I am using HDMI to connect to my Sony HDTV (j_e_d_70 helped me select this method - thanks JED)
My problem now is that the AUDIO from an application or CD does not transmit to the TV.
I am running Windows 8 and the sound configuration utility recordnizes the SONY TV and the "test" sound is heard on the tv ok.
Any recomendations?
 
Solution
right click on the speaker icon located on the bottom right corner, click playback devices..that will open a list, select the tv and right click, set as default


hope this helps

Thanks Alvine,
It worked - the audio is working on the TV!
Now its not working on my PC -should I get it on both simultaneously?

Thanks JED,
Now that I know how it works I can switch back and forth as needed.

Thanks Wanderer,
It took me a while to find out you need to change the audio/speaker assignment BEFORE you bring up the application.
