S-Video Adapter Cables?

I've been trying to find a video out adapter for my 5G iPod Video. I don't want a dock because I need it to be portable. I don't care if it plugs into the headphone jack like a composite A/V cable or if it uses the dock connection.
Anyone know of such a creation? Thanks.

I read something during my internet searches for iPod video cables that some need to be plugged into the Apple Dock for video to work. Can this Monster cable be plugged directly into the iPod (no dock) and still work? Thanks

  • Problem with apple mini dvi to video adapter cable

    I recently bought an apple mini dvi to video adapter cable and all that it would display on my television screen was black and white colors. The quality of the screen seemed to be okay but it was hard to tell since i did not have any color. Is there something that i can do to fix this problem

    Your probably not doing anything wrong. There are thousands of users with Similar issues and it seems to be with many different adapters.
    We have Mini DP to VGA (3 different brands) and they all fail most of the time. This seems more prevalent with LCD Projectors. I've tested some (50+) with VGA Monitor (HP) and they all worked, LCD Projector (Epson, Hitachi, and Sanyo) and they all fail, DLP Projector (Sanyo) and one worked.
    My Apple Mini DP to DVi works most of the time. My Mini DP to HDMI (Generic non Apple) works every time.
    The general consensus is that Apple broke something in the OS around 10.6.4 or 10.6.5 and its not yet fixed. As we are a school we have logged a case with the EDU Support group so will see what happens.

  • Why is video adapter cable so short?

    I don't know if this is a stupid question, but why is the video adapter cable so short? I am trying to connect my iBook to my large plasma TV to play a slideshow, and I can't even lay the laptop down, let alone control it from in front of the TV. Am I missing something?

    The question isn't stupid at all (I originally thought the same thing). What you have to remember is that it's an adapter, not a cable. You still need an s-video, RGB or whatever cable thats required to connect from tv to the adapter.

  • Supplied video adapter cables?

    In my box were 2 video adapter cables. One is a DVI to VGA adapter, the other looks like DVI to DVI. What is it for?

    The DVI to DVI cable is for allowing two cables to be attached to your graphics card at the same time. Sometimes the plugs on some cables are a little wide so this adapter enables you to connect a narrower plug onto the card.

  • Hello! can I use a DVI to video adapter cable from my macbook to a 60 inch CRT TV?!

    Just got the TV tonight and connected my DVI cable. now I know the cable works because I used it on a MUCH smaller TV but this one is obviously enormous. I got the image to appear, it was just real blurry and crazy. is there a display setting that I could change somewhere to make it work do you think?

    Yes. But you would also need a DC adapter to power the Axiom, as the USB bus doubled as a power supply.

  • Iphoto crashing after using mini-dvi to video adapter

    Hi, IPhoto on my Macbook is crashing. I can open it, then as soon as I scroll down it locks up and I have to force quit.
    This started happening right after I used a Mini-DVI to Video Adapter cable to hook my macbook up to my TV. The adapter/s-video connection worked and I was able to see the video on the tv. But iphoto immediately locked up the computer when I went to slide show and now it locks every time I open it.
    Any ideas?
    Thank you:)

    It means that the issue resides in your existing Library.
    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.

  • VGA to Video adapter for a late 2004 iBOOK

    I found a free TV and thought maybe i could use it as a larger screen format. so i went searching for cable adapters.
    I did do a search here in the search query box on word search vga to video and results show related to clam shell versions.
    while looking around the Apple web site for a VGA to Video adapter for a iBOOK G4 that shows a CPU speed of 1.2 GHz and a designation of PowerBook6, 5 yes that is how it is written in the System Profiler 'PowerBook6, 5'.
    Using a tape measure the screen itself with out the plastic frame shows a width of 9.5 inches , including the plastic frame shows: 11 and one quarter, that could round off to 12 inch even though it is not at or beyond the point 5 mark.
    The original paper work is some where ?.
    I found a VGA adapter that could possibly work at
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/M9109G/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY#overview
    yet the wording states: The video adapter cable plugs into the video output port (mini-VGA) built into the back of the computers listed in the compatibility section below.
    Compatible with:
    iBook without an external reset button, eMac, iMac G5, or 17-inch iMac (1GHz) with mini-VGA port.
    does not say much for the laptop.
    There is shown a VGA adapter for the iBook here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2721?viewlocale=en_US
    yet finding it at the store ???
    if i copy the part number in a search query at the store the results show a Lexmark copy machine.
    I found many DVI adapters at:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/M9319G/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY#overview
    And then here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TA27124?viewlocale=en_US
    as copied and pasted here:
    The Apple Mini-DVI to S-Video/Composite Adapter does not work with PowerBook G4 (12-inch) computers,
    the one thing i have notice is that no compatibility charts actually show support for the 1.2 GHz iBOOK G4.
    I also see that there are Mini DVI to VGA adapters, Mini ?, does mention pin numbers ??.
    I was wondering if i could crossover the DVI to VGA thru the adapters using VGA and DVI cables, yet pin numbers and compatibility questions still remain.
    Suggestions ?
    Thank you.

  • Bought video adapter for orig ipad, it does not fit

  • Connecting a Video Adapter

    I have a iMac G4 and I am trying to connect the computer to a 50" Samsung Plasma TV so that it can be used by the visually impaired. When I plug my Video Adapter cable in to the computer and connect it to the TV the TV searches for a signal, and then says no signal. How can I make it so that what's on my computer screen is seen on my TV screen? Thanks.

    Justin, Welcome to the discussion area!
    Which iMac G4 do you have? The iMac G4 700 MHz and iMac G4 800 MHz are not compatible with the Apple video adapter M9109G/A.
    If you have one of those, you will need Apple's VGA Display Adapter M8639G/A. This provides a VGA output. If your TV does not have a VGA input, you will also need another device called a scan converter. The scan converter converts VGA to analog video.

  • Apple Mini DVI to Video Adapter - do you need cables as well?????????????

    Apple Mini DVI to Video Adapter
    i have this already,but do i need a certain cable to go into the TV. as it only has one port instead of the usual 3 av leads have???
    help please,confused...............

    Look in your question and you'll find the answer...
    Apple mini DVI to Video Adapter
    ...the usual 3 av (audio/video) leads...
    DVI is video only so you only need one port... if you were hooking up audio and video you'd need three (1 for video - 2 for the left/right audio channels)

  • DVI to Video Adapter and S-Video Cable = Flipping TV Screen

    Hello!
    I attached my DVI & S-Video Cable to my television. Everything was fine, except when choosing different display resolutions, the TV screen would start flipping.
    THEN:
    • I removed the DVI to Video Adapter from the computer while it was still plugged into the TV.
    Now, no matter what I have tried, I get a TV screen that flips.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
    Thank you!
    Jeff

    S-Video is the better of the two interfaces. Neither is very good when compared with a computer screen, which will have much higher resolution. I doubt you will notice much difference between S-Video and RCA Video but if you have the choice you might as well go S-Video.

  • Apple DVI to Video adapter M9267G/A and extension cable

    Will the Apple DVI to Video adapter M9267G/A work with this cable?

    Also, is it safe to "hot plug" the adapter, or should I only plug it in when the Mac is off?
    I bought the adapter used with no documentation, and couldn't find any setup instructions on Apple's downloads page.
    Thank you.

    Hi-
    So you're trying to extend the reach of the adapter? Closer to TV, VCR, etc.?
    Seems like it should work, though I would personally get a long S-video/composite cable. Cheaply constructed DVI extensions can cause a loss of signal strength, and/or pick up RFI and result in poor performance.
    It would be safe to hot plug the adapter itself, though I would not power on the attached devices until after connected to the adapter.

  • New imac to tv help:  mDVI to DVI cable, DVI to component video adapter?

    I am getting my new imac tomorrow, very excited. I would love to be able to hook it up to my HD tv which has component video inputs.
    It has two by the way, one says component video, one says component video HD. (that's the one my xbox is hooked up to.)
    I think I'm getting like 1020p or something like that?
    am aware of the lack of sound, but will have the imac hooked up to speakers so no worries on that.
    will this chain work? mDVI-DVI cable, DVI to component video adapter? then what? component video cable to tv?
    so I will need to buy two adapters and one cable right? Also, the cable is gonna need to be about 30ft long so will I be able to daisy chain cables?
    PS, what kind of resolution will I be getting with the standard (none component HD) inputs?
    thanks for the help. The info on the mac sight about adapters in not very specific to this hodge podge.

  • What s-video cable for a DVI to S-Video adapter

    Hi,
    I have an old MiniG4 lying around, which I thought I'd make into a media centre.
    I bought the Apple DVI to Video Adapter (<http://store.apple.com/us/product/M9267G/A>) which is specifically for a Mac Mini and I thought that I had an s-video cable too, but clearly I have the wrong one.
    The cable I have, has a single plug at one end and the red/white/yellow plugs at the other end. The single plug is a headphone-jack style, but with 3 yellow connector 'stripes' instead of the usual 2 black ones, but this plug doesn't fit in the DVI Adapter's yellow socket. It's too wide.
    Can anyone tell me what cable I need to work with the DVI Adapter? Should it be 2 plugs to 3, or 1 plug to 3? (I'm in Europe, if that changes anything)
    (Why don't Apple tell you what you need on the product page at the Apple store???)

    Thanks for the replies.
    I found the correct cables ... really dumb that Apple sell adapters but doesn't tell you what is required for them to work.
    Anyway, it works really well. I was surprised at how good the output is. Just like the original DVD. The only place I can see any artefacts is on a totally black screen. Should it be of interest to anyone else reading, I used Handbrake on preset AppleTV but with FFMPEG instead of H624 (which took incredibly long to encode) and choosing to maintain aspect ratio and 100% quality.
    I'm also using the iPhone to control via Apple's 'Remote' iPhone app and I bought 'Rowmote' as well, which gives more control.
    The G4 Mini is the 'stealth' version, the last one they made with a slightly faster processor and a more capable video card. It's adequately powerful for running the movies and acting a media hub.
    All in all, I'm quite happy.
