Hi I have been unable to setup sound via HDMI with my RL70 and Panasonic TV. Video is working fine, and sound output through speaker port is also working
System: (full spec can be found here
Acer Revo RL70 Nettop PC - Nettops | Ebuyer.com)
Revo RL70
Processor
- AMD E-450 1.65GHz
- Hudson D1 Chipset
Memory
- 4GB DDR3 1333MHz SDRAM
- Dual-channel support on two DIMMs
Hard Drive
Graphics
After receviing it I loaded up Windows 7 64 bit as I want to use it for both XBMC and Skyping, torrenting etc and have a lot more experience with Windows rather than Linux.
After updating all windows update, I then started with drivers which I got from the Acer website (
Download) as well as using the AMD Catalyst Driver automatic finder (
AMD Driver Autodetect).
Everything is working fine except getting sound through the TV, e.g. video is great have adjusted overscan and all that.
The TV is a PANASONIC - VIERA TX-P42C2B 42" HD Ready Plasma TV which I have previously had a Revo 3700 running Windows 7 64 bit with no problems, e.g. sound and video running via HDMI.
In playback devices there is only 2 options showing, no sign of an option to run through HDMI to TV and I have checked the 'show disabled and unconncted devices' tab. It does show Speakers and also Digitial Output but this not seem to correspsond to the HDMI cable. If I plug in a speaker via front port of the RL70 sound is working fine.
I am beginning to run out of ideas and wondered if anyone could offer any suggestions?
Thanks,
Pete
