GTX280 audio over HDMI

Hi,

I've just today thought about using the DVI-HDMI adapter and S/PDIF cable on my GTX280 and for some reason I cannot get the audio working. I have attached the audio cable from the S/PDIF out on my mobo to the audio port on the GTX280...is there something else I have missed? (I have tried both ports on the back of the vid card)

Does having both ports occupied have anything to do with it?

Any help on this issue is greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance 🙂

You need to change the audio output in your audio cards software, to output via SPDIF.
 
Try reversing the plug on the motherboard. What board are you using? At work I test on 680i boards, and I've never had to change any audio setting for it to work.
 
Thanks for the replies.

it turns out, or it at least seems that way, that I had to turn on an option in the BIOS for PLUG and PLAY...weird.

Thanks again 🙂
