No video out on TV using Satellite A50-542

I am not able to get an output from the video out jack on my Satellite A50-542 laptop.
I have connected the laptop to my TV via a s video cable and an oudio cable via the headphone jack.
Sound is fine but no video.
Tried connecting from s video jack to scart input still no joy.
Can anyone help

my problem has been solved, Fn +F5 and select the output option required, good picture and good sound.

I want to play video on my computer to make some analysis to frames,the problem that I face ,I can't change video frame rate using labview,but I can change frame rate to the video out of labview using some program

HI All
I want to play video on my computer to make some analysis to it's frames,the problem that I face ,I can't change video frame rate using labview,but I can change frame rate to the video out of labview using some program .
I used IMAQ AVI Read Frame VI
for example I have avi video It's frame rate is 25 fbs ,my image processing code is very fast that can process more 25 fbs,so I want to accelerate video acquisition

Hi abdelhady,
I looked into this further, and reading an AVI file into LabVIEW faster than its frames per second won't be possible. LabVIEW could read in frames faster than 25fps, but because it will be pulling the available frame at that point in time this would just give you duplicate frames. If you want to be able to read in frames at faster than 25fps, you would need to speed up your AVI file before reading into LabVIEW.
There's a good shipping example to show how to read in from an AVI file, "Read AVI File.vi". You'll notice that they add timing to make sure that the while loop runs at the right speed to match up with the frames per second of the file being read. This is to make sure you're not reading duplicate frames.
Thank you,

MBP video out to TV using DVI - both analog and digital?

I have a Macbook Pro 10.6.4 2008 Model with details are below on graphics card and display options. I am trying two hookups to televisions which may or may not be possible. Can anyone tell me if my DVI output on the macbook pro is capable of delivering an analog signal to my old sony tube tv with component inputs? Second part of my question is do I have the right dvi cable. I purchased a cable with 24 + 5 pin. This cable does not produce a picture on my analog or digital television. Just snow on the analog and no input on the digital. The cable that came with my macbook pro is a DVI to VGA converter and seems to be an 18 + 5 pin plug....with a few pins missing in the middle. Should I buy another cable with the 18 + 5 pin DVI to component or buy a cable to connect the supplied DVI to VGA converter - VGA to component. Please help I'm confused on many fronts.
Thanks
Frank

I made an account and am replying to this because i have the exact same computer as you and i was also at best buy at around 3pm wondering the exact same things you were! The DVI port on our MacBooks are different than the standard DVI ports. Freaking weiiiiiiiiiiiiiird! Get out of my head!!!!
I ended up buying a VGA cable and using the converter that came with my MBP because the DVI to VGA cables at Best Buy had a different VGA than what the MBP has.
Our goals were slightly different though, I wanted a cable so i can connect the MBP to my Toshiba 42inch HDTV. VGA works but doesnt support 1080p, only 1024x768, which is not a fullscreen resolution. So i will be returning the VGA cable tomorrow and looking for a VGA to HDMI cable, if that exist.
So, to answer your question, YES, buy a cable that has the same ports as our adapter, or just use the adapter that came with the Macbook.

Need cooling fan for Satellite A50-542

Hi,
I have a SA50-542 and the cooling fan has packed in.
Any guidance as to where I might be able to get another one?
many thanks dan

Hello Dan
What to say? Either you can contact authorized service provider in your country and try to order one there or you can google around and search if any online shop offer notebook parts.
I do not see any other way to find this hardware component.
Oh yes. You can also check eBay. There you can find many hardware components for different Toshiba notebooks especially for older notebook models.

Satellite 1800-100: video-out does not work

He,
I just installed windows XP on my old Satellite 1800-100, but now my video-out does not work anymore. So I just downloaded the latest driver, but there's no way I can get it installed. According to Windows the new driver isn't newer, so it won't let me update it. And when i try to unistall the display driver, I have to reboot before it takes effect, and wile rebooting it automaticly installs the standard driver again.
Can anybody help me?
Greets,
Daan

Hi
Do you mean TV- out port or monitor port? As far as I know this unit is preinstalled with WXP Home and all drivers can be also used for WXP Pro.
Did you preinstall your own OS (non recovery image)?

Satellite laptop: connecting video out to projector causes hum in (headset) audio output

Our church connects video output from the laptop to a projection system and audio out (via headset jack) to a sound board mono channel (line in). Stereo to mono adapter. We get a significant hum in the audio whenever the video cable is plugged in. Doesn't matter whether the attached projection equipment is on or off, it's all about plugging the video cable into the laptop. Unplug the video cable and the hum disappears. Obviously we have tried all sorts of things to isolate the problem but it all comes back to plugging in that video cable. We made sure there were no nearby power supplies or other equipment that might throw out interference. Has anyone ever encountered this problem and have any suggestions? Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

Using a Satellite PSBY1U laptop. Video out is not HDMI but the other (VGA?) connector. We are connecting audio out from the headset jack direct to a mixer channel. No microphone is connected to the laptop. We looked at every sound and video-related menu we could find and could not see any settings that would seem to be relevant to the problem (we changed lots of settings anyway and nothing helped). Naturally we played with audio volumes, different auto cables, etc. Bottom line is we get clean audio until we plug the video cable into the laptop, then we get a very prominent hum from the audio output. Video cable goes straight to a projector, doesn't matter whether the projector is turned on or off. The audio and video cables are never closer than four inches from each other. It's weird.

You can't do this yourself; if desired, you can ask the iTunes Store staff if they'll do it, but they probably won't.

I can't seem to get my iPod touch (4th Gen) to play photo slideshows or videos through my TV. Is this a design flaw? Or is it me? My old iPod used to do it no problem, but now I can't even find any video out options in the settings.

My samsung says video out from i pad is not supported. i am connecting with apple dock using hdmi. I do get the audio

my samsung says video out from i pad is not supported. i am connecting with apple dock using hdmi. I do get the audio any suggestions?

Jeffrey-
If the HDMI input to the Samsung is not compatible, does it have a VGA or composite input? I have both the HDMI and VGA adapters for the iPad, which work with the small Vizio HDTV I tried. I understand a composite video adapter is also available.

No Audio When using Video Out to Firewire

I do not get any audio when I use Firewire ntsc as my video out. When I set video out to canvas playback then I get audio. I want to use print to video but I cannot because the audio will not work with Firewire. I get the image on my external monitor but not the audio. I checked to make sure and the audio was not on the recorded dvd. I cannot not use print to video with canvas playback.
My Easy Setup is Format: NTSC, Use DV NTSC DV Converter. I tried using Firewire basic and got the same results.
Please Help
Ken

The audio does not play at all from the timeline if video out is set to Firewire. To answer your question, no the audio does not play in the external monitor when playing back from the timeline when Canvas is used as the video out. However, I don't believe the converter box is the problem. The audio would play in the internal speakers when using firewire as video out but it does not.
Is there a problem with FCE 4?

Using Video Out Distorts Desktop Icons

When I use my video out, the icons on my desktop get moved around. I understand why this happens when the resolution changes to send video out, but why don't the icons restore back to their original locations once I disconnect the video out? Is there a way to prevent the icons moving or to get the computer to restore them automatically? It's such a pain that I avoid using video out even though I could get a lot of use out of it. Any suggestions short of removing all the icons from my desktop? Thanks.

After using IMAQ RT Video Out, how do I go back to the rt debug string output?

After using the IMAQ RT Video Out VI, the screen the image as expected. I want to then go back to the console screen where I can see the RT Debug strings and CPU usage. Is this possible?

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Sneaky I looked at that VI and didn't notice that option. Worked like a charm.

I am making a graduation video for my cousin using Final Cut Pro. I have photos layered over videos, and I was wanted to find out how you can add a border around the photos so they stand off of the video. Anyone know what I could do?

You would need an image editor to edit the images and add a border to the image first before importing them into Final Cut.
Cheapest and very good image editor?
