[Q] Sound not working with HDMI! - LG Optimus 2x

Hey there people , new guy here on these forums and I hope I can lend your expertise for a second!
The issue is like this :
When I plug in my Optimus 2x (P990) I can't get sound through to my TV!
Using a LG60PK250N , anyone have experienced this issue before?
My phone still plays the sound from the phone-speaker... but it just sounds **** from there. Would much rather have the phone working as it should be!
Using stock-rom , nothing really changed on the phone.
Any ideas?

Using the stock player??
For me the sound goes out of the tv and not the phone... (this is how it should be)

Stockplayer with a movie recorded with the camera =/.

Did you check the HDMI-Cable?

Does the HDMI cable support sound?? I didnt know HDMI cables had sound...

Not only sound, there are different versions of hdmi. With 1.4 there is also an ethernet channel available (for example)

Gonna test the phone on another tv later today , will update if it's not working still.

Its because you play a video recorded by the phone
The phone only records audio in 1 channel AAC at 22 Khz samplerate and HDMI do not carry mono audio, only stereo audio at min 32 Khz samplerate
Try to play something else having stereo audio at min 32 Khz, a youtube music video, or some video you converted and transfered to the phone yourself and you should get sound.

please help: Computer problem

I just a baught a new pc to play crysis with as i wanted to catch up on the hype.
The PC is running
Intel Core 2 Quad (Q660) 2.4GHz
4GB of ram (although vista 32bit is only reading it at 3007MB)
GEFORCE 9800GT 1024MB
My main problem is this, iv connected the pc to my HD Monitor using the graphics cards hdmi out, iv also connected the sound card to my monitor, so the sound comes out the integrated speakers,
The monitor keeps making these hissing and clipping sounds which is conflicting with the sound cards sound, so i get sound but, suddenly il get a hiss and a clip, every 5 seconds, when i take the hdmi cable out of the monitor the clipping and hissing stops and theres no conflict, so im assuming its something to do with the graphics card.
Is there anyway to disable the sound coming through the hdmi cable and just get it coming through the sound card.
Please someone help
so im guessing no one else has had this problem?
well if anyone has got any idea please let me know, thanx
um graphics card maybe cant handle it? go to a gaming forum or just google crysis help/problems and get better help somewhere else....

If your computer or TV have DVI as well you can try using that instead. I use DVI Out on my computer (Don't have HDMI Out on computer anyway) and HDMI IN on the TV (only HD Input on TV). Since DVI does not handle sound - only video, this could potentially solve your problem.
Evolancer13, the graphics card runs crysis perfectly, iv been playing it very high settings, i dont know the framerate, but iv been playing it at very high without problems. its just the sound, might be driver issues.
hotrod101, that is a very good idea, i think im going to do exactly that, thanx very much.
oh yeh, the sound issue wasnt just when i was playing crysis, it was everywhere even when i wasnt playing music, you can hear clipping and hissing sounds, i think its because the motherboards intergrated sound hasnt been connected to the graphics card sound input, so somehow thats whats causing the proble, hotrod101, however i trully beleive your solution will work, thanx again.
Glad I could help. That's what we are all here for isn't it. To seek help and offer help when needed.
Take care

[Q] No Audio with HDMI Droid 3

Hey all,
I am using the Droid 3 Stock ROM, but Rooted. I connected the Micro HDMI cable I bought (and a second one to make sure it wasn't bad) to the TV, and the picture is perfect, but the Audio is completely scrambled... garbled, whatever. It is completely unbearable. You can't make out even one word. I tested out movies, music and Angry Birds. Again, all the video is flawless, but the audio stinks. I even tried 2 other TVs to rule that out. Am I missing a setting in the phone somewhere?? Thanks for your support!
I'm researching the same issue. Here are some interesting data: my wife and I picked up a pair of D3's last October. Hers is completely stock, while mine is stock-rooted. Long-story-short is that I can't get any kind of audio out from mine over HDMI, but hers works perfectly. At the moment I'm not interested in testing whether being rooted is the issue (seems REALLY unlikely) but the fact that I get it to work on her phone and not mine completely eliminates the cable(s), TVs, etc. It's something about the phone..

[Q] HDMI audio problem

Hello to all,
A few days ago I received my LG O2x, everything works fine. Today I bought an adapter to connect my phone to my tv using HDMI.
The picture is transferred perfectly, but I got no audio on my tv. The phone speaker keeps working instead of my tv.
Is there a setting I missed? Or perhaps an app that can select the output device (ubuntu-like)?
My phone is updated to android 2.3.4
The tv works fine with my HD Mediabox.
Hope you can help!
Regard,
Matthijs

Hdmi works great on another tv, but not on my 5 year old Grundig Cinaro HDready tv. Only picture no sound.
Does somebody know how to get it working?
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA
I think that your TV doesn't support it or something if it works on other TV's with Audio except on yours then it's your TV...
Yeah seems to be the problem, tried it on 3 tvs, 2 Grundig (same type) 1 Sony. Only the sony works.
But connecting my laptop to my grundig tv is no problem, audio and video.
So my thougt is: phone doesn't recognize tv and sends no audio.
Next thougt: there should be more people that wants to select theire audio output, ie 3.5mm instead of hdmi. So if there is an app that can force audio to a selected output, I can try if that solves my problem. But I can't find such an app.

[Q] little bit garbled and lower pitched sound

Hi all,
Yesterday I bought my chromecast and I've set it up without problems, but I noticed the sound played through the chromecast is just a little bit garbled and worst of all, it's pitched like a semi-half tone down. For movies and youtube this'll won't be a problem, but I play the guitar and when music is played, it's horribly out of tune.
I couldn't find anything on the internet as a solution. Does anyone encounter the same problem?
Setup:
Nexus 5 with cm11, android 4.4.4
Stock chromecast

Sounds like a dolby incompatibility....
Does the source have a dolby track and does this happen with a stereo content item?

Its with all content; whether its youtube, or casting my whole android screen, google music, I even tried it casting a youtube tab from chrome on my notebook. All same results.. Lower pitched sound and a little bit chopped.
But I sure do wanna try out everything. How can I find out wheter there is a dolby track?

If it is happening on everything then it is unlikely what I suspected it was...Especially if it happens on You Tube as well...
It could be a bad HDMI network connection between the CCast and the TV....
So try this....
1 - Try another input on the TV
2 - Try the CCast on a different TV and see if it still happens
If #1 solves it then it's that one TV Input, You can check the audio setting for that input but the CCast should communicate all of that and send the proper signal. (try re-plugging into the original input and see if the problem goes away)
If #2 has the same problem then it's a lemon CCast and you might need a replacement.

In a clear moment #1 has already come to mind, so tried another hdmi input, same results.. I don't have another hdmi tv before wednesday.. Will try it then and will post my results..
I just tried my chromecast on another tv and it worked normally, so it was my hdtv.
I checked the internet and there was an update. Updated and my chromecast works perfectly now!
Thanks for the input!

HDMI is really a network so any small issues and it falls apart.

Should I go with raspberry Pi 2 as Media center

I have already got MK808 android stick, which is 1.2 GHz dual core with Mali 400 GPU.
After using it long as general purpose device, decided to convert it as media centric device, with 2.1 speaker setup
I am facing following limitations,
1. Not able to play HD/1080 videos smoothly
2. Tried USB sound card to connect it to 2.1 speaker, but quality is not good
So I started to look for alternate devices. I liked RPI 2 especially due to it's support, but before buy, I have some questions unanswered
1. Since I have 1.2 GHz device, I am just wondering with RPI 2 being 900 MHz, is it powerful enough device as media PC. Especially can we consider it for future proof (may be 3 years)? I am thinking because, I don't want to fall in situation to buy another device only after next 1 year due to RPI2 limitation.
2. When I add case, WiFi dongle, power cable, HDMI cable etc, it's going to about 75 USD. At this price, there are many choices like,
# Android stick MXIII, which seems more powerful with android support
# Dedicated media player like,
http://www.amazon.in/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_1?url=search-alias=aps&field-keywords=media+player
But I don't know, how to compare those with RPI 2 and conclude which one will be more powerful and future proof
Any suggestion?

I have been using Raspberry Pi 2 B+ for a month as media center with the Rasplex OS. I have tried 1080p, 720p and a few different formats like mp4 mkv, avi etc and they all work fine, even while seeking. The main reason for this could be that the processing/trans-coding of the video is done on the server(the files are not stored on Pi, and no HDD is connected to it.) This all works on a WiFi adapter.
If You can use Plex app on Your Android Stick and use a plex server somewhere, You won't need to buy a Pi. Although You would need to buy Plex pass to come over restriction in Android app I think.
Rpi 1 can run almost limitless video bitrate via smb share. But it has issues with very heavy audio since 1 pi's processing power is not great basically. But mines 1 still run movies with 10mbps video and 5mbps audio well. Above that it starts to buffer maybe its network bottlenecking. Audio quality via hdmi is great. I got a pi 2 just a while ago looking forward to test it with openelec. I have chromecast stick too i think that i wouldn't need rpi if i didn't had media at local share. Chromecast is far more better if u use only netflix, viaplay, youtube, popcorn, etc and can use it with android device phone/tablet.
Thanks for replies.
Has anyone connected it to 2.1 speaker system?
Because, that is my one of the aim.
Can anyone tell quality if connected to AV cable/stereo jack?
And, is it possible to get video through HDMI cable and audio through AV cable to 2.1 speaker?
Can someone, who already have similar configuration, help me out to build similar one.

Yes, it can output both video through HDMI cable and audio through AV cable at the same time.

How do you rate quality through AV cable out?
I believe, AV out doesn't give good quality as HDMI.
Through USB sound card on my MK808, I am loosing bass. Woofer doesn't give any sound.
I am worried, same should not be with RPI as I'll loose all fun of watching movies.
Anybody with 2.1 speaker setup hear?

HDMI is better. My 2.1 system is connected to my LG-tv, so i dont know what quality the 3,5 mm output is.

Unfortunately, my LED TC has onlu audio jack. So, if I connect 2.1 system with it, I get very low volume.
So, only option to get sound from RPI AV jack.
Can you check in your system with AV jack and report the difference in output?
Any though on
RPI2 vs MXIII vs MXQ?

Composite video out quality is pretty good. On OpenELEC, playing 720p live stream Russia Today. Output is classic PAL resolution. Image quality is better than 576p SD DVB-S thru SCART with good quality sat reciever. I have big old widescreen CRT Panasonic Quintrix TV.
If you play any 720p movie, quality will be comparable to DVD player with SCART.
I dont know how is your audio input for these 2.1 speakers. Just single 3 pole 3.5mm or also separate one for subwoofer? If it need 2 connectors then you need 5.1 sound card with (usually orange) center/subwoofer connector.
I think you should turn up your headphone volume on your tv

Ideal for local media or media on a NAS but not being able to access Netflix, Hulu etc (like you can on Android) might be a bit of a put off. Shame really coz the Pi2 is more than powerful enough to support these streaming services
