IPhone video out problem

I have a iPhone compatible composite video out cable. When I select a video to play, it plays (video/audio) on the TV for about 8 seconds then the video quits playing. The iPhone goes back to the video list screen. When I restart the video only audio plays back on the TV. The video plays on the iPhone screen. Anyone have any suggestions?

Do you have the Apple Composite AV Cable? Note that there's a decryption chip in the Apple cable that's required for functionality with the iPhone. 3rd party cables don't work (although they may claim to work, they don't).

  • The Video Out Problem...Fixed?

    I know Wikipedia can be edited by virtually anyone with membership and an opinion, but I had to know.
    It said that an itunes update 1.0.2 fixed the video out problem...does that mean that videos can now be connected to a TV and play on the TV? They fixed that?
    I am still ever in the market for the nano, just waiting until the right ammount of money to purchase one. Thanks

    I think it is currently working according to this knowledgebase article: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=300233
    That is, for the new Nano, you can use the older iPod Universal Dock (ie the normal one that has been available for a couple of years) together with an iPod composite video cable or an SVideo cable (ie all currently-available stuff you may have already bought for a previous-series video iPod), OR you can use the brand new "Apple Universal Dock" with the brand new Apple Composite AV Cable or with the (new) Apple Component AV Cable, OR you can use one of those brand new Apple AV Cables directly with the Nano (without the new Apple Universal Dock).
    What you cannot do is connect an old video cable or accessory, which was expecting to get composite video from the RCA/audio jack on the Nano, because it looks like (on the new Nano and the Classic) the audio out jack is now just for audio out and video is only available via the dock connector on the iPod.

  • IPhone 2G video out problems

    Hi all,
    Since updating to 2.1 (via Pwnage) I have been unable to get video out in my iPhone 2G.
    I have Apple component AV cables which worked fine on 2.01 with both my TV and the projectors used at University (I use this in my lectures). Upgrading to 2.2 has not fixed the problem.
    Annyhoo, once I plug them in I get the dreaded 'This device is not compatible etc...' message and all I get is audio. I have even had this warning when using the cable and the wall plug to recharge.
    I have looked through MacTalk and Apple's Support site and several people have been having trouble with 3rd party cables but mine are Apple, came in the nice shiny (expensive) box 'n everything. Apple Support (US) definitely lists this cable as compatible with my iPhone.
    Can anyone offer practical advice, or do I have to back to 2.01 to get this to work?

    Restore your iPhone to the factory firmware, then try the Apple Component AV Cable. Else, seek elsewhere for assistance, as Apple Discussions is not the place to seek support for hacked/jailbroken iPhones.

  • IPad video out problem

    Dear forum users,
    I have an iPad with the latest iOS software update, and I am trying to link it with an ACER K11 pico projector (which they advertise to work with iPad).
    I am using the Apple video out vga cable, as well as a compatible app like "keynote".
    Unfortunately, all I get is a "no signal" message on the projector. The projector works well with other video sources.
    I tried it with my iPhone 4 and got the same result.
    Any idea what could be the problem?
    Many thanks
    Macphi

    Just checking: Did you actually run a presentation? You won't get anything on an external display until you actually start a presentation. VGA out is limited to apps that explicitly support it and even then only in some situations (e.g. the Photos app will only display something once you start a slideshow).

  • IPod Touch 2nd Gen Video Out Problem with Apple Component Cable

    I'm trying to get video out working with my iPod touch connected to my TV. Here's the information.
    32 GB iPod Touch 2nd Gen
    Apple Universal Dock (current version.)
    Apple Component Out cable for iPod (current version that connects with a dock connector.
    I've connected the component cables into the component video input on my TV. When I start playing any video (purchased off iTunes store in Standard Def,) I get a scrambled picture that appears to be the video, and no sound. I purchased the TV in South Korea and haven't gotten to test it yet on a TV back in the US. I have my video out settings with wide screen turned off and set to NTSC (South Korea uses NTSC.) I've also tried every setting combination, and switching the cable connections with the same or similar results. Sorry if a similar problem has been posted elsewhere, but after searching, I couldn't find any similar behavior. Any ideas on what might be the cause? I don't have any other component devices to check if the component on the TV is bad.

    I've got that same problem: iPod Touch 2nd Gen, Apple Component Cables, and an HD TV.
    The funny thing is, the cable works fine with an iPod Classic (160 GB) but not for the iPod Touch. Can anyone explain why that is?

  • G5 video out problem w/ 23" cinema display

    Yesterday I moved my G5 and 23" display into another room in my house. When I plugged everything in and turned on the computer, the monitor was not responding. I plugged the 23" display into my powerbook G4 laptop, and it functioned properly as a second monitor. At this point, I ruled out the monitor as the issue.
    With the monitor plugged back into the G5 tower again, I restarted the computer, and without seeing anything, I entered my username and password to login. I could tell that the computer was working, but the video out was not. I then used the keystroke to properly shut down the computer.
    The next time I restarted it, the display came on, but after about 10 minutes, it froze. I suspect a problem with the video card.
    Here's the big question though. I also noticed that the computer gave an error on one of the processors. It could be related, but it may be another issue. I've had the computer since July of 05. Is it too late to buy the apple care service to cover a video card and new processor (potentially), or am I in for a costly repair?

    Yesterday I moved my G5 and 23" display into another
    room in my house. When I plugged everything in and
    turned on the computer, the monitor was not
    responding.
    Since ou have moved the machine, as well as disconnected/reconnected the monitor, it is possible the video card has become (at least partially) unseated.
    Verify the card is fully and properly seated in the slot, no pins are damaged/bent, that the cable is fully seated, and that the cable did not get pinched/damaged in the process of the move.
    (Generally, if you wiggle/jiggle the cable around, and the monitor cuts in/out or changes colors, there could be a broken wire in the cable.)

  • MacBook Video Out problems.

    Hey all.
    Bit of an issue regarding my Macbook. It's a 2ghz Duo With ram upgraded to 4gb by myself. For some reason the video out on my Macbook has decided to stop working. Is it possible that it's hardware related? I have tried the following.
    1: Bypassing my Onkyo TSR 609 amp straight to TV
    2: Lowering resolutions (although 1080i and p was fine)
    3: Bootcamping into windows to see if its an OSX issue. (my friends Samsung laptop works just fine through all the various combinations)
    4: Punching it.
    Im at a loss now, was working fine, got my new amp and was working fine through that for a week (havent changed any settings on it, and as I said same issues straight to TV which is a 42" Sharp XD1E) and the picture just comes out as multicoloured digital noise but you can just about make out whats on screen.Its a fairly weak connection on the MiniDVI port on laptop itself, It's connected via MiniDVI to DVI/HDMI dongle. I have also swapped out cables. It's not the amp as my PS3 blasts out 1080p with NO issues, please help!

    Your Mac runs maintenance in the background for you.
    Command + R gives you access to restore, repair, or reformat the drive using OS X Recovery
    No idea why that was suggested.
    You may have a third party video player installed that's causing an incompatibility issue.
    Check these folders:
    /Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
    /Library/Input Methods/
    /Library/InputManagers/
    /Library/ScriptingAdditions
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/
    ~/Library/Input Methods/
    ~/Library/InputManagers/
    ~/Library/ScriptingAdditions
    The first four locations listed are in the root-level Library on your hard disk, not the user-level Library in your Home folder.The tilde (~) represents your Home folder.
    To access the Home folder in OS X Lion or Mountain Lion, open the Finder, hold the Option key, and chooseGo > Library.

  • IPhone Video Out?

    I want to be able to show video on a TV, and with the new 1.1.1 update we are supposed to be able to do that. Has anyone been able to do this? Is there even a dock or cable that has been made for the iphone?

    Essentially he's right, except that you can preorder the cables now.

    Note that since the Touch is out these cables are of prime importance, so I'm sure they will be available within the month as they state. Also note you can buy either a composite or a component video cable -- make sure you get the one you need unless you need both (at $50 a piece it's kind of pricey to pick them both up)

  • Iphone videos files problems

    Hello, I'm having the follows problems:

    Sounds like the videos are not in an iPhone compatible format.

  • 7.01 video out problem

    I have upgraded to 7.01, and the setup I have used for looking at my video doesn't work anymore.
    I use Easy Setup to firewire DV to a DSR-20, whose output is connected by an s-video cable to a Sony 13" Hi-Res monitor. I do get an output, but there is a black rectangle in the display, the same as if I where trying to play a write protected DVD on the Sony.
    Is FCP sending out a write protect signal? If so, how can I disable it?

    Just wanted to add that I'm having the same issue.
    iMovie 7.0 worked fine (and yes, I like it fine -- I would only be upset if Apple had taken iMovie HD away, but of course they didn't so I don't see why the whiners are so ... well, whiny!).
    Applied the 7.0.1 update and now iMovie will not launch. Activity Monitor shows that the program grabs and holds the entire second CPU on my C2D MacBook. I waited several minutes for it to work out whatever it was struggling with to no avail. A simple force quit from the dock immediately quit the program and brought the CPUs under control.
    Naturally I tried re-applying the update (nothing changed), checking to see if the problem existed with a "fresh" admin account (it did), repairing permissions (nope), restarting (nada), running AppleJack (un-uh) and even applying the update as root (no good).
    I'm out of ideas, and a little nervous because I'm teaching a class on this thing on Saturday and can't work with it in its present state. I'm confident Apple will notice the issue and re-issue the update in due course (as they usually do when an update has unintended side effects), but I hope they hurry!

  • Macbook video out problem  mini dvi port????  wierd video tranission

    I have been using the Apple cable that converts the mini-dvi to rca jack for connection to external video screen for some time now. All of a sudden, i try to hook it up to the tv to watch a movie and it wont work.
    Here is the funny part... it still transmits video, it will show the image of my desktop... today i switched my desktop image, and tried again to hook it up... this time it shows the OLD desktop image... no icons or anything, just the image.
    Any ideas as to why its doing this? It worked well last week, no other problems, abuse etc, all of a sudden it doesnt work.
    frustrated... please help

    Difficult to tell from your description, but it sounds to me like your Displays in System Preferences may be set to extended desktop mode instead of video mirroring mode.

  • Video out problem with Dynex 32" 720p TV

    Hi folks.  I bought my new Dynex TV a few days before New Years.  It's great, really sharp, and I've had no problems with it.  However, I do have a DVD recorder so I can record my games.  Tonight, I attempted to use the A/V output on my TV and connected them to my DVD recorder (which plugs into my computer).  I clicked "capture" and got an error telling me that a connection could not be established and that I should double check my cables.  I could hear the audio playing through my laptop speakers just fine.  I couldn't see the video, for some reason .
    It's not the cables, I just took them off of my old TV to use them here.
    What can I do?  Should I return my TV?

    What about output from a gaming console, like a PS3? Is that only digital sources or does it matter how the PS3 is connected to the television to determine if's its a digital or analog signal?  Right now I get no output when I try to send the video of my PS3 to my composite video in on my computer's TV tuner card.

  • Mac-Mini HTPC Video-Out Problems (Component to DVI)

    I recently decided to go with a Mac-Mini as the central-brain of my HTPC configuration, and I was immediately halted in the process of getting things working by my inability to properly output video from the Mac-Mini such that it's even visible on my 50" Plasma TV (Panasonic TH-50PHW3).
    Neither of my A/V Receivers (Denon AVR-3805 & Denon AVR-2805) have HDMI inputs, but both of them have component video inputs for HD content, so I purchased the DVI-to-Component cable linked below to use for outputting video from my Mac-Mini to the Denon:
    http://sewelldirect.com/DVI-to-Component-Adapter-Cable-6ft.asp
    Needless to say, nothing I've tried has been effective in my Mac-Mini being displayed on my Plasma TV??
    Any thoughts?

    From other threads I see that others have tried and failed at this. The adapter cables don't work with the Mini (or other Macs as far as I know). Apparently you need a "transcoder" box. It will apparently take the DVI port's RGB signals and convert them to Y-Pb-Pr component signals.
    The transcoders can also cost a couple hundred bucs. Check out some of the discussions at http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=824143
    Here is a relatively cheap one that seems to work: http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=63079 2&CatId=1430
    Other option is to go with a S-Video adapter http://store.apple.com/us/product/M9267G/A but you will loose resolution.l

  • 7.01 firewire video out problem

    I have upgraded to 7.01, and the setup I have used for looking at my video doesn't work anymore.
    I use Easy Setup to firewire DV to a DSR-20, whose output is connected by an s-video cable to a Sony 13" Hi-Res monitor. I do get an output, but there is a black rectangle in the display, the same as if I where trying to play a write protected DVD on the Sony.

    #8 External Monitor Viewing.
    Shane's Stock Answer #8:
    A simple path is mac > firewire > camera or deck > rca cables > tv
    Then start up your camera and tv, then open fcp.
    Then go View > External video > all frames
    Video playback should be Apple firewire NTSC (If you are using an NTSC set)
    Audio playback should be Audio follows Video
    Techinially, this should send synched video to your TV
    If for some reason you can't view your timeline on your external monitor, there are a few things to try:
    1) Make sure that the camera/deck is connected and powered on BEFORE you open FCP.
    2) In the Final Cut Pro menu select AUDIO/VIDEO Preferences and make sure your signal is being sent out thru Firewire DV.
    3) Go to the menu and select VIEW>EXTERNAL>ALL FRAMES.
    4) Click in the % box above the image and select FIT TO WINDOW.
    5) Go to VIEW->refresh A/V devices
    6) Make sure the Log & Capture window is closed
    If you want it to play in both the canvas and the external monitor you need to go to the FINAL CUT PRO menu and select AUDIO/VIDIO settings and make sure MIRROR ON DESKTOP is selected under the PLAYBACK OUTPUT section
