#HDMI Audio AppleHDA [Guides]

OS X Intel HD Graphics/AMD/Nvidia HDMI audio

Clover HDMI audio enables HDMI, DP and DVI audio with patched or native OS X AppleHDA.kext. HDMI audio ACPI edits are enabled with dsdt edits, edited ssdts or Clover injection/dsdt patching. Clover provides audio and graphic binary patching while preserving native kext installation. Supports Intel HD Graphics and/or AMD or Nvidia HDMI audio.

cloverHDMI detects and installs the correct ssdt(s) and patches the Intel framebuffer for the connected display(s) enabling OS X HDMI audio.
