Nano video output via headphone socket?

Can the new Nano video output to the TV via the headphone socket, like my iPod Video 80g?
Thanks.

Trip to Apple store and Genius Bar (Genius my a**e!), where I had a 2 hour wait, 20 minutes with the Genius (I use the term lightly) to be told what I already knew, plus he thinks the headphone output is connec ted to main logic board and that will cost almost £300 for parts. Dream-on!
On the way home I purchased a £8 Toslink cable (£32 in Apple store) plugged it in and hey presto - perfect sound.
So it looks like the headphone socket is stuck in digital mode.
Well at least it's getting better. Now off to research & establish how many other folks report same issue.

  • Video output via cable - incompatible with video p...

    I find that although video output via cable from the Nokia 6220 classic (and I presume other Nokia phones) works fine with TV sets, I haven't found a single video projector that accepts the output and is able to project it.  The projectors typically search their video inputs and should recognise the composite video input, but instead they just keep searching and are never able to recognise or project the video.
    Is there something unusual about the video signal output from it so as not to be accepted as composite video by video projectors?

    iphone4 and composite and component cable don't support mirror so they
    only display images when an supported app is being used like youtube or the video app and the likes
    use both the composite and the component cable with my iphone4 on 5.1 and both works fine
    so do my ipod touch with 5.1 and ipad2 with 5.1

  • Static when connecting to hifi via headphone socket.

    When I connect my Macbook Pro to a hifi with a phono to 3.5 cable via the headphone socket, I get a horrible hissing.
    This only happens when my Macbook is plugged in, and it is even louder than the sounds it should be producing. Like if I'm playing a song in iTunes at full volume, and then connect it to the hifi, the hissing would be several times louder than the music playing.
    It doesn't happen when I unplug the power adaptor.
    I have tried it with numerous 3.5-phono cables with the same outcome, and I've used various other sources instead of the macbook such as iPod/cd players and they all play fine.
    Anyone know what can be done about this?
    I have PC speakers which work fine with it.
    Also recently my headphone socket seems a lot more...delicate (I haven't slept in a while and can't think of the word - sorry).
    Basically when I first got my mbp it was fine, but now if whatever is being plugged into the socket is nudged slightly, it will cut out temporarily. This happens regardless of what is being plugged in.
    Thanks

    I also have a macbook pro and an Apple Hi Fi. For one thing, you have to baby the Hi Fi, they can be pretty finicky and delicate and it doesn't take much for them to malfunction which I believe is part of the reason that Apple discontinued them. I also use a 3.5mm jack- 3.5mm jack to connect my macbook pro to my hifi and have no issues. Now what it sounds like is going on is that the issue is on the Macbook Pro side of things. How old is your MBP? Is there any light emitting from the audio jack on the laptop, as that can be an indicator of trouble. I get that hissing sound too so I'm pretty sure I know what yours is caused by. Basically, when a 3.5mm audio cord is plugged into the Hi Fi on one end but not properly into something at the other end, and the unplugged (or partially plugged) cord touches something else conductive/metal it will hiss really loudly. This should only occur when the Hi Fi's volume is turned up. Have you checked any other devices (output) like another speaker if possible to see if your mac's audio out port (the one with the headphone icon on it) is broken or malfunctioning. I am using a Belkin 3.5mm-3.5mm audio cord and it works well. So I'm guessing the issue is your audio-out but if all else fails it is possible to connect a macbook pro to a Hi Fi with a Toslink fiber optic cord. I don't know why this would fix the problem but if you truly have no issues with any other input to the hi fi and you have tried multiple audio cords (when audio cords get worn in my experience they will cause problems too, but that problem would likely present as getting single-channel audio interference (which would sound like listening to an ipod with headphone) then maybe a digital audio cord is the way to go. On top of that, a digital audio cord would dramatically improve the volume and sound quality (its roughly the difference in sound between listening to music on a docked ipod vs. plugging an ipod in via the audio out auxiliary jack). But, I would say your likeliest problem is the connection between the audio cord and the audio out port on the macbook pro. Hope this all helps!

  • No audio via headphone socket - Mac Mini

    2010 Mac Mini 10.6.8
    No output via the headphone jack. Audio is working OK via internal speaker / HDMI / Bluetooth / Airplay.
    There is a signal going through the socket and cable as noise can be heard (squeal, squeaks, etc, but not a distinguishable output)
    1) Disconnected all USB's etc
    2) Rebooted with different cables for audio and HDMI
    3) Reset PRAM
    4) Apple Hardware Test - all OK
    5) Tech Tool Test - all OK
    6) Checked all setting in Audio Midi/sound preferences
    Any ideas? - Thanks

  • Video output via FW deck

    Running on MBP in the field, can I monitor Color video out via FW connected to DVCPro deck then out to NTSC monitor? FCP outputs fine. In Color the video output selection is greyed out... jPo? Shane?
    Thanks

    Thanks.
    That's too bad, it'd be nice to show some options on set with a basic FW interface... wouldn't wanna schlep all that gear around...

  • Surround Sound Via Headphone Sockets With ALSA and/or OSS?

    I have a surround sound system that uses the green and black 2.5 milimeter jacks for surround sound.  Is it possible to configure ALSA, so that the headphone socket on my laptop produces the front (green) output, and the external microphone socket produces the rear (black) output?  Also, is this possible with OSS?

    Possible in Alsa, yes. Quite a bit of modification of your .asoundrc. Check this out.

  • Video Output via VGA "not authorized"

    I have the VGA output cable for my iPad, but on my newer videos, it gives me an error message that the display is not authorized to view the content. Do you perhaps know how to authorize a display?

    Rental movies and maybe some other purchased videos will not display on video out because of licensing reasons. There is really nothing you can do.

  • Video output via composite cable & video output on iPad screen

    Is it possible to have the video play on the iPad simultaneously as it outputs to composite cable? Whenever I play a video with the composite cable plugged in, the iPad displays a screen shot of a random video (same screen shot every single time). It's a complete mystery to me. Any ideas?

    It sounds normal to me. The composite and AVGA out on the iPad do not mirror the the iPad's display as you found out. However, there may be some apps that will show video on both screens.

  • No video output via hdmi

    I have a brand new Apple Mac Mini that was just delivered via Fed Ex a couple of hours ago.
    I CANNOT get video to display over HDMI on my 50" plasma. When I comnect it and boot all I see is "no video input."
    I have a newer, smaller Sharp plasma that will show the Apple start-up/splash screen for 15-20 seconds then the screen goes black.
    I think the resolution in the settings is too high for my mini but how do I change if I cant see the **** screen?
    I believe both of these TV's max out at 720p.
    PS. AppleCare Support wants to send me another computer but I can guarantee it isnt a hardware failure.
    Any thoughts?

    Well, BSteely, where to begin? After my extensive discussions with more than one support engineer at Apple in Toronto as well as in Austin an interesting picture is emerging. Seems that I'd omitted a few things: First, I was not trying to display HD content but rather standard definition content. Second, I made the mistake hoping for an elegant and easy solution in hookup via HDMI (new flatscreens don't even have a DVI port anymore) - bad mistake! As one of the technicians put it, HDMI is an "unsettled" platform when it comes to HDCP, currently in version 1.4 , meaning, I should have tried VGA instead, a "settled" platform after all. Now, whether this will work remains to be seen because I don't have a micro DVI to VGA adapter yet but suffice to say that in essence I've been getting the message from Apple that, yes, the MacBook Air will - in the near future - support HDCP, but for now it does not contain the necessary software simply because HDMI is in its forth incarnation; plus, as they put it, Apple can't be responsible for testing compatibility with every single HD television set on the market - while it is true that there are thousands in existence, at the same time there are only four versions of HDMI with different HDCP specs! So, while I may be partially answering my own query here, it seems that Apple at this point is not particularly eager to make this software available because they rather would like to sell their new displays with the micro DVI ports instead of us endusers being able to hook the computer video signal up to just ANY monitor or TV. In the end, it is my hope that they will reconsider and not forget who their customers are, maybe after the Christmas season....

  • Can I get HD Quicktime video output via Windows 7

    How can I put this.  I have a fellow employee to states that it is impossible to produce HD quality QuickTime via via Windows 7.  Is this an accurate statement?

    Not true.
    If your source files are in high definition format you can edit and export via QuickTime Player Pro.

  • What settings need to be adjusted to send out Dolby digital ,DTS from inputs such as Netflix to the video output via an adaptor to HDMI?

    Hi. I can only stream picture and PCM out of my Mac BookPro. What settings need to be adjusted to output Dolby Digital or DTS to an HDMI adaptor had thence onto my AV Processor?

    The Audio Midi Setup utility may need to have its settings updated.
    That's if you have the right adapter:

  • Mac Mini with no monitor controlled via VNC - video output corrupt

    Hi,
    I have a Mini running with no monitor, mouse or keyboard connected (it's used as a Server for my music library) that I control via VNC on my Mac Book.
    Everything works fine until I ever have to reboot the Mini. After the reboot, logging into the machine via VNC shows all the video corrupt (jagged horizontal lines through the whole display making it totally undreadable).
    This happens both with ARD and Chicken of the VNC (tried both in case it was an issue with the VNC software).
    To fix it I have to connect a monitor to the Mini. Then I can just unplug the monitor again and the video output via VNC is fixed.
    Anyone have any ideas? It's driving me nuts
    Thanks,
    Neil

    After some more searching I stumbled across this thread on another forum;
    http://www.macusenet.com/archive/index-t-75211.html
    It seems that the problem can be avoided by connecting the DVI-S-Video adapter that ships with the Mini.

  • Video Output for Musical on new Macbook Air

    Doing first production of a musical.
    I'm thinking of buying Logic Pro 9 to control the output of recorded audio and video for the show (as well as to compose a few extra pieces).
    The features page on the Apple site says: Logic can let you view synchronized QuickTime movies on a separate monitor using output options like Digital Cinema Desktop.
    http://www.apple.com/logicpro/top-features/
    The Tech Specs page on the Apple site says: External video output via FireWire or DVCPRO HD.
    http://www.apple.com/se/logicpro/specs/
    I've bought a brand spanking new Macbook Air which has a Thunderbolt and two USB ports. 
    Would I be able to use Logic on my Macbook Air to output my video?  (I was thinking I would do it to a projector either through WiFi or a (yellow) composite cable.)
    (The alternative I was thinking of was to use MuseScore to enter the notation for the extra pieces.  Garageband for the audio output (it's missing a few instruments [e.g. clarinet, xylophone]) and plain old Quicktime for the video output.
    Thanks!
