Hi everyone:

I have tried hooking up my iPad to my tv using the hdmi input of my tv. I just attach an hdmi cable to the tv and use the apple Apple Digital AV Adapter connected to the ipad.

However, no sound comes thru the tv speakers.

Can anyone explain why this is happening and if there is away to Play audio/ sound thru the tv while watching video thru the iPad?


Thanks.

It depends on the app. I use AirVideo on the iPad and it works great using the HDMI adapter. However something like HBO won't work via HDMI.

What app are you using?

I think it don't support audio natively but some apps will .. Try a line out from the head phone to the line in on your tv ?
