I need to spend a bit more time testing this out - but it definitely works, and it definitely plays in surround from all my available speakers (I have a 5.1 setup, so can't test the other 2 surround channels). When using straight HDMI output, my Amp read it as 'PCM Audio' but when using 'Encoded HDMI' it read it as 7.1 DTS Audio giving the sample rate and bit rate. To my amazement it worked!! - I got glorious 7.1 DTS-MA into my Amp, and it sounded simply stunning!! In VLC I had two HDMI audio devices to choose from 'HDMI' and 'Encoded HDMI' (or something like that - I'll have to hook it up again to be sure). Open System Preferences from the Apple menu and choose Sound Click the Output tab and look under the Type list to find the HDMI option and select it.
#PLAY SOUND THROUGH HDMI FOR MAC PRO#
I tried opening them up in VLC media player (version 2.1.5) and hooked up my 2014 MacBook Pro via HDMI to my Amp. How do I switch to HDMI audio on Mac Change Sound Output from the Mac to TV via HDMI. Therefore out of curiosity I decided to download a couple of HD demos from that have DTS-HD MA 7.1 audio tracks embedded in them. However, I realised my work laptop is a 2014 MacBook Pro with HDMI out. I was quite happy with this arrangement, until I get around to buying a blu-ray player. Up until now I've not been able to try this sound format out as my current 2009 Mac Mini only sends audio through the Optical Out, so the best I can get is Dolby Digital 5.1 pass thru via S/PDIF. Question: Q: HD Audio Pass Through on Mac Mini HDMI. It handles DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 and Dolby TrueHD 7.1. I plan to use a Mac Mini as the core AV processor in a high end 8 channel sound system in a home. I've just bought a new 7.1 Amp, the Yamaha RXV677 from Richer Sounds. I know this thread is a little old now, but I've been wondering the same thing myself - so I googled it and came up with this thread.
