deeveedee Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 I just discovered that the keyboard Volume controls on my HP EliteBook 850 G7 work for increasing, lowering and muting audio with VoodooHDA.kext 4.0 in macOS Tahoe 26.5.1. The pleasant surprises with VoodooHDA.kext keep coming. Well done, Devs! 2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/314406-voodoohda-3x/page/43/#findComment-2851070 Share on other sites More sharing options...
luxinhaus Posted June 26 Share Posted June 26 @Slice <key>LayoutId</key> <integer>80</integer> of all IDs, why 80? does it represent yours or auto detect?

Auto detect will be zero. Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/314406-voodoohda-3x/page/43/#findComment-2851403 Share on other sites More sharing options...

If set to zero, it'l fallback to old function aka traditional? Approximately, but the development is not finished yet. If you don't want AMD HDMI audio then you can use version 3.0.5 Traditional. It's perfect. 1 1 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/314406-voodoohda-3x/page/43/#findComment-2851452 Share on other sites More sharing options...
deeveedee Posted yesterday at 11:43 AM Share Posted yesterday at 11:43 AM (edited) I haven't yet had a chance to test UniversalHDA.kext. I feel a loyalty to VoodooHDA.kext which has served me well, so I'd only want to switch to UniversalHDA.kext conditional on the following: Is UniversalHDA.kext the "next version of VoodooHDA.kext" and thus replacing VoodooHDA.kext? Will VoodooHDA.kext eventually be providing support for Intel iGPU HDMI (not just AMD dGPU HDMI)? If not, does UniversalHDA.kext provide support for Intel iGPU HDMI?

Slice Posted yesterday at 12:48 PM Author Share Posted yesterday at 12:48 PM 1. AFAIK yes. 2. I think no. AppleGFXHDA provides support for some Intel iGPU but we didn't have attempts to make such audio. Dunno about UniversalHDA. I am busy last week but the VoodooHDA is not finished yet and I planned to continue. The purpose is to make AMD HDMI stable and appropriate for more AMD cards. More than AppleGFXHDA can. 1 2 Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/314406-voodoohda-3x/page/43/#findComment-2851597 Share on other sites More sharing options...
deeveedee Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago I now have HDAUniversal working well on my HP EliteBook 850 G7 laptop in one Tahoe test Volume thanks to MaLd0n's updated kext here. I will maintain two Tahoe test volumes so that I can continue to experiment with both VoodooHDA and HDAUniversal. If either solution eventually enables Intel iGPU HDMI, that would be awesome, but for now, both solutions are outstanding. Thank you Slice and MaLd0n and any other Devs helping behind the scenes.
