Computer to Tv connection, it plays off your computer unless you have plugs for sound to connect.

Depends on the video card you have on your computer. If you have a intel i3,i5,i7 series with integrated video card. Yes. If you have an older video card with HDMI but without digital sound support, no. This really doesn't depend on the cable rather, depend on your hardware. IF your computer's not over 3 or 4 years old, its should have the updated HDMI video and audio drivers. Also, you have to set up the software so that the sound comes through you hdmi rather than optical or analogue as well.

Audio should be no problem soon as you connect it to HDMI on your tv but the one i purchased didn't work at all but i guess thts why its cheap...so good luck!

Yes go into system preferences then sound. In sound then go to outputs then it should say like LCD Tv or something like that which is your computer. Do not select internal speakers thats your computer. The Type will say HDMI

Not unless your TV has a bypass option for the headphone jack. Most TVs cut the speaker sound automatically when a headphone jack is plugged in.

You may output the HDMI to the TV and plug the sound output from the mini-computer to receiver (you will need a 1/8 inch headphone jack to RCA out connector).

Joseph-This will happen if the computer you're using doesn't support audio pass-through via DisplayPort. Check your model to ensure compatibility. Alternatively, if your model is compatible, ensure that your TV is selected as your audio output device (on a Mac, in System Preferences, Audio, Output).

While the audio out on your tv works fine, I've found that you get better sound if you plug it directly into the audio out jack on your desktop set. (assuming you have cable or satellite tv.)

I use a VGA cable to run my laptop off of my TV. However instead of hooking up an audio cable to the television I just plug in a small set of speakers to the laptop to increase the volume coming off of the laptop. It's really same thing, just that sound comes off of the computer instead. Just a suggestion and another option.

If you want the sound from the TV then you have to buy the headphone jack that fit your computer and splits into an RCA red and white to go into the back of the television. It works really well from my computer with this configuration. But to answer your question is it provided, it is not.

Not sure. I use mine for multiple inputs to TV but my inputs are XBox360 and PC videos via HDMI port on laptop. In both cases the sound comes through just fine. I've played downloaded videos rated as 720p video from my laptop to it and that worked fine too. Hope that helps.

Hi Toni--the answer is "yes". I just connected yesterday, as a matter of fact, and it was a breeze. I went to a website to find out how to connect my computer to a TV and it worked just fine. Here's the website: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gtRd_ttmQ70

I would think so, but depends on whether your computer can output audio through MiniDisplayPort. Try to configure your computer's audio output (Control Panel, Sound), run a test directly from there. Try to play video on the computer (e.g., youtube), see if you're getting picture but no sound, even with all the appropriate controls set correctly.

Can you get sound from the Tv from the connected computer? Some laptop models didn't have the sound capability built into the mini dvi ports. I know my (early 09) MacBook only pushes picture through, while my girlfriend's(10-11?) MacBook pushes sound and picture.. Go to your system preferences, and click sound. If there's an option to play through HDMI, then you can do it, otherwise, you can't.Check the settings on your computer, and on your tv. Some TV's won't push sound from certain ports to another without having 'external speakers' on and some other options checked first

I have the sound coming form the TV so it works fine with any kind of media channeled through the TV input. Sound is fantastic, hope that helps
