    Audio from HDMI output

    Hi guys, I'm not getting any audio from my HDMI setup. I've got my HDMI dvd player hooked to my external HDTV tuner (accepts HDMI) for my display and then an optical output from the tuner to my receiver which is connected to the speakers. I get video but no audio even when I select the optical input source on the receiver. Any thoughts?

    I believe that HDMI v. 1.1 is required to transmit video and audio (excepting sacd which requires v. 1.2). HDMI v. 1 will transmit video only. Which version do you have?

      some DVD players have to have the outputs selected. Try checking your set up menu on the DVD player and make sure that the audio is set to go out the optical outs.
      The Bitterness of poor quality last longer than the joy of low prices.

        Which new HD audio format should you use?
        by Chris D
        I thought I'd post this to help out those who have taken the plunge into HD-DVD and/or Blu-Ray, to understand the BASICS of the new HD audio formats that it includes.

        The question is, when I pop in a new HD-DVD or Blu-Ray, when I get to the main menu, I've got a choice of several different...

        HDMI 1.3a receivers coming out
        by Chris D
        I wish I could make this non-model specific, but so far, this is all I know of actually delivering to consumers. Got an Integra press release today.

        Looks AMAZING for only $800! Note the deep color capability, Audyssey room correction, HDMI upconversion, and HD audio decoding!

        How I've added HDMI 1.3 high bitrate audio decoding to my Parasound C1
        by Chris D
        Quite a thread title, I guess. Perhaps I should subtitle it, "or how I learned to stop worrying and love the bomb... I mean, theater."

        As the title says, I've added HDMI 1.3 audio decoding to my home theater, centered around the Parasound C1 home theater controller. As...

        Optical or HDMI for audio?
        by boe
        Forgive my ignorance but I am ignorant about HDMI vs. optical. On my current preamp/processor, I hook my DVD player audio in through an optical cable and my preamp does the processing for DTS or DD. On future ones would I use HDMI instead? If it had both optical and HDMI would there be any audio...

        HDMI Jitter
        by Dmantis
        Ok,
        From what I have learned over the years is that HDMI has the highest jitter of any Digital transfer. I'm not sure if thats exactly true or not but it's been said by many people in and out of the industry. So lets take that at face value and talk about it.

        HDMI does pass the...
