NX8500GT S-Video Composite out

I am trying to use the composite out adapter off the s-video port on my NX8500GT Should I get video right from startup before I get into windows? or does it only function when I am in windows? I don't get a picture ever, not even a flicker no matter what drivers I use or if I am in or out of windows, nothing from my composite I tried forced tv out and everything. Is this right, or Do you think my card is damaged? Thanks for any help. I have none to compare it to...

Dear Popster41,
I found myself in the same situation you were when you posted this. Could you tell me where you found the converter you mentioned?
I appreciate your help,
Erwin

What is required to use the video composite out on the iPhone 4 The left and right audio works ok

Please not that the iPhone uses mono channel for internal speakers, the other path that you see is not the speaker per say. It is the phone microphone. Try using headphones, you will hear both channels. If the problem still persists when using headphones, check your sound balancing in the settings. Go to setting-general-accessibility scroll down and check the slide under mono audio. It should be put at the centre for you to hear both channels ON YOUR HEADPHONES

Iphone setting for video composite out

How can I set my Iphone in order to see composite video out; for beamer or for LCD TV

composite and component don't support mirror so they will only display output when the app being used support it
got both a composite and component cable for my ios6 iphone4 and they work great

Which video composite out do you recommend?

I have a G5 and I need a simple video out to a TV or video monitor as I design and animate in Motion to make sure I don't have flicker or color issues.
I don't need analog capture abilities or anything like that - just a simple video out.
Anyone have product suggestions?
Thank you!
Scot

yeah, Run it through your deck. or if you dont have one ... go to your local circuit city and buy a 200.00 mini dv cam w/ firewire out and run that to your Monitor. ERasy stuff.
Actually I started using an old JVC mini cam to save hours on my deck.

How to get plain old S-video and Composite out from a MBP?

Hi,
this question is about someone's MacBook Pro he newly bought with adapters to get both DVI and Svideo/Composite Out.
He got Mini DisplayPort to DVI-D converter, and a DVI-I to video converter, that cannot be plugged into a DVI-D port. Apple removed the analog capability of its adapter, that's bad. But what's badder is there doesn't seem to have any Mini DisplayPort to Svideo/Composite adapter, as there was with previous generation machines.
How can someone easily output analog video from MBP?

In fact, I recognize that these standards are old, which doesn't mean they're not up-to-date. Similar example, VGA connector is old, but perfectly useful, even in 2009. I recently plugged a 22" LCD with VGA and DVI on the same computer (a bland desktop PC), and there was strictly no difference. Same color depth, same crisp display. Even looking at a corner with a magnifier, nothing was different.
So, changing standards just for the sake of it doesn't make any sense.
Agreed that, as a pro, Apple would like me to buy their pro line, but nowhere in the pro line does an easy solution exists for S-Video and composite out. The solution you posted exists, but is unwieldly and not neat at all, if it doesn't break the Mac's connector under its weight. If a manufacturer can do this kind of adapter, Apple can do it better, and make a bigger profit out of it.
For the adapter you posted, I don't ever buy anything that is not at least Mac+Windows compatible, or at a minimum is open-source, so anyone with programming skills can make something. The manufacturer also doesn't give a clue on how this works. I guess some sort of virtual driver sits in the system as a virtual IEEE1394 port so any program requiring FW can work transparently. Still, incompatible with the OS that most manufacturer ship their new PCs with, poor commercial decision, wether you like the OS or not.
Adding FW in the MB unibody design wouldn't have cost anout $30. Rather, we're talking about a 25 cents chip, a 25 cents connector, which they would have rounded up to $20 and still, that was present in previous-gen MB. After all, they are indeed selling a matte screen on the MBP 17" for $50 more, despite them removing a single piece of glass which may cost, well, let's be fair, $5 to manufacture? That's dishonest. And capitalistically justified.
So far, choosing a Mac for one's needs is no easy task: older white MacBooks have the same power as unibodies, excellent connectivity, top notch transfer speeds, BUT are heavier, as not as ecologically friendly nor do they have future-proof RAM standard. The unibodies are sleekier, easily recycled and will be able to be upgraded in the near future BUT is most likely unable to use current devices and have slower transfer speeds.
For Pro models, the newer ones have great efficiency, much power and flexibility with their dual GPU BUT lost the option of matte screen, although their other pro-oriented monitors still default to matte. Only the 17" has the option. If a pro already finds his 15,4" bulky and with ample reserve power, will he buy the bigger and heavier 17"? Probably not.
I understand that Apple way of doing business is keeping only what's essential with no unnecessary options (I'm looking at you, Asus, with you at least 10 different versions of you netbook). But this time, not everyone can find what he or she wants in Apple's line of laptops, as opposed to the iPod thing, where virtually any possible preference is covered.

GeForce4 MX using DVI to S-VIDEO / Composite Adapter

Hi peoples,
I'm running a PowerMac G4 Dual-867MHz MDD, with nVIDIA GeForce4 MX Video card.
I want to connect this PowerMac to the TV, so I bought the DVI to S-VIDEO/Composite, to find out that it doesn't work with this video card.
My question is;
is there something I can do to get this adapter working with my current set up, or do i need another video card or something?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Cheers.

A new video card would work. e.g.
ATI Radeon Pro PC&Mac Edition 256 MB. Has two DVI
ports. The DVI to S_Video adapter will work on one
port, the other port can handle a screen up to 30".
ATI Radeon 9800 Pro Mac Edition 256 MB. Better 3D
performance. One DVI port (single-link, no 30"
support), VGA port, and S-Video port. S-Video to
composite adapter included.
There are also used Mac, and modified PC cards that
would work.
Thanks for your reply. 3D performance isn't really required, as it's being used a server machine that will be hooked up to the TV, so it's hard to justify a Radeon 9800 Pro. Hopefull I can find something cheap & nasty, else this baby is going on eBay.
Cheers.

No display after sleep with macmini using DVI - S-video/composite under XP

Hi guys, I have installed XP on my mini. I have CRT TV so I'm using
DVI -> S-video/composite to output to my TV.
The problem is after sleep - there is no display (it's woking only after reset).
I installed the latest drivers from the mac os 10.5 DVD & updated the graphics driver from Intel.
Please help

Unfortunately, no answer, as I'm having the similar problem with a Samsung SyncMaster 215tw and a G4 Mini. It works with the DVI-VGA adapter and the VGA cable into the montor's VGA port. However, connecting with the G$ Mini's DVI port with the monitor's DVI port using a DVI cable doesn't work. I cannot figure out why this doesn't work.
The DVI cable is good and the monitor's DVI port is good, as the connection does work using my friend's Intel Mini's DVI port connected to the monitor's DVI port using the DVI cable.
The monitor is new, too, and otherwise works fine with my other Macs connected with the VGA port. (I've not tried the additional ports as yet.)
Although the monitor is supposed to synchroize automatically, I also tried manually presetting the G4 Mini to different resolutions, but that didn't make any difference. The screen remains black when it should be showing the booting Apple icon.
Any idea what is going wrong here, please, as it sounds as if this same thing occurs with various monitors?

Macbook to TV(S-video/composite)

Hey I recently bought a mini DVI to Video adapter for my Macbook so that I can connect it to a Television set. Connected with S-video & Composite(yellow jack), both ways does not connect properly.. what shows on the TV is in black White and the picture just goes up and down(freaking out).
Can anyone help me with this?

I had a concern along the same lines, so I'll try asking in this thread rather than starting another.
I recently decided that I wanted to have the ability to play video from my MacBook (earliest model) on a TV. The TV is nothing special, so it uses your run-of-the-mill S-video cable. If I understand correctly, the MacBook uses a mini DisplayPort, so I'd need an adapter between the two. Am I correct that Apple pretty much produces every video adapter BUT this one? Do they really expect you to daisy chain two adapters (e.g. mDP to mDVI and mDVI to S-video)? Seems low.
Please correct me if I'm missing something. I'd just like to get this thing running Thanks for your input!

Best Composite Out Solution?

I have a Mac Pro with FCP. I would like to have a card that does composite out (while not replacing the current card i have, 512mb ATI RAEDEON). What is the cheapest solution for this? Basically I just want to plug into my SD TV to look at the image on a bigger monitor while I edit.

#8 External Monitor Viewing.
Shane's Stock Answer #8:
A simple path is mac > firewire > camera or deck > rca cables > tv
Then start up your camera and tv, then open fcp.
Then go View > External video > all frames
Video playback should be Apple firewire NTSC (If you are using an NTSC set)Audio playback should be Audio follows Video
Techinially, this should send synched video to your TV
If for some reason you can't view your timeline on your external monitor, there are a few things to try:
1) Make sure that the camera/deck is connected and powered on BEFORE you open FCP.
2) In the Final Cut Pro menu select AUDIO/VIDEO Preferences and make sure your signal is being sent out thru Firewire DV.
3) Go to the menu and select VIEW>EXTERNAL>ALL FRAMES.
4) Click in the % box above the image and select FIT TO WINDOW.
5) Go to VIEW->refresh A/V devices
6) Make sure the Log & Capture window is closed
If you want it to play in both the canvas and the external monitor you need to go to the FINAL CUT PRO menu and select AUDIO/VIDIO settings and make sure MIRROR ON DESKTOP is selected under the PLAYBACK OUTPUT section
If you don't want to use your camera or deck, then you need a device like the ADVC-110 or Matrox MXO...or a CAPTURE CARD if you have $2000 laying about.

Why is my video exporting out of sync with the audio?

Every time I export it (and it takes some 2 hours just to export a draft version) the video is sped up, but the audio isn't, so that the video is out of sync and at the end there's just black space with the end of the audio.
Both the video footage and the composition have the same frame rate (24p). I am exporting with Render Settings set to DV settings and output module set to Quicktime DV NTSC 48kHz
When I edit it I've been timing it to the seconds and frames because it's such a large file that I can barely RAM preview 5 seconds of it, and so it's especially frustrating that it's completely off when it exports.
Has this ever happened to anyone here?

Ahhh, right.
I'm using After Effects CS5.
The footage I'm using is in .mov format, although to be honest I'm not sure about the codec (I imported it straight to After Effects from my Canon 7D's memory card? I think it's H.264)
I also have some PNG sequences.
I used the AE Render Queue.

DVI to S-Video & Composite plug cable needed for output to audio/TV system

I'm in need of a DVI to S-Video and Composite plug cable to replace the Monster iTV Link cable I used with my 12" Aluminum PowerBook. (http://www.monstercable.com/apple/Computer.asp) I use it to output to my audio/TV system.
Whereas the PowerBook used a mini-DVI port and had the audio output jack on the same side of the computer, the MacBook Pro uses a full size DVI port and has the audio jack on the opposite side!
I've been unable to find a cable so that I can connect up to a TV. Does anyone know where I can find one? Or perhaps a DVI to mini-DVI adapter? Or perhaps a VGA to S-Video/Composite cable and I can use the DVI to VGA adapter that came with the computer?
This is very frustrating!

Apple's video adapters have a ROM chip inside them with EDID data contained within the ROM. That is one thing that will definitely be different between the two. The NTSC and PAL version (M9267G/A) gives priority to NTSC. This could cause problems in a PAL country. If you hooked a PAL TV up using this adapter, you might get a rolling (non-synced) screen and you'd have no good way to recover since the image on the screen would be unusable.
I don't think one adapter would have any advantage over the other in terms of PAL picture quality. It would just be a question of compatibility as outlined above. That's my best guess.

DVI --- S-Video/Composite - Blinking?

I have a DVI to S-Video/Composite adapter that I'm plugging into a video mixer for Keynote presentations, that displays on various resolution monitors (some are regular TVs while others are flat screen LCDs). Seemingly without reason, all the monitors begin blinking until I unplug / plug the connection back in again. From that point on, sometimes my presentation has no issues at all, while other times it seems to immediately start happening again. Has anyone experienced this issue as well?

GeForce2 MX - MS Starforce 818 S Video - TV Out not working ?

Hi,
I'm using MSI GeForce2 MX Nvidia MS Starforce 818 which have an S-Video video out port in it. A few while back, I try to use this TV Out port for the first time with the S Video cable given upon purchase. Since I have no idea how to use this TV Out port before, I was skimming through everything, and found out that I can use it by clicking on the "Display" properties of windows, go to the "Settings" tabs, and I can choose the display that I want to use, whether a regular monitor I'm using, or to the tv when the S-Video TV Out cable is plugged in. Yesterday I try to do the same thing, and suddenly on the "Display" properties, on the settings tabs, I can't choose where do I want the display to be, and plugging in the S-Video cable only cause the monitor to blank out.
I haven't tried uninstalling the video card, since I can't find the cd that comes with it when I bought the video card about 4 years ago.. and I can't seem to find the drivers on the net as well. I'm using win xp sp 2.
Anyone know how can I use the TV Out port aside from the "Settings" tabs of the "Display" properties of windows ? I'm lost right now, and dunno what is wrong.
Sorry if my english is hard to understand, do let me know if there's anything u can't understand.
Thanks,
Djoni

Now that Nview detects my TV I was hoping that maybe I could select the clone options and use the dual monitor option of my card. Nope, Nview detects the monitor and the tv but all the other options are greyed out. So I cannot use anything else than Standard (Dual View).
Ok. I think i have same problem. I have solved it by connecting my analog monitor to to DVI output with DVI to analog conector that came with the vga card. And it worked. Only now i have another problem. Vga card can't recognize my tv as PAL/G but as M/NTSC. Everytime i reboot my computer it goes back to M/NTSC. I am using detonator drivers 40.72 and with original MSI drivers it worked OK.

Mac mini mid 2011 video blinking out too

As the 2012 mac mini, my mac mini mid 2011 with the 3000 graphics chipset, has video blinking out every hour for about a second, since I upgraded from an ancient cinema display (1600x1040) to a DELL U2713HM 2560x1440 pixels. The old display blinked very rarely too, which I thought to be dips in the grid. The new display blacks out every hour for 1-2 seconds. And when the machine is heavily loaded (xcode indexing 500 files): about every minute.
It is becoming really acute since I updated to OS X 10.8.5 (12F37), and even WORSE and UNWORKABLE: when the video now blinks the monitor enters power save mode, and I need to switch off and on the monitor to wake up video...

I connected the display via a mini-displayport to displayport cable (the DELL has a displayport port too), but I don't think that is relevant. I don't have that ridiculously overpriced dual-link DVI converter.
Filed a bug at Apple, submitted some system reports when the prob occurred. I hope they will release a firmware fix, or I'll take the mini back to the shop.

Hi Rick, I'd see if it's reated to this, which has many symptoms...
Try this: "sudo pmset autopoweroff 0" and "sudo pmset standby 0"

HT1454 Can't see ipod videos from 60GB ipod classic. I have Apple USB/video cable running through Onkyo receiver into Samsung TV. Video & TV out settings seem correct-I can see album cover, but no video. Is it possible to get itunes music videos to play

Can't see ipod videos from 60GB ipod classic. I have Apple USB/video cable running through Onkyo receiver into Samsung TV. Video & TV out settings seem correct-I can see album cover, but no video. Is it possible to get itunes music videos to play or do I need to get new ipod. It works on my iPad and iPhone, but not through iPod Classic.

Are these music videos located under Videos on your iPod? Do it play other regular movies (if you have any on the device)?
