Help! Feel so stupid ...
 

I've hooked up everything in my new place - TV, HD box, DVD player, cable modem/wireless router, computers, set up the wireless network - and everything works EXCEPT that I have no audio with the DVD player. Video, subtitles, everything is great, except ... no sound. There IS audio with the TV alone. I've changed out the HDMI cable. No dice. Does anyone have a suggestion?

This is so embarrassing. :headshake:

Pls speak up. I can't hear a thing you're saying.

Are there multiple remote controls? Have you located them all and used them all to turn up the sound?

Did you glue your finger in your ear again?

Is it just HDMI from DVD to TV?

"This is the quietest room in the house. No one can hear us in here."
"What?"

Yes, straight HDMI from DVD to TV. I bought a new one in case the first one was defective, but still no sound. There's only one port for HDMI on each component; I can't see how I could screw it up. :yelsick:

that's weird.

Have you played around with the menus for both the TV and DVD to see what sort of sound you have selected?

Did you have or do you now have a home theater surround sound thingy? (what glatt said, only phrased so that it appears to be a different suggestion, so that I have something to contribute here).

I'll check the DVD menu when I get home. The TV has sound when cable is used. I don't have any other speakers hooked up, though - I'm just using the TV's speakers.

Are you switching the TV to the appropriate (HDMI) input, i.e., are you on the right 'channel'?

You might count the 'pins' on the cable, and compare that to the number of 'holes' on the TV...or vice versa. They should be equal, btw.

you need a new transfuser combobulator

???

It's not God?

I went through the inputs - I can label a different 'channel' DVD but it stays on the original input. The only other label is 'composite' - there isn't an input labeled for HDMI. I checked the cable - it's compatible. So I must have the inputs mixed up, but I can't figure out how to change the DVD to a different input.

I actually have two of those. I will sell one. 500 bucks, slightly used.
