I got a new TV a little while ago, an LG 32LH3000 (http://www.ebuyer.com/product/165561). The other day I set up an old computer to use as a media centre on it. I've got this working fine, my only problem being audio. I have one of the cables which is a headphone jack and then separates into the red and white jacks the other end, which im plugging into the back of the tv where it says audio component in, however i'm not getting any audio out of the speakers.

Should the sounds just happen when plugged in everywhere or are there normally settings to change? I've been trough menus and can't find anything

cheers for any help

how are you connecting your computer vga to the tv?

The audio leads need to goto an component input and not an output. Theyre shouldnt be any settings you have to change.

What tv? some have a single jack input for audio in, it should be labelled on the tv next to the port.

It's the LG in the first post, there is a single jack labelled RGB/DVI audio in, I guess I'd need a male to male cable for that? Cheers for help
