OK, so after my faithful dvi-vga cable finally failed (thanks to the peeps on here who told me that was why i was no longer getting a pic when MBP was connected to tv
) I went out yesterday and bought a dvi-hdmi cable as my viewsonic N3260W HDMI TV had a slot in back for HDMI. Research told me the audio could be done by getting a standard audio cable (mini one end, red, white the other - which goes into tv). The dvi-hdmi cable works great - have a picture etc. BUT, upon plugging audio cables in, i found i had no sound through the tv. Aaaargh. Please, someone, help me!
The back of TV has 7 possible audio holes:
pc audio
hdtv audio in (L & R)
hdmi analog audio in (L & R)
audio out ( L & R)
PC audio in
Used the hdmi holes - then when i got nothing i tried all the others - but to no avail.
Please, does anyone know why this isn't working?
Only thing i can think of is are there different types of dvi - hdmi cables and cld i have bought the wrong one? On the box it says DVI-D - HDMI.
This is all the info i can think of giving you. Help!!
