PPC Mini works with Samsung 46" LCD at 1360x768 (sort of)

Greetings.
I just purchased a Samsung 46" LCD panel with the intent of using my PPC mini as a home theatre. I connected the mini to the LCD and once I turned off overscan, the display looks very good. The on-screen text is clear and sharp and the colors look great.
I am having a problem, however, displaying graphics such as DVD movies. It looks that when I play DVDs there is a bit of pixellation and the blacks look washed out.
The guys at BestBuy told me that this is due to the mini not producing a video frame rate fast enough. Is this true? If so, will the graphics processor in the Intel mini work any better?
Thanks in advance.

Have you checked the refresh rate! On my screen anything above 60hz can cause problems with the PPC mini.

Does the iPod Mini Work with Windows?

I am thinking of buying an iPod mini but I don't have an Apple computer. Does the iPod mini work with Windows efficiently? Thanks....

Hello Ian,
Can you be really specific about the necessary Windows XP updates needed? I run XP Pro on a rather new computer and just got an IPOD mini. I'm ready to tear my hair out because iTunes seems to crash my computer every time I change one CD for another. iTunes runs REALLY, REALLY slow for me. Also read on the board that iTunes 6.0 and the mini don't work well together. True or not true?
Thanks - Genevieve

Solved!
Go to Solution.

it should pair with it, there might be some advanced features that wont work but the basic ones should be fine.
i used an HS 500 on a samsung A 358 ( i think it was the model) and it worked very well for calls.

TV yes if it has a VGA, HDMI or DVI input
Mouse and keyboard: I have no idea since you provided no information as to which ones you have.

Lenovo not working with samsung Lcd TV.need advice...

I am using a Lenovo 3000 N100 series AQ1 768 laptop.Its got no external graphics card.I want to connect it to my Samsung LA32B550 LCD TV via a vga cable.
I have all the hardware fixed but there seems to be something missing on the configuring section of the laptop settings that i am missing out on.I have installed the Presentation Director for lenovo 3000 series and also using the hotkey Function + F7 .still the problem persists and i do not get the output on the lcd screen.
One thing i should let you know is that as soon as i am turning on "attached" in the second monitor option in the display settings it turns active but when i say apply it reverts back to inactive.and the Presentation director says theres a configuration problem on the display.
Any help in this issue would be highly appreciated cause i the purpose of spending so much money on the LCD is to see the output on television of the animation work i do.Hence i need the output on screen .
Thanks a lot in advance.

Is G4 PPC Mini compatible with Dell 2407FPW and DVI?

I just bought and returned a Samsung 225BW monitor because I couldn't get my G4 PPC Mini to work with it using the DVI port. I previously had a Dell 2405FPW working perfectly using the DVI with this exact Mac Mini, but I see it has been replaced by the Dell 2407FPW. Before I make the big splurge, can anyone confirm that the Dell 2407FPW actually works with a G4 PPC Mac Mini using DVI (hopefully, out of the box)?
If not, can anyone say if the 2407FPW works with a 1st Gen Intel Mac Mini (I can probably make a trade if need be).
TIA

I'll answer my own question:
it works just fine - no issues at all...

What displays does the mac mini work with?

and what kind of plug do they work with I'm getting one off of ebay a 8GB model from 07

Any good common brand should work fine. Pick something that is 1080p that suits your budget and is of a suitable size for the room.
Note that currently there is a graphics driver issue with the HDMI output as well as the mini displayport to VGA adapter, so when you connect a TV via either, you may have glitches on screen or just a black screen. Reportedly Apple is working on fixing that.
PS: The TVs are LCD TVs with LED backlighting or LED edge lighting.

Will the G-Drive Mini work with the Thunderbolt to FireWire adapter?

I'm closing in on buying a new MacBook Pro, but the lack of FireWire on the new retina models is worrying me. I've seen a lot of negative responses in regard to the Thunderbolt to FireWire adapter, specifically in regards to the G-Raid mini - most of them noting it's the dual drive that's the issue.
So would any of you happen to know - does a G-Drive mini work well with the Thunderbolt to FireWire adapter? I will be doing a lot of heavy video editing if that makes any difference.

I found out after purchasing a Retina MacBook Pro that you can in fact use the G-RAID Mini, the way to do it is to have two Thunderbolt to FireWire adapters, plug in the first one to the drive and the computer, wait for the drive to start clicking, and then plug the other cable between the computer and the G-RAID on the second port.
This obviously only works if you have a rMBP as you need the two Thunderbolt ports.

Image Capture no longer working with Samsung SCX-4500W

Out of the blue, Image Capture is no longer working with my scanner (Samsung SCX-4500W). Until today, I have had no problems, but now Image Capture will only complete the "overview" but not the "scan" itself. I get the message that the "scanner reported an error." I have tried restarting, unplugging cables, etc. but nothing works. I don't think there is a problem with the scanner itself -- it is able to scan using the built-in "scan to PC" function, but not Image Capture. I am using OS X 10.6.1. Any suggestions?

Try running a repair disk permissions. This is done via the Disk Utility application. Reply if you need help to do this.
Also, do you have another application you can scan with? Note that Preview will use Image Capture, so you need some other application. As a test, you could download Picasa from Google which works well with TWAIN scanners.

IPod Mini works with FireWire, won't work with USB

This one's frustrating.
I have a generic P4 3.2Ghz PC running XP Pro SP2. It used to work fine with my iPod Mini. I then had some problems with usb drives, including its internal drives and the iPod. Eventually I bought the USB/Firewire cable, and all has been fine synching over Firewire since then.
I've now bought my wife a Nano, and I wanted to check (before she opens it) whether the USB connection to my mini would work (nanos not working with Firewire). Nope. If I connect with Firewire, it shows up as a disk in Windows, and in iTunes. If I connect with USB, it shows up as a disk in Windows, but iTunes can't see it.
I've Reset the iPod, Rebooted the PC (many times throughout the process), uninstalled and Reinstalled iTunes and the iPod software (freshly downloaded from Apple). Tried all the USB connections on the box, and another cable.
Any practical suggestions? If her birthday present doesn't work, there will be sarcasm
PC Windows XP Pro

I HATE WINDOWS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
So it now works. I "just" had to uninstall the "PCI to USB Enhanced Host Controller" in Device Manager. Plugged the iPod straight back in, and it appeared in iTunes.
Now to see if I have to do this every time I synch over USB - annoying as I'm saving up for a 6G (whatever and whenever it turns out to be).
Thanks for your time anyone who's read this.

Do mac minis work with regular dell monitors?

I need to kno this because i am thinking of buying a mac and want to kno if it will work with my monitor i have for windows. And if so, will it be worth it?

Yes, Dell monitors work in perfect harmony with Mac Minis. I used to have an old Dell monitor (left over from our previous PC), and when I used the adapter that comes with the Mac Mini to convert it to the appropriate formate (DVI or VGA or something), it still looked sharp. So its definitely worth it. Plus you save money buying a new monitor.
