Convert from component cable to Stereo A/V + S-video for AppleTV

Hello,
We are looking for a converter cable, box, hub that will convert from component cable (red/blue/green) to Stereo A/V + S-video. We are hooking up a AppleTV box to an older Sony WEGA TV.
Anyone heard of such a product or work around?
We have not made the move to HD and would be bummed if this cannot work.
Thanks.

http://www.svideo.com/appletv2tv.html has a product that allegedly does this. I haven't used it, so you might want to do some more investigation before handing over the cash! It looks a lot cheaper than other Component->Composite converters out there. You would connect the yellow output from this box to the yellow input on the front of your TV (video). The red and white connectors on your AppleTV to the red and white on the front of your TV (audio). The unit also has an S-Video output, which you should use in preference to the composite if your TV supports it (higher quality).
HTH.

Iphone logo REMOVED from AV cable...so no more Video out from the Iphone?

I noticed that yesterday on this item they had a Iphone logo, and today in its place is an Ipod touch logo. However, they still list this cable under the Iphone cables section....I'm getting mixed signals here.

What app on the iPhone are you using? Some apps disable that feature.

Converting from 2D to 3D not working for me

I am trying to follow the tutorial "Converting from 2D to 3D" and it is 'not working for me.' When I open the image 'archer...' I do not get layers, but only the background image, and consequently no 3DAxis widget appears.
This is my first try at this, and I am stuck trying to figure out what is wrong.
I am running Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended, version 11.01 on Vista, with 4GB of RAM, 500GB HD
Processor speed 2200MHz
NVIDIA GeForce 7100
Memory available to PS 3255MB
Memory used by PS 70 percent
If anybody could please point me in the right direction, I would greatly appreciate it!

it can work with the Background layer just fine, go to 3d->New Shape from Layer->Cone (or whatever) and then select one of the 3D tools and it should appear. Note though that OpenGL drawing must be enabled in Edit->Preferences->Performance to be able to see it.

HDMI vs. Component Cables for iTV

Hello All,
I did not see a place to ask a questiona about iTV so I am asking it here if that is alright. If you have an iTV connected via HDMI and component cables can you switch between which input you would like to view? I know of someone who has both connected and can only show its picture if the HDMI cable is unplugged. Is there a conflich between HDMI and component cables?
Thanks A Latté

Component cable on standard definition input

Hi, I have an Iphone 3G with a component cable. I know this is intended for a high definition input. However, I only have a standard def input. When I plug the blue cable into the yellow video-in plug on the standard def TV, I only get a black and white picture, but no color. I don't get any video if I try the green and red plugs.
I know my problem would be solved with a composite cable, but I'm not close to an Apple store now, and I wold prefer not to buy a new cable. Any ideas for making this work with my current component cable? Thanks.

Sorry. You need the proper cable.

Component Cable Support?

I have a non-Apple component cable output that worked (and still does) for my old iPod video, but I know my new Classic only supports the Composite Cable.
The new 1.0.3 update mentions Video Out Bug fixes, but when I tested it with the new update, it still doesn't work. Does anyone know if this has been fixed, or if they are planning on fixing it ...
Or is this one of those things where they don't want to make it work with the component video-out cables because it means they can try to make us buy a new set of cables?

There are both component and composite cables available for the new iPods. Older, third party cables that plug into the dock connector, as far as I know, still aren't supported though I could have missed something. Cables that plug into the headset jack just aren't going to work and software won't change that as the hardware in the jack was changed.

Rendering while converting from DVD using MPEG Streamclip or Cinematize

Is there anyway to make rendered .mov file, while converting from DVD to .mov, using MPEG Streamclip or Cinematize for final cut pro?
Thanks.

Are you asking if there's a way to export from mpegstreamclip so you don't need to render when you edit with the file in fcp? If so, yes... (sorry couldn't resist).
What format is your sequence in fcp (make the timeline active and hit command(apple)-zero? Note the pixel dimensions, frame rate and compressor settings and set the quicktime options in mpegstreamclip export dialog to match them. You should be good to go.
Also, you might do some searching here. Pretty sure someone posted a link to a tutorial on how to do this,

Video output from iPod Touch (2nd gen) via AV Component Cable (no audio)

Hi, I'm trying to output a video from my iPod Touch (2nd gen) to my TV via a AV Component Cable.
Unfortunately the audio doesn't work, I'm sure they are all connected into the right places.
The video works, but I get no audio. (And no subtitles when closed caption is on)
Here is a link to an image of the TV connections from ImageShack:
http://img707.imageshack.us/img707/7280/img0204y.jpg
At the top left of the image, are what I assume to be the red and white audio ports, highlighted in red.
I plugged in the red and white audio connectors into those ports.
And towards the bottom are three ports, green, blue and red, also highlighted in red.
I plugged in the green, blue and red connectors into those ports.
I changed the input of the TV to Input 2, I see the video for the movie I'm watching on the TV but no audio. I tried multiple movies.
I've also tried changing the video output from PAL to NTSC and back again, turning Widescreen on and off and turning Closed Captions on and off. I also tried plugging in the red and white audio connectors into the row of ports just below the green/blue/red row, to see if that made any difference, and it didn't.
I tapped the bottom left button of the iPod Touch when plugged in to the TV and playing video and it came up with an option that was selected called ~"Audio Source: English (Stereo)"
Any idea's? Thanks.

Resolved... ThankYou

Your TV hasn't entered some odd picture in picture mode has it with two 'inputs' side by side?

Poor video quality with component cable streaming from iphone to tv

Purchased a component cable on the advise of someone at the online apple store. I wanted to stream Netflix, You Tube and HBO GO from my iphone 4 to tv. Both the video and audio or are terrible! There is a constant buzz despite the fact that all connectors are tight. The video is green, squashed and looks like a 20th generation copy of an old video tape. HBO GO will only show the opening screen (which looks great for some reason) but wont play at all. Netflix and YouTube have the above issues with quality. Is this the best the $45 dollar cable will produce? If so, I wish they would have told me that! Am I doing something wrong? If not, back to the store it goes!
I have limited bandwidth and was hoping to use my 3G (which is unlimited) to avoid overages if I chose to stream movies. Any help would be appreciated!

Which iphone do you have?
Netflix only provides this feature for iphone 4, ipod touch 4th gen and ipad.

Ipod Classic doesn't play video with Component cables

I just bought a new Ipod Classic and I have it connected to my Denon receiver using the Denon dock. I am able to play music and movies from the ipod. But when I try to play movies thru my small LG tv (Apple red, rellow white component cable) I only get audio and only if I have it in the white docking station. Do I need to buy the composite cables to get the video? I do get a message stating I need to plug into a video source.
Any thoughts?
Thanks

Have tried to completely restore the iPod to factory settings and then resync the video?
Restoring iPod to factory settings
Before you do that, try converting the video once more using iTunes' built in convert. To do this, highlight the movie and chooose Create iPod or iPhone version from the Advanced drop down menu. When the conversion process is finished, sync the new version over to your iPod and see if that helps.

Lose color with canopus 300 converter from computer to TV

I have a new Sharp 15 in TV to use with FCE so I can see my movie on an analogue TV and edit color appropriately. The TV works well as a stand alone or when connected to a deck. But when I connect the Canopus advc-300 converter to my computer and put my FCE movie through the converter to the TV, I lose yellows and greens in the signal bar and throughtout the movie. I know it is not the TV causing the problem. So I am guessing my settings are not right on the converter. The Canopus help site is down because of some sort of transfer to Grass Valley and has been down for several days. Does anyone use this converter and know what I am doing wrong? Any help would be much appreciated
Imac G5 Intel Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Yes, I have the manual and have been trying to make sense of it.
All dip switches were off, but I took your advice and turned on the 7.5 IRE.
Yes, it is in Digital mode and has been. When I hold it down for 3 seconds I get the bar code with no yellows or greens. Then the movie does not start, just the bar code. So I toggle that off and try again and the movie does not play on the TV screen.
I have the Easy Set up for out to DV converter. I am using a component cable and red and white cables for audio.
I always turn the converter off before I do anything.
3D processing and 3D noise reduction light up only if converting from analogue to digital, so that never lights when in DV mode.
It worked a day ago with the lousy color but then I thought it was my TV, but checked the TV out with cable input and with a deck and a DVD I had made and it is fine, the color is good.
So I deleted my recent FCE preferences from my Library, restarted and am in the fix I am in now.
I appreciate your advice, but no luck so far. Any more advice would be very much appreciated.

A/V Component cables no longer able to work with iPhone 1st Generation?

I purchased the Apple A/V Component cables to be able to hook my iPhone up to my stereo at work and TV at home. Before the 2.0.1 update, it worked ok. No hassles or problems what so ever. Now, after the 2.0.1 update, I can no longer use this device for what it seems it was made for. It seems that now it's a $50 iPhone charger and that's about it. Anyone know of any fix or maybe something I did to make this happen? I called Apple and they said "that's odd, it should be working" and then asked if I could bring it in.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It seems it's not just the A/V Component cables that aren't working with the new upgrade. Apparently some other people have had issues with docking stations and speaker extensions after the upgrade. Anyone?

I have an Retina display MacBook Pro with HMDI out port. I also have an HDMI to Component cable with Audio Plugs. How can I get HDMI out to work with this cable when plugged into the Component and Audio ports on my TV?

Will not work. To my knowledge, dual converting like that isn't supported. The Mac must detect the connected video output device and that sort of info cannot be done across an analog component uni-directional connection.
