I have bought the DVI to HDMI cable, plus HDMI cable to connect to tv. I have also connected the stereo jack plug 2 x RCA phono plugs from tv to laptop but no sound. advice please are how to get the sound or have I purchase the wrong items

Many thanks

If you have the audio cables plugged into the correct port, with Panasonic, you need to go into the menu on the TV and change the audio for the HDMI port you are using from digital to analog.

If you can't find it, open up the owner's manual for instructions or you can surf through this thread. Should be at least a couple of posts there with pics. (hint: do a search of that thread for 'Panasonic')

Thanks for that, I will give it a go

A little more time today - here's a post with pics for a Panasonic - realize that was for a specific model and the ports for that one may not be the same as for your model.

If you have everything plugged into the correct ports, then you only need the last pic there to change the audio to analog.

If you have not already done so, it's time to open your owner's manual to find out which HDMI port(s) may be used with separate audio and which audio port must be used in conjunction with it.

Hey bobtomay, many thanks that worked your last post. I had to swap my HDMI around use HDMI1 for my laptop. great stuff
much appreciated it
