Listen to Nano through DVD player in car

I have in and out jacks in my car that is used for auxillary equipment (camcorder, video games). I have red, white, yellow input jacks. If I find the correct cables (mini jack on one end) can I play my 4G Nano through the speakers?

The best adaptors are connected your car stereo, and also _charge the iPod battery_, the sound will play from your car stereo speakers.
Something like:

  • How to connect apple tv to older tv's through dvd player?

    Is there a way to connect the apple tv to an older tv through a dvd player or just to the tv?
    thx

    No, you have to connect it to the TV. If you don't have an HDTV you would need to find a converter and HDMI is the only thing officially supported on the current model so there's no guarantee it'll work. Some have had success, others haven't

  • Listening to nano through ipod dock and external speakers

    Hi,
    Need some help here. I've just upgraded from my old 10gb iPod to a nano, and everything is fine until I try to listen to it through my external JBL creature speakers. I've plugged the nano into an ipod dock, which is connected to the speakers, and no sound is coming out. I plugged in my old ipod, and it worked fine. Any help?
    Cheers

    David, here's my interpretation of what you just posted:
    iPod nano Dock enables quick connectivity if you have a desktop computer without an easily accessible USB 2.0 port. No more reaching behind the computer to plug it in — just place iPod nano in the dock and it’s ready to sync with iTunes and charge its battery. <<</div>
    This means that the dock connection connects to the internal battery and allows you to transfer data (sync w/ iTunes).
    And you can plug a stereo mini cable to its line-out port and enjoy a clean, direct connection to a stereo or powered speakers<<</div>
    This means you can plug a stereo mini cable into the same port you use to plug in your headphones. The other end would go into your stereo or powered speakers. Which means no dock connection with line out audio!
    I would not be able to use the nano with my Altec Lansing speakers or my Sik Imp (which is how I listen to my iPod mini in my Honda Element). So no nano for me!
    Apple's marketing strategy is all too clear to me now. They didn't discontinue the mini, their best selling iPod, because that's what everyone is trying to copy. They discontinued it because they felt sales of the mini were cannibalizing sales of hte regular iPod. If you wanted something more compact than the iPod but wanted dock connectivity to all the various accessories, you bought a mini. Now you buy the nano for compactness AND the regular iPod to use with the accessories. So where one product satisfied two needs for the average user (not the afficianados that have iPod collections) Apple will now happily sell you two products.
    To all those people who asked what the mini has that the nano doesn't, this looks like it: line out audio through the dock connection. A very important feature!

  • IDVD movie won't fit TV when played through DVD player

    I imported photos to iPhoto, created a 16:9 movie in iMovie, then created a 16:9 Magic iDVD project. The burned disc plays and looks great on my mac. But when viewed on my 16:9 HD TV through a DVD player, all of the images are stretched well beyond the borders of the screen. The "TV Safe" option in iDVD seems related but appears to apply only for slideshows, not for iMovies. Can anybody tell me where I went wrong and how to fix it?

    Steve,
    It sounds like the default setting of your set top DVD player is 'Pan and Scan' instead of 'Letterbox'.
    Go into the menu of your player and change the default setting for 'what to do when a 16:9 disc is inserted' to 'Letterbox'. If you can find it, the manual for your DVD player should tell you exactly how to do this.

  • Better capturing dvd through dvd player or dv tape transfer?

    I've got a dvd to import in to final cut pro.
    i've tried converting the dvd in to a quicktime file through the shareware MPEG-Streaming program but im getting dropped frames and even with them repared the loss in quality is too great.
    Would i be better off rigging my dvd player up to fcp through my camera and importing it that way or would i get a higher quality result by having the dvd transferred on to mini dv and importing that directly through my camera?
    Sorry, i would spend a day or two tinkering but i've already lost a morning faffing around on this as it is. does anyone have any ideas?
    thanks very much. sorry if im asking stupid questions.

    thanks. it's really just a quality issue. the files are pretty short so timecode isn't such an issue and to be honest if disaster hits im dead in the water even with a backup plan. this is the third time i've had my brief changed and i've only got a weekend left to do the job in.
    grrrr.
    thanks for being so helpful and for responding so quickly!

  • IMovie save on Harddrive and played through DVD player

    I have a DVD player that can use a flash drive. Instead of burning my IMovie project in IDVD to a disc, how can i get a finalized IDVD movie on my flash/harddrive to play from the DVD player?

  • DVD  player doesn't play movies with .avi extension

    My friend recently gave me dvds that had movies burnt off the net. They're all files with .avi extensions. When i tried to open the file, it said i needed a higher version of quick time player, which i downloaded off the apple site.
    After all this, i still can't play my dvd. What's happening here? The drive also makes these weird noises, like there's something seriously going wrong with the dvd. I tried playing it through dvd player on my mac book pro, but i couldn't open any file on it. It keeps sayin " NOT PERMITTED" . Funny part is, my friend could easily watch all these movies on his windows xp computer...
    Please helppp !!!

    I think it is unforgivable a DVD player won't play DVD's that are not actually DVD's at all but data disks. I am still mad my DVD player will not paint my house.
    Windows uses the one size fits all WM Player and it plays DVD and data disks or files etc.
    Use Quicktime and Perian (free) to play those pesky files either from the DVD or from a drag and drop to the desktop first.

  • Mac Pro 2014 DVD Player -70017 error: VLC OpenGL is not supported

    I am setting up my new 2014 Mac Pro from a mid 2010 Mac Pro via VNC (Finder/Go/Connect to Server) as I only have the Apple 30" Cinema display which is connected to my 2010.  I was encountering problems:
    1) DVD player would never start, giving the error "DVD Player encountered a system error Error: -70017."  If you hit OK the message dismisses and DVD player exits.  There is a CNET article that states a -70012 error can happen if you don't have an internal drive.  This is, of course, true for the 2014 Mac Pro.
    2) VLC gives the error when opening a VIDEO_TS file on disk  "OpenGL acceleration is not supported on your Mac.  Your Mac lacks Quartz Extreme acceleration ....".  It does play videos, but they play extremely slow.
    After a hour on the line with Apple Support we determined that the problem is VNC .  VNC connections disable some drivers.  I connected the keyboard and monitor directly to the 2014 Mac Pro, and both programs worked perfectly.  With the programs working I then moved the monitor back to the 2010 and tried to resume playback using VNC.  The errors returned.
    Just wanted to pass this info along in case someone else encounters the same issue.

    Same problem here but a slight twist.
    2011 iMac running Mountain Lion 10.8.3 with DVD player 5500.38.2
    2009 Mac Mini running Mountain Lion 10.8.3 with DVD player 5500.38.2
    DVD rips with RipIt, stored on a NAS.
    iMac will play the rips through DVD player. 
    Mac Mini will not play rips through DVD player, but will play through VLC.
    Mac Mini previously worked, but not sure what version OSX it was running then, could have been pre-Mountain Lion.
    Curious about what's causing this.  It's a bit frustrating!

  • Problems with Superdrive and DVD Player

    The first problem is that for a long time, I haven't been able to eject disks by pushing the eject button (on the keyboard, in DVD player, etc) - I have to manually drag the DVD/CD on the desktop to the trash can/eject, or click the eject button in Finder. I know the button itself works fine, because I can eject disks in my Ubuntu Linux partition.
    The second problem is that sometimes, while playing DVDs through DVD Player, the Player and/or the DVD itself in the drive freezes up. I can't quit the program, I can't eject the disk, I have to reboot to kill the program and eject the disk. This has happened on random DVDs (only, not any CDs), both that I own and that I received from NetFlix. The disks themselves are not bad, as they will run fine in VLC.
    Any help with either of these problems? For what it's worth, the problems both started well before I partitioned the hard drive to install Linux.

    Nope, didn't have a clue about that. Had to get my hard drive replaced, but everything's working fine now and holding the eject button down for a couple of seconds works.
    Thanks!

  • Connect iPod Videos to Car DVD Player

    Which wire would I need so I could play my videos on my iPod through my car DVD player?

    What video inputs does the car DVD player have? You can (depending upon the model iPod you have) purchase video-out connectors that have VGA, component and composite out. Some movies, depending upon the source, may have DRM protection that prevent using the VGA out.

  • Dvd for dvd player through TV set

    I have iMovie 7.1.4, which I am assuming is iMovie 8. Is there a way to take a slide show with music from iPhoto and make an iMovie version that will play on a DVD player through the television? I have made and burned a DVD that plays on Macs and PC's. When I put it in the DVD player connected to my TV, I receive a message on the TV screen "unknown disk."
    Thanks,
    BF

    You need to burn your movie with iDVD.

  • How can I play my ipad through my dvd player

    How an I play my ipad music through my dvd player or hi fi?

    If you're just looking to play audio, the easiest way is to buy an AirPort Express and connect your stereo to the miniplug jack, then play using AirPlay. That's how I do it! And as an added bonus, it can extend your wireless network.

    An AppleTV would work too, if you're also looking to stream video.

  • DVD Player freezes and quits midway through movie

    Hello,
    I tried to find a topic like this already in existence, but I had no luck, so I decided to post one of my own. Today my DVD Player has been acting up. I rented a couple of DVDs from Blockbuster and tried to watch them on my computer. The one I watched yesterday worked fine. Today, however, the player froze up and went to spinning beach ball of death about halfway through the movie. It suggested I check the DVD for scratches, and I did, but it's fine. Just in case, though, I tried to put in another movie. This time, the DVD got through the previews and to the menu before doing the same thing. Can somebody give me an idea as to what is going on and how I can fix it? Is my computer just 'tired' from being on all day?

    Yup same problem here, started after I upgraded to 10.6.4 in late June, when my MacBook Pro was less than 2 months old.
    Apple replaced the optical drive, same problem.
    The fix can be easy such as restarting the DVD player or ejecting the disc and putting it back in, to rebooting the laptop. When it won't read the disc at all I have to do an optical drive reset, which always fixes the problem, for awhile anyway.
    I've struggled with trying to duplicate the problem- I've been in to the genius bar four times now and they say they can't do anything more until I can duplicate it. I've done an archive install, they suggest a clean install which I'm reluctant to do at this point.
    It seems to be related to-
    1) how long the computer has been running since the last reboot- a day of surfing increases chances of error
    2) power- if I go on battery power for awhile I'll almost always get a quits unexpectedly. That seems to be the start of a downward slide, where eventually it won't read a disc at all. It's also telling that an optical drive reset, which resets the power to the optical drive, always fixes the problem.
    Turns out the power cord was slowly going south, which multiplied the number of dvd errors. Apple gave me a new power cord late August and the dvd errors are less frequent, tho still 2-3x/week.
    The quits unexpectedly errors are usually SIGSEGV and SIGBUS.
