HDMI to RCA converter for Audio only

I purchased an Apple TV for the airplay for audio only and adding an HDMI to RCA converter (universal unit from Amazon).  Is there any specifications I need to look for on the converter for this to work?  I am aware of issues when using the video portion of a converter, but I don't see anything for the audio.

maybe easier to find a optical -> RCA converter as the optical is audio only
though heard some people repport that if hdmi is not connected optical is muted but don't know for sure
if I may ask then why on eath get an appletv for audio only
an airport express would do the same thing and a minijack already and is cheaper

  • Lightning to HDMI followed by Startech HDMI to RCA Converter --- HDCP

    Hello together,
    I need to go from lightning output to rca input in order to be able to stream purchased itunes movies over this monitor.
    My approach so far was to hook up 1) Lightining to HDMI adabter 2) HDMI cable 3) STARTECH HDMI to RCA converter 4) RCA cable
    My question now is, if it would play HDCP protected movies this way?
    Thanks in advance for your answer.
    Cheers

  • MDP for audio only (on iMac mid2010)

    Hi
    I wanna buy a iMac 27": 2,8GHz (so it's mid 2010).
    The information i already gathered:
    Audio through HDMI is possible (at least with the proper Adapter).
    The issues with 10.6.4 are solved by 10.6.5.
    TOSLink has a limited bandwidth and doesn't work for HD-Audio-Codecs (and i don't want to make compromises).
    Here's the thing:
    I don't want to connect an external monitor, but i want to send audio through HDMI. If i connect the iMac through HDMI to my AV-Receiver (Denon AVR 1911) will the audio work, even though i don't use the output of my AV-Receiver to connect a TV/Monitor? Or wouldn't the AV-Receiver be recognized by the iMac?
    And if it does work:
    Do i lose performance because the iMac would export audio and video? Or is it possible to disable video export and use the MDP for audio only?
    I hope i explained my problems understandable. (Also hope my english is understandable, too. )
    Hope someone can help,
    Thanks in advance!
    PS: Yes, i know it's not possible to play Blu-Rays on Mac, but I would appreciate
    to be able to stream 5.1 PCM to my AV-Receiver.

    Thanks RRFS, just a couple of questions for you : Do you (or would you) keep things like sample libraries for Kontakt, Logic (apple loops) and sound design library stuff (80 GBs +) on your internal SSD drive?  Also, is your internal SSD your principal (or only internal) drive ?  I have an iMac that already has a serial ATA as its principal drive, but the store I spoke with said they could add a second internal drive (SSD) to my system if I want to take out my optical drive.  Not sure if it would be worth the cash--probably $250 + for parts and labour for 128 GBs that won't make a huge difference to workflow speed, according to BDAqua.
    Cheers & thanks.

  • Http dynamic streaming for audio only ( radio channeles content)

    fms HDS audio only streaming (no video input) only audio in fms

    Hi,
    Thanks for using the HTTP Dynamic Streaming.
    As you mentioned, you are hitting the missing crossdomain.xml error itself (the error code 2048 confirms this). Attached is a sample all-allowing (and hence risky for non-testing purposes) crossdomain.xml that you can use.
    Thank you !

  • Chapter Markers for Audio Only encode to CD

    I have an audio only sequence in Final Cut with chapter markers. I did Export>Using Compressor & when I look at the sequence in Compressor I can see the purple chapter markers in the Preview window. I've tried many different settings: MPEG-4 (disabled video in the inspector), AAC, AIFF. Every time I open these files in Quicktime, I lose the chapter markers.
    I do have a .mov file that I exported from FCP to Quicktime & that shows the chapter markers, but once I try to export from Quicktime, the same thing happens... I keep losing the chapter markers.
    What settings should I be using to keep the chapter markers with my audio sequence & encode this audio for CD?

    Yes, thank you... I didn't realize markers don't work for audio.
    I found a workaround on the FCP forum. Here it is for anyone watching:

  • Intro/Outros for audio only

    I am trying to use podcast producer on lion server.  I need to create a workflow that will add an intro and outro clip to audio files.  I am able to add intros and outros to videos just fine, but when I try audio only, it just gives me the file without an intro/outro.  Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I should be looking at in terms of log files?  Or does anyone have a sample workflow that would do what I'm trying to do?  Thanks!

    That will require more knowledge and software than "Videora" provides. Go here to learn how:

  • Using ATV2/3 with non-HDMI Receiver and theater projector and also need iTunes downloaded movies to work.   I'm thinking to use the Toslink digital out for surround sound and an HDMI to RGB converter for video but not sure the iTunes DRM will prevent?

    I have a theater with a Runco projector but non HDMI. alas, my receiver is non HDMI. Changing electronics and projector is a non-starter.
    I would like to be able to buy HD movies on iTunes and watch them by streaming via Apple TV3. My plan is to capture surround sound from the TosLink digital out, which my preamp/receiver can handle. For the video, I need to convert the HDMI to RGB component to feed my receiver.
    This is where iTunes DRM and HDCP issues might arise. I am under the impression that I need an non-HDMI compliant converter so that ATV3 can even talk to my receiver. It is my understanding that this is possible and takes care of the HDCP issue. But what about the DRM issue? All I want to do is buy and watch HD movies, no bad intentions. I find it incredible that iit might not be possible.
    Anyways, is there a 100% certain approach even if it costs up to $300-400. Again, changing hardware is a non-starter so please avoid the obvious "buy an HDMI amp and projector".
    Thanks

  • Re-enable video for audio only clips in sequence

    Hi all,
    I've been an editor for quite sometime now, but I'm new to Premiere Pro CS5.
    I have a dozen or so clips in my sequence that I used only the audio from a video/audio source file.
    I now want to re-enable the video for these clips.
    If I double click on them in the sequence it only opens up the audio element in the source window and I cannot re-enable the video to pull it down onto the sequence.
    How can I bring the video back without having to go back to the original clip in the bin and re-marking the in and out points and overlaying it?
    Many thanks in advance

    Make sure the track that contains the clip you want is targetted; that means clicking the Audio buttons in the track headers. Park the CTI at the beginning of the clip you want, and hit the "M" key; this will match frame the original clip and load it into the Source Monitor. From there, you can add/refine your in and out points, and then drag or insert the video into the sequence. Finally, you can relink the video and the audio; be sure to unlink the audio tracks first, then select the audio and video and relink. That will keep the video and audio as a single element.

  • How to setup Express next to fixed network (for audio only use)

    For reasons I shall not explain here I want to keep my existing fixed netwerk (which is connected to my DSL cable modem) and install my new Airport Express on the same computer. I will only use the Airport in this configuration to connect iTunes to my stereo. Can anyone help me setup the netwerk configurations?
    The existing DSL cable modem has DHCP capabilities, which I use for dynamic IP configuration on the fixed netwerk. My cable modem is 192.168.1.10 and my computer normally 192.168.1.11 (subnetmask 255.255.255.0). I sometimes hook up a laptop which becomes 192.168.1.12.
    How should I configure the Airport Express itself (using the Airport configuration assitant or Airport Admin Utility) and how should I configure the wireless network?
    BTW, the Express does work fine when connected directly to the DSL cable modem (with the fixed network disabled). However, the cable modem is far from my stereo.

    I struggled with this for what seemed like days.  Reading posts, seeing if anyone had an answer.  Then I logged onto my router and found that the firmware was out of date.  I updated the firmware, went through all the recnfituration and used the same security key that I had before and after reboot/reboot of the router it connected to the AirPort Express, now over 12 hours later it has stayed connected, streams music flawlessly.  You might wantt to check this out and seei f it will work for you.

  • No sound through rca converter

    I am using an older television so i bought an HDMI to RCA converter. I plugged in my apple tv and I have picture but no sound!

    Is it an occasional problem or is it that you have never had the hdmi audio output working with windows 7 Ultimate?  If it has never worked, is hdmi even listed under playback devices when you right-click the speaker icon in the notification area and click playback devices? 

  • Capturing audio only in fcp5

    I am rather new to Final Cut Pro 5 and have been trying to teach myself as I go along. I am, however, having trouble capturing audio seperate from video. I am shooting a 16mm film and need to capture audio and video to seperate files in order to synch them for edit. While I am able to capture straight video (i.e. without audio) I am unable to capture straight audio (i.e. without video in the same file). The only way that I have been able to capture audio is if some form of video is captured along with it. How can I capture an audio only file. I am using FCP 5 on a PowerBook G4 - capturing through a "Dazzle Hollywood DV Bridge" with a Canon ZR 45 for video and a Sony TCD D8 portable DAT for audio. Any information is greatly appreciated and I patiently await your response(s).
    Thank you,

    My welcome also but, as a beginner, you really need to run the tutorials and learn how to use the resources you paid for when you got your applications.
    Look in the online help system for audio only. Look in the manual index for audio only. Examine the chapter on capturing.
    How are you doing Video Only if you don't understand the Clip Settings function or where it is located?
    You can force DV to build separate audio and video files while capturing but it's not recommended (dunno why not). If you force separate files, you can simply delete the ones you don't want.

  • Getting the following message on Final Cut Express "audio only capture selected video preview disabled" how can I get the video capture back?

    I'm getting the following message on screen when attempting to capture video  "audio only capture selected, video preview disabled."  How can I get the view preview back?

    FCE doesn't allow for audio only capture, it's in a twist somewhere.
    Try trashing the FCE preferences.

  • Trying to Paste Attributes - AUDIO ONLY. I copy the clip I want - then click Paste Attributes - previously a box appeared with options - now nothing appears.  Only happening with AUDIO attributes.  Anyone else experiencing this?

    I am trying to Paste Attributes of AUDIO ONLY - from one clip to another audio clip.  These are the settings for the VOICE OVER on my 15 minute project.  This has worked before.  However now I copy the clip I want o use the attributes from - then I selct PASTE ATTRIBUTES. In the past a new dialogue box would appear and offer me the opportunity to select the attributes or effects I wanted to COPY and PASTE.  Hoever now - there is NOTHING. 
    I also want to REMOVE the ATTRIBUTES from 287 clips - but apparently I can only do this one at a time?  That seems like the most ridiculous thing in the world.  Certainly this can't be true?  Is there no way to remove ALL Attrributes from all of the clips at the same time?

    I cannot reproduce this. It is working as expected here: select a clip, copy, select another clip (or clips), paste attributes, and I get the usual window - this works for audio only clips as well as other clips.
    I suggest you try deleting FCP X preferences with Preference Manager and try again.

    Select the clips you want, and delete the effects in the Inspector by selecting and hitting the delete key.

  • RTMP Audio Only Streams and the BufferTrait

    I'm encountering and issue when trying to access the bufferTrait of an RTMP stream that is audio only.
    I can "getTrait" and it retrieves it, but when I try to adjust the bufferTime, it doesn't register any adjustments.
    We have a custom buffering to our video streams, and for video streams it is correctly adjusting the bufferTime, but for audio only running through the same custom plugin, no adjustments to the BufferTime are being made, and I can't find a way to increase the buffer.
    Is there is specific limitation on BufferTrait when dealing with Audio Only?
    Thanks,
    -Will

    Did you try creating  a BufferTrait  variable and then assigning to the variable.bufferTime the new value?
    Do you mind publishing your code to see if there is any problem with it, please.
