Hello,

I have a really annoying problem, and I hope that someone could help. I've already googled it, but none of the normal suggestions for this problem solved it.

I've connected my desktop (windows vista, ATI 4770) to my Samsung 37" LCD TV trough a HDMI 1.3 cable.
The video is excellent, but there is no sound coming out of my TV speakers. I've set my desktop sound device to "High definition audio", the sound device added to my computer after i installed the 4770 graphics card (so I know the graphics card supports sound), but nothing.

The sound in other HD devices I have works just fine with only an HDMI cable. I've tried all 3 HDMI connections in my TV, but with no success.

Thanks a lot for any help or advice!! this thing is driving me crazy...

Michael.

Hye,

You will need to install your HD definition sound driver to hear sounds on your tv!

Thanks for your reply.

I have a high definition driver installed on my computer (it was installed automatically when i installed the ATI graphics card). When i chose this "high definition audio" device from my audio devices, still there is no sound, only video.

any thoughts? other suggestions?

Hi, I was just googling info on being able to watch tv through a pc. Can one do this with a Sharp Aquos 46" 1080p tv and if so, what do you recommend buying to make it totally functionable. I would be in mind to have a laptop sit in my Livingroom at all times just for watching tv instead of paying the cable company. I appreciate any good advice and equipment to purchase in completing this endeavor! Thanks in advance!

I had a similar problem. Ended up emailing these guys at www.av-setup.com so they would come and fix it for me. I paid about 25% less than some other company tried to get from me. They located in NYC, but came down to my house in NJ
