Hi Steven Perhaps you can be more specific here about what's not working. Here I've got: - dell xps13 i7 [1] & intel nuc i5 - in 14.1-RELEASE and CURRENT - capable of playing audio & video via HDMI - I use the drm-kmod drivers & X11 not wayland Can you link: - what freebsd version this is for - relevant parts of your dmesg for just 1 system - if X doesn't start at all, whats in xorg logs? - what kmods / video drivers you have set up on it - set `sysctl hw.snd.verbose=2` and then attach `/dev/sndstat` info More info is in https://docs.freebsd.org/en/books/handbook/multimedia/ I use mpg123 or mpv for quick tests, for audio & video respectively.
