[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1293882, member: 24160"] [B]jiminee:[/B] Where are you plugging in the audio cable? You [B]must[/B] use the R/L jacks directly below the 2 HDMI ports on the back of the TV when connecting via HDMI. If you are using those ports for the audio cable, does the static disappear when you disconnect the audio cable? If yes, check the ports (can of air) on both the Mac and the TV to make sure they are not dirty - [B]while they are turned off[/B]. Have you tried moving that audio cable around - as in away from other equipment to see if the static gets any better or worse? No go, replace the audio cable. If you are getting the static even while the audio cable is unplugged, then I'd replace the mdp to HDMI cable. You should not be getting sound of any kind without that audio cable being plugged in.
