I don't know if I am asking for black magic... but with a GTX card (GTX 770 SLI) can you use the DVI for video...but also the HDMI for digital Audio out? I am trying to hook up an AV receiver to my PC and still get 5.1 sound....which apparently is very uncommon... :/
Man this is hard lol
Or...does anyone know how to get digital 5.1 audio to the damn thing? Optical and coaxial only support Stereo (2 channel)

Can you do video and audio out... at the same time? The 4-in-1 plug has component outputs; does this include the audio out? In other words, can I output a movie clip to TV or projector?

You should be able to by using the headphone jack that's located below the USB port right? I'm thinking you can get a component cable adapter for it or just use a long audio cable to connect it to your TV or whatever you want to connect it to. I wonder also if the proprietary VGA port has audio and video output.

My "quallified" guess would be: No. Video only.
Why need that audio out put from VGA port, it have it's own audio jact, very easy just plug it...
Exactly. It works just as it should work.
Hi Everyone,
I plugged my A7 through the HDMI port to my projector, it works with no issues whatsoever! But the sound jack doesn't work once the HDMI is plugged. Is there a way to force the sound to work even if HDMI is plugged in? Or even the speakers?
Thank you,
Marc
I have run into this issue with other devices, not the A7 yet though.
Once HDMI was connected the device only wanted to send audio over it and disabled all others.
My projector had RCA L/R out, but no internal speakers.
What I ended up having to do was get a RCA -> headphone jack adapter from Radio Shack and use regular PC speakers from that.
Probably not the solution you were looking for, but I hope it helps.
Possible solution
The option I'm looking at right now is an HDMI switch. It has 2 inputs for HDMI and outputs 4 HDMI and an RCA. I'm not really insterested in dishing out the 70$ for it though.
i'd like to connect my arc to my tv..but..it doesn't have hdmi input.
is there a way to connect the phone to tv?maybe an adaptor or something?
or I could use 3.5mm to RCA TV out cable,does arc have tv out through 3.5mm jack?
Thank you so much
There are HDMI to Composite/RCA converters, but for that price, you can get a cheap HDMI equipped telly.. (starting at around 80 Euro)
no -it can output via HDMI or for media you can use the media server app to stream directly to a DLNA receiver.. assuming that your TV doesn't have that built in.. however.. if you've got a PS3 that will. Xbox might (not sure about that.. just guessing!) and a lot of blueray players will too..
So I want to hook up my tablet to my older tv for some gaming or videos every once in a while, but this thing is old and only has DVI, no HDMI. I already have a converter so video comes through fine.
I was hoping I could still have audio come out of the tablet speakers somehow but it doesn't seem possible?
What about through the headphone jack? Can audio come out of there and hdmi at the same time? That would solve the issue. (Should have tried this, but didn't think of it at the time and now i'm at work)

Boy was that tough looking four posts below yours, I didn't even have to use the search function. How do you operate a tablet blind, or does someone do it for you?

that's a different question and I looked there first. my video is fine, he's talking about converters and receivers. all I asked was if audio still comes out of the headphone jack at the same time the hdmi is plugged in. didn't want the threadjack

Ugh (*insert sarcastic remark here*)
He needed to get audio out through the HDMI just like you should do. READ!

Since it seems that this is just too much for you to grasp, I'll spell it out for you, now pay attention closely OK?
HDMI out of your tab to a splitter. One side of splitter use your existing HDMI to DVI to the TV. Other side of the splitter goes into the box mentioned in the thread I linked to. Out of that box, two RCA to your TV. Got it?
Just tested on my unit. Audio is normally on HDMI, when you plug-in headphones, the audio stops on the HDMI and is heard on the headphones.
A splitter will work as described or get the cable to convert the headphone jack to RCA audio.

Thanks. I was looking for a way to get the sound out through my speakers when using HDMI on a computer monitor without audio capability!
if you connect a dvi inpout on your tv, you must set the tv on EXT dvi, and if you connect the rca audio, you must set the tv on an other incoming !
No ?
What kind of an adaptor do I need to connect my nexus 10 to my TV (it's an older TV, not flat screen, not HD. I don't care about losing the HD, just the size.)
Thanks!
Micro HDMI to HDMI, DVI, or maybe even Component (not 100% sure on that). If the TV doesn't have any of that, then you'll likely need an Analog converter to go from HDMI to VGA, Composite, or RCA.

Check your TV. If it has HDMI, you want micro-HDMI to HDMI. If it doesn't have HDMI, but does have DVI, you'll want that.
If it has neither HDMI nor DVI, you'll need a new TV Or an HDMI to analog converter.
Nexus 10 to CRT TV connection
I have a nexus 10 tablet running stock 4.4.2. I bought an hdmi to rca converter from amazon.com and a micro hdmi to hdmi cable so that I could hook up the tablet to my old sharp crt tv. When I plug in the connections I am seeing a stripe coloured screen that says 'no signal ntsc'. when i turn the switch on the converter to pal it says 'no signal pal'. Could you tell me why this is happening and if anything could be done so that I can see the content from my tablet on my tv? Do I need any software/app installed to make this work? The only ports on the tv are the composite rca ones. I know the tv is old but its its 55 inches and in perfect working condition so I really don't want to purchase another so please if there is anything you know that would help I would be more than greatful.
My setup: the microhdmi to hdmi cable plugged into the micro hdmi port on the tablet, then the rca cable connects to the back of the tv and the rca ports on the converter. Should work?? Help me please. Thanks in advance.
