DVI to HDMI - no signal coming though?

This one has me stumped.
I'm running:
- Mac mini Core 2 Duo model (10.5.1)
- Sony Rear Projection LCD TV DVI-only up to 1080i
- XtremeMac XTREMEHD HDMI switch box with an HDMI to DVI adapter to the TV
I know the switchbox is handingly the HDMI to DVI OK - I have a TiVo HD and Xbox 360 which both work fine but the Mac mini isn't cooperating. I mean, it's shows me no screen of any kind... this isn't a complaint of quality
If I hook up the mini to the TV directly via DVI to DVI, it works fine: I like to drive it in 1280x720 but I've had it run all the way to 1080i. It correctly shows that it's a Sony TV and it's happy. When I plug in the DVI-to-HDMI adapter, which runs to the HDMI switch box, I get nothing. If I connect to the mini via VNC, it tells me that it only detects a standard VGA monitor.
I've tried SwitchResX while connected via VNC: it run and it gives me the illusion that I'm changing settings but after a reboot, I get nothing but the "standard" VGA modes.
I've tried DisplayConfigX (and bought it to "export" the settings) - not only does this crash when connected via VNC but the exported settings are ignored on a reboot.
I tried to delete the com.apple.windowserver*.plist files, but I wasn't able to in single user mode - told me it was a system file... even so, I'm not sure how that would help in this scenario.
So, I'm at a loss... it doesn't like there's any way to "lock in" the Sony TV options when I connect it DVI-to-HDMI, or have I missed something?

I am having a similar issue with my Mac Mini (Intel Core Duo running Leopard). I recently bought a LCD HDTV which has a VGA connector and 2 HDMI connectors, but no DVI. I want to connect it with a DVI to HDMI adapter, but when I do, I get no picture at all and the TV says it is receiving a "1P SD" signal (should be 1080P HD). However, the VGA connector works fine, and allows me to run the full 1920x1080 (non-interlaced) resolution. I know the DVI output on the Mac Mini is fine, since that is how I connected it to my old LCD monitor. I tried connecting it to my brother's Mac Mini (PowerPC G4 running Tiger) with the same results.
At this point, I suspect it is some sort of handshaking issue between the HDTV and the Mac Mini, but I have no idea how to fix it. If I get the chance, I'll borrow my parents' MacBook Pro and try to connect that. That should allow me to see any error messages that it is displaying. I may try playing around with VNC tomorrow at work if I get a chance.

  • I am trying to hook my macbook pro to a sony bravia TV via DVI to HDMI cable and the TV will not recognize the signal. The same set up has worked with three other, though different televisions. Any thoughts?

    I am trying to hook my MacBook Pro to a Sony Bravia TV via DVI to HDMI cable and the TV will not recognize the signal. I have used the same setup with three other TV's, each a different brand with no problem. Any ideas?

    Is the TV set to take input from the HDMI connection?
    On your computer, if you open the Displays preferences and do not see an Arrangement tab (or there is an Arrangement tab that shows only a single monitor) then there is something physically wrong with your connection.  Try clicking Detect Displays just to see if the computer can now sense the presence of the connection.  Check your connections.
    If you do have an Arrangement tab, and it shows two screens, then click Gather Windows to bring the TV's Displays preferences on to your main screen if the TV is not yet showing an image.  Set the proper resolution (probably 720p, 1080i, or 1080p).  Set the refresh rate (probably 60Hz) if that preference is shown.  You should see a picture at this point.  I  recommend turning off mirrored displays if it is enabled.

  • Mac Mini DVI to HDMI (blank screen, "no signal")

    I have an older Mac Mini with just DVI.  I bought a Monster Cable DVI to HDMI adapter (http://www.monstercable.com/productdisplay.asp?pin=4596) trying to hook up to a Samsung 46" LCD TV.  All i see is a black screen with "No Signal".  What am I doing wrong?  This worked when I had a straight DVI to HDMI cable (from MonoPrice).

    Just to update this:
    Got my DVI to HDMI cable today!
    Plugged it in, booted her up and was presented with a perfect 1080p HDMI signal without having to alter any display settings.
    Fantastic!
    In my display menu I have 10 resolutions to play with with , 3 of which are full 1080p, one is specifically for PAL tv in the UK.
    Couldn't be happier!
    Hope this thread helps anybody who is having any connecting woes between their mac mini and their sharp TV

  • DVI/HDMI No Signal

    I'm running:
    Mac mini Core 2 Duo model (10.5.2)
    I recently bought a 42" Insignia LCD HDTV which has a VGA connector and 2 HDMI connectors, but no DVI. I want to connect it with a DVI to HDMI adapter, but when I do, I get no picture at all and the TV says it is receiving a "1P SD" signal (should be 1080P HD). However, the VGA connector works fine, and allows me to run the full 1920x1080 (non-interlaced) resolution. I know the DVI output on the Mac Mini is fine. I just need a little help with this, I really don't want to use VGA. I want to get the best quality if possible.

    Its fortunate this topic came up when it did. I'm having a similar problem...
    I'm using an Optiquest Q20wb LCD (sub-par, but a freebie) with a first generation, 1.25 GHz Mac Mini. It has previously been operating off of this display for someone else for a number of years now using a VGA cable and the Apple-included VGA-DVI adaptor. Tonight I hooked it up with a DVI cable for the first time while it was still running - I got a digital signal for a few minutes before the video signal sputtered out during a software update. It has since refused to work with a digital signal, yet the old VGA+adaptor method works. I have hooked up the same display and DVI cable to my MacBook Pro successfully, but nothing has resolved the digital video issue with the Mini.
    Hate to ride your coat tails Zion, but does anyone have a suggestion for my issue as well?

    Thank you in advance for help.

    There has been quite a lot of discussion here about driving twin displays with the mini, and more recently about the potential for USB video adapters to facilitate this, particularly in the light of several vendors claiming they have suitable MacOS devices and drivers 'almost ready'.
    The DisplayLink solution seems to be the one most suggested as viable, though it's a pity they have not yet been able to move their drivers from beta - I suspect that puts a few people off. It's therefore good to hear of a real-world experience that should help others decide whether or not to go this route!

  • My Mini-DVI to HDMI to TV connection stopped working - tried everything

    I have been using a generic mini-dvi to hdmi dongle plus a HDMI cable to connect my white intel imac to my television. It has worked great and flawlessly until very recently. Now the TV says "no signal". Screen still flashes blue when dongle is plugged in/out. Flashes blue when TV turned on/off. Nothing was changed in my setup. I have tested the mini-dvi port with the Apple Mini-DVI to S-video/video dongle (worked), tried a new minidvi-hdmi dongle (fail), tested the HDMI cable (good), and tested other ports on the TV, as well as resetting the TV to defaults. Still not working.
    At this point, I was assuming it was a software problem, even though starting from a restore disk or in safe mode did not solve this. Could this be a software issue? Is my video card only doing analog signals? My TV is less than 6 months old, so I doubt its that. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I usually can solve these things myself, but this time it's vexing me. Thanks.

  • Mini DVI to DVI to HDMI Vs Mini DVI to VGA

    When I connect my MacBook to my LG 32" HD Ready LCD TV via Mini DVI to DVI connector and DVI to HDMI cable, image is sharp but color seems very pale and washed out. However, when using Mini DVI to VGA connection, colors are brilliant, though images via DVI are sharper.
    I tried calibrating the display but couldn't achieve the brilliant colors of the VGA connection.
    Is this normal? Any solution for this?
    I'm also connecting my PS3 to my TV via HDMI and don't have this problem.

    Hey Guys,
    I am having a very similar problem.
    I have a 35" Westinghouse LCD TV (not the best I know but I'm a college student). I had been using a VGA adapter/cable in order to use my TV as a monitor, but I decided to upgrade (or so I thought) to a digital signal so I purchased a Mini-Dvi to HDMI adapter, etc.
    Here's the problem:
    My display settings on my MacBook for my LCD TV only allow me to choose either '1280 x 720' or '1920 x 1080'. My TV cannot support the higher resolution so when I chose the '1920 x 1080' setting, the picture comes up with good color quality, but the actual image looks over compressed and does not fill up the screen. When I choose the '1280 x 720' setting, the image resolution looks great, EXCEPT the colors are way off, faded, washed out, etc.
    This is problem is so frustrating because I can get the resolution to look good OR the color to look good, bot never both. I have read several forums that touch on a similar issue and have tried all types of monitor calibration but I can't get the color to look normal when the resolution is right.
    I just don't understand why the only resolution that fits that of my TV has terrible color??
    Help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Seeking successful DVI to HDMI Conversion at 1920x1080 on a Mac Mini

    I've seen lots of posts related to this topic, but nothing definitive, and I'm still trying to figure this out. Let me start by saying that:
    1) I understand the option of going from DVI to VGA. That works fine on my equipment (late model Mac Mini to Sony 46" LCD XBR3).
    2) I've validated the HDMI port on my TV at 1080i and I'm sure it does 1080p (i.e. 1920x1080 non-interlaced) as well, based on the specs
    3) I don't care about integrating audio into the HDMI signal at this point
    4) Sony support provides no help, saying it must be a computer problem
    5) Apple support provides no help, saying they don't support 3rd party monitors
    The lousy looking output (i.e. interpolated, shrunk, expanded, based on the combination of driver and tv "modes") I'm getting is described elsewhere on this forum. Some other things are:
    1) The Mac Mini recognizes the display as "Sony TV" but only offers resolution choices up to "1090 x 1080 (interlaced)". Although that suggests that either the driver isn't current or the tv and driver aren't talking to each other properly about the tv's capabilities, that still doesn't explain the visual results I'm getting.
    2) The DVI-to-HDMI converter cable says it is based on the HDMI 1.1 spec. The TV says it supports HDMI 1.3. I don't know if that's an issue.
    Any help would be appreciated. This isn't the end of the world, as I can still connect through VGA, but I'd like to get the DVI-to-HDMI working so I can reserve my TV's VGA port for computers that don't have the DVI option.
    Pete
    P.S. Anyone have any idea when Apple is coming out with a version of the Mac Mini (or some Mac-based settop box) that supports HDMI with integrated video/audio?

    Does the Sony manual make any reference to a computer connection? If so, which port does it recommend? On a lot of TVs the HDMI port can't be used successfully for a computer connection because there is always a scaler/processor active that cannot be bypassed.
    You might want to check at the AVSforum.com and search for your specific Sony model number to see if anybody there is reporting success connecting a computer to the HDMI port.

  • Mac mini, macbook + DVI to HDMI + projector = No soup for you!

    This is driving me nuts!!! I have tried 3 different macs, 4 completely different cables/adapters and they all do exactly the same thing.
    1. I connect the mac to the DVI to HDMI cable and/or adapter combo, then connect to the projector
    2. I get 2-30 seconds of wonderful projector screen usage (it works, picture looks crystal clear)
    3. Then POOF! No projector signal, though it appears mac recognizes the projector.
    I can repeat from 1 using a different adapter and/or cable and I get exactly the same results, but if I re-use the same cable I used previously, I get no signal at all.
    What the $%@! is going on here??? Is Apple black-listing my cables or something??? I'm using everything from cheap-o cables to $$$ cables with exactly the same result.I run this projector with absolutely no problem from a dell desktop via DVI to HDMI.
    For what it's worth, I'm connecting to a LG HS201 projector.
    using Core-2-duo macs either with pure DVI or mini-DVI

    DVI to HMDI is not supported on the Core 2 Duo Mac Mini.
    You need to connect via DVI or VGA to your projector.
    I have had Core2Duo Mac minis working with Sony LCD TVs and a Toshiba Plasma via DVI to HDMI cables with no problems. Obviously audio has to be run separately. There have been many reports from others that this works. It should do since both DVI and HDMI support HDCP and both are digital video connections, this after all is why a simple DVI to HDMI cable works.
    What can be an issue is if your trying to do things like 3D or YCbCr colour encoding. However standard video works fine. Another common issue is if your are switching inputs to the TV perhaps via an AV Receiver or if the TV is allowed to sleep or be turned off, in these cases the Mac can see the handshake signal disappear. It is for this sort of situation Gefen makes the DVI Detective+ and the HDMI Detective+.
    Since in your case the common factor is your projector and not the computer or cables it might be it at fault. Early HDMI products did have HDCP handshaking problems.
    People have been using Mac minis as media center computer with HDMI for ages since the Mac mini is small and quiet, this probably goes back as far as G4 models let alone Core2Duo models.

  • No video output from MacBook Air micro DVI to Polaroid HDTV via DVI to HDMI

    Grrr! What's going on? The Apple online store finally sent me a micro DVI to DVI adapter and a DVI to HDMI adapter cable as well as headphone output to RCA adapter cables (for separate audio, since DVI will not transmit audio) and I hooked it up and - NOTHING! When I initialize the appropriate input setting on the Polaroid 27"HDTV the MacBook Air seems to get some sort of query signal as its screen flickers for a moment and turns to a grey screen for a couple seconds but then, that's it! Nothing! The Polaroid's screensaver remains and no signal, audio or video, is transmitted. Now, the micro DVI to DVI adapter is Apple proprietary so I don't think it is a DRM related issue where the chip might block the video signal coming out of the MacBook Air. The longer, DVI to HDMI adapter cable is by Belkin. Am I overlooking something? Could the new 27" Polaroid HDTV not be compatible with DRM protocol? I don't think so since all digital TVs equipped with an HDMI input are supposed to have DRM compatibility built in. What gives?

    Well, BSteely, where to begin? After my extensive discussions with more than one support engineer at Apple in Toronto as well as in Austin an interesting picture is emerging. Seems that I'd omitted a few things: First, I was not trying to display HD content but rather standard definition content. Second, I made the mistake hoping for an elegant and easy solution in hookup via HDMI (new flatscreens don't even have a DVI port anymore) - bad mistake! As one of the technicians put it, HDMI is an "unsettled" platform when it comes to HDCP, currently in version 1.4 , meaning, I should have tried VGA instead, a "settled" platform after all. Now, whether this will work remains to be seen because I don't have a micro DVI to VGA adapter yet but suffice to say that in essence I've been getting the message from Apple that, yes, the MacBook Air will - in the near future - support HDCP, but for now it does not contain the necessary software simply because HDMI is in its forth incarnation; plus, as they put it, Apple can't be responsible for testing compatibility with every single HD television set on the market - while it is true that there are thousands in existence, at the same time there are only four versions of HDMI with different HDCP specs! So, while I may be partially answering my own query here, it seems that Apple at this point is not particularly eager to make this software available because they rather would like to sell their new displays with the micro DVI ports instead of us endusers being able to hook the computer video signal up to just ANY monitor or TV. In the end, it is my hope that they will reconsider and not forget who their customers are, maybe after the Christmas season....

  • MBP won't connect to external Toshiba LCD, MiniDisplay to DVI to HDMI

    Brand new Mac Book Pro, 10.6.4, won't connect to external Toshiba 40" LCD display. I'm using a MiniDisplay to DVI-D adapter coming out of the computer. Then a 10' DVI-D (single link) to HDMI cable running to the display. When I connect the external display the MBP "searches" for a few seconds, but doesn't connect, and the Toshiba display reads: No video signal. This is with the MBP open and display on. BUT, sometimes when the MBP lid is closed, and I connect the display IT WORKS for a about 20 seconds, then the computer "goes to sleep" by itself, and the display shuts off. Strange problem... Also I've tested the computer with a 24" external Planar display (MiniDisplay to DVI-D), and it worked fine. Also the TV and DVI to HDMI setup works fine with my older MBP that has a DVI output. Any ideas...?

    The adapter works perfect with other computers (mac pro and dual 24" displays). The problem only seems to happen with this new MBP, Toshiba TV, and the adapter configuration I described. I'm trying to find a friend with a similar new MBP, and try it with theirs. With so many components, it's hard to isolate the problem (especially when all the pieces seem to work properly on their own).

  • MSI NX8600GT able to do DVI TO HDMI for PC to TV?

    I wanted a Video card could hook up and would look nice on my TV, this card can connect by S-video and I've tested it and it works pretty darn good.

    Kreg,
    This is the pinout of the different DVI Connectors:
    The DVI connector usually contains pins to pass the DVI-native digital video signals. In the case of dual-link systems, additional pins are provided for the second set of data signals.
    As well as digital signals, the DVI connector includes pins providing the same analog signals found on a VGA connector, allowing a VGA monitor to be connected with a simple plug adapter. This feature was included in order to make DVI universal, as it allows either type of monitor (analog or digital) to be operated from the same connector.
    The DVI connector on a device is therefore given one of three names, depending on which signals it implements:
    DVI-D (digital only)
    DVI-A (analog only)
    DVI-I (integrated, digital & analog)
    The connector also includes provision for a second data link for high resolution displays, though many devices do not implement this. In those that do, the connector is sometimes referred to as DVI-DL (dual link).
    The long flat pin on a DVI-I connector is wider than the same pin on a DVI-D connector, so it is not possible to connect a male DVI-I to a female DVI-D by removing the 4 analog pins. It is possible, however, to connect a male DVI-D cable to a female DVI-I connector. Many flat screen LCD monitors have only the DVI-D connection so that a DVI-D male to DVI-D male cable will suffice when connecting the monitor to a computer's DVI-I female connector.
    DVI is the only widespread video standard that includes analog and digital transmission options in the same connector.[citation needed] Competing standards are exclusively digital: these include a system using low-voltage differential signaling (LVDS), known by its proprietary names FPD (for Flat-Panel Display) Link and FLATLINK; and its successors, the LVDS Display Interface (LDI) and OpenLDI.
    Some new DVD players, TV sets (including HDTV sets) and video projectors have DVI/HDCP connectors; these are physically the same as DVI connectors but transmit an encrypted signal using the HDCP protocol for copy protection. Computers with DVI video connectors can use many DVI-equipped HDTV sets as a display; however, due to Digital Rights Management, it is not clear whether such systems will eventually be able to play protected content, as the link is not encrypted.

  • Cannot Connect Imac 24" via mini dvi to HDMi adapter cable to Sony Bravia 3

    Hello Everyone,
    I'm having the worst time in trying to connect the following:
    1. Imac 24" 3.06 dual with dvi connection
    2. Mini dvi to HDMI adapter (this mac with this connection was produced only for a short while!).
    3. 10' (foor) HDMI wire
    3. Sony Bravia 32" model KDL32L-5000 with 3 HDML connections
    i.When I wire everything up, I keep getting"no signal" on my Sony Bravia TV.
    ii. It doesn't matter whether I connect the HDMI wire to HDMI 1,2, or 3 on my Sony
    iii. On my Imac Hard Drive>>Applications>>System Preferences>>Displays
    all I get is a list of different resolutions. There is no mention or mirrors etc.
    Nothing happens when I press "Gather Windows" or Detect Displays"
    Can someone out there please help!!!!!
    Can you also give any solution in very simple and small detailed steps!

    Majortrout, there is a major disconnect going on here.
    1. You are showing an Ebay link with a mini-DVI to HDMI adapter.
    2. You report that you have an Early '09 24" iMac.
    3. That iMac does not have a mini-DVI port. That iMac has a mini-DispayPort.
    4. You need a mini-DisplayPort to HDMI adapter.
    It is physically impossible to attach the adapter to which you link at Ebay to your iMac. So you need to take a step back and figure out what you really have; which iMac, which adapter, etc.

  • My macbook pro no longer connects to my TV with the mini dvi to hdmi adapter. It was working fine now I cant get it to output to the Tv. Any ideas?

    My Macbook pro no longer outputs to my vizio led tv. It was working fine now I cant get any picture. It just says no signal. It is not the hdmi or the adapter because it works fine with my other tv. Any ideas on how to resolve this would be greatly appreciated. Please be as specific as possible. Thanks. BTW--I am using the mini dvi to hdmi adapter in case that was unclear.

    Since you say that the same connectors work on your other TV is suggests that the fault is not in the connectors but your Vizio TV.  I would check the settings on the Vizio TV.  Verify that is is set to receive HDMI input.  Perhaps you or some one else has inadvertently changed them.  Pressing the wrong buttons on a remote control device can do that.  (I am assuming no changes were made in SYSTEM PREFERENCES>DISPLAYS)

    Yeah, I'm having the same exact problem - It seems that the thunderbolt minidisplay port is only able to output the analog VGA signal, not the digital signal to support DVI and HDMI. This is a bug that came up after installing 10.7.1. I bought my macbook air with 10.7 on it, upgraded it to 10.7.1 as soon as I got it, so I have never been able to use hdmi or dvi with my macbook air. This is an extremely frustrating problem for me, I used HDMI on a daily basis with my PC. I have spent many hours at the genius bar running diagnostic tests so Apple can get as much information as possible to create a fix for this problem. I have been emailing tech support for 3 or so weeks now, they keep saying that they are working on a fix and it should be out soon, but 10.7.2 has come and gone and I still have no HDMI functionality with my MacBook Air!
