Playing Mac Book Videos on My Sony HDTV
I've been doing some research on this subject and I thought I would ask some of you here on the forum. I have a new Sony HDTV capable of 480p/720p/1080i and a brand new Mac Book. I want to know what the best method of playing videos from my Mac Book hard drive onto my HDTV is. My set has has component and HDMI inputs. Thanks!
I could be wrong, but I believe one of the differences in DVI v HDMI is that DVI does not carry audio, so you may want to verify that you may need another cable, or not.

I purchased a HDMI cable to watch movies and slide shows from my mac book pro to my Sony Bravia TV. I get picture through the TV but no sound. What am I doing wrong?
Go to sounds in system pref and select outputs. When the hdmi cable is plug into the tv it will show as an option under output. Just select that option.

What if your Mac Books video card does not meet the minimum system requirements
Just for the record it was an Early 2008 iMac 20" (MB324LL/A) with the ATI Radeon HD 2600 PRO with 256MB of GDDR3 memory in it.
Not sure why or how but overnight the system has decided to try and run the update again and this time it has updated all the apps.
The machine is running the apps fine and there are no real issues with the performance (other than the fact its over 5 years old, but thats understandable).
Im going to put it down to either a minor glitch in the update that was corrected fairly fast or just a hiccup from an old machine.
Thansk for the responces anyhow guys. -
Elements 4 for Mac books/videos
Is there a book or video specifically for PSE 4 for the Mac specifically that anyone can recommend?
There are no books specifically for PE 4/Mac, because the mac version didn't come out until 6 mos after the windows version and no publisher wanted to wait that long. I think Richard Lynch's book includes mac keystrokes, too, but it's the only one I know of.
FWIW, you can use any PE 4 book if you substitute command for ctrl and option for alt and ignore the organizer stuff. -
Playing Mac book through Samsung TV?
How do I get Samsung HDTV to recognize signal from macbook pro via mini display connector to HDMI? would like to watch movie on iTunes
Hi bmacmd,
Your MacBook Pro should see your TV as another monitor and will detect it automatically. If it is not, then consult the article below to troubleshoot the issue to get the issue resolved.

what wires do i need to connect my mac book pro to my sony HD TV?
Which TV do you have? It depends on
a) Which inputs your TV has
b) Which input you want to use of the ones you have.
The MBP has a DVI output on the right. So a "whatever input to your Sony TV" to DVI cable is what you need.
For example. I have a Sony HD CRT and I use DVI - HDMI cable.
It should just be plug and play.
Best of luck. -
TV Display for Mac Book Pro using DVI to VGA Cable
Have connected my Mac book Pro (2007) to Sony Bravo TV using the dvi to vga cable. The TV monitor only displays the startup screen. It does not display subsequent screens. It appears to be frozen and ignores any further displays or activities on my computer

I need to do live streaming with a Mac Book Pro 2011, using a new model of Sony HD camcorder (http://store.sony.co...ber=HDRAX2000/H) ..this camcorder model does not have firewire out/input ..it comes only with a component video output, USB, HDMI and composite A/V video output..
I wonder how can I plug this camcorder to the firewire port of my laptop? Browsing on internet I found that Grass Valley Company produces this converter http://www.amazon.co...=A17MC6HOH9AVE6 ..but I am not sure -not even after checking the amazon reviews- if this device will send the video signal through firewire to my laptop, in order to live streaming properly? ..anyone in this forum could help me please?
ThanxI can't broadcast with the built in iSight webcam... how would I zoom in or zoom out? or how would I pan? I've seem people doing it walking with their laptops but that's not an option for me... there's nothing wrong with my USB ports but that's neither an option to stream video because as far as I know through USB you can't connect video in apple operating systems ..you can for sure plug any video cam or photo camera through usb but as a drive to transfer data not as a live video camera... is by firewire an old interface developed by apple that you can connect all sorts of cameras to apple computers... unfortunately my new sony HDR-AX2000 camcorder doesn't have firewire output...
thanx -

I can't find the videos from my Sony camera on my Mac Book Pro
I can't locate the videos from my Sony camera on my Mac Book Pro. Do I need additional software?
How & where did you search? I gather the videos are no longer in the cam? Where do you have the videos go when transferring from your cam?
Download WhatSize and/or OmniDiskSweeper to see if you can "see" the videos. -
My Mac book pro pauses and choles when playing video files
Hi guys.
I have a mac book pro 13 months old. I have been using it successfully with final cut studio 2 for a while now. But now it will not play vdeo files without choking all the time. This is with all applications like a canvas in FCP, a QT movie, even avi files when viewed in movie maker on paralells. I have done a sweep with "OnyX" but no improvement.
I have empties the trash even.
Can anyone help?
PS the only way I can view video files is after they have been converted through flash to flv and then viewed in th "mpeg streamclip" application.If your Scratch Disc is the system drive; How full is it?
