Low resolution albumart when connected to 'made for Ipod' ICE-systems.

I've recently installed a new stereo in my car. It is 'made for Ipod', and should therefore work great with my new Ipod Touch (3G) 32GB. And it does, in all ways but one. The albumart, shown on the stereo, looks really poor (with low resolution).
I've spent some time looking for info in this matter on the net. Apparently the same problem occurs with many different brands of ICE-systems (In Car Entertainment). According to posts on other forums this problem came with a recent firmware upgrade (v3.0?), and possibly has something to do with coverflow. Older versions of Ipods apparently shows crisp albumarts on these stereos (can't confirm this, my Ipod is too new).
Since it seems it could be a software related problem, can one expect a fix in future firmware upgrades? Or is this something I/we have to live with (due to limitaitons in the hardware)?

I'm having a similar problem. I can pair  my ipod nano with my BT speakers first time and work perfect, but the next time I try to play music through the speakers I MUST do a manual connection beacuse the nano not auto connects with ANY paried devices. I mean, the BT speakers appears as paried, but not connected
I am extremely frustrated too.
Any idea?
Tested with diferent devices with same behaviur.

  • Ios 4.2.1 won't connect to 'made for iPod' car stereo

    I wish I'd NOT updated from ios 3.1.3. Then I could listen to music on my iPod (touch, 2nd gen, 8gb) in my car via the car stereo (Kenwood KDC-W6541U) USB port with not problems.
    Ever since I updated to ios 4.0 (and 4.1 which didn't solve the problem either) whenever I plug my iPod the car stereo display flashes 'reading'. I've checked the Kenwood website, but there are no updates for the stereo.
    I'd hoped the 4.2.1 update would've resolve the problem, but it didn't. The main reason I'd bought an iPod was to listen music in the car!
    Recently I've not bought anything from iTunes, whats the point as I can't listen to it.
    I'm getting disillusioned. I've tried plugging/unplugging, switching on/off, resetting, etc, etc with no success. Anyone got any ideas?
    Apple, get this sorted, please! ios 3.1.3 worked fine.

    I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. i have a kenwood kvt-514 head unit. once i updated my ipod touch to v4.2.1 some songs didn't play, no album artwork was displayed, ect. i tried doing all of the above and nothing. hopefully apple is working this out.

    I get a message "The Itunes server could not be contacted, check your internet connection" when trying to check for Ipod Nano software updates. I have a 1st generation Nano and haven't updated the software for a while. My internet connection is working. Was thre a change in the internet address for NANO software updates? Do I have to reconfigure something in Itunes to point to the correct address?

    What version of iTunes are you using?  The latest is 10.6.3. In iTunes, choose Help -> About iTunes to check the version number. If it's lower than 10.6.3, download the latest version from here.

  • I want to create a HD disc with my Adobe Premier Elements but I am getting low resolution.  When I go to share the DVD to disc the form only offers 8pixels at the bottom.  How do I burn this DVD in HD with higher number of pixels?

    I want to create a HD disc with my Adobe Premier Elements but I am getting low resolution.  When I go to share the DVD to disc the form only offers 8pixels at the bottom.  How do I burn this DVD in HD with higher number of pixels?  I have read other forums on burning HD DVD's but I do not see the option to turn the 8 pi into 40 pi the one forum recommended.  I want my DVD to be HD so I may sell these videos online for my business.  I can't sell them the low quality they are burning now.  Hopefully you can help me.  Thanks.

    Thank you for your reply.
    You cannot burn your high resolution video that you can view on your computer to an AVCHD on DVD disc
    that will replay through a regular DVD player. But players are marketed under a variety of names with
    different support opportunities. One manufacturer may call its product MultiMedia Player, media player, Blu-ray player,
    etc.The bottom line is the specifications for each of the players that are candidates for the playback of
    the AVCHD format on DVD disc or the format of interest.
    If you upload your HD (1920 x 1080) video to YouTube, YouTube converts the video to flash format, but it goes up as the HD video.
    But, beware. Look at the YouTube viewing setting when your uploaded video is playing back. The YouTube default is not
    HD. It might be 360p, 480p. If you have a 1080p video, then before the YouTube playback, you should be looking
    at the video with the YouTube 1080p HD setting for best viewing. That is a YouTube matter.
    Best results depend on you
    a. setting up the Premiere Elements project preset to match the properties of the source media. That means, if
    you have 1080p source, you (manually) or the project (automatically) set the project preset at
    NTSC
    DSLR
    1080p
    DSLR [email protected]
    or the PAL counterpart, depending on your region need.
    b. if you upload your video to YouTube using the Premiere Elements feature, there is a HD preset, but you cannot
    customize it.....if you need customization, then you can export your Timeline to a file...in this example
    Publish+Share
    Computer
    AVCHD
    with Presets = MP4 H.264 1920 x 1080p30 or PAL counterpart
    and then customize the preset under the Advanced Button/Video Tab of that preset. In increase quality, you might look to increase
    the Bitrate under Advanced Button/Video Tab settings - without compromising the file size.
    Then you would upload that file to YouTube at the YouTube web site.
    All of the above are factors that need looking into in order to determine the why for what you wrote
    I have published a shortened advertisement video to YouTube- say 5 minutes-
    and it is low quality
    Often SD video upscaled to HD can present poorly. But, you are dealing with a HD workflow so that should not be introduced into the matter. The setup of the project and
    the properties of the source video are important, but let us start with the above and rule in or out those considerations first.
    Thank you. As always, any clarification needed, please do not hesitate to ask.

  • Samsung DVD Home Theater HT-X50 "Made for iPod"

    We purchased the Samsung Home Theater system because it had "Made for iPod" on the box and player. We couldn't get it to recognize the USB source, so I checked the manual. NONE of the compatible devices listed are iPod's. I called Samsung technical support, and they told me I should have read the manual before purchasing the player. Has anyone else had this experience?

    Page 19 of the users manual.
    "AUX1 : Connecting an External Analog Component/iPod MP3
    You can listen to the audio from an External Analog Component/iPod MP3 player through the main unit.
    1 Connect AUX IN 1 (Audio) on the Home Theater to the Audio Out of the external analog component/
    iPod MP3.
    2 Press the AUX button on the remote control to select <AUX1> input.
    - You can also use the FUNCTION button on the main unit.
    The mode switches as follows : DVD/CD ➝ DIGITAL IN ➝ AUX 1 ➝ AUX 2 ➝ USB ➝ FM.
    • When the unit is powered on and you connect an iPod MP3 player, the unit will charge your iPod's battery."

  • HT1665 My ipod does not charge on wall chargers or speaker/chargers made for ipods.

    My sister is able to charge her ipod to the wall chargers and speaker/chargers made for ipods and my ipod touch will not charge on these.

    See the not-charging topic of:
    iPod touch: Hardware troubleshooting
    Have you tried another cable?
    Another charging source? Does iTunes see the iPod when you connect to your computer?
    Look at the dock connector on the iPod. Look for abnormalities like bent or corroded contacts, foreign material and cracked or broken plastic.

  • Low resolution AirPlay when using MacBook Pro but high when using iPad

    I have a very strange issue. When I use Airplay from my iPad the image on the television is very clear and sharp, looking like a great HD picture. Wen I stream from my MacBook Pro, or mirror the screen, to the Apple TV the image degrades to a choppy, low-resolution, muddy version that looks terrible! It's strange because I have not had this issue before.
    Anyone have any ideas on what is going on with this? Again, the image from the iPad is fine, the image from the MacBook Pro is low-resolution. Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

    Maya,
    I just had a new TV, DVD, Apple TV et al installed today, and the installer told me that he generally sees better performance using Airplay from an iPad vs a Mac.  As I began to play around with my device today, this was certainly true for me as well.  No idea why.

  • Onscreen (Popup) notifications when connection is made to internet

    Can anyone please tell me how to disable the onscreen "popup" type notifications that the Linksys system displays each time the router makes a connection to the internet?  These notifications are very, very annoying and always come on and block out some part of whatever is being displayed on the bottom right of the screen. When they occur, it states that "Connection made on internet connection 6, or 5, or whatever number the connection is made on.  Sometimes it simply states "Internet Connection Made".  Then when I "X" out the message block to get it off the screen I sometimes lose whatever was being displayed on the entire screen.  I hope I've described this so it can be understood because I'd really like someone who has experienced this to help me get rid of it.  I've used everyone of Linksys' faq, email help, and other "customer service" aids and none of them work. And since Linksys does not offer CS one one one help like other companies, this makes solving the problem even more frustrating and difficult.  Any help will be greatly appreciated.  Thank You In Advance, and I'll send you an apple if you can help me    

    Thanks for the help.  But, I have installed all kinds of hardware and software on this computer and if I uninstall all of that my entire system would shut down and probably just roll over and die.  As far as contacting either the hardware or pc vendor, they'd just laugh and thank me for doing all of that work for them.  

  • App is terminated right away when connection is made.

    It did work fine in the earlier version, but it doesn’t work anymore. ( currently using 8.0.12 )
    Does this happen only to me? 
    My mac is currently on OSX Yosemite ( 10.10.1 ) and it’s mid 2011, 13-inch.
    Remote app is immediately terminated when connection is successfully made. 
    What’s even worse is, If I turn on automatic full-screen mode, the screen turns all white and there’s nothing I can do about it but quit the app.
    This has been so great tool for me to use window system on my mac until the very earlier version. But now everything has gone. Is this some kind of unexpected error in this new version? Since you provide us this app for free, I would like to help you find out
    this problem if directly looking at my system is necessary for you. 
    I'm looking forward to a good feedback.
    Thank you in advance.

    Hi Hina,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    What happens if you directly remote desktop to any server? Does the connection is normal at that time?
    Try to delete the cache of MAC and check whether there is any improvement found. Also you can collect logs for further troubleshooting.

  • Outlook: "Send Immediately when connected" not working for Word 2010

    When i disable the option in Outlook "Send Immediately when connected" the messages are placed in the Outbox until i send them manually.
    But when i want to send a Word 2010 document from within Word 2010 by E-Mail the message is send immediately.
    Is it possible to place the message/document in the Outbox just like with Outlook?
    Thnx in advance.

    Hi,
    I cannot reproduce this problem in my environment. When I send a Word document by clicking File > Save & Send > Send as Attachment, it just go to the Outbox like the common message.
    Does this issue happen to all Word documents at any time?
    What's the send/receive interval you set in your Outlook? It could still occur that your message will be sent near instantly when you send a message right before the automatic send/receive interval takes place.
