Hello all,
1st time/1st time, and going nuts with this issue, and I have found nothing else on this particular sound issue...so here it is:
1.) I have a 2009 mbp, which I just bought refurbished, and has worked great.
2.) I have a brand new LG 60" plasma, also works great.
3.) I have a Belkin MDP > HDMI adapter. Picture is great.
4.) Finally, I have a Dynex mini-jack to RCA (headphone jack to red/white) audio cable.
5.) PROBLEM: The video works GREAT (after buying 2 diff adapters and a lot of grief). Now,
I do not have sound!!! From what I have read (after a LOT of research and reading threads) the model 2009 MBP I have does not support audio through HDMI. I tried the male/male 3.5mm from the headphone jack to the "Audio IN RGB/DVI" (single prong on each side) cable, and no luck. So, after reading, I learned I needed the headphone to red/white rca cable to fix this. I plugged one end into the headphone output, and the red/white cable into BOTH sets of audio IN inputs in the back of my LGtv. No sound.
There are NO settings that make this any different in the sound setup selections on either my tv, or my mac.
Also, under Preferences>Sound>Output, there is only 1 election, which changes from "internal speaker" to "headphones" when the RCA cable is plugged in to the MBP.
6.) I do not know what the problem is, but I am going nuts, and REALLY want to watch Netflix so I can catch up on SOA and watch the new episodes! Can any of you computer geniuses help me? I apologize if this is answered somewhere else, but I cannot find it anywhere on the web, and have tried everything I have found.
Thank you in advance!!
