Video Input Tecra S2

How can I put on a Video input on my Tecra S2. I want to play Xbox 360 in HD on my Notebook. Is that possible? Maybe there is a dockingstation or something like that.
Hope someone can help me

Hi
I agree with Jaba. Your unit has no video input port like some newer units and you will not be able to use notebook display for something like that.
I believe that the only solution can be some external device that can transfer the picture into notebook using USB port or even PCMCIA card. For example I have connected my VHS recorder to my older Portege using Pinacle studio xxx. Sorry but I can not remember the right name of this hardware part.
Bye

How to connect Apple TV (2g) HDMI to HDTV with only component video input.

Trying to connect Apple TV (2g) HDMI to HDTV with only component video input. Can I use a simple cable or do I need a converter box/plug? Is the HDMI signal coming from ATV encrypted or HDCP enabled?
The TV is HD, but only has a component input and not HDMI. Apple TV 2g only has HDMI output.

google component hdmi converter
but they are pretty expensive and may not work at all
and will not work with any DRM material as in movies you reant and maybe netflix and the sports thingy

How can I connect my iPad to a TV that only has an s-video input available but also has a usb port on the satellite box available.

I would like to connect my iPad to my older TV but the only inputs available are the s-video input port on the TV itself and there is also a USB input port on the satellite box that feeds the TV. I could also split all the RCA jacks to accomodate another input here. Thanks in advance for any and all help with this problem of mine..............RR.

There is no s-video cable available for any iPad.
The USB port on the cable box is for maintenance use only.
There are RCA cables available:

Please help! Not able to set Video input Port(S-Video or Composite)on Linux

Hi
I am using JMF2.1.1e(Linux performance pack) for video capturing on Linux OS. I want to set video input port(S-Video or composite) through my application. I am using the following code:
     if ( dataSource != null )
          arrControls = dataSource.getControls ();
     if ( arrControls != null )
          nCount = arrControls.length;
     System.out.println("No. of Controls: " + nCount);
     for ( i = 0; i < nCount; i++ )
          if ( arrControls[i] == null )
               continue;
          if ( !(arrControls[i] instanceof Control) )
               continue;
          componentControl = ((Control)arrControls).getControlComponent ();
          System.out.println("ComponentControl : " + componentControl);
          if ( componentControl == null )
               continue;
But, i am getting No. of Controls: 0 (Zero). So i am not able to get any control component also. Rest of the application is working fine. Please help me solving this problem.
Thanks in advance.

To go a stage further.
Google run a Jabber server for their service.
Jabber apps (those that can) use a Protocol called Jingle to make the A/V connections.
Google's version is not even that compatible with other Jabber apps. (See Here)
The Plug-in in the Google Install (Or the Standalone Web Browser Plug-in allow Browsers to access the GoogleTalk A/V side as does the Standalone PC app called GoogleTalk as well.
iChat uses a process called SIP (Session Initiation Protocol) to connect to other iChat Users or to the AIM for PC app.
However this also works in any iChat to iChat Connection no matter if the Buddy List is an AIM Login based one, Jabber (including GoogleTalk) or A LAN based Bonjour Chat.
In you care this is not going to work.
Getting the Standalone (Intel only) Browser Plug-in and using the Chat option in the Google Mail Web page is probably the easiest option.

MSI R7870 TWIN FROZR 2GDS - cant detect monitor. (no signal/no video input)

I already post this before, but it seem it being blocked as I didnt have the genuine window. (https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=162310.msg1189334#msg1189334)
Fine by me. Now I alrdy have a genuine window and the problem still occur.
I already test both the hdmi and the dvi but the result still the same. still no signal or no video input. And I also test the desktop on other monitor and the result problem pointed at the graphic card.
And as stated in my previous topic, when I remove the graphic card can connect the monitor through the hdmi on the mother board it work fine.
Here some spec of my desktop.

Hope you guys can help me solve this problem. Thank you.

as long as you take all the cables out one by one carfully without more then a few pounds of force with a slight wiggle as they come up its not that hard to do then take the whole PSU and the gpu to your friends house to see if it works
hell if you dont want to plumb the whole unit into his rig on the main 20/24 pin connector find the green cables pin and any neer by black ground cable and jump your psu with a paperclip in the wholes and just connected to your graphics card in his case and psu outside his case to only power your card and flip the power switch to turn it on quite easy (10 mins to do max)!

MiniDisplay Port for Video input on macbook pro?

Can I use my macbook pro`s MDP for video input? Wanna use my Belkin HDMI to MDP.
MBP (Late 2010 model)

No. The mini-DisplayPort on a MacBook is output only. from the MBP to a display or other device.

Em28xx:cross row noise only with S-video input

The nice thing about Linux is that every step you make, behind the corner there is always a surprise.
The surprise today is this:
I have two versions of Arch Linux installed, both updated to the state of art. One with the last driver em28xx of linuxtv.org (rev 13044) for PCTV USB2 and the other with the driver em28xx-new-hg 0.20090409-1 downloaded from AUR for the card Terratec Cinergy XS.
In both systems, the operation is perfect with both analog TV and composite video input.
If, however, capture from s-video in both systems appear horizontal lines that occupy the entire screen the width of ten pixels. The visibility of these lines depends very much on the underlying color. With the blue are very visible.
Note that in both systems have also installed windows that gives me very good results even for the S-video.
Changing the format of capture in mplayer and v4l-ctl2 in every way possible does not affect whatsoever the problem.
Is there any Guru em28xx that can give me a hand?
Thanks

The Sony GV-D200E is supposed to have a firewire out on it. Can't you just capture from that? Also, the Sony specs say that besides firewire it also has a composite video output. I would think that would be plenty good enough for hi-8 footage. I doubt very much if you would see any difference at all between that and the S-video given the source is hi-8.
If can't do any of that, does your miniDV cam have a "pass-through" feature? Most Canon's have it. Anyhow, depending on how it works you may be able to run the proper lines from the Sony unit into your DV unit while passing right through it into the puter. I don't think CS4 will do a live capture, so you may need to capture with WMM instead. If nothing else you can probably record from the Sony to your miniDV and then pass that on to the computer.
Good Luck

Vox S-Video input is black and white

After a few issues, my Vox is up and running. The picture quality is disappointing on the TV broadcasts but of more issue for me is a problem with the S-Video input.
The main reason I bought this was to capture old videos and transfer them to DVD. I have a scart lead attached to the back of the VCR with S-Video, Composite Video and Audio phono plugs on the other end. Using the composite video phono plug the picture is fine and I can capture the video. If I swap to use the S-Video plug (my preference as the quality should be better) it comes through in black and white. However, if I plug the S-Video and audio phonos into a television, the picture is fine.
Has anyone experienced this or have any ideas what might be wrong?
Thanks,
Andrew.

Hi Andrew. I have the same problem. Have you found a way round the problem?

S-Video Input

Hey guys!
I would like to replace my current Intel Pentium 4 PC and cannot decide if I should get an iMac or build a PC. Anyways, I am not going to ask that here since I know what the outcome is going to be.
What I would like to know is if the iMac supports S-Video input via an adapter / splitter like most PC video cards with VIVO do. The reason why I need this is that I have a DVB-C receiver which I would like to use with my computer because currently, I don't have a TV. I know that I could buy something like the Elgato eyeTV if I needed S-Video, but that would be too expensive right now and also a waste of money because I only need the S-Video input - no need for a TV tuner or the ability to record shows.
Seb

There is no video input on an iMac. The only way to get video into an iMac is through Firewire or USB.

Video Input

Just a question about video input on iMacs. Is there any other way to get video input from an Xbox or another gaming console without having to but Elgato products? Why hasn't apple made a 19.99 input adapter to handle S-video or component input just like they have for video output?
Thanks

No video input for external devices on iMac 24" display???

I got a 24" iMac a few days ago and love this thing. (Was in PC **** for last 30 years...) But one thing I am disappointed in is that there appears to be no video input to display video or to video capture. Is the only way to display video from an outside source by using a USB video capture device? For example, if I have a cable box or game console I want to display on the monitor, how can I do that? Seems silly to need to use a capture device to simply display video. Please let me know if there is simple way to do this. Thanks!

I don't see how using a camcorder would help especially although it would be technically possible to use it as a bridge between other devices I can't see how it would be worth your while.
Obviously not speaking from experience since almost all if not all DV cameras have passthrough, and feed video into a mac via firewire from the analog audio and video input port on the DV camera. They have been used for ages as decks (and are many times cheaper than DV decks) and as converters vs. buying a Canopus box etc., which are basically the same thing.
The EYE TV 250 does the same thing with a USB connection and its own software but for the myriad of DV cam owners the passthrough is a fine idea.

Video input/ iMac display as monitor

Hello everybody,
I have got a feature request for future releases of the iMac series. I think I would not be the only one appreciating a solution to use an iMac's display as monitor for other computing devices such as the Mac mini or older PC-hardware. In my opinion this video input would not have to be more than another little port at the back of an iMac. This could be solved with a mini-port like it is now with the mini-DVI.
When trying to find a way to use my iMac that way I only found this vnc solution which requires a network connection between both devices but I also found many posts asking for a solution like my proposal.
Please let me know what you think of it! Thanks in advance!

It's not that easy. Providing a direct input to the monitor would require quite a bit of additional circuitry. I think that the cost of providing such in input would be unjustifiable when considering the small percentage of iMac buyers who would use such a feature. But you can suggest it to Apple here:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/imac.html
For a workaround, perhaps Screen Recycler would work for you.

Does apple have any products to facilitate video input on iMac 27"?

I want to input video to my iMac 27". I assume you can add a display port video card to a pc, what about VGA and hdmi support? Has apple addressed this? I know there was the belkin av360, apple doesnt like It anymore?

The iMacs support Video Input since iMac mid 2009 i have Play Station 3 connected on my new 27" iMac mid 2011. Im using the Belkin's HDMI to MiniDisplay Port Adaptor (It is only posibble to use the "DisplayTargetMode" from iMac-OtherMac, you have just to press cmd+f2) For all the other devices you will need an Adaptor cuz' otherwise u won't be able to input at all, or you will not be able to use High Resolution hope this helped ppl, gl.
