Voodoo90 Posted February 7, 2014 Share Posted February 7, 2014 Hello,I have a kinda strange problem.I am using Ozmosis and a R9 280X graphics card. So far I have used the DVI and the HDMI Out on the card. Without problems. But I wanted to enable the Sound on my monitor. And since DVI doesn't support sound, I want to connect it via DP. So I bought a DP cable.Now the strange thing.When I connect the HDMI and DP, nothing happens, I have a black screen on the monitor, only HDMI works.When I connect only the DP nothing happens, black screen.When I connect the DP and the other DP with a DP to HDMI adapter I have both screens working and I can enable the Display Port audio over the native DP cable to my monitor, but then HDMI audio ist not working anymore.I need both, they are very important. How come the DP cable only works the adapter is connected.How can I fix this? Buy a new cable? Anything else? On Windows it works just fine.

Voodoo90 Posted March 3, 2014 Author Share Posted March 3, 2014 Meanwhile I swapped my R9 280X for a Gigabyte Rev 2.0 version. But still, I can use DVI on its own. HDMI Output isn't working at all. Display Ports work, but only if one is used for a HDMI adapter. I can't use one Display Port on its own for my main monitor. Is there nobody, who can help with this?I/O Jones says all 4 connectors a detected. So where is the solution to this. Best solution would be main monitor to DP and TV to HDMI, both with Sound. I'd be thankful for every hinch. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/295912-displayport-oddities/#findComment-1999660 Share on other sites More sharing options...
