I Can't Get Sound On Firestick For My TV

[Erinville]

I'm not sure of the model number for my TV as it's bolted on the wall but I know that it's a 32" Plilips TV with Pixel Plus2, Flat TV with Ambilight.
The connections are EXT 1,2 and 3, and VGA.
There is a connection right under the middle of the TV & I presume that it's VGA.
There must be a converter on it as a HDMI cable inserts into it.
My problem is that on my Firestick I have a perfect picture but I have no sound.
Any ideas?

You can’t get sound from a VGA connection

 

[Erinville]

Well, whatever connection it is the Firestick is fitting into it and giving me a picture but no sound.

Have you tried a different channel spoke to your provider if iptv tried it in a different hdmi port

IF you lift the set off the bracket you will/should find HDMi ports (probably 3)

Or even on side of tv I have 2 on side of tv and 1 at back of tv

There's no HDMI ports on the TV.
It's at least 15 years old.

If there's no HDMi ports you cannot use a firestick

Any converter I can get?

...this is the kind of thing you're after (note it has an audio cable...you need this, so make sure whatever you buy is a complete set!)

Cheers for the info.

Does it need to be powered?

 

[NazoDoop]

Ideally into a plug socket with the provided adapter

 

[bazcfc1]

Or any usb plug for a phone charger

 

[Erinville]

Well, the Firestick will be plugged in from this.
Does that count as powered?

....the power supply (plug into wall) and lead that comes with and attaches to the firestick is all the power you need

 

[Erinville]

Thanks for that.

...no worries! Hope you get sorted out
