Hi hawk22 Yes, it works fine with DVD player (connected via scart). What I can't understand is why the HDMI audio device which my Asus...
Hi Yeah that's my point. Sounds and Audio Devices does not provide the option to choose any HDMI device. It isn't being detected. (I mentioned...
Hi rsinfo Thanks for the prompt response. Unfortunately, I've never been offered any such choice as you mention. The only options I get to...
I'm hoping someone can guide me in regard to setting-up a functioning HDMI connection between my PC and my TV. Hitherto I've used an analogue...
I think I may have caused us to be at cross-purposes. For clarity: I'm only temporarily utilising the X-over cable, while I play around with...

This is VERY embarrassing but they say confession is good for the soul, so here goes... I've now (only now!) just realised that all this time...
