but yeah i tried only tv and that didn't work either.

Try a different resolution for your display.

**wing_gundam** · 03-16-2008, 06:36 PM

okay its working on my comp again

i dont think it was a resolution issue, but maybe.. (it sets it automatically when playing a movie)

***06GAsi*** · 03-16-2008, 06:36 PM

Any luck?

***06GAsi*** · 03-16-2008, 06:38 PM

Ok cool. Get it to work on the tv again to. Players like Windvd are picky when it comes to resolution.

**wing_gundam** · 03-16-2008, 06:38 PM

also the HDMI cable wasn't trasmitting sound - its supposed to right?

i see my sound card has a setting for it and it says it is, but sound is only coming out of computer speakers

Yes it should. Are you changing the display output when watching on the tv. You change this by the (Fn) key and (F5) i believe.

**wing_gundam** · 03-16-2008, 06:55 PM

Okay, its working this time after resetting the regional codes on either one or the other - that works for me. When I set to only my comp or only the TV it works but sound is only from the comp (even when picture is on the tv)

***06GAsi*** · 03-16-2008, 07:02 PM

Do you have a 3.5mm jack on the tv. Audio in options?

**wing_gundam** · 03-16-2008, 07:03 PM

yeah - i could hook it up that way, but shouldn't i be able to do it over the HDMI cable?

Yeah it should work. Have you tried updating drivers? Have you restarted the laptop? Restarts usually fix minor issues.

try going into your sound control panel, or the win dvd options and checkmark something like "use spidf"

spdif. Do you have the option for optical?

e60.deluxe · 03-16-2008, 07:10 PM

**wing_gundam** · 03-16-2008, 07:26 PM

I don't see any spdif?

sorry?

Well this error on your screen pretty much says right there that it's HDCP related. "Your display environment does not support protected content playback"

Wish I could help you more, but I don't have experience in this. Read the fine print or do some research on your computer and TV to make sure they support protected content playback.

This sh*t pisses me off SOOOOO Much, I'm ripsh*t for you now man...

You paid for your movie and now you can't watch it on your tv... F*CK Sony, F*CK their BluRay, and F*CK Content Protection....

EDIT: Ahh, looks like you've got it kind of working now, good luck with the sound...
