HDMI Out?

[David Dinwiddie]

I've been trying to get the Brennan to output HDMI out as my DAC has 4 HDMI inputs.

HDMI Audio directs the B2 audio to the HDMI (TV) output.  I set the switch as directed.

But then

TV output - Raspberry Pi has an HDMI output - at the moment this is unused by B2 - actually you will see lots of diagnostic information if you attach a TV. I think a TV user interface could be a great - but I’m in two minds because the Web interface can do the same and more - because you can click on web buttons and links.

So which is it?

Hi,

Have you tried the HDMI fix

The HDMI output for audio is the connection I use all the time.  In the WebUI, the box for Audio on HDMI (TV) must be checked.  The one problem I have is that my AV receiver (which has the DAC) must be already on and the correct input selected before I turn on the B2.  So when I forget, I just need to cycle power on the B2 and wait.

"The one problem I have is that my AV receiver (which has the DAC) must be already on and the correct input selected before I turn on the B2" -- Bingo!  That worked for me!  That's going to take some time for me to get used to, but it works!
