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 ?
Does anyone know why this keeps happening.
If i plug in my HDMI cable and go into music, the audio will play out of the TV for about 1 second and then it will stop (music players keeps playing the track)
I can't then get it back, the only way of doing so is to disconnect and reconnect the HDMI cable
HDMI is just really buggy. A lot of us can't get sound output working at all. I've tried various HDMI cables and TVs with no luck.
1080 and 720 sound on but when switch to 4k no sound. If connect headphones sound on headphones but not on tv. TV is Techwood 40AO2USB 40" Smart 4K Ultra HD TV.
Not having sound on a fancy TV, that sucks. Did you try to swaps ports on the TV?
My MOJO was doing that while on 1020p. It worked when I switched with another hdmi input.
I tried all 4 ports
I connect Bluetooth speakers to get sound
In my tv no hdmi arc but support HDMI Audio out . what is the difference. And audio pass through missing after the update. Is any third party app for HDMI CEC for audio passthrough.
Are you saying your TV has a dedicated hdmi audio out? ARC stands for Audio Return Channel and it's the technology that can send audio through the same hdmi cable that is carrying video from a different source. In other words, you can pass video and audio to the tv, or the tv can pass audio back to the other device as well. This prevents the need from a second connection to pass audio from the TV when the TV is independently displaying content
