Hello there. Having trouble getting sound via HDMI. The set up is a Lenovo laptop running Windows 8. This feeds via HDMI an Onkyo TX-SR705 amp. Then again via HDMI I'm feeding an LG flatscreen tv.

I get perfect video but no sound.

If I connect the PS3 to the amp instead of the laptop I get sound and video. If I connect the laptop direct to the tv then again I get both sound and video. I've tried swapping the two HDMI leads over. I've tried resetting the Onkyo to factory default settings.

Any help appreciated!

Many thanks

It sounds like it should have worked but since it didn't, I have two options in mind. Depending on the capabilities of your tv you can connect your laptop directly to the tv and then send the audio from the tv to your amp. The other option is to run the video and sound separately, use the hdmi out port as a video source and connect the amp up using the headphone jack.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it
