No movies via S-video

On a T-40, I just tried to play a DVD movie onto a TV via the S-video port.  I can get the TV to display the T-40 screen (when set to 640x480, 16 bit), but when a movie plays on the T-40, the movie "screen" blacks out on the TV, regardless of whether the movie is full screen or sub-screen.  Any reason or cure?

Hi mate,
Have you tested another cable? Maybe the cable doesnt work properly anymore.
Check this!!!
Furthermore if you use the S-Video port you must choose between PAL or NTSC mode. Its depending on the country where you life or where you purchased your TV. You can change this in graphic properties.

    Topic: Microsoft's Silverlight for Mac. I wanted to video stream a movie via Verizon FIOS. It demanded Silverlight.dmg.  Macbok Pro refused to download from 3rd party supplier (CNET). How can I get this from Apple?  The Verizon FIOS video website was churning on the error message, "Checking device registration status."  It got stuck in a loop. Verizon tech support never came on. Was on terminal "Hold."  Any recommendations?

    Never download anything from CNET. The site is untrustworthy and is known to distribute Windows spyware intentionally.

  • Create a DVD (Movie) From a Video Received via Email (???)

    Someone is sending me a video of a family event via email; not yet sure what format it will be (.mov or whatever) and it's coming via a Windows computer. Assuming that the movie will play when the email arrives, how can I burn the movie to a DVD so I can play it back on a TV later on?
    I suppose I'd drag it to my desktop, but from there I'm not at all sure how to burn it to a DVD so it will play as a movie on my TV's DVD player.
    What app(s) do I use (?), and can someone provide some "See Spot run" instructions, as DVD burning is not my forte'.
    Thanks in advance!

    +Why burn with Titanium (which I don't have) if I can burn with either iMovie or iDVD (depending on if I want to snazz it up)?+
    Well, Toast has a few other things included which may come in handy and I've just gotten used to using it, but there is no need for it, especially for basic burning. So, yes, you can use iMovie or iDVD.
    +As an alternative, can I go to iDVD>File>OneStep DVD From Movie (which I would have dragged to the desktop from the email)and do it that way?+
    One-Step DVD is to transfer video directly from a camcorder to burn to a DVD (check iDVD help). I've never used that feature because I tend to do a lot of "snazzing" including customizing the themes, creating intros with several layers of video and live fonts, etc. But there is another possibility: Magic iDVD: "lets you create professional quality DVD with minimal effort" - again, check iDVD help; there are step by step instructions. I haven't used that feature either.
    You might want to consider checking out the appropriate forums for both iMovie and iDVD for tips and/or questions - some very knowledgeable people hang out there. You'll find that with a little effort, you can create some really cool movies. And remember that both iMovie and iDVD only accept certain formats, so if you get an error or it won't let you drag it, run it through MPEG Streamclip first.
    Edit: As an afterthought, I'm wondering if you will actually be able to get that movie via email - most ISP's impose limits on file size.

  • Cannot play purchased movies or music videos on ATV3 via AirPlay

    Music, photos, and mirroring work fine.  When I try to play purchased movies and music videos from iTunes, I get "Operation could not be completed -3".  Everything is updated to the latest iOS.  The router is a Belkin N450DB wireless on factory settings.  This location also does not have internet, just the home wi-fi network.  I have even plugged the ATV into the router via ethernet and still no video.  I have tried and gotten the same results with iPhone 4s, iPad 3, PC laptop with iTunes with same Apple ID as ATV. 
    If it makes a difference, I setup, updated, and added my Apple ID to the ATV from a different location with internet, but moved it after I thought it had been set up.  Thanks in advance for any tips, I am clueless!!

  • HT4053 how do i move files from videos to photos si i can send them via whatsapp etc

    how do i move files from videos to photos si i can send them via whatsapp etc

    What is it then? How and what exactly do i use it for? My i pad says there is not enough storage available so i have purchased more in i cloud. I now want to save some TV programmes and films to i cloud to free up some space but don't know how to... When you are told there is not enough space to download you are prompted to go to settings and to purchase more storage - so it is not unreasonable to assume that this will solve the problem - or am I missing something here? Or is this just a way for apple to get money out of me?
    If this is not what it is meant for then what is it meant for? Is it just space to back up files to? If so then surely what i need is stored there - so i can delete the TV programmes from my i pad and grab them from i cloud later?
    Am rather perplexed...

  • Playing movies in iTunes on Television via S-Video

    OK, I can easily connect my non-HD, non-DVI television to my PowerBook G4 via S-Video. BUT -- is there any way to get iTunes to display video on a SPECIFIC monitor?
    I saw prefs for "separate window" and "full screen" et al but not any method of having the window open and display on the television.
    Yeah, I know I can "drag" the window there -- which is kind of hackish. Seems like there must be a more elegant solution?

    Deauthorize iTunes then Authorize iTunes.
    I am using itunes version 8.0.1.11 as I'm concerned about conflicts between itunes version 9 and classic.
    Works fine, lasts long time.

    Movies are not one of the items you can reload via iClould like apps, music, and some other items.  You can contact iTunes and request a redownload,.  They may give you one.

  • Can no longer play movies via home sharing on Apple TV 2

    I'm having trouble sharing movies via iTunes through home sharing.  Everything I have is Mac, a 2008 iMac, Airport Extreme, (2) Apple TV 2's, and a Macbook Pro.  Everything was fine with this entire setup with all of the movies I've ripped (using the Apple TV 2 settings in Handbrake) until Lion came out. Suddenly I got the 'Content cannot be displayed. Try again later' error message.  After much searching, I found that disabling IPv6 was a good solution, temporarily, that is until Apple released iOS 5.  I updated the ATV2's, iPhone, and iPad, and iMac with everything that came out during the update, and the issue came back.
    I've tried everything I can think of, changing router channels, disabling IPv6 everywhere I saw it, wireless, hardwired, reloading the library, disabling the firewall, countless restarts of all my equipement etc.  All of these movies worked perfectly before the updates, and suddenly I cant stream anything through my local MAC network. 
    Has anyone else seen this? Has anyone found any solutions for this problem? I could really use the help, Apple support is... limited. 

    Problem solved for me!  After trying every possible setting on my equipment, including changing firmware revs on my router, rebuilding my library, re-encoding certain movies, changing all my iTunes, Network, Security, Sharing, and WiFi settings, I finally figured it out. 
    It looks to be a bug with the new iOS release V4.4 - Assuming you have your movies encoded in 5.1AC3 surround, you have to go into the Audio & Video settings on your ATV2, go down to Dolby Digital, and change the setting from Auto to On.  For me at least, it was simple as that.  I've tried all the same movies I was trying to play before, only then I was getting 'An error occurred loading this content.'  After changing the setting from Auto to On, every single movie began working again, in full surround sound. To test it, I switched the setting back to Auto and the same problem came back.  I'm sure Apple will have a fix for this later, but for now, we can assume 'Auto' means 'You cant stream your movies.'
    I hope this helps!

  • When I stream a movie via Apple TV from my iPad Air into my Samsung TV, I'm getting the "soap opera" effect. This only happens when I use Apple TV, not when I view a movie directly through a cable channel. Is there a way to eliminate this effect?

    When I stream a movie via Apple TV from my iPad Air into my Samsung TV, I'm getting the "soap opera" effect. This only happens when I use Apple TV, not when I view a movie directly through a cable channel. Is there a way to eliminate this effect?

    I'm having the same problem.  It's not an issue with my TV, i've turned this feature off.  I've tried playing with the ATV display settings but nothing works.  When I stream netflix from my Samsung bluray player, I don't get the soap opera effect, but when I stream any video from the ATV, the soap opera effect is there.  I'm thinking it's a choice that Apple made, but I really wish it could be turned off.  Not a lot of people are searching for this, because it can be easy to overlook, but it's driving me nuts!

  • Can´t play AVI/MPEG via S-Video (FX-5700 Ultra3)

    Hi
    I have the following problem, when I use my TV via S-Video I can watch the desktop, and play games, but when I try to play any kind of AVI/MPEG file in the TV appears a black box (where the video is displayed, all the desktop looks fine, but the video playin window is black), I can play DVD fine, but the AVI/MPG dont appear in TV screen...
    any ideaS?????
    thanks

    You need to find the specs of the MPEG-4 videos to work out why.
    AppleTV 2 has limited format support as detailed here:
    H.264 video up to 720p, 30 frames per second, Main Profile level 3.1 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps per channel, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
    MPEG-4 video up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Simple Profile with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats
    Motion JPEG (M-JPEG) up to 35 Mbps, 1280 by 720 pixels, 30 frames per second, audio in ulaw, PCM stereo audio in .avi file format
    I would guess the MPEG-4 videos are higher resolution or worng profile.

  • I bought a movie via itunes but i cannot see it. why?

    I bought a movie via itunes but i cannot see it. why?

    When did you buy, and what did you buy it on (computer, iOS device), and by 'cannot see it' you mean ... ? If you've just bought it then it should have downloaded onto the device/computer that you bought it on - so into the Movies part of your iTunes library if using your computer, the Videos app if using an iOS device.
    If it's a film that you bought it in the past then you might not be able to redownload it if you've changed countries since buying it, the rights-holder doesn't allow redownloading, or if it's no longer in your country's store.

  • My movies and music videos won't show up on screen, I can hear the sound but not see the video how do I fix this?

    My movies and music videos won't show up on my computer screen, I can hear the sound but not see the video how do I fix this? I'm not sure what to do as far as turning my purchased movie into DVD goes either. I just want to put the movie onto a DVD disc but my itunes won't even show that I have a blank disc in the drive, I'm not sure what is wrong or how to fix this, any help at all would be much appreciated.

    Hi @anthony7722 ,
    Thank you for your query, I will do my best to help!
    I grasp that you uninstalled the Intel graphic driver and the catalyst control.  You reinstalled the Intel driver and now you can view and hear videos on the Internet but you are unable to set the resolution as high as previously.
    When I checked the specifications for your notebook I see that you have switchable graphics.
    Here are two links that I believe will help.
    Overview of Switchable Graphics or Dual GPUs
    Switchable Graphics on Notebooks Configured with Intel and ATI GPUs
    Here is a link to HP Pavilion dv7-6150eb Entertainment Notebook PC Drivers
    Please try this process.
    1. Download the chipset driver, and both graphic drivers and save them  but do not install them yet
    2, Delete the chipset driver and install the updated one.
    3. restart your notebook
    4.Delete the Intel driver and install the updated one
    5. restart your notebook
    6. Delete the AMD driver and install the updated driver. 
    You should now have a Catalyst Control Center.
    This should now allow you to use the higher graphic card which should support the higher resolution.
    I hope this helped.

  • I rented a movie via Itunes on  my PC but half-way through the download recieved a "An unknown error has occured (-50)" notification. This is not my first rental, and I have verified my network and all connections to be good. Will I still be charged?

    I rented a movie via Itunes on  my PC but half-way through the download recieved a "An unknown error has occured (-50)" notification. This is not my first rental, and I have verified my network and all connections to be good. I have rebooted Itunes and resumed the download of the movie only to receive the same error code. Has the movie file been corrupted? Can I recover the rental even though the time has elapsed? Will I be charged?

    Did you figure this out?  I haven't rented a movie in this new iTunes yet and saw one tonight I wanted to rent.  Same fricken thing is happening to me.  I hate this new iTunes, and I really hate that there are problems like this....why the heck do they have to fix something that isn't broken and break it?  This just really stinks.

  • How do I search for movies in the videos app

    We just got an iPad 2 and I can't see how to search for a movie in the videos app.
    We do not have any movies on the iPad, but wIth home sharing running I can see our extensive movie library. However the only navigation is swiping up and down through a list of cover art. With 400+ movies in iTunes it can take a while to scroll down to Zombieland or Zulu... Spotlight doesn't search the home sharing stuff.
    I don't even see movie names in text under the cover art, or the normal quick scroll letter down e side of the page like you see in other iOS apps. It just seems very un-Apple and un-iOS.
    I feel like I am missing something, some setting to make the movies interface more user friendly.
    I'd appreciate any help or advice here
    - Rick

    I don't see any way either, but it is a Version 1.0 of Home Sharing.
    Tell Apple you want a search capability here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html

  • TS2972 I installed ios 7 today on my devices.  Not all my devices are letting me view my purchaced movies under the videos icon. All are under the same apple ID.

    Installed ios 7 on my iphone 5, my ipad 2, and my daughters iphone 4.  Home sharing and icloud are turned on on all devices but the only one that is allowing me to see all of my purchases in the cloud is my iphone 5.  It shows all my movies under the videos icon.  My other devices say No Content when I open the video icon. Any one else having these issues.

    This happened to me as well.  All of our purchased(icloud) content shows up on my husbands iPhone 5 and he can stream it wihtout any problems, but not on my iPhone 4s.  When first I installed it yesterday some of them showed up but it was missing most of our purchased content on my phone. I decided maybe it was a glitch that happened while updating so I did a soft reset holding my home and power button down.  That did not fix it so I restored my phone from the computer hoping that reinstalling the software would fix it.  When it was done I went in and there is no content now.  Before I atleast had partial content now there is nothing.  If I go to the itunes store it shows that I own them and if I click on a movie or tv episode the picture shows up in the left hand corner with a play icon on it but it will only let me play 1 episode  and none of the others work.  I am so frustrated!  I hope someone figures this out:)
