DisplayPort... audio newbie?

I look forward to my accuracy M6800 arrive (8 days more!) to replace my 6-1/2 years, Latitude D820.

I read up on the features of DisplayPort and found that v1.2 cables should be used to support audio.

I currently use a NEC EA232WMi monitor with my Latitude, in connection with a VGA cable.  However, it has a DisplayPort connector and it seems to support audio (specifications).

I don't see any information in the Dell documents, but I'm assuming that the precision M6800 Displayport does support audio.

Am I wrong?

Yes

  • 32 envy: no sound on HP Envy 32 via mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable on Mac mini

    I recently bought a HP Envy 32 monitor and hooked it up to my Mac mini using a mini DisplayPort (i.e. Thunderbolt) DisplayPort cable. The video works fine @ 2560 x 1440, but I have no sound. The output sound in references to system preferences "the selected device has no output settings" for the 32 envy. The sound works fine when I use a HDMI cable, but then, the resolution is limited to 1080 p. The Mac mini is a mid 2011 model, which is able to transfer the audio via DisplayPort, SAA as far as I know. Any suggestion on how to solve this problem?

    Figured out how to get mini-displayport audio to work with the HP Monitor (I have a Macbook Air)

    In addition to choosing the HP monitor HP ENVY 32 audio in the PREFERENCES SYSTEM-> SOUND->-> OUTPUT

    An adjustment should also be made to the AUDIO and MIDI CONFIGURATION.  You can either do a search for it in the finder, or it is in APPLICATIONS-> UTILITIES-> setting up Audio and MIDI

    1. Open the app
    2. In the left menu, select DisplayPort
    3. Format of... Replace with 48000,0 Hz 2-channel 24-bit wide

    Once changed, you should be playing audio from your monitor.

    Good luck.

  • external connection monitor turns off / mutes sound

    Moving of Windows 7 music, Photos and videos>

    We have a laptop Dell XPS running Windows 8. When connect us an external monitor to the monitor, the sound port is disabled, or through the speakers of the laptop or the headphone jack.  If the external monitor is disconnected, the sound comes back immediately. There seems to be no way to have both an external monitor connected and get her - isn't there some hidden settings specific to laptops or something?

    What Dell XPS laptop - and most importantly, what type of connector and what type of cable do you use?

    Assuming that you have a 'mini displayport', see these two debates:

    If the port minidisplay computer laptop XPS does audio support (and based on the first link, I wouldn't trust necessarily Dell support to give you a correct answer), it is unlikely that linking this port disables the internal speakers and the headphone jack.

    I suggest that you focus your research in support of Dell forums.

    Hey Buddy,

    That display the port do you mean exactly?

    Only display port that carries the audio is also the HDMI port.
    For all other ports display as VGA, DVI, S-video, etc. you need an extra cable for audio.

  • Tecra R840-111 - is displayport compatible audio?

    Hi all

    I'll buy a displayport-hdmi adapter.
    I know that displayport can handle audio signals, but it depends on the specific manufacter/chipset/driver...

    Thus,.
    pouvez displayport to my audio signal of support of Tecra R840-111?

    Thank you!

    Marco.

    I agree with Brixx. Display on your Tecra port should be able to process the audio signal too.
    What I can say is that you should find high quality and follow the instructions how to activate it.

    Please send us some comments and a link where you bought this adapter.
    It may be useful for other members of the forum.

  • ProBook 6540 b: no audio signal through Displayport

    The Displayport video output on 6540 b does support audio? If so, how I would allow sound through displayport through the windows? I was not able to get sound to participate in one of my TVs that has DisplayPort inputs.

    Hello:

    It's possible this is the case.

    There are a few PCs that do not support audio out of the view port.

    I was hoping that it works.

    What would you say to the manage audio devices in the hardware and sound section in the control panel?

    You see two audio devices listed?

    The laptop speakers would be the IDT audio and if you see an Intel HD audio device, for the display port.

    The only suggestion I can offer would be to connect to a display port, select the Intel HD audio device in the window and see if it works.

    If you do not see the two audio devices listed there, so I doubt he's has supported audio out of the view port.

  • HP 8440p: DisplayPort to HDMI Audio problem has never been resolved?

    I have a HP 8440p with NVS3100 graphics card. I tried all suggestions get the DisplayPort to pass audio through a DP-HDMI adaptor without success. I even tried to buy several cards in the hope of findingone that worked, even the own expensive adapter from HP.

    I cannot conclude that it is now established that the HP 8440p with the discreet NVS3100 (not the graphics card Intel integraed) simply cannot get audio of the DisplayPort adapter to a HDMI adpter? If the answer is he can't then I start shopping for a new laptop computer with native HDMI and DisplayPort not troublesome.

    Thank you

    Redlyne

    Hey Dude.

    If you want that works = it is confirmed in Windows 7 (x 64) and Windows (x 64) 10 = - and assuming that you have the NVS3100m GPU, all you need to do is to install the older drivers NVIDIA 188.31, file name sp47020.exe and can be found once you go to HP/Support/Drivers on your machine and after selecting either Windows 7 Professional 64 bit as your operating system. This driver also works well to win 10 x 64. It is probabbly not the fastest graphics driver or, after being released in 2010, but at least audio on DP/HDMI works :-) Have fun!

    If not clear, contact me.

    Best,

  • EliteBook 8540w: no audio signal through DisplayPort

    I'm trying to connect my laptop to my TV through DisplayPort. I bought an adapter DisplayPort to HDMI cable. The image is fine, but no audio is coming through. I don't see TV as the device in the sound Panel, and I have only (not Intel) IDT audio control panel.

    Any ideas?

    Solved.

    It was in the latest versions of the NVidea driver. I uninstalled the driver and then installed the driver that was originally shipped with the laptop (Oct 2010 driver version). The TV came immediately as playback device and its working now.

  • T410s - no audio via Displayport to HDMI adapter

    A week after I got my T410s (Intel graphics only) I bought an adapter Displayport to HDMI. Video HD works fine, but no audio signal is transferred. As internal speakers work.

    What makes me sad, it's like no other audio device Conexant Smart Audio internally to appear in the list of the reading devices. No device - no signal...

    Device Manager also displays under ' Audio, video and game controllers' 'Intel(r) Audio display. The information box indicates that it works correctly. But what connection use this controller?

    Anyone have any idea if the material of the 410 s (without dedicated graphics card) supports the audio via the Displayport? Perhaps only the proper drivers are non-existent?

  • Audio X1CT Mini Displayport support?

    Hi all

    I'm trying to find out if the mini displayport on the carbon X 1 Touch supports audio when connected to a TV via HDMI. I guess I could buy an adapter first and then see if it works, but I thought it would be a better method. I have been through the documentation, but I guess I missed it - any pointers welcome!
