How to connect speakers to a computer via HDMI

HDMI is a modern port that allows you to output various types of data. But it’s important to know how to use it.

What is hdmi?

HDMI allows you to transfer high-quality audio information and photos. It is universal, and is suitable for downloading any type of data. This allows you to use only one wire instead of many (it becomes easier to understand, because you do not need to work with other wires).

What problems may arise when connecting

There are times when connecting HDMI from the speakers, the sound disappears. This is especially true for Nvidia graphics cards. They have their own controllers that transmit the signal. When you connect a device, these controllers automatically start. But for some older versions of video cards, you need to purchase a separate SPDIF wire (it can be bundled with a video card). It is necessary to connect the video card and the motherboard chip. We do the following:

1. We connect the board and card connectors using SPDIF.
2. We go to the Start.
3. We are looking for a search string. We introduce the word "sound" into it. Another way is to use the control panel.
4. We are looking for "SPDIF Output". Set it by default.

Attention! If there was no error with the choice of source, the sound will begin to work. If not, another source is used. HDMI will signal through any type of speakers (speakers or headphones).

How to connect speakers to a computer via hdmi

To get started, just connect the speakers to the appropriate port. If we need digital sound, it is recommended that you start the HDMI Audio Converter program. It allows you to broadcast the image on the TV, producing high-quality sounds.

After connecting the device, it should work immediately. If this does not happen, you should check the power cord (2 plugs should go from the speakers, one to the TV, the other to the outlet). If you are sure that the columns are on, then the problem is in setting them up. So you need:

1. Open Start.
2. Go to the Control Panel.
3. Select the Sound section.
4. A window will appear. In it, go to the "Playback" tab.
5. Select the connected speakers.
6. Right-click on "Select Use as Default."

It is not difficult to connect the speakers yourself. But it is important to follow all the rules and recommendations.
