Pbk G4 and Sony TV

I have a powerbook G4 with s-video. I'd like to play DVD's on the powerbook and display on my sony tv (kv20fs12). Looks like the only ports on the tv are RCA like this:

I have the Monster iTV link for 15 and 17 powerbooks but I think it would only work if my tv had S-video?

What cable do I need?
Thanks!
PowerBook G4 15" Mac OS X (10.4.7)

To get s-video support on your tv you need some adapter cable...or a switch. They're used to plug in three or four items into the standard RCA (red yellow white) plugs if your tv doesn't have enough. They usually have an s-video in on every input and they usually run about 15-20$.

Capturing Issues using FCP 7 and Sony HVRZ7U

I am using FCP 7.0.3
On a Mac Book Pro OS 10.5.8
With 2.33 Ghz Intel Core 2 duo processor
I am capturing HD tapes to a WD 2TB external drive.
I am using the Sony HVRZ7U as my playback deck All HD footage was shot on Sony HVRZ7U and Sony HDRFX1.
I have my capture settings set to HDV apple pro res 4222
A. I have noticed that FCP is not capturing in “real time” is this due to the hi res capturing setting? and do I need to let FCP finish process footage even though tape is done with capture? (This usualy adds another 20mins per 1 hr off footage) Is there something I can do to maintain high quality and not have to wait for FCP to be behind capture?
B. Having already gone through aprox 20+ tapes I have come across a few tapes that wont capture? is this due to the fact that not all tapes came from the same camera source? or is it perhaps a bad tape? or something in FCP that went buggy? i tried the usual dumping my preference files, but still fcp keeps frezzing on the capture and then not saving any of the file. I tired to capture smaller portions of tape but still no mater where on tape I try to capture I get same problem

A. Yes and yes. Only by increasing the speed of the processor.
B. Maybe because of the different camera types, what cameras are they? It could be a bad tape. Can you view it playing back in your camera?

Lightroom v. 3.6 and Sony A99 RAW does not match

I recently bought the newest Sony A99 camera, but it seems L.v. 3.6 does not manage this (aparently new) type of RAW-pictures.
Do I have to buy the L.v.4 or can I use v. 3.6 with changing some settings?
Thank you

Hello mJim,
It works. Thank you for your help.

Camera Raw And Sony Cameras

I have Photoshop CS5 and Camera Raw 2012 version 6.7.0.339. In Camera Raws camera Calibration Panel under Camera Profile it only says Adobe Standard, there is no drop down menu with eg. Landscape , Camera vivid etc. My Cameras are Sony SLTa65 and Sony A33 which are supported by this version of Camera Raw. Why is there no drop down menu and a different process date?

Snow Leopard and Sony eReader PRS 600

Is anyone else having a problem with this? I can get my computer authorised but not my eReader. Adobe Digital Editions and Sony are not responding to my queries about this. I need an Apple expert to tell me what to do!!!

I have a PRS 505 eReader that works fine with the Sony Reader Library s/w on Snow Leopard but is not recognized by Adobe Digital Editions...no problem I can download what I need with Reader Library. Recently bought a PRS 600 eReader for my wife and it does not work with on Snow Leopard. Same story on my wife's iMac running Snow Leopard.
When I boot to Windows XP on my MacBook Pro both the PRS 600 and the PRS 505 work fine with both Reader Library and Adobe Digital Editions (have read that Adobe Digital Editions do not recognize Sony ereaders under Mac OSX)
Conclusion: Just have to wait for Sony to get their act together and update the software/firmware to work properly under Mac OSX Snow Leopard (do not know how the PRS 600 works with earlier Mac OSX versions). Their latest firmware download for the PRS 600 on their support website is at an earlier version than what came with the ereader! Also when running Snow Leopard under 32 bit kernel the Ereader errors are even worse (hold down the 3 & 2 keys while booting up).
Suggestions from their help desk made things worse.....had to spend some time recovering from their ill-informed suggestions.
Pity about their software support. Once you have the books downloaded the Sony is a great machine to use.
I suppose patience is the key word here.

Graphics cards and After Effects, Premiere Pro, and Sony Vegas...which is best?

Debating between two EVGA cards for a new build.
I don't game at all, but I want the most kickass system I can for After Effects CS6, Premiere Pro CS6, and Sony Vegas.
Kepler option: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6814130768
Fermi option: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6814130687
Will spending more and waiting for Kepler net that much of a performance gain? Is there anywhere with good benchmarks on GPUs just for Adobe products and video editing? Which matters more and for what: OpenGL, Cuda, Memory Size, Clock speed?

It's not pointless. I know which cards are supported and which aren't. I'm not confused about which is supported. I know the 680 is not explicitly supported (yet?), but OpenGL and CUDA will still provide some benefit or no?
The GTX 580 and GTX 570 seem to "compute" far better than the GTX 680. I was kind of wondering real world what that mean for PP and AE and what it didn't mean.
I guess some of my interest is in understanding practically what a few more CUDA cores will do or what makes the OpenGL performance of a card better: Cuda, Memory Size, Clock Speed...what.
Ie, is the GTX 680 justified when it seems like it might not be a big enough bang for the buck.

Yes. Sony's Image Data Converter v.4 opens all Sony RAW file formats.
The Image that you see when you import a new Sony RAW file is a JPG that is included with the RAW file.

Hi Jerrypan112,
You may try adding Digital Optical connection from the TV to the Home Theater System if they supports Digital Optical connection.

Canon 5dMII and Sony A900 support

New released cameras need ACR and Lightroom support for Canon 5dMII and Sony A900.

Jeff, CS4 shipping dates have not been announced (I'm on the list to be notified when CS4 will ship. There is no announcement... yet speculation of end of October shipping is from adobe saying they expect CS4 to ship in Fourth quarter 2008. no guarantee of that shipping date, until it's announced. In Fourth quarter 2008 could be end of December, we have to wait and see) As for 5DMII the shipping date is rumored at end of November 2008, but not announced, and that date seems to be headed toward mid-December or January.....I do agree that LR2.1 and ACR4.6 will likely be released by Fourth quarter, pending no major bugs are found in either program.
I expect adobe gets cameras for testing and profiling when reviewers received the camera. So, yes, If production cameras are available to a select few I expect adobe, to have the camera and, to be building support for the camera including that support once they complete their profiling; regardless of the camera shipping date.
LJ the unofficial support for the A900 is due to ACR using the A700 raw profile to work with the A900 RAW files. This is not the same as supporting the camera. Yes, it allows A900 owners to work in RAW, but not with the correct profile.

IMovie and Sony camera can connect, but nothing imports

My iMovie and Sony HD camera can connect fine...I can control my camera from imovie, but when i click import, it plays (plays on camera and timer on imovie starts) but the screen remains blue and no video is actually imported.

Did you try Sue's excellent suggestion of the Garage band trick anyway?
Also, try deleting iMovie's preference file...the plist found in YourUserName->Library->preferences->com.apple.iMovieplist. Close iMovie, trash the plist. iMovie will create another one when you launch iMovie again.
Do you have the camcorder plugged directly into your computer's Firewire port? Some camcorders don't work properly if they are connected into another device. And, just to be sure, you do have the camcorder set to VTR, right?

Thanks. I spent 75 minutes with Apple help and went to the Apple store - they all say it is the router and not the MacPro but I can't get wireless with the Mac and I can with the Dell and Sony. What do I do next - call the GeekSquad?

Netflix and Sony Blu Ray players

I've recently purchased a Sony Bdp-S3500 Blu Ray Player to replace my aging BDP -S280. The set up was easy and everything works....except Netflix. I have gone thru every step on the Netflix Website and I have spoken with Sony Support and I still receive an Nw 8-17 cannot connect with Netflix server error. I've been told my Netflix it must be an issue with my ISP. Sony told me I must not have enough of a connection speed. Netflix says its Sony and Sony Says it Netflix servers.   Such nonsense! I just bought my S3500 on Saturday 8/1.   After neither Sony or Netflix have been any help, will not say what the problem is and simply want the customer to do a variety of fixes that WILL NOT WORK...I simply boxed the S3500 and plugged my S280 back in and low and behold....I HAVE NETFLIX AGAIN!!! Clearly with the roll out of the latest Netflix app on 07/28/2015, this has destroyed the connection between Sony and Netflix.   Why neither will admit to this and just simply say sorry...Yes there is an error but we are working to correct this is beyond me.    Sony/Netflix....stop having the customer waste time with dumb fixes and be honest. People appreciate that more than these idiotic robotic responses that you keep feeding us. Again...my old BDP S280 works and receives Netflix but my brand new released in March 2015 Sony S3500 fails to connect every single time. Stop Lying to your customers, tell the truth and fix the PROBLEM!!!!!!!

You View and Sony Bravia HDMI connection issues

For what it is worth I though I would post a solution that has worked which solved compatability issues between some Sony Bravia TV's and YouView boxes.
I have used a YouView box with no problem via a SCART on an old TV
I invested in a Sony Bravia - installed today by John Lewis
The YouView was only recognised by the Bravia if it was switched on by the power switch - once on it bringing it out of standby via the remote and selecting the input on the Bravia would only lead to a Blank Screen on the Sony (it would also not swiitch automatically to the input the YouView was on).
Long discussion with Sony followed and Sony said "most" of their TV's would recognise YouView via HDMI - but some had "unexplained" compatability issues - when asked what I should do the Sony man said if this was important I should ask John Lewis to change the set.......
Helpful discussion with John Lewis support - I did not want to change the set and JL suggeted connecting the YouView to the Sony HDMI via an HDMI "switch" box - only connecting the YouView to the switch box. (It seems that the Sony will recognise the switch - but not the YouView directly....)
Bought a Switch from Maplin (HSW0501BN) - connected YouView to the switch and the switch to Sony Bravia TV via HDMI - and it works brilliantly.....
Turning the YouView on/off via the remote from standby changes the input source to the YouView on the Sony - and it has always been recognise by the Sony - no more blank screens.
A pain in the neck for a new TV - clearly a problem with some Sony Bravia TV's and YouView - it would be nice if both YouView (Humax) and Sony could talk together to fix it....
But for now it seems the intermediate switch gets over the issue.
I thought this was worth sharing in case anyone else has the same issue - I cannot say it will work for every-one - but it worked for me - thanks to John Lewis support.............
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi
It's a SONY KD-55X-8505BBU -- It's the "lo-spec" 4K model and works brilliantly.
The SONY man said "most" of their TV's work with YouView HDMI - but they have had some instances of incompatability and could do nothing about it.............
The YouView worked with the SONY - but it needed to be switched on and off for the HDMI to recognise it - I temporarily ran it through the SCART - which worked OK (to which the SONY man asked why I was concerned if it worked with a SCART!!!)
The advice from John Lewis was great - just connected the YouView HDMI to a HDMI switch box - and connected the swirch box to the SONY - it all works fine now.
It just seems that SONY are not aware (or are not prepared to tell you) the solution - and only higher level John Lewis staff are aware of this (the John Lewis installer was stumped).
Not sure anyone else will have the problem (although I have seen several reports of this on the web) - and I am happy with the solution - just wish the (paid for) installers knew - and that SONY knew/or were prepared to tell you (guess they did not want to be asked for the price of the HDMI to cure the "incompatability" problem).
I was so amazed at the poor response from SONY and I asked them to confirm that the call was recorded and took the recording number - needless to say John Lewis was not impressed with Sony telling me that the only solution was to send the set back to John Lewis -- Sony have suffered a big drop in my estimation - although the TV is brilliant......

Adobe and Sony Photoshop Elements Serial Number Ping Pong !

Hi
I wanted you all to know what is going on.
See below my first 'ANGRY' support message I sent and their replies - actually this offer tipped me to buy this laptop instead of another one and I did contact SONY several times and they pretended not to understand and in their website is stated and listed as 'included programs'.
It is a trick to make customers buy their product? Sometime ago offers were 'real' offers.
IS THIS EVEN LEGAL ? A purchase is a contacrt the buyer/the sellers and its suppliers (Adobe!)
Next time, it will be a Toshiba (again!) - it has lasted me 5 years or had labour and it still is going - it stillis working and on Linux this time!
Saturday, 17 October 2009 10:49:44 o'clock BST - Product registration
===================================================
Hello
I have just purchased a SONY VAIO with these programs bundled/installed/no doscs/no licence!
I wish to:
1. register them and I cannot since your program only show 5 groups of digits instead of the 6 needed!
2. I wish to install Linux on this computer, but I cannot install PSE7 and Adobe Premiere E 7 without a licence!
Which should have been part of my purchase.
I feel I have been robbed.
As soon as you run it, your programs connects and show us the 'called option' to purchase upgrade to version 8 - are you trying to make us pay twice for the same programs?
What is the solution here? I spent hunfdreds of £££ during the years 'macromedia too to get treated like this?

Dear Barbara
Thank you for your reply.
Either Sony or Trade Standards, plus advertising on MoneySavingExpert and
Watchdog and so on.
Just a few millions will see the way your partnership with Sony works, in
order to 'force' sell your products!
Kind Regards

PS ... and comes Europa! It is so silly to get into trouble to save money
and get customers this way, very silly - I miss Macromedia.
