Hooked up Chromecast to an old TV with no HDMI ports using a DVI adapter. I have picture but no sound. Hooked up audio (red and white) cables and TV external speaker but just getting static. Any suggestions?
 
Here's the reddit thread for you question. It seems that not all adapters are created equal, and the thread has suggestions about what ones will work. Have a look

After much trial and error I bought a Roku 1 which solved all my issues. Works with older and new TVs. Save the Chromecast for an HDMI TV and Roku much, much cheaper than a new TV. Love the Roku!
