No Audio

Hello. I have my computer connected to my TV, but I can't seem to get the audio to play through my TV. I'm using a 3.5mm Phono Audio cable, with one end going from my PC to TV. I've attached both an image of the cable and TV, does anyone know if I'm using the wrong cable? Or is there another reason?

Thanks!

Re: No Audio

Have you checked you are not plugging into the TV's left/right phono output which would take the sound away from your TV and to an amp and speakers?

Have another look as often TV's have a 3.5inch input for sound, possibly near the vga or hdmi ports.
You'd then need a 3.5inch to 3.5inch stereo cable.

Another possibility is that you may need to enable the output in one of the menu's on the TV itself.

Re: No Audio

Further looking into this it looks like your TV has an audio in jack so a 3.5inch to 3.5inch stereo cable is what you would need.

Re: No Audio

Some tv's what have a pc port will not play sound. They are just monitors.

reading the specs on that TV, the audio jack in is tied to the PC video in, so the mini jack will relay when viewing the PC video in.
