Pavilion g6-1b70us. Picture but no sound from tv when using HDMI. Previously worked no problem.

I have a pavilion g6-1b70us that I am trying to hook up to my tv with an hdmi cable. I get a picture, but no sound. This previously worked with no problem. When I pull up my sound playback settings the only options are speakers and headphones. When I pull up my devices, the Samsung tv is there, but is described as a "generic monitor" (thought that was weird). I have uninstalled and reinstalled my intel graphics driver and IDC audio driver but still no sound through TV. Also, I will mention that in under control panel>devices and sounds there is a link to SRS Premium Sound. As you can see in the picture below, the Samsung device shows up, but it is grayed out and cannot be selected. Can someone please help?
This question was solved.

Well in case anyone is interested I fixed the issue (only took me 12 hours to figure out, lol). Apparently even though the Samsung tv was not appearing in the sound playback options, you can still right click in the blank area and an enable/disable option will appear.

No sound from TV when using HDMI from HP Envy Ultrabook4 despite downloading drivers

Problem: When using an HDMI cord from my HP Envy Touchsmart Ultrabook 4 (4-1105dx)to connect to my TV to view movies, the video appears on my TV screen, but there is NO sound from the TV. Instead the sound comes from my lap top.
Troubleshooting: I have looked under Sounds in the Control Panel, but the only choice listed is Speakers & Headphones IDT High Definition (which is the default) and does not allow sound from the TV when using the HDMI. I have also tried to download Driver and Audio Graphics, but wasn't sure which one & the ones which were downloaded have not solved the problem.
Can you assist me? Which is the correct Audio/Graphic Driver to download? Or is there another possible reason why I cannot hear sound from my TV when using the HDMI to connect to my lap top?

2. Select Playback devices
3. Right click HDMI sound
4. Enable it
5. Click Apply/Ok

Sound Preferences Changed when using HDMI - Yosemite

Mid 2010, 27'' iMac
3.6 GHz Intel Core i5
14G RAM
When using the HDMI output (from my iMac, into my Lenovo laptop) my default sound output preferences are being changed since upgrading to Yosemite.
I have an external sound card for my monitor speakers. the sound card is my default in and output.
When I insert the HDMI into my laptop (and use the iMac as an external monitor for my laptop) Yosemite changes the default sound output to the iMac internal speakers. I've used the keyboard to (cmd + F2) and toggled between the laptop external display and iMac home screen and can see the sound output changed to internal speakers)
Appreciate this is quote a specific issue
Any ideas if there is a work around for this?

Sound drops off when using hdmi outport to connect computer to an AV reciever

Satellite M640,I5 2410 processor, windows 7HP. After about three minutes the sound drops off when connected to the av reciever through the hdmi outport. If I touch the trackpad the computer reconnects for another three minutes and then disconnects. If I touch the the trackpad about every two minutes the computer stays connected indefinetly. This problem does not occur if I use the computer to play an audio CD. Any fix suggestions.

No sound on TV when using HDMI cable from MAC

Hi
Anyone any ideas why I cant get any sound on the TV when I plug the HDMI cable in - It only comes thru on my MBP.
Also, I have to scroll the mouse off screen and grag any windows off screen in order for them to display on the TV .... It must be smething to do with resolution or something...But I cant work it out
Any help gratfully received
Thanks
Emma

To get sound you will have to tap into the audio output port. This will require a 'Y' connector with a compatible plug that fits the port and splitting into the two audio channels with RCA connectors. The image shows a possible type you can use, but you would still need two male/male RCA connector extensions to your TV. A little search on the Internet should enable you to identify the most practical way of connecting audio.
The ideal set up is to use the extension shown with a Y connector with male out put connectors.
Ciao.

You really need a newer Mac Mini with a true HDMI output, because that Mac Mini's DVI output does not support Audio.
You might try a 3.5mm to RCA adapter
from the Mac Mini's headphone jack to the TV's audio input,
but that would require being able to select the Audio input in the TVs menu while using it's HDMI input.
Optionally you could also use an external 2.1 Speaker System or patch the audio from the Mac Mini to your home stereo system to enhance that older Mac Mini's audio.

Itunes - Video file conversion (Picture but no sound)

When I convert videofiles (avi, wmv) to Ipod/Iphone using Itunes i get the picture but no sound.
Please help me.

It's an issue with the file being multiplexed (a.k.a muxed, where the audio and video tracks are interleaved together into one track). iTunes can't export the audio from these files. Read more about it here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1721?viewlocale=en_US
And then here:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1588?viewlocale=en_US
You can download a 3rd party program that will convert the files for you so they work properly. Check out this link:

I hope that helps. Good luck.

Satellite 1100-Z14: I get the only picture but no sound when playing DVD's

I know mine is a fairly old notebook,but despite updating with latest firmware, I have an intermittent problem when playing DVD's (Reg 2) in that I get the picture but no sound, particularly with some older DVD's.
CD's are ok.
Toshiba repair agent says it is a software problem and they only deal with hardware problems.
Can anyone tell me how I can deal with this problem please ? ( apart from getting a later model ! )

I think I may have stumbled on the problem, I use IntervideoDVD7 and under audio effects there is an option
'Sydney Theatre' etc, I changed it to 'off' and the sound cames back. maybe I should study their manual a bit more !

VGA picture but no sound

I have a Toshiba laptop and a flat screen Sceptre TV. I hooked a VGA cable to my computer and laptop and got a good picture, but no sound. The sound still comes through the laptop and not the TV. Is there a setting I need to change?

A VGA cable doesn't transmit audio. You'll need to use separate cables to transmit audio.

Connected ipod to tv, picture but no sound

i have a 30GB and i'm connecting to my tv witha 3rd party set of RCA cables i can see picture but no sound. don't know how to fix, did i do something wrong when i converted files or what? help, please

Do you have to play them online
Yes; if a game does not require a web connection after it is loaded, you can go on playing it after moving out of range of the hotspot.

I get the picture BUT NO SOUND - HELP!!!

Hello all,
I need help just bought apple tv and connected to my flatscreen samsung 1080p to the tv hdmi4 and i get picture but NO SOUND!! Am I missing a cable?? Do I need something else?? What do i do ???

I'm not familiar with your Denon specifically, but my Onkyo A/V amp has a settings menu for each input. Check the settings for the HDMI input you have the ATV connected to and make sure they are correct for your TV.
Also, as I mentioned previously, you could connect your ATV back to your TV directly with the HDMI cable, then connect the optical audio output on the ATV to an optical audio input on your Denon, then make sure it is selected when you watch the ATV to get digital sound.

After 1.6.2 update, I have hd picture but no sound, tv says hdmi audio unavailable

I have hd picture but no sound, tv says hdmi audio unavailable , this happened right after update 1.6.2 my television is an HP PL4260N, I saw on other post in fixya.com other people with same problem after update too. Any ideas on fixing this? I already spent 2hrs with tech support trying to fix this and no luck, they had me use components I never had any problems before this update, is there a way to go back to 1.6.1? One more thing my standard channels work fine (video & audio)

You may need to revert to using component cables until they hammer out the issues with HDMI. Just hang on to that HDMI cable for future use when these issues are resolved. You will not see a degrade in picture quality with component cables. Only downside is the added cabling mess.
