Video out question

Question - I bought a cable at Fry's to do video out. (goes into my headphone jack and has the red, yellow, and white cable coming out) I get sound but no video. what gives? Do I need an Apple branded cable? Did I do something wrong? How can I do this?
Also do I want the setting on PAL, or NTSC?
thanks

Is this polling for the chip something that started with the 2.x firmware. I didn't have a problem using the 1.1.x firmwares, but I made the leap directly to 2.1 yesterday and now I can watch video on TV.

Z10 video out questions hopefully someone knows.

before I start buying adapter I figured I would ask. Z10 seems like it could be handy for video out document sharing at meetings however 95% of all projectors we come across are vga . anyone tried this. Would you need a micro hdmi to vga adapter with sound or would headphone jack still work? so if you needed sound you could plug into headphone jack and just have micro hdmi to vga?
any help would be great before spending money on all sorts of adapters.

I thnk I'd go from the Micro HDMI to VGA

Matx mobo video out question?

Hi folks.
I plan on purchasing a MS-6533EG mobo for a htpc project.
The spec shows "Complete TV-out/Digital flat panel solution and MPEG-2/1
Video decoder"
Searches show a SIS301B add on card for this function.
There is no info (that i can find) as to how to get this card, or access tvout with the SIS651/962L chipset.
Any info is much appreciated!

3GS Video Out Glitch

Any ideas why my 3gs IPhone , OS 3 "Locks up" when I try to output video files using Apples' Composite AV Cables?
I can choose my video, and play it fine in the phone. But as soon as I hook up the cable, it stops playing and the video function buttons don't respond at all...and all I have on the phone is a freeze frame.
Also, the image is not being passed through the phone to the cables because I see nothing on my TV screen.
Yes..this is an official/expensive Apple Composite AV cable and for the price..it should be working fine.
Ideas/Suggestions?

You need to move your recorded videos onto the "iPod" iPhone app in order to play them through a television. To do this, use Image Capture or iPhoto on a Mac or simply pull the videos off in My Computer if you're using a PC. Once the videos are off the iPhone, drag them back into iTunes. You can then reload them into the iPhone, and they'll appear in your iPod app.

IPod Classic Video Out Question

Hello Everyone,
I would like to connect an iPod Classic 160GB to my car stereo with a screen and use TV out to navigate the menus of the iPod. Is this possible or does the TV out function only work on actual video and not navigating through menus? Thanks.

I have exactly the same issues. I can't believe what I hear when I compare Ipod classic with iphone 4S. The same song play on IPhone 4S with EQ set to Classical is perfectly smooth and clear but the same EQ in IPOD classic have the sound clipped and distorted. The drum cracks into many pieces instead of a solid 'TUD!' in iphone 4S. Try this songs on both devices, you will know what I mean:
Ann Sally - O Barquinho.
IPOD classics plays it like a piece of badly torn fabric, but on IPhone 4S the sound is perfect. Stevenfromwi is correct, it is about harmonic distortion (clipping of the sound) which no one can find it pleasing. Just try out the song above by setting both IPOD and IPHONE to Classical EQ and you will know what I mean.
When I search the reviews of IPOD classics, I am surprised that expert reviewers have long known about this issue of IPOD classics and put it as one of the long-standing and thumb-down problem of IPOD classics. See the review below:
http://www.expertreviews.co.uk/mp3-players/272431/apple-ipod-classic-160gb
("...It's disappointing that Apple hasn't completely fixed the audio distortion..." ~ extracted from the article)
I will have to sell away my IPOD classics and find other media player now since I really cannot accept the clipping of sound. It is very dissapointing!!!

How do you get the video out to TV to work on the iPhone 3GS

I cannot get the video out to TV to work on my iPhone 3GS with iOS 5.1.1.
I am using the $40.00 apple composite AV cables and nothing seems to work. With the cables connected to tv input nothing shows up in general settings for video out. Or anywhere else for that matter. I have tried many different TV's, sometimes I get audio but never never ever video . Does anyone else have this problem or better yet the answer?

Thanks for responding to my question about not being able to get the video out to work on my iphone 3GS. In answer to your question i couldnt get any video to work at all. But, i do know what was wrong now. The whole problem was the brand new $40.00 set of apple composite AV cables i just bought was no good. This afternoon i took a trip to the nearest apple retail outlet (30 miles away) with phone and cables in hand. And after doing a little head scratching of their own they decided to try another set of cables, and low and behold the darn thing worked like a charm.I was very impressed by the service at the apple store even though i didnt buy either product from them. I wonder if there is a bad batch of cables floating around out there because it looks like other people out there are having the same problem, which is why i didnt really suspect the cables. Thanks again for responding. Micdude001

Video out from iPhone 3GS to TV.

Can I use the standard (3 phono plugs on the end) video out lead I already have to view keynote presentations from my iPhone 3GS on my TV/Projector?

Same problem here.
I can't get any video out of my faithful iPhone 3GS running iOS 6.xx.
I have been browsing Apple discussions for solutions and most of them seem to point out to a faulty Video Composite cable. This is not my case.
I can rule that out 100%.
Old iPhone 3G running ios 3.1.2 works just fine as well as does iPhone 4, with the same cable.
I have tried with a friend's TV and cable and iPhone 3GS and we have identical issues.
(different cables and phones, same issue).
Please note all testing has been done with genuine Apple Video composite cables.
So this points out clearly to a iphone iOS issue combined with hardware.
It appears that starting from iOS > 5.0 video output has been disabled on earlier iPhone models prior to 4.
It would be nice if Apple could issue a Knowledge Base document on the issue as that would save many people further testing and waste of time.
This document http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4108? isn't really complete enough as it stops at iphone 4.
Has anybody the ultimate answer on this issue?
Are there any known work-arounds?
Thanks and regards
Pieter

A few Video Out related questions (yes I searched)

Hello there! I've been searching the net and these forums for awhile now and didn't find answers to these specific questions. Any help would be appreciated.
Question 1:
I (now) know that the iPod Classic is extremely picky in regard to getting video signals to the TV. I know that Apple requires that I purchase its cords and/or its Apple Universal Dock (not to be mistaken with the iPod Universal Dock, which is discontinued) in order to enable output to my TV. However, I have read in a few other places that the iPod Universal Dock will work with the iPod Classic. Is this true? If I plug my iPod Classic into the iPod Universal Dock will I be able to use a non-Apple cord that connects from the headphone jack in the dock to AV cables (Yellow and White) on the TV? Also, will the S-Video on the iPod Universal Dock work with my iPod Classic? I really don't feel like going out and spending another $100 on the new Apple dock and cords.
Question 2:
In regard to the iPod Universal Dock, I have noticed that there are three part numbers: MA045G/A, MA045G/B, and MA045G/C. Is there any significant difference between these? Will all (or none) of them work with my iPod Classic?
Any other tips on how to get around having to spend another $100?
Any help is great. Thanks!

The info provided by the link <http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300233> is incompatible with users' answers posted above.
I am getting ready to try a 3rd-party S-Video to composite cable to play video from my new 80G iPod classic via an older Universal Dock (w/S-Video out) to a TV system. Will report back on results.

I can't find video out on my iphone 3gs

I bought an apple component cable for my iphone 3gs and/or 4th generation itouch. But even when the cable is plugged in I can't find the video out setting.
I realize that since the new update to 5, this setting is in a different location (under general), but it is still not showing up.
New Samsung TV is not recognizing anything, no sound, nothing. Cant seem to find a straight forward answer online.
I was hoping to watch netflix from phone through TV.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

iphone 3s and iphone 4 dont support mirror so it will only use the video out when it's in an supported app test with youtube and maybe video apple app
netflix may not support video out

Video out on 3GS?

So is the only to get video out from the iPhone 3GS with the Composite video cable from Apple, the one that hooks into the bottom of the iPhone? Can it not be done through the headphone jack like the iPods? I hate to pay $49 for a cable if I don't have to.

Your assumption is correct. Only the Apple Composite or Component AV cables can transmit video out on the iPhone (all models). The headphone jack cannot transmit video out. I was also disappointing when I learned this, as I had an old Apple iPod AV cable that connected to the headphone jack. I bought the Composite AV Cable for $50, and it works great with photos, music, movies, and YouTube.

Iphone 3Gs TV OUT- Audio OK, Scrambled Video

While my first generation iphone's TV OUT works fine when connected to my TV, My 3GS TV OUT delivers Audio but only a scrambled Video image. Any thoughts?

Almost the same thing here on my end, although I have no sound AND signal screwed up. Apple store said I needed a Universal Dock to use with my Component AV cable, which didn't sound right, because I've used the cables in the past with iPod touch without the dock?? Anyway, bought the dock, hooked it all up... exact same problem. Now I'm researching online, and it looks like there may be a hardware compatibility issue with the new 3.0 software. Still looking, but this shouldn't be so difficult to hook up, so something is going on!

Question about video out on my iPad2.

I purchased a Skiva Medioflow composit Video / AV cable in hopes of being able to stream apps like ESPN Watch and Big 10 to TVs with only RCA inputs. What I get is audio and no video. It appears from what I read, only a few apps, such as itunes and netflix allow for video out. I've read that it is up to the app maker to allow video out. I know at least that itunes works with the cable. Is there any way to make this happen? I do not want to jailbreak my ipad or anything like that. If there is a way, I would appreciate your input.

Thanks, I was afraid of that. The more reading I did, the more I came to this conclusion. I left a request with the Big 10 that I would like the ability to do video out.

Equium L20-198: Question about BIOS and s-video out

I seem to be having two problems with this and that is when I put the bios password on above it on the screen is rubbish, scrammble symbols. Also it is supposd to come with s-video out but there is a black plastic in place its place

Hello
I know definitely that S-Video port is not available on every Equium L20 model. Please check the notebook specification although I think that your model should have S-Video port. Please contact your local dealer and talk with them about this.
Your unit has valid warranty and if you think that there is some technical problem contact service partner and explain them the problem. Please dont make some BIOS update experiments if you are not familiar with this procedure.

Video Out from early 2009 Mac Mini

Is there any way to go from one of the video outs on the Mini to a converter of some sort, then to video input or S video input on a TV monitor? I see that the Mini DVI to Video does not work with my version of the Mac Mini. Any other solutions?

What do you think wont work?
A DVI monitor will work on DVI or DVI-I.
A DVI-I monitor will work on DVI or DVI-I
Dont believe me? Try it ( or read the spec).

You commented as to why make the special connector. I gave an answer based upon the original question to this post which is about +_getting a analog composite video or S-video signal to a Mini, NOT a DVI monitor_+.
Apple makes and sells an adapter to provide composite and S-video from the DVI connector of certain Mac models of Macbook Pro and Mac Pro. (I use one.) But since the Mini does not produce the analog signals, the adapter will not work, even if you could physically plug it in to the Mini. So if Apple did as you say and made the computer with the connector to use either a DVI-D or DVI-I adapter, in my example, if the aforementioned person with lesser technical knowledge plugged in the S-video connector to the Mini, they'd be angry that it didn't work. Again to avoid the "Why would Apple sell something that wouldn't work on my computer if it fits?!" type of support calls.
