Mountain Lion: HD3000/HD4000 with AMD or Nvidia, Working Together

[qb84]

This is awesome. Do I need HDMI to enable AirPlay? or a specific audio card? I keep trying but every time I get an error on the console. I use the standard 3.5mm port for audio.

I'm guessing it has something to do with audio, but airplay mirroring (audio only) works fine. Any ideas?

Airplay mirroring requires HD3000/HD4000 graphics enabled (with or without a display connected), macmini5,1 or imac12,1 or 2 sysdef and AppleTV2 or 3. Attach a copy of IOReg. [Guide] How to Make a Copy of IOReg.

Thank you, I do have an HD3000 GPU (i5 2500K) and I've tried while connected and disconnected to the monitor. I have both ATV and same result .

 

[qb84]

I was able to make the HDMI audio work with the nVidia card. I was hoping that was the issue but nope .

Have no idea what you mean by "computer is turned off for 10min or more...". Are you saying that once the computer "cools down" it won't start? Try booting in verbose mode and reply with where it stops.

see here, i create another help request for this problem and i hope somebody help me.

Hi toleda, your work is amazing, thanks for that.
Now my problem: Apple Cinema Display (not the thunderbolt one) works perfectly in my discrete nVidia quadro NVS 295 (double display port).
But my 1080 Samsung via integrated HDMI seems to have artifacts and glitches, and it's totally unusable. Here are my specs
- CPU: Intel® Core™ i7-3770T Processor http://ark.intel.com/products/65525/...up-to-3_70-GHz
- Motherboard: ZOTAC Z77-ITX WiFi (with atheros wifi card) http://www.zotacusa.com/zotac-z77-it...77itx-a-e.html

My installation process could be found here http://www.tonymacx86.com/mountain-...c-z77-itx-wifi-hackmini-6-1-a.html#post529016
Finally I attach my IOReg
Another question: I'm using discrete card because mini DisplayPort on board doesn't seem to work at all with apple cinema display, nor in windows 7.
Still in contact with zotac support, maybe it's the board. I don't have hdmi audio devices, so can't try it (I know miramar and minihack got hdmi audio via mini DisplayPort).
Any ideas?

Another question: I'm using discrete card because mini DisplayPort on board doesn't seem to work at all with apple cinema display, nor in windows 7.

I tried to get DP to work with the Zotac Z68-ITX WiFi and it never worked. Zotac support claimed DP worked in their lab but they could not get it to work on my system. I returned the motherboard.

On my P8Z77-I Deluxe, DP works perfectly, HDMI works perfectly.

Your IOReg shows a display attached to a DP connector in the framebuffer. Is the display connected to the motherboard the TV (i.e., HDMI>TV)? If yes, The framebuffer needs an edit. If no, what is connected to the motherboard DP connector? Reply with the an IOReg with the TV on the motherboard HDMI connector.

For HD4000 HDMI audio, edit dsdt/HDEF/layout-id to 0x03, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00.

No TV, man, I think it was my brother's 24" Apple Cinema Display but I've made a lot of combinations, actually I couldn't remember exactly, sorry!
Here are two different issues:
1- Mini DisplayPort seems to not working just with Apple Cinema Display, because connecting Samsung 1080 via HDMI-Mini DisplayPort adapter works perfectly (in Windows 7) with both BIOS config (primary display integrated graphics or PEG).
2- HDMI in OSX still doesn't work with discrete gpu.
The only combination I can use is Primary Display PEG in BIOS, use ACD as first display, and Samsung as second. But Samsung is not working as I posted before (artifacts).
Tried system config Macpro 3,1 and macmini 6,1 (actually don't know if really necessary): no luck
Strange things I noticed are that randomly chimera doesn't show my windows HDD, and going back to initial config (removing nVidia NVS 295) every time I reboot I have to unplug and replug hdmi cable.
You posted as first display igpu, but unless I remove NVS 295, the system doesn't boot, hanging apple logo (I attach verbose mode screenshot).
I attach two ioreg both with acd plugged into NVS as first display, but one has Samsung plugged into hdmi port and the second it's plugged into Mini DisplayPort via hdmi adapter.
Please check dsdt/HDEF/layout-id to 0x03, 0x00, 0x00, 0x00

Don't use macmini6,1, no power management; use macmini5,1. dsdt edit is fine.
It will be difficult to get both graphics system to work until each is working on its own. Suggest you start with the NVS 295, set BIOS primary display to PEG. Remove the HDMI audio GFX0 injection (connector-type). Verify the ACD works and the Samsung works with a DP2HDMI adapter. By the way it appears the ACD uses USB audio not DP. When that is working, remove the NVS 295, set BIOS primary display to iGPU, try the TV in the HDMI port and the DP port with a DP2HDMI adapter. It appears the physical connectors are mapped to the wrong framebuffer connectors:

Hi toleda,

were you able to look into my issue, it's been a few weeks and I still haven't been able to make airplay work while the nvidia card is installed .

Thanks!
