How to use the speakers of the Samsung LE32R86BD television with a computer running Windows 10?
Frequently Asked Questions - 12/12/2025
Response Notice-Facile

Your Samsung LE32R86BD television has built-in speakers and can be connected to a Windows 10 computer in two ways: via HDMI cable (recommended method) or via VGA connection with a separate audio cable.

HDMI connection (recommended method): Plug an HDMI cable into one of the three available inputs (HDMI 1, HDMI 2, or HDMI 3) located at the back of the television, then connect the other end to the HDMI output of your computer. Press the Source or Input button on the remote control to select the HDMI input corresponding to the port used. With an HDMI connection, audio is automatically transmitted; no separate audio cable is needed.

Sound settings on Windows 10: Once the HDMI connection is established and the correct source is selected on the television, open the sound settings of Windows 10. Right-click on the volume icon at the bottom right, select Open sound settings, then in the Playback tab, identify your Samsung television (usually displayed as Samsung or HDMI). Set it as the default playback device by clicking on Set as default. The sound will then come out through the built-in speakers of the LE32R86BD.

Alternative connection via VGA + audio cable: If you prefer to use the VGA connection, plug the D-Sub cable into the PC IN socket at the back of the television and connect it to the video output of your computer. At the same time, plug a stereo audio cable into the AUDIO (PC IN) socket at the back and connect it to the audio output of your sound card. Select the PC source on the television to display your computer's image and enjoy the sound through the speakers.

Troubleshooting: If no sound is heard after the HDMI connection, check that the television is selected as the default playback device in the Windows 10 sound settings. Also, increase the volume of the television itself using the remote control. Finally, ensure that the HDMI cable is properly plugged into both devices, as a poor connection may prevent audio transmission.

Precautions When Displaying a Still Image

A still image may cause permanent damage to the TV screen.

  • Do not display a still image on the LCD panel for more than 2 hours as it can cause screen image retention.

This image retention is also known as "screen burn".

To avoid such image retention, reduce the degree of brightness and contrast of the screen when displaying a still image.

SAMSUNG LE32R86BD - Precautions When Displaying a Still Image - 1

Watching the LCD TV in 4:3 format for a long period of time may leave traces of borders displayed on the left, right and center of the screen caused by the difference of light emission on the screen. Playing a DVD or a game console may cause a similar effect to the screen. Damages caused by the above effect are not covered by the Warranty.

  • Displaying still images from Video games and PC for longer than a certain period of time may produce partial after-images.

To prevent this effect, reduce the 'brightness' and 'contrast' when displaying still images.
