[ATI] HDMI Audio disconnected when MP turn monitor OFF (2 Viewers)

[azzuro]

Ok. Must try. But first cleaning home. Wife instruction . If not. You know the story lol

 

[azzuro]

So. Tested this day dyring cleaning lol. I have try to all uncheck. And let windows manage the screen. The screen go off and the audio too.

Homey you use sound from hdmi on your dev machine ?
Can you say me driver gpu driver ? And the hdmi audio driver.

Turn off monitor shutdown screen only if MP Screensaver is activated.

Homey you use sound from hdmi on your dev machine ?

Nope, only video (no speakers in my monitors).

HD4000 driver version is 10.18.10.3958 (30-9-2014), no audio driver (using onboard audio with 2.1 speaker setup).

Given the fact that i don't experience this problem on my HTPC (which does have both video + audio over HDMI > Receiver > HDMI Splitter >> TV + Projector), it might be a HDMI handshake issue.
On my HTPC i always turn off the TV myself when listening to radio/music, and never had the audio stop.

But i was able to reproduce your problem on DEV, and there i don't have audio over HDMI.

Ah ok. I use audio driver on hdmi connection..

 

[HomeY]

I use audio driver on hdmi connection..

So your ATI card is also set in Windows as default audio device?
That might explain it MP thinks your audio device is gone, but then again... That checkbox should have fixed that :/

 

[azzuro]

Yes. Hdmi is set as defaut card.
I must try with winamp and look if monitor is shuting down.

 

[HomeY]

Yes. Hdmi is set as defaut card.

Then i it's normal. You tell MP to turn of your monitor, which is listed as default audio device. So that means you remove/disable your default audio device and then the sounds stops.

 

[azzuro]

Yes. I think. Vut i dont why i think audio & display was not sync.

 

[Sebastiii]

Yes. I think. Vut i dont why i think audio & display was not sync.

What do you mean ?

For sure, if screen goes to blank (screen saver) and we have Audio from HDMI, Windows remove the audio device and then MP stop playback (Radio/Music/Video) but only if the option 'stop playback when device audio is removed'.

If we uncheck this option, MP can lead to a crash because no more audio device and MP try to play something and in most of case, MP CRASH lol.

 

[azzuro]

I dont have crash ! [emoji6]
But i think its not related to mp.
Nobody have hdmi audio use ?
Connected to tv or amp ?
