think you are going to have any luck running W8.1 on that machine. The Intel graphics driver won't work because you have the custom AMD/Intel switchable graphics and only the AMD driver should be used for that setup as it also contains the special Intel graphics drivers needed. You can try this W8 driver for the graphics, and if it doesn't work on W8.1, then game over. This package provides the AMD High-Definition (HD) Graphics Driver and Catalyst Control Center for supported notebook models that are running a supported operating system. For notebooks with switchable graphics modes, this package includes drivers for both graphics processing units (GPUs). Switchable graphics enable users to switch between a power-saving graphics mode (normally used under battery power) and a high-performance graphics mode. If high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) video output is supported, this package also installs the HDMI Audio Driver. File name: sp59850.exe The Intel bluetooth...you posted a W8 driver. I would try the W8.1 driver... https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/23449/Intel-PROSet-Wireless-Software-for-Bluetooth-technology-for-Windows-8-1- If you are unsure as to what bluetooth driver you need, you always install the corresponding model bluetooth driver for the model wireless card your notebook has. So, if you have an Intel wireless card, then you install the Intel bluetooth driver. If you have an atheros wireless card, then you install the atheros bluetooth driver, and so forth.

Dr. Bott Mini DisplayPort to HDMI cable doesn't work.

I'm trying to connect my MacBook (mid 2010) with my tv and I can't get it working properly. I have the HDMI cable, and the mini display port to the HDMI cable. When I connect the computer to the tv, the computer screen turns light blue like it is about to synchronize, but the tv screen remains black. After a moment, 2 boxes appear on my tv screen. One says "HDMI1: and the other "no signal detected".
I've tried with "detect displays", I've tried connecting to all the HDMI ports I have on my TV, I've tried basically everything but it still doesn't work.
This is the adapter - http://www.drbott.net/product/7395-MDPA/
My TV is a fairly new Samsung, and everything else is working fine, I don't know why this won't function. It's frustrating me.
Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

When I have this problem, it is because my Macbook Pro is using "Integrated" graphics vs the "Descrete" graphics. I control this via the gfxCardStatus menubar utility.
You could also try reseting the smc controller

and/or resetting the PRAM

HDMI audio doesn't output to AV receiver

- 2013 Mac Book Pro Retina 15
- OSX 10.9.4
- Pioneer SC-1522K receiver
- Panasonic AE-8000 projector
I have problem with my hdmi audio output to my receiver after upgrading to Mavericks. If I connect my MBP to the receiver, my receiver will appear as an output in my sound preference setting for me to select in addition to the "Internal speaker". However, whenever my projector(connect to the receiver as an output) is turned on, my receiver will disappear in the sound output selection. So the Video is output to the projector but the audio can only be played by the MBP instead of the the receiver. Before I upgraded to Mavericks, the video is output to the projector and the audio is output to the receiver.
I tried to use my Dell laptop and it works fine. The video is output to the projector and the audio is output to the receiver.
Can someone help on this please?

HDMI is sort of "finicky" . try connecting to a different TV, or with a different cable. Also turn either device on and off a time or too.

Html5 audio doesn't work for mp3s.

I can't seem to get tag <audio> working with mp3s on my system(FF 24, Win 7 x64). I tried some wav files, those work ok. But whenever i try to play mp3 file, the html5 player just flashes for a few milliseconds and then disappears. So, is there a bitrate limitation (or any other limitation) for html5 audio tag on mp3s?
Here's an example of code and one of the mp3 files I am trying to use - http://dindo.wz.cz/jukebox.html .
(file http://dindo.wz.cz/Galaxy32Star4.mp3 )
The console (ctrl+shift+k) gives these errors (rough translation):
[14:07:48.861] Type HTTP "Content-Type" "audio/mpeg" is not supported. Loading of media http://dindo.wz.cz/Galaxy32Star4.mp3 has failed. @ http://dindo.wz.cz/jukebox.html
[14:07:48.862] Couldn't load any of candidate sources. Loading of media was suspended. @ http://dindo.wz.cz/jukebox.html
p.s: Even the w3c example doesn't work when i remove the ogg source. (http://www.w3schools.com/html/tryit.asp?filename=tryhtml5_audio_all).

can you replicate the issue, when you create a new profile for testing purposes?: [[Use the Profile Manager to create and remove Firefox profiles]]

X-fi Xtreme Audio doesn't work in Windows 7 64 bit

Hello everyone,
I know this is a known issue and I've found many topics on this, but still I can't find any solution and I hope you can help.
I've a Creative X-fi Xtreme Audio that was working perfectly under Windows XP SP3 but then I've upgraded to Windows 7 64 bit and the sound coming out from my speakers is awful. I've installed the latest driver from creative home site, I've updated the OS via "microsoft Update", I've tried many suggestions I've found on the web to solve this, like phisically change the PCI slot of the sound card, or reduce the ram ammount via msconfig but it didn't work. I've tried some custom driver either, the support pack 2.7 by Daniel?K. but nothing... I'm still at the starting point.
What should I do?
This is my actual configuration:
OS: Microsoft Windows 7 Premium SP v 6..760
CPU: AMD Athlon 64x2 6000+
MB: Asus M3N78 SE (with the latest bios version 002)
Ram: 4gb
Video: nVidia GeForce GT 220

I use CS4 on a Windows 7 64-bit computer.
I noticed that none of the extensions I installed with the Extension Manager don't appear at all in any of the CS4 programs.
Can anyone tell me why this doesn't work or how to solve this problem?
Try posting to the Extension Manager forum:

Edge audio doesn't work in DPS project

Being very happy after latest update of Edge CC, I've decided to make DPS project for iPad.
First, when I chose "autoplay" button for audio timeline, I got a warning about sound autoplay option is not supported at digital devices (??). So what should I do? To not use the autoplay?
Second, a preview of Edge animation in web-browser works perfect (both background sound and a sound for user interaction) - BUT when I put .oam file in DPS, the sound just DOESN'T WORK.
I tried everything - check-uncheck "autoplay", check-uncheck "preload audio", put an audio as a trigger.. no sound in iPad.
And when I put audio file directly into Indesign, a sound works perfect in iPad.
What's going on?

so the idea is all projects for iOS cannot use Edge Audio feature that was just released last month? At least in full way, as it is shown in built-in Edge Tutorial (autoplay)?
No, not exactly. iOS and other mobile devices can playback HTML 5 audio, which is what Animate outputs.
But the fact of the matter is that autoplay for audio (and preloading) is not supported by mobile devices - it's a limitation manufacturers build into their devices. Therefore, to use audio from Animate in mobile devices, you have to initiate audio playback from a user event, such as touchstart or click.
We warn you of this in Edge Animate when you turn on autoplay (warnings appear at the bottom of the Stage).
