Samsung LN-T4671F RCA Jacks Audio Problem

[sef3rd]

Hi,

I have a Samsung LN-T4671F HDTV and just recently had a Sammy tech replace the main board that has all the HDMI and RCA phono jacks on it. I did have a problem where none of the RCA phono input audio jacks worked. This resolved that problem. However I am trying to get my Dell PC connected to the TV via HDMI/DVI cable and RCA cables from the sound card. The picture is great but I am getting no audio from my sound card to the TV. I am specifically using the RCA phono input jacks that go with the HDMI port for the video. Samsung stated that my PC was too old and these RCA input jacks were looking for another type audio signal. This is crazy! I replaced my sound card with two other new cards and still have no sound from the TV. I know the cables are OK because I can play the PC audio through my stereo receiver.

All the brain trust, I really need your help. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

Also is it possible I can route my audio from the sound card to the video card and use the sound and video through the HDMI cable?

Thanks much!

Sam

I don't know how that could be... we're just doing stereo analog here, right?

(3.5mm stereo cable to 2 x RCA)

That is my theory. How hard can this be? I'm beginning to wonder if Sammy had these jacks for this purpose. Have you heard of someone routing a cable from their sound card to the video card and use the HDMI/DVI for video and sound?

What kind of videocard are you using? There was a similar thread with a Samsung set here

Looks like the issue was resolved in the AVSforum thread

Not sure if this is applicable to the problem you're having or not.

I think I am using a VisionTek Radeo HD2400 video card with two DVI ports. I just read the link about downloading drivers and may try that. I hope that resolves the problem. I don't know what else to do. After reading that thread it may resolve the problem.
