Anthony,

I use my computer to play Blu-ray discs. That is one of the reasons I am
upset that I cannot get the computer connected with HDMI to output any
audio. Today is a new day and I hope to get back to the problem. I was on
chat with Comcast for hours yesterday and they haven't a clue! They work
from a script and began with:

Problem : running an hdmi cable from motorola dch3416 to a Westinghouse
HDTV. No audio. Also looking at the compatibility of attaching the dvr to a
yamaha av receiver but get an error message.

Comcast > Connect the cable from the wall outlet to the Cable In input on
the DCT. 
James_ > done
Comcast > Connect a cable from the Video output on the DCT to the Video
input of the TV .
Comcast > Or Connect a S-Video Cable from the S-Video output on the DCT to
the S-Video input on the TV 

When she started talking about using an S-Video cable I knew I was in
trouble! I indicated that everything worked fine with component cables for
video and RCA cables for audio and I wanted to utilize the HDMI cable for
both audio and video, her next script began with a description on how to add
a VCR to the mix!

We went in circles and it ended up that she said that what I wanted to do
SHOULD work, but since it didn't, resort to component to TV and optical
digital to receiver for audio, oh, and have a nice day :)
