Forum:No Sound when HDMI is used

Hello all, I think the title says it all. Thus, unless if I am missing something really obvious, the only way to have sound from the ScreenPlay Pro is to use the AV/SCART option. When I use the HDMI there is no sound. Thanks in advance --Sxwiz 17:27, October 20, 2009 (UTC)
 * There are three things that could cause this. 1) the Screenplay, 2) the Cable, and 3) the TV.  So first, you should try to narrow down which of the three is the problem.  Take your screenplay over to a friend's house and plug it into their AV system.  See if using their cables and TV fixes the problem.  If it doesn't, then try changing the settings on your screenplay.  Specifically, try the audio settings to see if 2 channel stereo works, or 5.1 works.
 * If it does work on your friend's TV, then substitute your own cable to see if the problem comes back. Obviously if it comes back, the problem is the cable. If the cable works, then you need to look at settings on your TV and see if there is something that needs to be adjusted.
 * If you happen to know anybody who has a "Monster" HDMI cable, you may want to try that. I've seen one instance where a person's audio did not come through as dolby digital until he used a monster cable, although the problem may have just been a faulty cable to begin with.
 * Can you use the sound from the AV/SCART and the video from the HDMI? --JCoug 19:41, October 21, 2009 (UTC)


 * While I've got the screenplay up right now, I just saw another setting that may impact you. S/PDIF in the audio settings can be HDMI LPCM, HDMI RAW, SPDIF LPCM, and SPDIF RAW.  You may want to rotate amongst those settings as well. --JCoug 23:19, October 21, 2009 (UTC)


 * You are right my friend, it is/was the cable. Apparently the cable that came with SP Pro isn't good enough. When I switched with my DVD HDMI cable it worked. So, I guess I must buy a new cable, thanks for the help.--Sxwiz 06:35, October 23, 2009 (UTC)
