N8 RCA output, No Video!

Hi!
I wanted to see some videos on my TV, so I tried to use a 3.5mm Jack - RCA cable I had at home.
I set the TV out option as default, left the default TV settings (Normal size, PAL code, and Unactive filter) and plugged the cable.
On a CRT TV I see a stream of blinking white stripes and no audio.
On a LCD TV I get the "no signal" message all the way, and audio works fine.
Am I doing something wrong?
(The cable is not a Nokia cable, but as far as I know those cables are all the same, isn't it?)

Okay, it was my cable architecture that was kinda stupid, trying to play a stereo song, I figured out that the 2 audio cables, were a mono sound duplicated... So my phone seeing only 2 channels thought that they were a stereo output. To be sure of that I plugged the yellow cable (the video one) in an audio input (red or white), and the output was a sound signal!
I went to a friend's to ask him to borrow me his CA-75U, and everything works fine!
I'm sorry for this nearly useless topic

  • Firewire Output for Video Preview Intermittent

    I'm experiencing a frustrating problem with After Effects these days.
    We're producing some video to be projected, so to see what the final output will really look like, I'm doing video previews using FireWire so output goes directly to the projector. 
    It's been working great up until yesterday.  Was working fine until I had to restart my Mac.  Upon reboot, my the projector no longer gets any video output.
    I've tried restarting numerous times, checked all connections, etc.  Got it working again after several restarts, but after switching over to Photoshop momentarily, the video output once again disappeared.
    Any suggestions on how to regain consistent Firewire output for Video Previews?
    My setup:
    After Effects CS6
    Mac Pro
    OSX Version 10.7.5
    Firewire Output of my Mac's monitor is going to the Firewire Input on my Sony Media Converter
    RCA Video out (Composite video) going to the projector's video input.
    After Effects Video Preview preferences:
    Output Device:  FireWire
    Output Mode: Apple FireWire NTSC

    Thanks for your reply, Rick.
    I finally figured it out... I had a background application running called iCam that monitors my security cameras.  I had forgotten that it uses Firewire and was intermittently hogging the resources.  Once I quit that application, everything was good once again.
    Thanks for taking the time to respond, much appreciated!

  • Video Converter Cable - VGA to Composite Video (RCA and S-Video)

    Hi,
    I have HP G60-125CA laptop (Windows Vista) and I am trying to transfer laptop image from laptop to TV (regular sony TV not HDTV) using Video Converter Cable - VGA to Composite Video (RCA and S-Video). But for some reason it's not happing.

    I think you need an active converter for this, not just a cable. Try a web search.

  • Output iPad video to 27" iMac using iPad VGA adaptor?

    Hi, I was wondering is it possible to Output iPad video to 27" iMac as an external monitor using iPad VGA adaptor?
    Thx.

    No.  The VGA adaptor is an analog connection and the only inputs are digital Mini Display / Thunderbolt ports depending on your model.  It maybe possible with a conversion box of some sort or maybe trying an HDMI to mini display port cable ($44.95) and an iPad 2.  The 27' should be able to be used as a second display but the 21 is not.  If you have the iPad 2, pick up the cable and the HDMI adapter and try it out.  If not, return the cables within two weeks.

  • Output iPad video to 27" iMac as an external monitor?

    Hi, I was wondering is it possible to Output iPad video to 27" iMac as an external monitor using iPad VGA adaptor?
    Thx.

    You'd need something to redirect the VGA signal to a DisplayPort connector on the iMac. Your other option is VGA is easily adaptable to S-Video, though its resolution is not as great as VGA and using http://www.elgato.com/ 's hardware for that. A third one is using a Remote Desktop app for the iPad. Several exist.

  • Screen says "use tv as display" have vga out and tv has rca or s-video in can I?

    I have old ze4935wm laptop with XP
    Quick button properties screen says "use tv as display" 
    It only has vga out and tv only has rca or s-video in. 
    How can I do this?

    I solved that problem.
    If your tv also has component imputs- the red/ble/green cables that look like ordinary rca cables-
    as a matter of fact you can use the regular rca audio/video cables, I do.
    Tiger direct has an item called.PC2Tv.
    It has a box- (size of a deck of cards) connect the vga wire from the box to your computer,
    connect the usb wire from the box to your computer.
    Then run the rca cables from the box to your tv.
    It comes w/ a remote, you can adjust contrast, color, sharp & brightness, etc.
    It's powered by your pc/laptop and cost about $20.
    I use one on my patio where the rear projection tv has an hdmi input, but it doesn't work for computers-
    the tv's manual says that the hdmi input is just for dvd players.
    I also use one in my garage, where I have a crt tv.
    Works perfect.

  • Output 24pn video for television?

    Here is the situation. I’m working on a video which I shot 720p 24pn on my HVX200. I need to output the video onto tape to play on local TV channels (so I'm assuming i need to make the tape NTSC 29.97 interlaced, 720x480)
    I’m using fcp 5.1.4. My sequence is set to 'DVCPRO HD 720p60' with the frames per second set to 23.97.
    *This is my question- What is the best workflow step by step going from the 720p24pn timeline to a NTSC tape?*
    Can FCP add the pulldown to the 720p 24pn footage? Id so how do I do that? If not, do I need to use an external plugin like Graeme Nattress GAddPulldownDown to do the pulldown and then convert the frame size with compressor? Any other suggestions? Then do I bring that converted video file back into a FCP DV NTSC timeline and print to tape?
    I am not familiar with handling progressive footage and 24fps footage so any advice is much appreciated- I just want to make sure I do it right and it looks the best it can.
    Thanks

    Where in Montana? I lived half my life in Missoula, and went to college in Bozeman.
    You gotta talk to the channel as to what they will take. SD 29.97 NTSC doesn't say much at all. BetaSP, Digibeta, DV, DVCPRO 50, 3/4" Umatic, MII (they had MII at the PBS station in Bozeman...ugh). Don't figure on anything...ask them. Just because it is Montana doesn't mean it is completely backwards. I have no doubt they have beta and digibeta tapes. But, being as low cost as the TV stations must be, I'll wager that DV and DVCAM are more the norm.
    If you have a DVCPRO HD deck and you are ouputting DVCPRO HD, ONLY THOSE DECKS will remove the pulldown. And an HVX-200 isn't a DVCPRO HD tape mechanism, that is DV. You cannot downconvert from DVCPRO HD to DV via firewire, much less remove the pulldown, and just dropping a DVCPRO HD 23.98 clip into a DV timeline and rendering won't do it either. FCP is horrid at removing the pulldown. Find a deck and export, or export a self contained file and take it to someone with a Kona or Decklink card.
    Man, the faculty at MSU have approached me with the idea of teaching as an adjunct for a year. That is heavy on my mind...

  • G60-230US Laptop - HDMI cable does not provide sound output only video

    HDMI cable does not provide sound output only video. I have the following device adapter - Mobile Intel(R) 4 Series Express Chip Set Family, and two sound, video, game controllers - Coexant High Definition  Smartadudio 221 and Intel (R) HIgh Definition Audio HDMI.  I do not see any option but "Speakers" on the Sound "playback" tab.  Not sure what to do to fix

    With the cable connected to source, click to select/highlight the Intel HDMI. next click the 'Set default' button.

  • Need to Output 24P Video

    I am outputting a video that I cut in 24P and I want to open it up on to a new time line. I want the most uncompressed way of exporting and space is not an issue. Should I go with 8bit or 10bit uncompressed?
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated!!!
    Thanks

    If you export an uncompressed file, you need to create a sequence that matches those settings. Choose an EASY SETUP that matches, then create a new sequence.
    But, again, we are ALL asking you, why are you doing this? I fail to see how exporting an uncompressed QT will help with soundtrack. Even exporting a self contained QT Movie (what you SHOULD be doing if you want a QT with no further compression)....why? All that will do is make your audio into a Stereo pair, and negate any sound mixing you can do in Soundtrack.
    Why do you assume that it is the fact that your footage is scattered on several drives is what is causing Soundtrack to crash? That doesn't sound right. Scattered media doesn't cause applications to crash...other things do, like corrupt preferences or bad permissions. If I were you, I'd pose this question in the SOUNDTRACK forum and ask for assistance.

  • Does the RCA OUTPUT ON THE cdx-gt56ui run both sub and preout? if so how do I switch it to PRE-OUT

    Does the RCA OUTPUT on the CDX-GT56UI Car Stereo have both Sub and PRE-OUT? if so how do I switch to PRE-OUT?

    Hello Richard,
    The unit has 2-channel Preamp Outputs  on the rear of the receiver, used for connecting external amps. This unit doesn't have Sub Preamp Outputs.
    The rear preamp outputs can be set in the menu to output a full range signal to the rear channels, or a filtered signal to a subwoofer. When set to subwoofer, the output typically has a selectable low-pass filter and is non-fading. You can change the rear preamp outputs by selecting REAR/SUB option under Setup menu of the unit.
    If my post answers your question, please mark it as "Accepted Solution".
    Thank you for your post.

  • Outputting DVD video to TV monitor

    Hi,
    I'm wondering if there is a way to output DVD video from my Mac Mini through firewire, using my DV camcorder as a pass through to a VCR/TV. I can't seem to get it to work, and seem to think that the problem lies either in the encoding of DVD video or copyright protection, since I haven't been able to do it successfully.
    Thanks,
    Andy Golebiowski

    No, it has to do with the capabilities of the system. There is no way that I am aware of (and some pretty thorough google searching has revealed nothing) to cause DVD footage to play out through a firewire port.
    Has anyone else heard of a way of being able to do this?
    If you "rip" your DVD video to a Quicktime format that can be brought into iMovie or Final Cut, you would be able to stream the video back out to the firewire. But using a non-linear editor as a playback mechanism is a bit weird.

  • Does Front Panel Audio Work When Using RCA Outputs from the X-Fi Titanium HD PCIe Sound Card?

    I see that the rear panel headphone output is disabled when the soundcard RCA jacks are used.
    But is it possible to have the front panel audio output work at the same time that the RCA jacks are in use or is it also disabled?
    I am willing to tolerate inferior quality audio feeding my monitor and use the RCA jacks for my headphone amp.

    I was able to construct a work around for this problem. A Y splitter from the RCA outputs is an option but can degrade the sound because of the uneven load presented to the soundcard.
    Ten eleven inch Apevia CVTAUDIOE25 HD Audio extension cables were connected together in series to a SilverStone FP32 3.5 audio front panel bay. The extension cables were connected to the front panel audio connectors on the Titanium HD sound card and then the cables were run out of the computer case and up to the area near my keyboard. I connected the front panel audio bay to the extension cable and the bay sits next to the keyboard. When no 3.5 mm stereo cable is connected to the front bay near the keyboard the sound is normal out of the rear outputs. But when a 3.5 mm audio cable is plugged into the front panel bay audio there is sound out of the SilverStone front panel bay. The sound is still muted out of the rear RCA jacks when the plug is put in the front bay but it is only used when the main audio outputs are not required.
    The function for me is that the front bay serves the same purpose that the previous front panel 3.5 mm audio extension cable did.
    There are photos of this under a different user name on Audio Asylum PC Audio.

  • DVI to Video Adapter: Using S-video vs. RCA output to TV

    I just purchased a DVI to Video Adapter for my MacBook Pro 15". I'd like to display iPhoto slide shows on my TV. Will there be a difference in picture quality on the TV if I output from the Mac (thru the DVI to Video Adapter) using an RCA cable versus an S-video cable?

    S-Video is the better of the two interfaces. Neither is very good when compared with a computer screen, which will have much higher resolution. I doubt you will notice much difference between S-Video and RCA Video but if you have the choice you might as well go S-Video.

  • How can I do live streaming with a Mac Book Pro 2011, using a new model of Sony HD camcorder which does not have firewire out/input? it comes only with a component video output, USB, HDMI and composite RCA output?

    I need to do live streaming with a Mac Book Pro 2011, using a new model of Sony HD camcorder (http://store.sony.co...ber=HDRAX2000/H) ..this camcorder model does not have firewire out/input ..it comes only with a component video output, USB, HDMI and composite A/V video output..
    I wonder how can I plug this camcorder to the firewire port of my laptop? Browsing on internet I found that Grass Valley Company produces this converter http://www.amazon.co...=A17MC6HOH9AVE6 ..but I am not sure -not even after checking the amazon reviews- if this device will send the video signal through firewire to my laptop, in order to live streaming properly? ..anyone in this forum could help me please?
    Thanx

    I can't broadcast with the built in iSight webcam... how would I zoom in or zoom out? or how would I pan? I've seem people doing it walking with their laptops but that's not an option for me... there's nothing wrong with my USB ports but that's neither an option to stream video because as far as I know through USB you can't connect video in apple operating systems ..you can for sure plug any video cam or photo camera through usb but as a drive to transfer data not as a live video camera...  is by firewire an old interface developed by apple that you can connect all sorts of cameras to apple computers... unfortunately my new sony HDR-AX2000 camcorder doesn't have firewire output...
    thanx

    Thanks for the responce. I did not even think about that. So do think that it would be better for me to get the ATI 9200 video card that has a s-video plug built into it. Bellow is the link to it here on the Apple site. Thanks again and any help will be great.
