[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1521815, member: 24160"] Trolle: Without a doubt, Phillips has just taken over as the absolute worst user guides for a TV from any manufacturer I've ever seen. Bottomline - your guess may be as good as mine if you want to get audio on the TV along with the video. Based on what I'm reading - my best guess, there is no way to get a separate audio input to work with an HDMI input. I'm not even sure the only audio input there will work with the VGA port on that TV. Option 1 - VGA You're going to need a mini-displayport to VGA adapter - I would recommend getting Apple's if you can still find one. - and a VGA cable. Audio - Based on the picture - you're going to need a 3.5mm stereo mini-plug cable like [URL="http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004G7O1PI/?tag=macforums0e4-20"]this[/URL]. Option 2 Video only - mini-displayport to HDMI cable or adapter and a HDMI cable. Video and audio, you're going to need something that will combine the audio and video from your Mac, like [URL="http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=104&cp_id=10428&cs_id=1042802&p_id=5969&seq=1&format=2"]this[/URL] or [URL="http://www.monoprice.com/products/product.asp?c_id=104&cp_id=10428&cs_id=1042802&p_id=6331&seq=1&format=2"]this[/URL]. Then add a HDMI cable. No idea where you'll find something like those last 2 adapters there in Estonia. [/QUOTE]
