RX-V471 Receiver Audio Out (R-L) Jacks question

I purchased this using about two years ago and have been pleased with it so far. I purchased a wireless speaker for out door use which makes use of a trandmitter which can be connected to the audio out jacks. With the V471 these audio out jacks do not have an output when I have my Toshiba BD/DVD player selected. The BD/DVD player is connected to the receiver using the BD/DVD HDMI connection. The same is true when I select the TV. The sound does play through the surround sound speakers when either device is selected but I would have though the Audio Out jacks would also have output as well Under what configurations do the audio out jacks have output? Right now they only seem to be active when I use the V471 AM/FM tuner.

Are you trying to play the audio in both locations or just through the wireless speakers? This reciever doesn't do multiroom, so in order you hear sound through the wireless speakers you'll need to manually change the audio output to the audio ports they're connected to.

MBP audio out from headphone jack is extremely low in volume

i just sent my macbook pro 13in (mid 2009 model) to the apple store (out of warranty). my problem was that the audio out from the headphone jack was very very low and staticky. the problem arose about 2-3wks ago. i've owned the laptop since june 2009. i've never dropped or damaged it (no water damage, etc)
my local apple store told me they had to replace logic board which seems extreme for what my problem is. i've read numerous forum posts saying that their computers came back with flickering "kernel panic"
has anyone else had a similar audio problem with their computer, and if so was it resolved in this manner?
thanks!

I think you may be mistaken. the static coming from macbooks audio output port is as old a story as the macbook itself. IMO, epic fail on apple's part. I am debating complaining in a few months when I decide I deserve a better sound quality from a ridiculously overpriced laptop.

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?

How to record audio out from a portable player

Hi, I have a MacBook Air. I want to capture the audio out (3.5mm jack) from an old SONY minidisk recorder into the Air. I tried to plug speakers into the SONY and letting the internal mic capture the speaker sounds, but the quality wasn't crisp. Can anyone recommend a direct way (presumably thru USB) that ensures better quality? Thanks.
BTW, the contents I am capturing are voice journals on mini-disc my grand father had recorded since the mid-90's before he pass recently.

Take a look at the Griffen iMic. I have used it to capture audio from a portable cassette player. I used iTunes to store the tracks.

Longer cable (6') connecting female RCA L R Audio Out to Headphones In 3.5 on Vizio 32"?

What I want to do, since although the Vizio manual and the Best Buy sales rep, looking at the Vizio E320i-AO thought it came with a heandphone jack, it DOES NOT. It does have, where the manual thought the headphone jack was, L and R Audio Out ports. My question concerns if anyone can suggest a 6' or so cable that would allow me, then, to connect Volume Out on my TV to Volume In to my headphones. Thank you.

OK. Apologies. I ordered the wrong cable, based on a sales rep's suggestion and my not paying attention: more my fault than his. Anyway, got the order cancelled. The suggestion given to me is to get a 3" two RCA males to 1 3.5mm female. And then find a cable with a female and a male 3.5 ends. If anyone has been reading any of my posts, I offer my apologies. I am back to square one.

Is it possible to play iTunes audio out through USB to receiver to power speakers?

I thought you should be able to.Play iTunes audio out through USB to a receiver equipt with USB mode as I can with my iPad Air, but I can,t find in preferences on my 2013 iMac any out put and I get no signal to the receiver/amp. Is it possible? What am I doing wrong?

Yes
A 3.5mm to RCA cable or adapter will work fine for stereo between the Mac's headphone jack and receiver's RCA input.
for example's

> http://www.amazon.com/C2G-Cables-40645-Stereo-Adapter/dp/B000J1H4VI/
Additionally if your receiver is equipted with digital input, you could use a Toslink cable with a 3.5mm adapter on the Mac end.

Work-around for a broken headphones / audio-out jack on an iMac?

My late 2012 iMac suddenly refuses to show "Headphones Out" in the sound panel when I insert a 3.5mm stereo plug into the audio out jack on the back of the machine. Instead, the sound panel will show only 'Internal Speakers." I'm beginning to accept the necessity ofr a hardware repair, but in the meantime I'm wondering if there's a workaround that would permit me to mute the internal speakers and direct the sound, once again, to my Onkyo receiver with its attached external speakers.
Any suggestions much appreciated.

I have tested your utiity, but it does not work with my booklet. Do you have a gudline how to include ?
Thx

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.

Optical audio out to receiver

Hello, I have a powermac g5 hooked up to a vsx-1014tx Pioneer receiver via digital optical audio. When I'm using dvd player and select "system sound output" in Dvd Player's preferences I get audio through the digital optical hookup and sound out of the speakers, but the receiver's display doesn't switch to DIGITAL (it displays whatever sound processor I select on the receiver such as dolby prologic II) i.e. the computer outputs 2 channel digital audio. When I switch to "digital out - built in audio" in Dvd Player's preferences, there is no sound output while watching a movie. The receiver flickers between DIGITAL and DD Prologic II. Is there anything that you know of that will allow me to get 5.1 Dolby Digital put out through the G5's optical audio out? (settings, audio codec, ect.)
P.S. I have software updated and in system preferences/sound I have digital out selected
Thanks for your help
Daron

Not sure if it will help resolve your issue, but you can make more detailed adjustments to the audio output using +Audio MIDI Setup+ utility, which is in your Utilities folder.

Head phone/audio out jack location

This is feedback for Apple. I was not able to find any specific place on the apple web site to send feedback so I'm putting it here.
I have new 27 inch iMac. I love it.
One little niggle: I have a frequent need to plug and unplug my head phones. Having the only jack located on the back is a pain. If you could place a head phone jack discreetly on the lower left or right side, or on the bottom, of the case it would be much simpler to access.
If it is possible to change the output from internal speakers to headphone (audio out) via software that would also be good. Then I would never have to unplug the headphone, just switch them on and off via preferences as desired.

iMic Works great.
I found this web page
http://hints.macworld.com/article.php?story=20050614171126634
and used the Applescript by RobLewis to toggle between the internal and iMic system (you need to change the two property items to the words used in your System Preferences Sound Output). I have saved the Applescript as an App so I just need to click on it in the Dock to toggle the sound system.
Now if only I could toggle Front Row between internal and external displays in the same Applescript...
I currently use TV Row for selecting the display for Front Row:

Audio out jack malfunction macbook pro 15-inch (late 2008)

The audio out jack on my MacBook Pro is functioning intermittently. I am sure this is a mechanical problem effecting the analog signal (no red light indicating digital output). I have checked the system prefs for sound-- output shows device connection and mute box is not checked. If I jiggle the plug I might eventually get a connection. Did a little research and the problem seems to be occurring in the 15-inch Unibody MBP from late 2008 (my machine) due to faulty design of the jack. Most sites do not recommend replacement of the jack due to the necessity of resoldering to the logic board. Some suggested inserting a piece of tinfoil to tighten up the loose jack but I am not comfortable with this. Any suggestions out there?

Resetting SMC could solve the problem.

Help with audio out when plugging into 3.5" jack on a MacBook's combo input

With my old iMac, I used to plug my guitar into the 3.5" microphone jack* and either used the computer's speakers or plug headphones into the separate headphone port for audio out.
Now I have MacBook Air with a headphone/mic combo port. I checked the sound settings in System Preferences and couldn't select speakers for external audio. Is there a way to assign audio-out to the speakers and keep audio-in assigned to the mic/headphone port? Or am I going to need to buy some dongle or adapter now?
*How did I connect a guitar to the 3.5" port? I used a generic computer speaker wire (3.5" on each side) and plugged a 3.5" to 1" adapter (the kind you use for stereo headphones) into the guitar.

Hi Tim -
Please bear with me because I am no Apple expert. However, I do remember reading something that might help you out.
You wrote that you store your sound libraries are installed on an external drive. Someone, who posted either here or on another Logic bulletin board, basically stated that problems may occur if an external hard disk drive that carries the sound libraries is FAT32 or NTFS formatted (formatted for a Windows-based computer). Apparently, an external hard disk drive utilized for sound libraries should be formatted as *Mac OS Extended* (not journaled). (I hope that someone more expert on this subject will either validate this claim or suggest another option.)
Try doing a Search in this forum for more information on this subject. But I think how that external drive is formatted might make a difference on performance for the Mac computer.
I come from the PC world as well. I like both the Apple and PC systems. But I really like working with the Logic program.
Good luck to you
Ted

The audio out (headphone jack) stereo just stopped working.

The audio out (headphone jack) stereo just stopped working. On all my head phones (which work fine on other devices), macbbok pro sound is only coming through the left speaker. Anything I can do about this, aside just bringing it in to the shop? btw: audio output is set to middle.

Before taking to the shop, try Reset PRAM.
Some sound settings are stored in PRAM.
Even though the article title says 10.7 it is applicable to 10.4.

Macbook Pro Audio out jack Stereo Phono's ok?

I'm using the Macbook Pro's built in output (3.5" Jack) due to a messy workaround involving the digital optical out of the same port.
I record the Macbook Pro (VST's and FX) as Audio to another PC Recorder which is using the Edirol UA-25 (which has optical too)
Fine, but the downside is that the Edirol will only let you record digitally with the "Digital In" button pressed in, and will only allow monitoring of said recorded signal with the Digital button out! This is obviously annoying, but also you can't monitor playback of the last track whilst recording the next!!
So to cut a long story short, is the single 3.5" audio out from a Macbook Pro ok to record into the Edirol (analog) with 2 x phonos into the L&R?
Sounds a bit primitive in theory, but sounds ok, and i suppose many synths etc get recorded this way via analog outs to ins?

Yes thats the UA-25 I have.
What I am doing is treating my Macbook Pro (Mac OSX) as one machine running Logic/Ableton, and another 19" monitor running Parallels (windows xp) for my audio editor and VST's
So what I am trying to do is record from one to the other
I put the UA-25 USB Soundcard on the Windows/Parallels side to record 'in', and use the Macbook Pro's output/on-board soundcard as an 'output'
As explained with Digital, you can't monitor whilst recording the next part (due to Digital switch) which you have to keep pressing on/off/on/off to monitor/record
The easiest way i think is to come out of the analog Macbook Pro out 3.5" and split into 2 x Phono L&R going into the analog of the UA-25
Seems to work well, but just wanted some thoughts on the quality?

HT4806 Mac mini digital audio out through the headphone jack

I'm misled by this sentence for audio out port from the support page: "For digital audio, you can use Apple iPhone headset with microphone".
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5539
It is there for all mac minis starting from 2010 model.
Does it mean electrical digital signal? Any chance to get S/PDIF coaxial signal?

If an optical signal is OK, you just need one of these:

To convert the optical signal to a co-ax one will need a more complex/expensive convertor.
