IPhone to DVD Player

I purchased a movie from iTunes and want to watch it on my TV but it won't play through my dvd player. The player has a usb port and I connect the phone to it with the usb cord. The dvd player automatically goes to usb mode but the iPhone doesn't transfer anything to it. Do I need a different cord (phono to usb maybe) or is it another problem?

The Apple Composite AV Cable or Apple Component AV Cable will work through your DVD player input jacks or even your TV input jacks.
Try to make sure that there is power nearby. I used to be able to watch videos running from the battery on the iPhone. However with the latest software upgrade, one of the battery saving "features" is that after a minute or so with the USB plug not connected, the video signal cuts out. The continues to run, but without the video.
I hope Apple fixes this because I just realized that it makes it really difficult to use in a vehicle with composite jacks into the entertainment system. Apple, if you want this as a battery saving feature, make it an option in settings. I need to turn it off so the kids in the back can watch videos for a couple hours in the back and then I can recharge when we get to the stop or hotel with the laptop or wall charger.

Skip the DVD player use an HDMI connection to your system.
Use this http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD098ZM/A/apple-digital-av-adapter?fnode=3a&fs =s%3Dalpha
or for just Audio use the 3.5 MM jack.

Iphone video's on DVD player?

Can I connect my iphone video's/movies to play on a portable DVD player? We're travelling on an airplane and wondered if we could do this for the kids.

If the player has a composite or component video input and an audio input, then yes, it should be possible. You'd need the appropriate AV cable for the input:

Portable DVD Player with iPhone 5 Dock

I have a RCA portable DVD player that has a docking station for the iPhone 4 and other models with the 30 pin connector. I have upgraded to the iPhone 5 with the 8 pin connector. I thought that the 30 pin to 8 pin converter cable would work or the HDMI connector cable but neither did. Does anyone know if there is a portable DVD player that has the docking station for the iPhone 5?

Hi Have a look for D V D Player with Bluetooth or a 3.5 plug to fit your headphones, socket on iphone. Cheers Brian

Portable DVD player with Iphone support?

Im looking for a portable DVD player that I could also plug in my Iphone and watch the movies in the DVD screen. Anyone know of any brands out there that can do that?

Well there is a Video "Out" cable you can buy for the iPhone (component or composite). With that cable you can do video out to a screen with matching (component or composit hookups depending what you bought) to it's Video/Audio "In"
Here is a link to the component cable

IPhone and changes to DVD Player

Since I've hooked up my iPhone, I have noticed that when I use DVD Player, the movie is VERY jerky when the controller is on the screen. When it disappears, the jerkyness goes away.
Any similar observations.. or just a coincidence?

Your D-Link router should have come with documentation on how to configure it, including the admin username and password.
But generally you use your browser (Safari) and use the URL 192.168.1.1 (or it might be 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.2.1). You can get your routers address via System Preferences -> Networking -> Advanced -> TCP/IP.
You should check to see if the default admin username and password are on one of the labels on the D-Link in very tiny print.
Else Google you router's make and model along with "default admin username and password" and you should find instructions for how to access your router.

We have an "old school" DVD player (Sony dvp-nc80v) that plays music throughout our home. Is there a connector that we can purchase to hook-up our iPhone or MacBook Air to also play music until we buy some new equipment?

We have an "old school" DVD player (Sony dvp-nc80v) that plays music throughout our home via connection to multiple embedded speakers. Is there a connector/piece of hardware that we can purchase to hook-up our iPhone or MacBook Air to also play music until we buy some new equipment?

A crude but effective way would ,assuming the Sony has an AUX in ,
is a stereo bluetooth receiver
plugs into aux and recives music over B/T from
the iPhone etc ,as used by many in vehicle
For instance as an example

The DVD I burned won't play on my DVD player

I filmed my son playing a concert on my iPhone. It is about an hour long. I was able to make it into a quick time movie. I figured out how to bun it on to a DVD throught Finder, but the DVD won't play on my DVD player or the Mac DVD player. What am I doing wrong?

Did you use iDVD to create the video DVD for playing?
Open iDVD, select a theme and drag the exported QT movie file into the open iDVD window being careful to avoid any drop zones.
Follow this workflow to help assure the best quality video DVD:
Once you have the project as you want it save it as a disk image via the File ➙ Save as Disk Image menu option. This will separate the encoding process from the burn process.
To check the encoding mount the disk image, launch DVD Player and play it. If it plays OK with DVD Player the encoding is good.
Then burn to disk with Disk Utility or Toast at the slowest speed available (2x-4x) to assure the best burn quality. Always use top quality media: Verbatim, Maxell or Taiyo Yuden DVD-R are the most recommended in these forums.
If iDVD was not preinstalled on your Mac you'll have to obtain it by purchasing a copy of the iLife 09 disk from a 3rd party retailer like Amazon.com: ilife 09: Software or eBay.com. Why, because iDVD (and iWeb) was discontinued by Apple over a year ago.
Why iLife 09 instead of 11?
If you have to purchase an iLife disc in order to obtain the iDVD application remember that the iLife 11 disc only provides themes from iDVD 5-7. The Software Update no longer installs the earlier themes when starting from the iLIfe 11 disk nor do any of the iDVD 7 updaters available from the Apple Downloads website contain them.
Currently the only sure fire way to get all themes is to start with the iLife 09 disc:
This shows the iDVD contents in the iLife 09 disc via Pacifist:
You then can upgrade from iDVD 7.0.3 to iDVD 7.1.2 via the updaters at the Apple Downloads webpage.

Problems burning a workout video for it to work on my dvd player? help

I've just purchased ripped in 30 days by Jillian Michaels and I thought that I could burn it to a dvd and then watch it my tv but its not working. Any suggestions?

Tina, Unfortunately, videos purchased from the iTunes Store may not be burned to a DVD that will work in a normal DVD player. They may only be burned to a data disc for backup purposes. See below item (v) quoted from the Terms and Conditions.
In your case, you might want to consider purchasing a physical DVD.

IDVD selectively won't recognize .mp4 format - how to burn for dvd player?

Hi -
I'm trying to burn a .mp4 movie for my gf's family so they can watch it on their TV instead of my tiny comp. After trying DiskUtility and iTunes (both to no avail, DU wouldn't even allow me to select a .mp4 format to burn on the DVD; iTunes burnt the movie, but it doesn't play on the DVD player ...). I thought I'd try iDVD, but it won't recognize the movie I'd like to burn - says the format is unrecognized. Tried with another movie, same format (.mp4) and it worked just fine.
I'm really at a loss - I didn't expect it would be so difficult to burn a DVD! Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Rax

Alright, my results correspond with Russ' hypothesis: both videos I tried are in the same format & at the same FPS, the only difference b/w them is the audio. The one that worked is Stereo (L R), the one that does not is the 5.1.
Unfortunately, I do not have Quick Time Pro, I just have QTP 10.1 that came w/ Lion (& an older version that I added b/c it allows playback speed control). Here, the export options are:
480p
720p
iPod touch & iPhone 3GS
iPad, iPhone 4 & Apple TV
Audio only
None of these were an obvious choice to me, any suggestions? I've heard something about "Toast", would this be an easier / better option?
Thank you for on-going help. Very much appreicated.
Kind regards,
Rax

I recently got a MacBook Pro and want to burn my videos taken with my iPhone to DVD. What is the easiest program for me to accomplish this? Help!

I recently got a MacBook Pro and want to burn my videos, taken with my iPhone, to DVD. What is the easiest way for me to accomplish this? I've been told I need to download a DVD creator/burner. I've downloaded 3 different free versions, but none of them seem to recognize the video files from my iPhone. I don't need anything fancy or complicated. I just want a way to store these vidoes and be able to play them on our DVD player. Help!

Copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder on your PC to /Music/ on your Mac.
Then delete what you don't want.
You will need to authorize yrou computer for the iTunes account yoru mother has.
You should create & use your own iTunes account for any more purchases.
You don't need to export anything and definitely don't need to (and shouldn't) convert anything.
