I want to stop Dell Dock d3100 Audio HDMI output.

I recently bought a d3100 dock and I use it to connect my Inspiron 13z with Windows 8.1 to multiple devices, including an HDMI monitor and stereo speakers.  It turns out that my monitor has built-in speakers and does not allow them to be disabled or cut.  They sound terrible, so I'd like to stop to send the audio signal to them.  Unfortunately, windows detects the Dell dock as a single USB audio device and I don't have the ability to send audio to the stereo output 3.5 mm without sending it also both HDMI outputs.

If anyone has a suggestion on how to use the HDMI output for video without sending audio to the speakers on my monitor, please let me know.  There are HDMI cables that have an audio connection?

Thank you, Chris.  It is not a Dell monitor that I'm connected, I use an Acer B273h.  I tried to watch the sounds-> playback settings in Windows.  The problem there is that the d3100 Dell presents itself as a single USB audio device.  There is no distinction between the 3.5 mm stereo output and HDMI audio output.

However, I found a solution.  I remembered that HDMI and DVI have the same video encoding, and also, my monitor has a DVI input.  So, I picked up an HDMI cable to DVI, which now sends only video to my monitor.

Problem solved!

  • 52 "Regza TV Audio - HDMI-output optical audio problem does not

    Hello

    friend of mine has a Regza 52 "LCD TV.
    She's trying to connect its apple TV & Optus Fetch device (cable TV) on the HDMI inputs and then having the audio outpot of optical fiber audio outpot to his BOSE amplifier.

    My understanding is that when you select an HDMI input, then the video and audio must be addressed.
    So you should see the video on the HDMI channel and need to hear the sound.

    What is happening is that she sees the video selected on the HDMI channel, but not audio, the sound heard is actually free in the atmosphere of television station that had been retained.

    We tried all the TV menu options successfully.

    How do we get the optical audio output to be on the instructions of the HDMI input?

    Thanks for the help
    Peter

    Hi Peter

    All this should not be so complicated. Using an HDMI cable, you can transmit video and audio to external device to TV signals. For example, if you use the HDMI 1 port and turn on the V you should see the picture and hear the sound of the TV.

    For audio, you can use an external device like Hi-Fi receiver or this BOSE amplifier. Using the optical audio output of fiber on your TV, you should hear the TV sound look no matter what external device is the source or which channel you. What you see on the TV the sound comes through this amplifier.

    I have this BOSE unit, but all I know is that when you want to hear his amplifier the right port or channel must be enabled there.

    I use my Toshiba TV connected to the Yamaha V537 amplifier with optical cable and it is listed under AV4 port. So when I want to hear the sound on my Yamaha I need to enable port AV4 on it and its is here.
    Some additional settings on the TV are not necessary. Optical output on the TV is always on (see the red light on the inside).

    Check this please on BOSE amplifier.

  • S2340T, audio HDMI output

    I have connected my new monitor S2340T to my new XPS8700 but cannot get the built in speakers to work by setting the audio source on USB (using the 4 buttons on the right side of the screen).

  • "Dell Dock has stopped working" - very annoying!

    MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 normal 0

    Hello

    I can't tell you how much time and effort that I spend trying to solve this problem, but it seems impossible.

    I bought an Inspiron 1525 laptop only 4 months ago and was very happy with the functionality of Dell Dock as it made life easier when you work with Office. It was until the Dell Dock bananas bleeding no longer works. This is quite annoying, because everytime I turn on the computer I get the error message about 5 times in a row! And when I try to send the error report I get another error! How frustrating...

    I tried to get rid of it and reinstall but it won't work.

    Called Dell and they told me, they offer no support for this and I would need to pay ££ for assistance.

    Now it's ridiculous! I'm not asking the software, 'Geniuses Dell' decided to install this piece of defective software in my machine and now refuses to provide assistance! Shame on you Dell!

    Well, if you are a user and having the same nightmare, please let me know if you have found a solution, I'll be very grateful and you can light a candle.

    My husband has a Dell Inspiron Zino HD, who had the same problem.  I went to www.delldock.com.  They have a free download for dell dock.  I did the download and fixed it in this computer.  No more error Dell Dock.  It's worth a try, and it's free.  Good luck.

  • Reference Dell Dock... Gone

    I have a new Inspiron running Windows 7, last night I pastors a updated Java and then got the message that "the Dell Dock has encountered a problem and needs to close...". "Please talk to Dell this problem" it says an error report is created, but when I try to send the error report it is "Threr was an error please try again" at the same time, there is one box that appears telling that "Dell Dock stopped working Windows is trying to find a solution to this problem.

    I tried to do a system restore, but the only date I have to restore it is this morning, and the Dock was not working at the time

    I also downloaded the Dell Dock and installed it but no go...

    I've never done a factory restore and don't know if the lack of the Dell dock is worth, could the update of Java have caused to this?  Someone at - it a fix for this or have any ideas?

    I found this on a forum for Microsoft Windows.  AND THIS MARKET!

    In Windows 7 the file

    "C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Stardock_Corporation\DellDock.exe_Url_zerevpyj2cwvrpvdb3tli4avbxq3yq3p\2.5.0.1527\user.config.

    tends to get corrupted, expecially when an abnormal termination of Windows or loaded is stuck.

    Remove all the "C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Stardock_Corporation' directory and restart DellDock.

    The directory will get regenerated and the program is running.

    You don't need to uninstall or reinstall anything.

  • Dell Dock does not automatically run at startup

    Previously, I put my dell dock to run automatically at startup. Now everytime I turn on my computer, it shows me a message saying: 'the Dell docking station has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. »

    There is an option to "Restart the Dell Dock", but the same message appears again.

    When I try to click on the button 'Send error report', the answer I get is always, 'there was an error when the error report is sent. Please try again. »

    Is there a way I can disable the autostart upward while I encounter this problem again? Or do I have to uninstall the Dell Dock altogether? Happened last month, and it's getting pretty boring.

    Uninstall the Dell docking station might be the best course of action.  Type "programs" in your Start menu and choose the outcome of the search for programs and features .  Then look for Dell Dock in the list and remove it.

    You can go to http://delldock.com to reinstall if you choose (although personally, I do not see why someone wants to double the number of toolbars on the screen).

  • cannot force the player to stop playback of the audio file

    Hi guys,.

    I'm stuck with the pretty easy task. I have an audio player, start playing the audio file and I just want to stop it, do not wait until the player arrives at the end of the media. But nothing happens! The media playing contiunes. And there is no response at all to my call to the stop method.

    Here is my sample code. I start player and is going to stop it in 3 seconds.

      private void play(InputStream path, String type) {
    
        try {
            // create an instance of the player from the InputStream
            player = javax.microedition.media.Manager.createPlayer(path, type);
            player.realize();
            player.prefetch();
            VolumeControl volumeControl = (VolumeControl) player.getControl("VolumeControl");
            volumeControl.setLevel(100);
            // start the player
            player.start();
    
            new Timer().schedule(new TimerTask() {
            public void run() {
                try {
                player.stop();
                } catch (MediaException e) {
                // TODO Auto-generated catch block
                e.printStackTrace();
                }
    
            }
            }, 3000);
    
        } catch (final Exception ex) {
            UiApplication.getUiApplication().invokeAndWait(new Runnable() {
            public void run() {
                Dialog.inform(ex.toString());
            }
            });
        }
        }
    

    BlackBerry jde 4.5.0

    device Curve 8310

    I understand where the problem was.

    So be patient while creating player and pass the correct audio type.

    In my case I have played the .wav files created with "audio/mpeg" type player. That is why all the evils.
