No sounds through HDMI using VLC, WMP works fine?

Postby wrcallar » 09 Jan 2012 00:50

Hi,

I use my laptop to play movies through my AV Receiver and then onto my TV, all my movies work fine using WMP but with VLC I can't get any sound. When I go on my windows properties, sound. The HDMI output it selected but during VLC movie playback no green bars are lit up indicating sound.

I've tried playing around with the Sound outputs on VLC but to no avail (not that I understand what any mean, I was just hoping one would simply say "HDMI output!" although you would have though my laptop itself would have told VLC to output via HDMI seeing as it was selected as the output device on my laptops sound settings!

When I unplug the HDMI VLC works through my laptop speakers fine.

Any ideas guys?

Hi I tried all of those options available to me in that output section and none made a difference :( Still no sound

It's just a normal dell studio laptop i've not done anything fancy to it

What does Tools -> Messages (set Verbosity to 2) say if you select HDMI device from VLC?
