    Apologies if this is the wrong forum, but didn't really know where i should go!

    Purchased this bad boy....
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B003FMSIQ8/ref=oss_product

    Have all old equipment other wise! a technomate 1000 which i connected via a scart to rgb cable (scart from sat, rgb to tv) connected an amp via scart. This set up is working fine. Connect my iomega screenplay hd via hdmi, i get picture but no sound from the amp..... Any ideas? THe sound comes through the tv ok, but not through the amp :-( Of course i can run separate audio cable from the media player to the amp, but should I have to do that? am I missing something?

    Next on the upgrade list will be a better satellite decoder by the way! get some HD!

    Any help appreciated! knew to this hdmi game!

    What is the amp?

    What is the media file formats you are trying to play? What is the audio and video format?

    Could be the audio format is not supported by the amp? Maybe the Amp needs a firmware update?

    The amp is a magnavox mrd 260.
    I realised after that any auxiliary equipment to the tv doens't come throught the amp....

    With my old philips tv, I connected my magnavox amp to the tv via scart. Anything which I then connected to the tv vai scart or rgb came through the amp.

    Now however I have a technomate sat connected through the rgb and an iomega screenplay pro connected via hdmi. Neither play sound through amp, only through the tv.

    Currently I have the tv connected to the amp via the headphone jack on the tv. I assume I'm not going to get great sound this way! I'll try messing around with the tv settings today, couldn't see anything in the manual :-(

    EDIT: Media file was avi. divx with mp3 audio
