Problem with video out sporatically failing

I have a 2G Touch and an iPod -> Composite Video cable hooked to my HD TV. I have sometimes been able to easily view video from my iPod but at other times I get "Device is not supported" error after which, no matter what I do, it refuses to work. How can a device work one time and not be supported the next?

It's been hit and miss the whole time I've had it. I tried going into Settings but there is nothing there to make it work any better. I am looking at a new Samsung home theater system that has iPod support, and I hope I don't have the same kind of problem there as well.

  • Problems with video out after closing the lid.

    I bought a Mini-Display Port to HDMI and connected it to my macbook pro and to my tv....Everything is perfect i close the lid....Now i am pretty sure i read somewhere that you can still use your macbook if you have it connected to an external screen and even if the lid is closed...can anyone tell me if i have to do something in the preferences?or is it just normal...I am new with macs,just bought mine 1 1/2 months ago so please take it easy on me... :P Thanks

    You can use the MacBook Pro after you close the lid it's called 'Clamshell Mode' but for it to work correctly you have to attached a keyboard and mouse as well as the TV, then you can close the lid to put it to sleep then touch a key on the keyboard or move the mouse and it will wake up again and display on the screen.

  • Problem with video capture device, with a virtual camera

    I try to use Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder 3 with a virtual camera(DirectShow Filter) but met such a problem:
    "Error connecting input preview RGB filter."
    "Failed with error 80004005:SetupInputVideoPreview(pFilter, pguidCategory)"
    "Failed with error ffffff97:SetupVideoPreview(pFilterSource)"
    "Problem with video capture device. Please verify that the video capture device is working correctly and is not already in use."
    However, it is good to use AMCap,
    what's the problem with FMLE.
    Looking forward to your replies. Thx!

    Did you ever figure out the problem/solution?
    I am experiencing the same thing with my virtual camera filter when connecting to FME?

  • Problems with TV Out signal after upgrading to iOS 5.1

    Has anyone experienced problems with TV Out signals on their iPad 2 using the Apple HDMI Adapter after upgrading to iOS 5.1?  I am trying to connect to my HDTV after upgrading and cintunally receive an "Unsupported Video Signal" message with a blank/back screen.  Prior to upgrading, I had no connection problems and could view TV Shows, Movies, Music Videos, Keynote, etc...without problems.  I've been unable to find any resolution to this problem, even followed Apple guidance to detach and reattach the HDMI adapter without success.  Seems like a software bug to me and it's a major problem when trying to conduct business or personal activities.  Hopeing Apple has a fix in work already...anyone else have any ideas?  Thx in advance...

    Try a reset. Press & hold the Power and Home buttons together for 10+ seconds, ignoring the red power-off slider, until you see the Apple logo. It is safe to do, there should be no content loss. It is the same as rebooting your computer.
    If that does not work, restore the iPad to the factory settings.

    Exactlly which model iMac do you have?
    see > How to identify iMac models
    Unfortunately that is not all that uncommon for the Early Intel iMac's given there age and the fact that the air intakes are probably choked with dust. Then add the extra heat caused by running a more intense OS X which is causing it to run a little warmer than normal and putting extra stress on the graphic and display components.
    My 6½ year old 17" Early 2006 Core Duo w/2GB of RAM is also running 10.6.8 and is also starting to get a single line that (knock on wood) goes away after a few minutes, while many others started getting permanent ones after 2 or 3 years. One thing that I think has helped, is that about every 3 or 4 months I shutdown and vigorously vacuum out the bottom grill work and small vent under the stand to keep it running cool.
    On that note: unfortunately I can only suggest that you clean your intake vents and hope that no permanent or irreversible damage has been done.

  • Problem with fading out particles in cs5

    I have a problem with fading out particles or anything for that matter in my CS5 after effects!  I set up the key frames right.  O opacity at first and whatever number at next and it fades in fine,  But when I try to do the reverse it will not fade out and only stops the effect if I cut its durration at the red par representing it on the top of the time line. This produces and rough aburpt cut of the effect which will not due.  Please can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong that I can't fade out particles with opacity?

    First question: What OS and what's the build of CS5.5?
    Second question: What effect are you using? There are a bunch of ways to generate particles.
    Last question: if you turn off the effect can you get the layer to fade out? Pressing Alt/Option + t will set a keyframe for opacity on your layer and reveal the keyframe in the time line. Do that, set the value to 0, then move down the timeline a few frames and set the value to 100. This should generate another keyframe. Now move down a few more frames and press Alt/Option + t or change the value for opacity to anything and then back to 100, or copy the previous keyframe and paste to set a 3rd keyframe. Finally move down a few more frames and set the value to 0. You should have 4 keyframes in your tlimeline for opacity. If you want to clean up the layer press Alt/Option + ] to set the out point for the layer.
    Everything should work just fine. Turn on the effect and your layer and the effect should fade out.
    If you want to do something else with the particles, like fade out a particle over the lifetime of the particle we'll need to know which plug-in you're using.

  • Problems with filling out PDF forms

    We have problems with filling out PDF-forms. Aotomatic filling of forms is deactivated and we use the Adobe Reader 11.0.05. The problem is: After some time the inputs are wrong put down in the form. For example: I write 120 and in the form stands 125. We have already extinguished the cache. Thanks for your help in advance.

    You will get that first message when the document has been changed in a way that invalidates the internal digital signature that's applied when a document is Reader-enabled. Certain changes are allowed (e.g., filling fields, commenting, signing) and will not invalidate the signature, but others are not. The exact cause of the change is often hard to track down, but it can be due to font problems, some type of file corruption, or something that Acrobat/Reader attempts to correct when the file is opened/saved. You will also get the message if the users system time is not correct and is currently set to some time before the document was Reader-enabled. It seems best to use the most recent version of Acrobat to enabled the documents and recent versions of Reader to work with them.
    It problem is probably not related to the user using anything in the Sign pane.

    PROBLEms with videos in imac G4 flat 17'

    It would help to know what videos you are having trouble with?   Are these from specific internet links? Are these playing back commercial DVDs? Are these videos produced by iMovie, Final Cut Pro, or iDVD of home video? Are these videos imported from an external Firewire or USB adapter such as Elgato's devices. You give us little to go on.   Please give us more details what is going on?

  • Problem with video playback with iTunes

    Several problems :
    Problem with video playback with iTunes -
    Since about a week, When I launch a video, it takes a long time to get started, then only the sound starts with no pictures - If I press pause then play the video is played normally. Did anyone face or heard about same kind of issue .
    Problem with permission disk errors
    After re-installing White Tiger and After I installed the last OSX 10.6.5 update
    I found the following problem
    Group differs on "Applications / Utilities / AirPort Utility.app / Contents / Resources / wanArrow.png", should be 0 instead of 80.
    Last but not least :
    My computer seems slow - I have 60gig free on My hard drive and I test my hard drive and everything seems all good .

    What was the fix for this? Everything has sucked for my itunes video playback since the last major revision release.

  • I'm having problems with videos, they shake and the images break up back and forth into striped colors, how do I fix this?

    I'm having problems with videos, they shake and the images break up back and forth into striped colors, how do I fix this?

    1) This is because of software version 1.1. See this
    thread for some options as to how to go back to 1.0,
    which will correct the problem...
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=3754

    2) This tends to happen after videos. Give the iPod a
    minute or two to readjust. It should now be more
    accurate.
    3) This?
    iPod shows a folder icon with exclamation
    point
    4) Restore the iPod
    5) Try these...
    iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo and Will Not Start
    Up
    iPod Only Shows An Apple Logo
    I think 3,4, and 5 are related. Try the options I
    posted for each one.
    btabz
    I just noticed that one of the restore methods you posted was to put it into Disk Mode First rather than just use the resstore straight off, I Have tried that and seems to have solved the problem, If it has thank you. previously I have only tried just restoring it skipping this extra step. Hope my iPod stays healthy, if it doesnt its a warrenty job me thinks any way thanks again

  • I cannot drop any pictures in iMovie 9 (no problem with video)

    I cannot add any pictures in iMovie 9. I have no problem with videos, but when I want to drag and drop pictures, it does not work. (Pictures do not drop..) Does anyone know how to do?
    Thank you a lot

    You need to create a play list of songs that you would use for movies - mine is called Music for Movies.  Then when you click on the music icon (the first box in the line of 5 in the grey bar across the lower third of the screen) and a drop down menu will appear showing all your play lists.  Then simply drag and drop, but make sure that you hover over the video clip that you want to add the music to.  If you don't the music will be added to the start of your presentation.  You can always move the position afterwards. NOTE - if you want to add to your play list do it before you start your video editing as the list does not always update when I Movie. 

  • Problem with Video capture Device

    i have a problem with FME. i am using Avermedia TV capture
    device and Canon 3ccd Digital Video Camcorder ( PAL ) when i open
    the FME interface the warning given for " Problem with Video
    Capture Device".
    i read all the topics in Flash Media Encoder Category, if
    this problem occures my capture device ( i expect MPEG ) how to
    solve this problem?
    Thanks,

    The Device Matrix is something we'll be updating in the
    future as we continue to test more and more equipement. Ideally, I
    would like for users such as yourselves to be able to add to it and
    tell us what has worked for you as well. If anyone has any ideas
    about what technology we should use to do this (e.g., this forum? a
    wiki?) please let me know.
    Regarding the devices not working - the main problem we see
    is that the system requirements are not being met. Here is what to
    check for:
    - are you running on Windows XP (only supported OS right
    now)?
    - do you have DirectX client runtime version 9c or higher
    installed?
    - do you have hardware acceleration enabled?
    - do you have 32bit graphics enabled?
    - do you have the latest direct show drivers from the
    card/device manufacturer?
    Thanks,

    Flash Media Encoder 2.5 working without any errors

    The second message that you are getting "The selected audio device "Beholder Aud Capture (SAA7135)" doesn't allow setting volume intensity. Disabling the volume slider control." is because your device does not let you change intensity of volume. This warning message is just to tell user that volume slider will remain disabled for the selecetd device. This is new addition in FMLE 3.0 and was not there in FMLE 2.5
    Also for first message, please make sure that no other instance of FMLE is already running using this device. You can verify this from task manager. If any other instance of FMLE is running then please close that instance so that device gets free for new instance.
