Thank you!

Your post helped me getting HDMI Audio to work, great!

It may not be clear to people that that is what this thread is for, but I got it! HDMI audio and multi monitors...

My H81T 'mini' does more tricks now than it's big brother ... Thanks !!!

Toleda, maybe you'll find useful my test.
  • Motherboard Zotac Z77 ITX
  • CPU Intel 3770T
  • Display ASUS VN247 HDMI Audio (connected via HDMI cable or HDMI-miniDP adapter)
  • Bootloader Chameleon v. 2377
  • Mavericks 10.9.2 fresh install

The board has its connectors inverted.
You did help me to find the right mappature about a year ago (see red coloured steps here), then SJ_UnderWater created a bin patch first for Mountain Lion, then I modified it for Mavericks.
I attach ioregs for the three connectors (two HDMI and one mini DisplayPort) based on:
  • native AppleIntelFramebufferCapri.kext
  • a-90 edited AppleIntelFramebufferCapri.kext
  • b-90 edited AppleIntelFramebufferCapri.kext
  • SJ patch edited AppleIntelFramebufferCapri.kext.

The only config that allows all connectors to have HDMI audio is the last one (SJ patch) based on the post linked above.
Please check my attachment, (IORegs, Extra folder and SJ bin patch) and report any useful improvement.
Thanks

I know what the connectors do. An executable without the source is not helpful.
Make your own script, the Capri patch is:
Code:
\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x02\x05\x00\x00\x00\x08\x00\x00\x06\x00\x00\x00\x03\x04\x00\x00\x00\x08\x00\x00\x06\x00\x00\x00\x04\x06\x00\x00\x00\x04\x00\x00\x07\x01\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x01\x00\x00\x00\x40\x00\x00\x00|

hi toleda i hope you can help me with my strange issue. i just build a hackintosh by following tonymac buyer's guide the components that i used are as follows:

motherboard: GA-Z87MX-D3H
processor: intel i7 4770k
ram: 32gb kingston hyper X 1600mhz
graphics: intel HD 4600
monitor: hp w2207h

initially i had many issues on mac osx MAVERICKS setup but with all your guys support i made it and left with one strange issue, i connected my monitor with HDMI cable and every time when i boot to osx i will get the apple logo with grey background and after few seconds instead of showing me the user account screen it shows me some strange white and some coloured dots like there is no signal from hdmi (it looks like when a Television loses signal you get some kind flickering with all tiny dots) this happens for few seconds and then i will get to the login account screen and then everything is fine.

i tried changing the intel graphics memory size in bios issue remains same, updated bios firmware same issue today i took my hackintosh to a computer shop and tested with different monitors with HDMI because i taught may be my monitor has problem but issue remains same. finally i came back to my home and i checked with another old monitor with dvi cable and the issue is gone and the boot time decreased a lot i mean it booted so fast. because just after the apple logo screen immediately i got the login screen.

but i cant use this hackintosh with this 17 inch monitor and my hp monitor doesn't have dvi port only hdmi and vga ports. everything is works fine even the mac osx recognises the graphic card and shows intel hd 4600 in about this mac page.

so can you please help me to solve this issue i will be so happy.

help me to solve this issue
If the system is working, why is this a big problem?
What if the fix breaks something else?
You did a bunch of tests not mentioned in Post #1 and ignored Post #1, why?
See Post #1, Problem Reporting

The issue: HDMI port doesn't respond correctly. System boot loop after the bootloader screen (tried with clover uefi and chameleon last version).
How often do you boot only the Asus on HDMI? Hot plugging HD4600/HDMI crashes the Intel display driver. Appears to be a communication problem with Asus/HDMI. Try native Azul with Asus/HDMI to verify.

No need for 2 dsdts, add the layout-id back to the Clover dsdt. The config.plist/Devices/Audio/inject/1 is not necessary. Another tip, Clover can patch Azul, see toleda/audio_CloverHDMI
 
HD4600+/HD4000/HD3000 Framebuffer Edits

Thanks for the tips about clover, HDMI Audio works without Audio ID injection plus complete DSDT (layout id re-added).
The main issue about hdmi port still remains, though. Tried with native Azul, no way. I've never encountered such a behavior about hdmi port.
Do you have any clue?
