Radeon 9200 s-Video out to tv?

I've got a Blue and white Power Mac G3 with 1 gig of ram and a 600 mhz G4 processor and a radeon 9200 Mac edition graphics card. I'm try to send the desktop image as is to my tv through the s-video out. I've got the tv connected but the screen is blank. Has any one done this? How do I get the signal to got to both my monitor and my tv? Anybody know?

OK my problem was none of my equipment had an s-video in so I bought an a-b switch that had an s-video in and RCA outs and that was the problem. I took it back and exchanged it for something that converts s-video to coaxial out and that works like a charm.

  • Radeon 9200 S-Video Out Problem

    I have a Beige G3/Sonnet G4 with a Radeon 9200. I can't seem to get
    the Mac2TV ATI Displays Control Panel to install under Mac OS 9. Is
    the S-Video port supported under OS 9. If not, is the original Radeon?
    Thanks for any assistance.
    Sincerely,

    Was typing just as we needed to leave for the day yesterday. As far as the 9200 goes, my overall impression was that it was iffy with OS9 at best. It was developed while Apple was switching to OSX and I believe ATI was caught short. They delayed shipping several times and, by the time the cards shipped, they were OK with OSX except for the serios lack of Quartz Extreme support (a PCI limitation) but had immediate trouble with OS9
    I used my original 32MB RME under OS9 extensively. It was well-supported and did pretty amazing things well into the OSX era. Look for the Original, not the Radeon Mac Edition 7000. It had a less capacble chipset. You can tell an original by the presence of a cooling fan on the GPU.
    The 7000 and the 9200 are convection-cooled. If your G3 is a tower and you keep the 9200, consider adding a 60mm fan in the mounting spot at the rear of the dark plastic baffle. A mounting location is provided. I have a nice, quiet Vantec running there in the Beige G3 that ahs the Sonnet G3/500 and the 9200. The Vantac had the advantage of other such fans in that it came with long enough cabiles for mouting in that position and had the proper slitters to get to the power supply.
    I once had a link to an article on adding the extra fans and their Apple-furnished mounting points but I can't find it today. If you look at the baffle, you'll see them--one aft and one forward. The aft location services the PCI cards.

  • PM QS 933 w/ ATI Radeon 9200 Card: Picture rolls vertical line on TV Output

    Has anyone who uses an ATI Radeon 9200 Mac video card with s-video out ,
    when connecting it to your TV, do you see vertical picture rolls?
    I've tried installing Switch Res X to see if that would fix the issue,
    however it only address Monitor and not TV resolution.
    Is this a drawback of the card, or is there a way to tweak it so it
    can display without the picture constantly rolling from bottom to top
    the faded white line on picture?

    The way I have it setup is thusly:
    ATI Radeon 9200 Mac Card is set in PCI slot, no other monitor cards exist.
    S-VHS little yellow adapter (S-VHS to RCA) plugged into S-VHS slot,
    then three way ( Video, Stereo Audio) RCA cable is plugged into that
    running directly into AUX RCA front ports of TV.
    Picture Quality, Audio Quality is great. Color and Luminance is great.
    Only problem is when picture plays from Mac to TV, a faint ghosted
    ( 10%- 15%) veritical white stripe rolls from top to bottom to
    and then again.
    Funny thing is...I inserted a DVD Recorder between the Mac and the TV to
    see if I could record it so I could make a screen grab of the recording
    to post here for everyone, but the recording shows NO VERTICAL LINE ROLL.
    So my guess is that it is in the TV. I could try swapping out TVs,
    but since all my TVs are analog, ( and 32") I don't and can't afford
    to switch to an LCD of the same size right now, and if it is a bug
    in the card's way of synching to a TV, esp. Analog, then it would repeat
    the process.
    I also looked on ATI/AMD's website, nothing in its' FAQ or Support DB.
    I plan on trying to call them if I can't figure this out.

  • How can I get video out to my TV from my old G4 AGP 450mHz?

    Hi all,
    just wondering if anyone has any idea how to get video out from my old G4 tower? It's an AGP model (1st gen), 450mHz. All I've found so far is a link to very expensive Radeon cards, well beyond what I need, which is:
    - S-video or even RCA out so I can see my computer on a TV screen
    - Solution for under or around $50
    That's pretty much it. I can't seem to find a VGA to S-Video adapter anywhere out there - does it exist? I don't have DVI on this machine either.
    I've Googled this all over, and I saw plenty of stuff to get a Mac Mini out with a DVI adapter, but this obviously won't work (no DVI)
    Any ideas?
    thanks

    Hmm... not a bad idea! I even checked and apparently an ATI Radeon 7000 supports video-out. Gonna see if I can get one for cheap - maybe on ebay. This will work fine with Panther or Tiger?
    I've even considered buying a PC version of a Radeon card and flashing it to work with my G4, but that is very sketchy, even for me.
    Will let you know how this turns out. Any other ideas are welcome

    The not very expensive but also discontinued ATI
    Radeon 8500 Mac Edition AGP card has VGA DVI and
    S-Video out. Maybe you could try to find a used one
    on the market... I bough one through other world
    computing within the last year for not very much...
    Just an idea.

  • Radeon 9200 upgrade to dual 867 MDD

    Anyone have experience with the Radeon 9200 Mac video card? I’m looking for something that’ll run a 32” HDTV monitor at 1366x768 or 1280x720, I can’t currently do widescreen. I realize an AGP card would probably be better, but I also have an Apple monitor that I use with the machine that requires an ADC connection, and the 9600/9800 cards won’t do that; I’d need to get a $100 adapter from Apple. I just want to use the 32” to run iPhoto slideshows and look at some EyeTV videos, no gaming or fancy graphics work. Macsales said it would work, although ATI said no.
    Rob

    For what it's worth, ATI's web site does not show the Radeon 9200 as discontinued as of this morning, and OWC (macsales.com) does sell the 9200 (here: http://eshop.macsales.com/item/ATI%20Technologies/100436014/).
    I have a retail RME 9200 in a Beige G3 and it does not have a ADC connector. It has VGA, DVI and S-video, so would not solve your problem. You're better off trying to find an OEM card with ADC that someone pulled from a working Mac when they upgraded the card.
    Also, the lack of PCI graphics card support in some OSX functions (like Quartz Extreme) mean that 2D function is rather sluggish with the 9200. It's a great card for 3D apps but not so great with 2D functions like scrolling, OSX eye candy, and photo editing.

  • Upgraded Sawtooth 450Mhz AGP G4 video card to Radeon 9200

    Just upgraded my video card to a Radeon 9200 Mac version yesterday, from the original Rage 128 card. The 21" CRT Apple Studio Display had finally gone "toes up" after 7 years and 9 months of 12 hours use each and every single day at my studio (minus Christmas and Easter). Man I loved that monitor. I replaced it with a 23" Apple Cinema Display. It is nice, but it is BRIGHT. I feel like I need sunglasses on sitting in front of it.
    Anyway, everything went smooth with the upgrade yesterday, no problems. Then this morning, when I turned on the computer I was presented with a screen that reminded me of the windows "blue screen of death". My mouse arrow was on the screen and would move around, but my desktop icons and the Mac dock never popped up. Clicking with the mouse did nothing. Finally, after waiting 10 minutes I pushed the "reboot" button under the power button on the front of the tower and the system came up with no problems.
    I changed nothing other than the video card and monitor yesterday. This scares me. Any ideas what caused this?

    Hi-
    Welcome to Discussions!
    It would probably be best to boot from your OS install disc, and verify/repair the hard drive.
    One other possibility would be improper/corrupt third part items, such as drivers. With Panther, does ATI have any drivers necessary for the 9200? It would be worth checking the version. The retail update may be needed:
    http://ati.amd.com/support/drivers/mac/jan2005updater.html
    Yet another possibility is a startup item is causing the problem. Review the following for further instruction:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106464#symp1
    As for the bright display, yeah, I keep mine turned down about half way. You can adjust using the button on the right side of the display, or in System Preferences/Displays, or, if you have a Pro keyboard, F14 to dim, F15 to increase brightness.

  • Can't restart after upgrading video card to a Radeon 9200

    Hi All, I just purchased a Radeon 9200 AGP graphics card for my Quicksilver. I removed the old card which worked fine and installed the new card. As soon as I pushed the new card into the AGP slot the computer turned on and it started to start up. Then a rather load beep sound came through the speakers and the light on the front of the computer started to flash. I tried this a couple of times but it still will not start with the new card installed. Everything works fine with the original card.
    Anybody have any suggestions?

    Hi,
    Welcome to the Apple Discussion Forum!
    Did you purchase a regular PC version ATI 9200 video card that was 'flashed' for Mac use? Or, is it just a PC version ATI 9200.
    Either way, a regular PC version won't work in a Mac, even though it fit's the AGP slot. If it's a 'flashed' card from an Ebay Seller it sounds faulty, get a refund.
    ATI only offered a Mac Edition 9200 as a PCI card, not AGP. There was an ATI 9000 Mac Edition in AGP.

  • Radeon 9200 Pci  128 Video Card probelms

    Having some probelms here i installed the video card and restarted everything went well but when it booted up to my desktop it froze up and didnt want to do anything

    This ATI Knowledge Base article addresses the problem, occurring with a Radeon 9200 in early G4s running OS 9.2.2. Their suggestion is to move the Radeon card to a different slot and/or rearrange the existing PCI cards. They note that this problem doesn't occur in OS X.

  • Adding a PCI graphics card to a G5 to get S-Video out - ???

    Hello!
    I have a G5 and a Radeon 9650...everything is fine except:
    I would like to have S-Video out to preview my video scenes on a preview monitor!
    Unfortunately the Readeon 9650 has no video out and because I'm using two display, the Apple DVI-to-Video adapter is not an option for me.
    Ok! What about sticking an old Radeon 7000/9200/9250 PCI in my G5, so I will get video out and I could even attache a third display to it:-) ???
    As usual, PC graphic cards are way cheaper as the Apple ones, so is it possible to use a PC card WITHOUT flashing it???
    (I mean, the system just uses my 9650 for normal operation and the PCI card will just be used after OSX is running)
    Has anybody any experience with using two graphic cards in there G5??? Are there any problems with OSX?
    Cheers
    Balrock

    Hi Edwin,
    thanks for your answer!
    I thought that I will have to flash the card, but that should not be so much of a problem.
    Will a flashed (or nativ Mac) card in the PCI slot work without any problems together with my AGP 9650?
    Or will it confuse OSX and slow down the G5?
    There is also the problem of flashing a Radeon 9250(they are quite cheap!). Only Club3D cards are flashable as far as I know, but they are only tested when beeing the main/only graphics card in the computer.
    So, is it possible that flashed cards, not able to handle the boot process/be the main card, will still work with video out after OSX is up and running?
    I won't let my camera run all the time as a Firewire/S-Video converter.
    Cheers

  • Mac Pro & ATI Radeon 9200 graphics card

    I just bought a new Mac Pro but upon set-up I realized that I couldn't use my existing Apple monitor that has a ADC connection. I would have to buy the Apple DVI to ADC Adapter. Instead of doing this, could I take the ATI Radeon 9200 out of my old Quicksilver and put it in the new Mac Pro? This older video card has the right kind of connection that I need for this monitor. I could put it in and try but thought I would ask before I did just in case it is not compatible.

    I just bought a new Mac Pro but upon set-up I realized that I couldn't use my existing Apple monitor that has a ADC connection. I would have to buy the Apple DVI to ADC Adapter.
    The Apple adapter will work for a LCD with ADC, but not for a CRT.

    There are no ADC graphics cards that will work in a Mac Pro.

  • ATI Radeon 9200 Drivers

    I just purchased an ATI Radeon 9200 off of eBay for cheap to run on my Dual 2.0GHz PowerMac G5 (it's in the PXI-X slot). But the Mac won't see it and I can't find the right driver. Can somebody tell me where I can find them, if they exist, or if this card even works for my PowerMac? Thanks so much!

    Is it the Mac or PC version?
    There was a Mac-only version of that card. It was labeled the ATI Radeon Mac Edition 9200. Any other brand that ATI on a 9200 makes it not a Mac card. The "Mac Edition" part is critiacl but was only on the box.
    This is a pretty primitive card. It was relased in the transtion time between OS9 and OSX and seemed to suffer from idenity issues. I have one and the OSX support seemed rushed. The card could not even support Quartz Extreme--a basic OSX video technology--without a hack that caused as many problems as it cured.
    AMD wiped out the archived Mac drivers when the bought ATI. You might try third-party collections of drivers. Google "old computer drivers" to see a long list.
    I hate to say it but I think you bought the wrong card.

  • Analog VIDEO OUT on G5?

    I use a deck with Firewire in and S-video out with Final Cut. Can I get my G5 to send a signal the same way for DVD's, etc?
    Thanks so much!

    If your G5 has an ATI graphics card you can use the Apple DVI to Video adapter
    <http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPLE/WebObjects/AppleStore.woa/6554001/wo/UC1x Wq5YLADf3N7wDK02TefCVW1/3.0.21.1.0.8.25.7.11.2.3>
    If you don't have an ATI graphics card you can upgrade.
    If you have a newer G5 with the PCI-Express bus get the ATI Radeon® X1900 G5 Mac® Edition RoHS 256MB PCI Express®
    <http://shop.ati.com/product.asp?sku=3206129>
    If you have an older G5 with AGP slot, get the ATI Radeon X800 Mac Edition

  • Can i use an apple display with an ati radeon 9200?

    so, i have an old mac (bw g3 w/ g4 upgrade) and an old crt monitor (power computing 17"). the monitor is showing it's age and looks like it has maybe a month left.
    i can't afford a new mac right now as much as i would love to get an imac. but i will need a monitor so my question is can i buy/use an apple 20" monitor with my ati radeon 9200 video card?
    thanks

    My Mac mini (according to my system profile) has that same graphics card and it runs the monitor just fine, can get a bit choppy with Expose but thats neither here or there.
    Im not sure where in the world you live but in the UK a 20" ACD is almost the same money as a 17" iMac, that way you get your dream pc and a nice new Widescreen display.
    Hope you enjoy whatever you choose.

  • Composite video out on tx2520ej

    I've got an HP tx2520ej laptop with Radeon HD3200 chipset and s-video out. I want to connect it to the TV by using a composite video signal. Can i get composite signal from the s-video out port like shown on this pic, or the mobility radeon chipsets does not support this option?

    This is automatically handled by the aur package acpi-eeepc-generic. If OP does not have that one installed, I suggest he/she tries installing and configuring this package first. Fn+F5 should automagically toggle the external monitor.
