My laptop is connected to a tv by an hdmi cable. but it is unable to run the correct...

i was just trying for the first time to play dvd through the xbox360 after a year using the same tv and hdmi cable.. (2 hdmi ports on tv, bought 2 thicker hdmi cables, individual connection for console and satellite box)..

as for the dvd playback with no audio, setting the xbox360 display discovery to "enable" now fix the audio.

had different problem with the laptop running win7 (using hdmi cable from satellite box to the tv). first time ever time audio transfer well to the tv and the laptop automatically muted.. then after that had to fiddle with the laptop setting every time,
had to disable the laptop speaker device before the tv takes over.

was never a problem with the tv or hdmi cables. was working well playing games, watching satellite tv or using the setup with different tvs..

The HDMI port on the laptop is designed to be used the other way around for example, how you put a HDMI cable into the laptop and connect it to a tv, therefore moving the video (for example) on to the tv. Basically there is only an output connection not
an input connection.

ehm good if I test the HDMI cable with a laptop connecting it to the same TV and it worked. therefore I don't think it's the cable or the TV

Try to use the HDMI cable that came with the console. Make sure all cables are connected securely into the correct ports. Check that your TV is on the correct source (HDMI) for signal. Check that the HDMI cable is connected to the “out to TV” port on the
console.

Also If your TV has multiple HDMI ports, check that your TV is connected to the correct one. Alot of TVs now have 3 HDMI connections, so make sure your TV is on the correct one your console is connected to. - Depending on your setup and TV settings, it might
be “HDMI 1”or “HDMI 2” or similar.

Hope this helps 😊

Ensure the HDMI cable is connected in the correct position of the console.

Have you tried different TV? or a different HDMI port on the existing TV?

Check thru TV remote that TV is on the correct SOURCE for Xbox.
