IPod Tv via blu-ray theatre system iPod Dock -- Help!

I am trying to watch videos from my iPod Touch 2G by using the iPod dock on my panasonic blu-ray home theatre system. A message popped up saying
"Please refer to the iPod display for operations. If you want to view photo(s) or watch video(s), please switch TV input mode to "Video" (Composite video)"
How do I go about making this work? I have searched every where for an answer and have found nothing.
Thank you for the help,
Erik

Hello, Welcome to discussions.
On your iPod Touch, If you go to
-Settings - iPod - TV out controls are at the bottom. Where you can control Wide Screen On/Off, and use either NTSC or PAL. Along with controlling closed captioning if it is available on the videos you are playing.

  • How do i connect my iPod classic to my home theatre system?

    I'd like to play my iPod through my LG home theatre system but am sure how to connect it. There's a USB and microphone port on the front.

    Hi Twofishdan,
    I think that the easiest way to connect the iPod is via an aux-to-aux cable, which you plug in to the 3.5mm aux jack (headphone/microphone port) in your home cinema system, and the other end in the iPod's headphone jack.
    You could also try using your normal Apple 30 pin sync/charge cable, plugging it in the USB slot and connecting your iPod, but this might not work if the home theatre wasn't programmed to connect Apple devices via USB, therefore it's a trial and error process which you might be lucky to work for you.
    Good Luck,
    Stefan

  • Conncting Ipod to a Blu Ray Player

    I recently bought a blu-ray player and i have tried connecting my ipod. I can find music and play it however the songs are all in four letter codes and not the names so it is lucky dip as to what song I choose. Also they are arranged into folders (F00, F01, F02 etc.) which I have not put them in. I have checked and they don't appear to be in any particular order either e.g alphabetical. Any help on how to get the names of the songs/ understand the codes would be appreciated.

    Enable disk use for the iPod and copy songs onto it manually. An iPod doesn't store playable music in the same way that an MP3 player does.

    so the only was is to use the cable to connnect it from my notebook to Ipod touch??
    depends. for syncing and software updates: yes.
    for putting e.g. MS Office files or .pdf files on it: check out e.g. _*Flash Drive*_ or _*Documents To Go*_. both require a wi-fi connection, though.
    what about if I download any bluetooth program from the App Store ( For Example: iBlueNova ).
    searching the app store for iBlueNova did not bring up anything for me. instead, search for +bluetooth fileshare+. maybe that app is for you ...

  • Blue ray player connection to web help

    Just wondering if any iMac people have recently successfully connected their blue ray player to the internet? Apple tells me that I have to purchase "Apple TV" device. The Sony player (BDP-N460) I purchased said I only need to buy an additional 'Linksys-Cisco WET610N' wireless bridge and a LAN cable for it to work. Which is correct, or maybe both are, but which one is the more cost/efficient one? Thanks in advance!
    iMac Intel Duo,20",2.16Ghz,1GB,Airport Express

    I too have the same BD player and have just connected the WET610n bridge to my Airport Extreme -- it's just a question of configuring this-or-that. Only that Linksys put the manual on a Mac-incompatible CD.
    You can find the product manual on this page which describes the unit, and then go to the downloads page, select Version 1.0 from the drop-down menu, and then a link to Mac-compatible setup wizard will display. Download it if you like.
    There's an easier way. Make sure your player is plugged into your TV and turn the TV on. (In my case, I was configuring the bridge with a Sony Bravia HDTV. I assume a Mac would be no different.) Press the MENU key on the BD player remote and navigate to the leftmost menu item, a small suitcase. Scroll down to select Network Settings, then Network Connection Diagnostics. When it tells you the obvious that you're not connected, backtrack to Internet Settings.
    Assuming you've plugged the Ethernet cable and bridge together, and connected the bridge to a power outlet, you can select Wireless Bridge Setup. Since your network is out there waiting to be found, select Scan, and then select your network. An onscreen keypad will open for you to enter your security key, after which you'll experience a minute or two as the bridge gets programmed and a connection is made to your network.
    Return to the suitcase menu and select Network Update to see if new system software is available for the BD player itself. If there is, it will download and warn you NOT to turn the power off.
    You should now be able to download content off the net.

  • Low Rez Menus on my Blu Ray Disc... Help Please?

    Hello everyone.  I just created my first blu ray DVD and the everything is great and works as it should but the resolution of the menus are horrible.  My project is full HD at 1920 x 1080.  The menu background and buttons are actually blurry!  I use Windows 7 by the way.  Any ideas on what I did wrong?  Are there special HD menus that I should have selected from? 
    Thanks for any help.
    Bob

    OK.. guess what?  I picked an HD menu this time confident that I just messed up the first go around and I burn my blu ray disc, second one now, and my menus are a little bit better but are still BAD!  I then did a bit of research on the web and learn that I'm not the only one with this problem and apparently this has been a problem with PE7,8,9 and now 10!  Have a look at this thread:  http://www.elementsvillage.com/forums/showthread.php?t=71706
    My video is excellent but my menus are blurry.
    Wow.... not good.  Can anyone point me to a work around or a fix to this problem?  Again, I'm using Windows 7 64 bit.  The menu that I used was the Pan and Zoom under Slideshows, I changed the background image to a 1920 x 1080 image, I added music, and I changed the color, siz and location of some of the text.
    I guess my next test is to use a stock HD menu with no changes and see if I get an HD menu but every time a run a "Test" I use up a blank blu ray disc.  This could get expensive.
    Again, any help would be appreciated.

  • HP DV7 Blu-Ray player problems. Please help!!

    Hi i have a HP DV7 laptop with a blu-ray drive. I have watched many blu-rays on it in the past but recently they just aren't working.
    I put the disc in and nothing happens i can hear it working inside but it doesn't even recognise that their is a disc in. Standard DVD's work fine though.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hello,
    There may be several reasons why this is happening to you. What troublshooting steps have you completed as of yet? Have you changed anything in the OS or installed any big programs since you last used the Blu-ray feature of the drive?
    What program do you usually use to play Blu-rays?
    My first suggestion would be to delete the upper & lower filtersfirst : http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314060

  • No Internet available for TV or Blu Ray systems - new problem

    I am unable to connect any TV or entertainment device to the Internet - Samsung TV, Samsung Blu Ray / Entertainment system, and Sony Blu Ray / Entertainment system. All 3 of these devices have a good connection to my Apple Airport AND my FIOS router, but nothing beyond that.
    Called support and was able to convince the tech that I can connect all my PCs, Android, and Apple devices to the Internet via my FIOS connection, but I am unable to connect anything that is a TV or Blu Ray device. Connection to the Verizon provided router is good. He said there is an outage, but they are sending a new router to replace my outdated one.
    This is a new problem, either happened Monday the 23rd or today. Sunday Feb 22 I was using my Samsung to watch Netflix all night.
    Anyone else have this issue? New router will be in on Thursday, will set up and report back...
    James
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I lost internet connection last night to Amazon prime and Netflix through my Sony Blueray player MODEL BD-570. Called Verizon tech support and with help we checked the router,cable box and internet connection. All equipment and services checked out ok except the Sony Blueray Player which could not connect to my paid services. It gave me the following message: "A network error has occured : REFERENCE ERROR CODE 303."
    The next morning Googled: Sony error code 303. I learned many other people had the same issue more than once with Sony. They had lost connection service for as long as two weeks. Their calls to Sony were disconnected. ? Some people had the newer Sony BD-590 player so it's not only my model but problems at Sony.
    I have a solution to the issue. I am going to buy a ROKU 3 and install it as my new streaming device. 
    The Sony BD 570 and other players are after all primarily a Disk Players with add on connections. A bit like a "swiss army Knife".
    The ROKU is First a streaming device with extra options. Perhaps the inverse design. 
    I hope this helps you and saves you the lost time I have spent on this problem. Samsung has also had simular issues.
    You may also have a failed internet connection board/section in your player and the disc player will function normally.

  • Dropped and glitched sound with dv9700 when watching Blu-Ray over HDMI connected to receiver

    I have hooked my dv9730nr up to my receiver (Onkyo TX-SR606) via HDMI, which then passes video through HDMI to my Panasonic plasma.  When I do this, Blu-Rays have an audio glitch every 4-6 seconds, which sounds like either quick repeated sounds or a half-second pause in audio.  The audio and video otherwise are great.  PowerDVD Ultra reports that I am outputting 5.1 Dolby Digital via PCM, and the sound from my speakers support this.  With other video, including 1080p .WMVs that I've made myself, there is no problem.  I've disabled the laptop's monitor, and am only using the TV as my display.  When I bypass the receiver, and hook my laptop straight into my TV via HDMI, there is no problem, but my TV has no built-in speakers, so no audio is being passed via HDMI.  I have no other receivers with HDMI to test my laptop, so I'm not sure that that the problem is not with the receiver.  I've tried disabling all audio output modes except for 24bit 48KHz under Realtek Digital Output in the Playback Devices control panel.
    I'm not worried about this, since I have a dedicated Sony Blu-Ray played on the way, but I am disappointed in the HDMI audio performance of this laptop.  I suspect the problem lies in the Realtek HD Audio drivers, or something wrong with the related hardware on the motherboard.  I updated my drivers from v6.0.1.5494 A to v6.0.1.5548 A, with no change.  I will try driver Vista_R213 off the Realtek website, although I'm not sure that this is compatible with my laptop.
    Any ideas/suggestions?
    Specs:
    Windows Vista Home Premium 32bit SP1
    Intel Core 2 Duo T5450 @ 1.66 Ghz
    3 GB RAM
    nVidia GeForce 8600M GS
    RealTek High Definition Audio

    Well slap me twice and call me Sally, it would appear these new Realtek drivers fixed the problem.  The drivers can be found here, but be prepared for a slow connection to the Realtek website.  Now I can indeed enjoy video and sound the way it's meant to be done via Blu-Ray, kudos Realtek for fixing this problem.

  • Connecting LG home theatre system to xbox

    "I'm looking at a blue ray home theater system (LG LHB953). I want to make sure there's a way to have my xbox play its sound through the blue ray speaker system. Here is a link to the picture of the back of the blue ray player (http://shopper.cnet.com/sc/33656614-2-440-DT4.jpg) and the TV is a toshiba 40rv525r (If you message me I can send you a link with a pic that shows the back of that too). Is there a way for me to play the xbox and tv sound through the blue ray player even though it doesn't have an extra hdmi port? For example could an audio component cable connect the two? thanks for your time"

    Nope, there shouldn't be any need to have anything going from the xbox to the receiver, unless you had additional hdmi ports in it, which you dont.
    Here is the optical cables BB sells, sorted low to high in price.
    Anything i say is not a direct response from Best Buy or Geek Squad. I just post on here to add my insight.

  • FCE 4 slideshows and Blu Ray media

    I'm a newbie to video editing and was wondering if I could use FCE 4 to import hi res photographs from Aperture 2.01 and create HD slideshows which would include the Ken Burns effects panning across my panoramic images. I would then like to output the footage to Blu Ray Disc to play in a Blu Ray set top player.
    I have Toast Titanium 9, which I'm told will handle the burning to Blu Ray Disc, but will FCE 4 handle the outputting and if so, which format would it output in?
    I also intend to invest in an HD camcorder, any recommendations for use with FCE 4/
    Many thanks
    Mark

    Yep, you certainly can - remember the approx 30 minute limit though. And the results from my Sony FX7E via Blu-ray DVD, through PS3 to my Samsung 42" are stunning, and in some carefully filmed and well lit situations exceed the quality of some of the commercial Blu-ray feature films I've watched.
    I don't know about profiles. I do know that the PS3 is rated very highly amongst Blu-ray playback devices and, of course, as on online device, it is able to download firmware updates whenever, as ours did soon after we bought it. And you get a free games machine for the kids as part of the package!

  • Optimal Quicktime Export Settings For Eventual Burning to Blu-Ray DVD

    Hello. We currently have a huge backlog of FCP, FCE HD and iMovie HD projects created in 720p and 1080i formats. While we all await FCP and DVD Pro support of the 1080p Blu-Ray DVD burning, in the mean time, what are the optimal Quicktime Export settings to get best possible rendering of my existing FCP, FCE HD and iMovie HD in preparation for eventual transfer to Blu-Ray DVD for best possible viewing on my large screen LCD TV via Blu-Ray DVD player. I'd like to get to work exporting all my movies into the optimal Quicktime format in preparation for 1080p Blu-Ray.
    For example, I have been creating FCE projects in a 1080i 60fps format. Once completed I typically have been exporting a "Full Quality" stand-alone movie. Is that what's optimal for the 1080p Blu-Ray DVD format, or something else? For example, what about interlacing? Should I be "de-interlacing" my outputted quicktime movies for better playback in the Blu-Ray 1080p format? What other things should I be considering.

    Full quality sounds like you'll be safe. Keep in mind that WHEN DVDSP gets Blu-ray support, it will be able to do al the encoding itself. I do know that the next generation DVDs are using MPEG4 or VC1 compression instead of MPEG2 like standard DVDs are today. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H.264/MPEG-4_AVC http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VC-1 That being said, I don't believe that Compressor has a VC-1 encoder, but it definitely has H.264, so if you wanted to do the encode yourself, I guess you could pick that and be set. I would do some research on the technology behind Blu-ray and then base an encode on what you find. There's also MANY threads on here about this already, so Search is your friend and use it to get more info.
    Good luck and don't forget to rate if this was helpful,

    I was just referring to the visual graphics (you know, the fireworks, stars and other stuff that reminds me of the 70's....) that you can play on the screen when iTunes is playing music?
    I noticed that these effects are not just randomly chosen, they are in fact synchronized to the beat and intensity
    of the music, and that struck me as rather cool......

  • Creating Blu-Ray DVD with Final Cut Pro and Adobe Encore

    Hi all,
    I am one of many with troubles creating a blu-ray DVD using Mac software. Sounds like the best way to do this is to do all of the editing in Final cut and create the DVD in Adobe Encore. Is there a way to export to Adobe Encore or should I just create a .mov file and import that to Encore. That way I think I lose the HD quality. I read that I could compress to Blu-ray format in Compressor, but I can only find HD DVD which is different. When I select create a Blu-Ray disc, Compressor won't simply create the file on my computer...it wants the disc to create.
    Maybe I am a little to new at this to fully understand, but why in the heck doesn't Apple get with the times and create a DVD authoring program that makes Blu-Ray?
    Thanks for any help you can offer.

    I have just completed my first blu-ray disc using FCP7 and Adobe encore. My workflow, once the timeline was complete, was to go to File>share>choose blu-ray as destination >export. The default encoding is H.264 along with an ac3 file for audio. It took 3 hours and 35 minutes to encode the 1hr 26 minute file.
    Opening encore, confirming you settings for HD, and choosing file>import>as asset each of the files (separately, of course). Encore imports them, then under Timeline>create new, then drag the files to the timeline. CLick on the build button and you are there. I did not mention that my original render was Prores422, but that should not matter here. No trouble with burning the Verbatim 25Gb disc.
    Encore will recognize that these files do not need re-encoding and burn the disc. It took 1 hour and 40 minutes to burn a 1 hour and 26 minute (17+ Gb) movie on an i7 iMac with an OWC 12x BD burner.
    Hope that helps
