We are trying to hook up our DVD player to the projector. The video works great, but there is no sign of audio. Any suggestions?

You can hook up speakers to your source (DVD player, TV, etc). Or, you can use the mini-jack in the back of the projector, but first you have to plug in the audio from the source to the projector! Typically, that is RCA-to-minijack.

There is s a full sound sistem, but most ppl dont was to spend hundrends of dallors for sound. I found u can hook up an I home to it and it works just as well

Hook computer speaker's to it. Using an rca plug that turns into a headphone type jack at the other

There is a stereo sized input on the projector and the projector has speakers - of a sort. What you will need to do is get an adapter or a cable that will go from male composite to male stereo 1/8". But, I would not use the speakers on the projector - they are not good. Plug the stereo end into a decent set of speakers. I use Logitech x40 speakers - around $30. They work great.

That's exactly what I was trying to do, and it won't work at all. No picture, let alone audio. Total bummer.

How do I even get the video onto a dvd? When I play it in Quicktime, it plays sound but no movie. When I use Windows Media Player, I get video but no sound. What am I doing wrong?

has video in but not sure if it has audio. The wiring of the connector is not normal so don't expect to just plug a DVD player into it

If the TV has a HDMI in and the DVD player has HDMI out connect the DVD to the TV via HDMI... use a optical audio cable to connect the DVD to the sound bar if the player has a optical audio out. in this case the item may not be necessary. If your DVD player does not have optical out check to see if the TV has an optical out. If it does connect the TV optical out the the bars optical in. Then all Tv audio will go to the bar. I think I might need more info on your gear to be more specific.

Dear Zachary, I just tested this on the projector I have for sale. I hooked plugged in the HDMI cable and I hooked up the audio to Bose speakers through the audio out port. The video was on screen and the sound came out of my speakers. It works great! I still have my speaker available and I hope you consider me as a seller when buying on Amazon! Thanks! - Jake Zerner

please make sure the video file is compatible with the projector, you cannot install a codec on to this model the audio needs to be able to decode in order to play sound so take a look at the file you are trying to play, if it is not compatible you can convert it using a video converter (you can download one free from many places on the web), the mx 400 has android built in and can play any kind of video even stream from netflix and it has 4 times the power it is more expensive tho

It has HDMI so, yes you could hook it directly to a DVD player; but there are no speakers.

Any DVD player you can hook up to a projector will work. I think you're question is more about the projector and not the DVD player, as the DVD player can't project by itself...

One more question - with DVD movies it seems like we can only hear the dialog in the center channel speaker...any way to fix this?thanks,-kevin

I would suggest checking the settings on the DVD player. Many will have multiple options for audio output.

We had the same issue, first you need to plug the power cord into just the monitor then plug into the DVD player monitor. It is backorders from ones we have had in the past.

No but I have figured out how to get sound from projector to amp only took me three months to figure it out all you do is plug the hdmi in so for example hdmi from projector to dvd machine and red and white from dvd to amp then go into the settings of the DVD player and set the audio to RCA boom that's it works perfect also ps3 same thing red white to amp now I do not have to listen to the sound from the projector anymore

You should be able to use a DVI cable with the audio cable giving you sound and picture I had the same problem and it worked for me.

once you have the basic connect as input video ( yellow cable) and audio ( red and white) for audio on the projector that should work fine for you , unless the projector need some unique setting/features

No audio to projector...need to connect audio to reciever to your cable box, bluray player, and any other source media.

I have my tv connected to the soundbar with the optical port, and it works for the tv and the cable box. The dvd player I have it connected with the regular red and white cables. Make sure you change the output, if you try with all outputs, then maybe is the optical cable that is bad, or maybe you don't have it connected all the way. Check the connections again. Soryy that is all I can thimk of, I am no expert, but it waorks for me.
