Hdmi to vga connection using apple tv-2

how can we connect apple tv-2 to a vga projector? what should we use?
can we use an hdmi to vga adapter sold separately?

A compliant converter wouldn't confirm it was connected to an HDCP compliant device and the Apple TV wouldn't send the movie (or send the "HDCP is not supported" message).
A converter that is not compliant would confirm (circumvent protection) it was connected to an HDCP compliant device and the Apple TV would be fooled into sending the movie.

  • I will be using a HDMI cable to connect an Apple TV box and a Comcast cable TV box to my TV. My TV has only one HDMI port.

    I will be using a HDMI cable to connect an Apple TV box and a Comcast cable TV box to my TV. My TV has only one HDMI port.
    To do this I will need a 2x1 HDMI splitter or a 2x1 HDMI auto switch (preferred).
    ?Is there any Apple TV HDMI port voltage?
    When using a HDMI auto switch to connect two devices to a HDMI TV, the
    Auto switch cable box only works for components that do not output continuous voltage over HDMI port when turned off.
    Do you know of any other solutions? Componets? Actual expierances?

    Cable : HDMI switches expand the number of available HDMI ports on a high definition television allowing connection of cable boxes, Blu-ray players, and game consoles. A side benefit is that cable clutter is also eliminated by running a single HDMI cable to your HDTV from a switch and relocating the HDMI ports to a concealed location. The problem with most HDMI switches is that you have to either get up to push a button, or hunt for the remote control, to switch sources. The true mark of any great switching component is an ability to perform its function and remain transparent in its operation. This automatic HDMI switch is a plug-and-play away from offering everything you are looking for in an HDMI switch. Select a single output from up to three devices for signal delivery to your HDTV. Smart operation provides complete control for connect-and-forget operation. Powering on a device gives it output priority over the other devices. By powering down the device in use, output priority is returned to the last powered on device. Note: Auto switch function only works for components that do not output continuous voltage over HDMI port when turned off.

    Hi Erico,
    I tried what you said again but without success. I even updated the driver so that that audio driver is the same as the graphics driver i.e.. NVIDIA but this has not helped either:
    Do you have any other ideas?
    Many many thanks,

  • Detect HDMI or VGA connection

    Dear forum members,
    Out of some reasons, I want that one of my LabVIEW programs runs only if the laptop is connected to my audio and video system via HDMI. The program shall give a warning or similar if the laptop is connected to the audio and video system via VGA.
    So, is there any way how I can detect if the laptop is connected via HDMI or VGA?
    I would be happy about some feedback!

    Thanks a lot for the feedback!
    The idea is great. Unfortunately, I have different laptops which behave differently.
    One changes the display size the other not id I connect them to the HDMI wire.
    So, I cannot really use the All Monitors Application for detecting if there is a HDMI or VGA connection.
    Meanwhile, I also think that I will build in my program some dialog in - this is easy and will work for sure.
    Anyway, Thanks a lot - I learned something ;-)

  • Both xp and windows 7 have video problems with my VGA connection using TV

    both xp and windows 7 have video problems with my VGA connection using TV as my monitor when it gets to starting up windows no matter what version it will not I have let my mac on all night and still says starting windows or the windows 7 logo and nothing else will happen also when I use a 3rd patty software like peraills or other it works like a charm how to fix it?

    To map the drive on your computer click on Start - RUN - type "\\192.168.1.1" and click ok... When prompted for Username and Password type "admin" and click ok... Now you will be able to see the folder which you have shared on  your router, right click on it and select "Map network drive" and click on finish.
    Now it will map the drive on your computer and you should be able to transfer the file from your computer to the USB drive.

  • S2110 HDMI to VGA connection

    Hi all - I bought a micro- HDMI to VGA converter to connect the S2110 tablet to a projector.    I've connected it to a computer moniter and a TV, to test it,  but there seems to be no signal.  Is there an app or a configuration that needs to be done to enable the HDMI out of the tablet?  
    Thanks in advance.

  • How do get video to hdmi TV port without using apple tv?

    My new non retina macbook pro 13 inch is supposed to arrive soon.  My old 42 inch Vizeo only has one hdmi port that works so I was planning to use it a s moniter  for  my DAW.  The apple tv is for the living room, not the room where my DAW is.  But as far as I can tell there is no mini display or anything on this computer other than thunderbold , usb and  firewire, the firewire to be used for my MOTU audio interface. Any ideas on how to get this old  VIzeo  to be external moniter basically

    Take a look at this;
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4241
    There's some additional links in there to the products themselves. Will allow you to connect it to the HDMI port on the TV and not have to use the Apple TV.

  • HDMI or VGA connection?

    I have a 50 inch Panasonic Veisa Plasma screen which i would like to connect to my Mac mini which I am using to store all my backed-up dvds. through front row I would like to use the mac mini as a video server to watch my movies
    when I connect with DVI/HDMI cable I get the overscan issue.
    When i use the "PC" input on the plasma at 1280 x 768 I lose about 20 pixels top and bottom. the movie therefore has larger black ribbons on top and bottom than when I watch it directly from the dvd on my dvd player.
    Any ideas?
    Nicholas

    You might want to check over at the AVS Forum in the Mac area for information. For example, this:
    http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=931340&highlight=panasonic
    But I don't really know if that applies to your display or not. You could also check there in the plasma panel forum and seach on the term "powerstrip" and "panasonic" to see if you can get any specific timing information for your TV from those who have connected one to a PC. Good luck.

  • "Connect using Apple ID" not working

    I have two Macs both running latest version of Lion on my home wireless network (created using a Netgear WGR614v9.
    Both Macs have a user account associated with my Apple ID, and I've enabled file sharing for the user associated with my Apple ID on Mac "A"
    Mac "B" will connect fine to Mac "A" if I log on using my OSX account and passord, but if I try to log on using the Apple ID associated with that same account, I get the error below:
    Could this be an issue with my router or is there some config on the Mac side that might be wrong?
    Thanks

    I am having the same problem!
    Did you get it solved?
    Thank you.

  • Thunderbolt vga connection fuzzy macbook pro

    recently purchased a thunderbolt connection because hdmi to vga connection doesn't work on macbook pro. had to punt and go to thurnderbolt connection for vga and the result is....blurry picture on mirrored display. running latest version of maverick.

    What you've asked is true.  You can buy similar displays from Dell or other manufacturers that will work with your laptop.  Many of the Dell's use the same internal LG panels, so quality is similar.

  • My samsung says video out from i pad is not supported. i am connecting with apple dock using hdmi. I do get the audio

    my samsung says video out from i pad is not supported. i am connecting with apple dock using hdmi. I do get the audio  any suggestions?

    Jeffrey-
    If the HDMI input to the Samsung is not compatible, does it have a VGA or composite input?  I have both the HDMI and VGA adapters for the iPad, which work with the small Vizio HDTV I tried.  I understand a composite video adapter is also available.

  • I would like to connect my Apple TV to my receiver using an HDMI cable and pass thru dolby digital. I do not have optical inputs on my receiver.

    I want to connect my Apple TV to my receiver using an HDMI cable. This should allow me to pass thru high definition video and simultaneously decode Dolby Digital material with an HDMI connection from my receiver to my TV without the use of an optical cable (my receiver does not have an optical input). I am unable to decode 5.1 material and don't understand why this is not working. In the audio setting I have Dolby Digital output turned on.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Are you sure the content you are playing has Dolby Digital.

    I am trying to connect my Apple TV to an older Panasonic projection TV using an HDMI to a DVI cable to the Digital IN. I cannot get any sound. Can you help?

    DVI interface does't allow audio. Is there optical IN from your Panasonic TV? By then you can connect your ATV to Panasonic using optical together. It will work.
