So far in my experience with this receiver the volume does not display onscreen when passing-through HDMI signals. However, it will display if you are upconverting component and composite to HDMI signals. Hope this helps.

It really shouldn't matter. The hdmi however can also transmit audio which will allow you to use the built in speakers without having to use the aux cord provided

You need to go in your settings and you'll see the HDMI cable in the "OUtput" options. That's it

Yes with a component style connection, this sound bar does not support HDMI though

Unfortunately not. You only hear audio from the room that is showing on the monitor display screen. I have this issue sometimes too. Hopefully Summer will eventually make a "split screen" monitoring system.

I don't know what you're asking but Display port & HDMI can carry sound. DVI can not

It depends on your TV. Many don't relay sound from HDMI in to their own OUT ports, or (as Brandon suggested) might do so only after their settings were changed (see TV manual). See AVSForum.com for discussion and a place to get more detailed help.

Without knowing a lot more about what you are connecting, I can only offer things to check. It worked out-of-the box for me. Check these: Is the 3.5mm plug into the computer headphone jack, is that volume all the way up and selected as the playback device? (Plug a set of headphones in to make sure). Not knowing the TV for playback, it seems you can see the image, yeah? Check that the TV is set for internal speakers, audio set from HDMI and the volume is up. These are things you might have already tried, including a different computer/TV setup. Lastly? Try a different adaptor although I'm leaning towards an incorrect setting on the computer or TV.

Jennifer, HDMI audio is often treated as a separate sound source. You may have to turn the volume up in windows sound settings. Also, you probably already know this: you need a cable for the audio out plug on the back that connects to your speakers.

Depending upon your A/V device. The device has it's own volume control but, some A/V devices also allow you to control it via their device. Hope that this helps.

Yes and No. For a while after changing the volume, the volume and time are displayed. After, the screen scrolls a sort of screensaver text of useless info about the unit.

I am having the same problem (I hadn't noticed the volume level though). Anyone have any ideas?

Yes, the audio levels are available on the LCD screen when the appropriate display is listed. Additional details are available in the below link. http://service.us.panasonic.com/opermanpdf/DMCGH4_ADV.pdf#page=207

It displays whatever is on the computer screen. The audio part isn't great though so I have my audio coming out of my computer speakers half the time. That could just be an error on my part.

Yes, the sound is already part of the HDMI input. It will be stripped out and used in the SPDIF output (the output HDMI will still include the sound). Please note that SPDIF outputs sound only for "A" input set

Ben: The answer is no, you would not hear the HMDI pass-thru audio on your speakers. The HDMI audio would follow the HDMI output to the TV. Your separate audio connections would be required to hear the audio on your speakers. The HDMI switching in this pass-thru case is meant to save your from having to run separate audio connections to you your TV.

I think so. I am using the HDMI and the VGA ports and it has no problem with that. The HDMI is connected to a projector and the VGA to a standard monitor. It detects both just fine, I assume it would be the same with the display port as well.
