Video Output No Longer Works

I'm running FCP 4.5 on OS version 10.4.2.
After installing the latest itunes with video (not sure of that's related, but it's the last system change I've had) I have not been able to display firewire video out.
I'll start FCP, my deck (Sony GV-D1000) will go from blue screen to black (this is good and normal), then when the FCP workspace starts to build it'll swap back over to blue screen. Every setting indicates it clips should be displaying out like it's done in the past, but nothing happens. Stranger still, I can go to capture footage and the capture window and deck are in perfect synch-- I can control the deck fully through the keyboard and FCP's interface and see the footage both onscreen and on-deck.
Any idea why I lose control when I exit capture mode? No printing to tape, scrubbing through clips, etc.
I've had this problem before, and a quicktime upgrade fixed it. That was before I switched to Tiger. It has worked fine with Tiger until now.
I've been up and down the QT ladder doing installs, reinstalls, etc. but nothing seems to help. I trash my prefs each time before running too.
Any other thoughts on how to fix this?
Thanks-
Jason

This is a "forces at a distance" suggestion. If you happen to have Garage Band installed, start it up, then close it down. Then re start your computer and try to see if you can get playback via the Sony in FCP. I do not claim to know why this works, but it does for many folks with camera issues, such as yours. I am guessing that Garage Band gets to control and then clear access to the video signal. QT has video access ergo......see I do not really know.

S-Video output no longer works under 10.4.7, iBook G3 700MHz

Before the 10.4.7 update, I would have to put the OS to sleep and when I brought it back, it would recognize that there was a TV connected as opposed to a VGA display. Now after the update, no matter how many sleeps or reboots I do, I only get the settings for an external VGA monitor.
Has anyone had and fixed this problem? What can I do?
Thanks,
Justin

Did you repair permissions after the update?
Have you tried resetting the PMU?

Siliconmotion video driver no longer working

Updating xorg broke the siliconmotion video driver - the new module no longer works with my hardware - an asus laptop. I have to use vesa at 16. In previous incarnations I was able to fall back or build direct from xorg but the previous versions no longer work either (after also updating my desktop which uses nv - I believe it is because of the new hotplugging because the old nv module would start but would lose all input functionality) (but I see you actually now support the nv module so I no longer have to build my own).

On the issue of Lion, and the XLR8 devices?
Apple did change a number of items, that limited the XtraView's ability (this is the one, with the built-in audio on the older 2820 chipset). Audio, just won't work in 64-bit mode.
The easy workarounds are to boot into 32-bit mode (hit 3 and 2) on boot.
To check if you are in 64 bit mode, go to the System Profiler (Apple Menu > More Info > Software (left pane) and see if the 64 bit is loaded.
If in 32-bit mode you are still having an issue, please check that you are running XLR8 version 1.4.6. You can download new versions at http://XLR8.com.
You can email XLR8 for a free audio cable (Mac sound jack to RCA audio), or for $25, XLR8 can upgrade you to the new 2860 device that works in 64-bit mode.
Now, that hopefully, we have you working again... about Daystar. Actually XLR8 has always developed, built and shipped the devices. Daystar just had a bigger name and was an Apple Authorized Reseller. But, the Apple relationship ended, and Daystar closed.
XLR8, LLC will continue to support the devices and we will continue to provide great products and good support (sorry, we are a small company, and due to limited time... I can only provide "good" support. Maybe one day, it will be great.)
We are expanding the website at XLR8.com. You are always welcome to provide feedback and suggestions.
Oh, and lastly, thanks to Thiago, for sending me an email, and alerting me to the thread...

Video capture no longer working with Lion

Does anyone know why USB video capture (XLR8 USB 2.0) would no longer capture audio with Lion. It worked great at importing old VHS home movies to my Mac before the upgrade to Lion and now, while I can still see the video, I no longer hear audio. Anyone have any ideas?

White Macbook (Early 2009) Why mini-DVI to S-video adapter no longer works?

I am a lifelong Mac user and by now think I pretty well know the ins and outs of Macs and most Mac-related issues... but this one has stumped me.
The new white Macbook was upgraded to include many of the components of its big brother unibody Aluminum Macbooks (including 1066 MHz frontside bus and the NVIDIA 9400M) just over a week ago. I was lucky enough to be in the market for a new laptop about this time and snatched one up a few days ago (retiring my awesome 12" Aluminum PowerBook G4 which is still kicking).
One of the main reasons I upgraded was to be able to use Silverlight 2.0 (d--- Microsoft) as I can't watch streaming lectures from school without it. A nice bonus would be the ability to stream Netflix videos to my TV through my laptop which I've wanted to do for a while. Anyone who has bought one of these new Macbooks and uses their laptop with their TV as much as I do has probably read one of these two links:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3413
http://store.apple.com/us/product/M9319G/A?mco=MzE2OTkzMA
Note the asterisk at the Apple store: "* This adapter is not compatible with the 2.0GHz Intel Core 2 Duo white MacBook introduced in January 2009."
Can someone tell me why this is? I've been using the s-video out of my Apple laptops for the past 6 years... why change it now? Is this a temporary problem or permanent change?
I have been fervently searching for a work-around but no blogs, forums, or boards have given me any answers. One tech blogger at http://createdigitalmotion.com/2009/01/22/white-macbook-snubs-adapter-i-want-my- tv-out/ speculates that Apple is cracking down on DRM video being watched on TV's... but that makes no sense, any new TV can use the DVI output still supported by this computer.
Dear Apple: PLEASE give me my TV back!!! I want to watch Netflix and use that cool Front Row feature you put in your system!

Thank you for your helpful and detailed response, Ziatron. I am aware Apple is unlikely to peruse my forum post, I was just crying out in anguish at the gods that be, so to speak.
Everything you wrote is consistent with what I have read in other places, thanks for consolidating it here. I am not as proficient in display technologies as I am in other areas so let me see If I am understanding you correctly. Apple has licensed HDCP technology and is employing it across its desktop and laptop lineups. The new white MacBook was the last of the MacBook lineup to be upgraded to include this new technology and as it still retains the older Mini-DVI out rather than the new Mini-Displayport Apple had to "flip the switch" and turn off the MacBook's ability to put out video through the old adapter. I notice that there is no Mini-Displayport to video adapter available in their store. Am I good so far?
So I am left to assume that they turned off the capability of outputing to s-video because that output cannot be managed by the new HDCP technology, correct? If so, I suppose I understand but am still frustrated as it seems they are prevent the growth of a few weeds (illegal content) by burning the whole lawn (preventing many such as me from using the output I love). Thanks for your help again.

Video ichat no longer working with a new ISP

Hiya, I have read pages and pages of these posts and I am still none the wiser. I used to be able to video ichat with my old ISP but I can't with my new one. Audio and text work fine.
I have changed my quicktime streaming settings
I have disabled my firewall
I have gone to portforwarding.com and done the port forwarding thing (I think, I am not that technical)
I am using a fixed IP - my airport is using 192.168.7.3, my DSL router 192.168.7.1
I can ichat video fine from work (as long as it's not to my wife when she is at home)
I have tried to ichat to other people who have ichated succesfully to their friends
I have called my ISP and they assure me that no ports are being blocked
I am using the latest version of Tiger and ichat on a brand new MacBook Pro (wow this thing is fast), but my older Powerbook laptop can't connect either.
Can anyone help?
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.6) ichat 3.1.4

Hi Russell,
Most of the devices listed here can be made to work with iChat
http://portforward.com/routers.htm
However I would tend to stick to the bigger names.
AT this stage MIMO and Pre-N devices (the ones with the extra antennas and the ones trying to predict the 802.11N wireless protocol) as iChat seems to have soem problems with them.
Things like the Linksys WRT54G has routing and UPnP capabilities. The Netgear DG834G and it's variants are also popular. (D-Links seem to be a bit odd as set ups vary and they do not always have UPnP)
Thomson/Alcatel Speedtouch devices need to be on Version 4 firmware (No higher than 4.2.9) and not Version 5 or 6 (or the 4.3.x version that is really version 5 re-written for earlier devices). These Alcatels need the SIP Unbound from port 5060 that I was talking about.
See Mine in the white box just out of site http://www.ralphjohnsuk.dsl.pipex.com/page4.html#_text
What you have to look in to at this stage is whether the ISP is blocking port 5060 for it's own VoIP service. It it is it will not matter what modem you get.
As I said before in some cases it may be the device itself and we may be able to do soemthing about that.
http://www.ralphjohnsuk.dsl.pipex.com/page4.html#_text Scroll down to the White box with text in it.
Apple have this list http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93333
These are supposed to work Out of the Box which is not the same as Can Work with iChat.

IPad 2 HDMI output no longer works since iOS 6 was installed

Hi everyone,
I need some help here,
I have a pretty old HD TV equipped with HDMI input ports, I was able to use my iPad 2 to do Video mirroring or anything else for that matter while the iPad 2 was operation with iOS 5.1.1, since I upgraded to the iOS 6 I'm no longer able to see the ipad home screen or videos like, Netflix, YouTube, basically anything my ipad was displaying, not my TV doesn't even detects a signal.
Are there any useful information that yous can share, I'm going crazy here as my two young kids want to watch their favorite show on Netflix through the big TV.
This has caused some discomfort and I wish I can find some help to fix it.
I appreciate your help.

I have an ipad 2 running ios 6.0.1 and an older Dell TV (1080i) and have always been able to mirror. Running ios 5 the mirroring worked perfectly for sound and video. Don't remember if I tried while running 5.1. Now that I have 6.0.1, I can still mirror, but the whole screen is pink on this Dell TV. When I make the connection from ipad to the tv, mirroring starts immediately and the notification bar on the ipad home screen pulsates from blue to black and the cable is detected. I have sound and video working fine except for the colors. The ipad detects the AV Composite cable under settings>about but there is no TV out setting under General Settings where I'm supposed to see TV OUT listed under iTunes Wi-Fi sync. I have changed the hdmi to a new one, but it didn't help. I also have a new Panasonic Viera tv and everything (with the same cables) works perfectly on that TV. Leads me to believe it's an issue with the TV OUT function of the ipad. I don't know if any of this is helfpul information, but I thought it might help you narrow down what is going on with your setup.

Driod 4 - once I make a video and upload to fb the video is no longer working on my phone

I have the Droid 4 and out of nowhere this issue just started. When I take a video and then upload it to facebook, the video no longer becomes viewable on my phone. An error message occurs saying it is no longer to be viewed (along those lines). The video is viewable until it is 100% uploaded on facebook. We've uninstalled and re-installed fb, got a new SD card and a performed a factory reset. Still, it doesn't work Again, I take a video, upload it on fb and then can't view it on my phone. However, you can still view it on facebook.
Anyone else???

You may have debris in your headphone jack blocking the sensor. Try blowing hard on the jack, and inserting/removing your headphones quickly multiple times to clear it.

Video Podcasts No Longer Work on my 2nd (3rd?) Gen. iPod Touch!

Okay, I'm not really sure if I actually have a 2nd or 3rd generation iPod touch. It's a 8 GB, and I bought it in November of 2009 or so. I'm guessing it's a 2nd generation since it stopped updating after iOS 4.2.1. Now with that out of the way, onto the real question....
There was a new iTunes version a few days ago, so I went ahead and updated that. Ever since, I have had difficulties with any new VIDEO podcasts that I download. I cannot sync them onto my iPod at all. Audio podcasts work just fine, but video podcasts do not. I have literally tried everything - restoring my iPod, deleting and re-downloading the podcasts, and even re-installed iTunes completely. I figure that it might have something to do with the file type of the videos, but I would've gotten an error message if that had been the case. I am extremely puzzled. Please advise.

No one?

S-video output does not work with iOS5.1.1 via ipod dock

Anyone else experience same problem?

Anyone got a workaround?

Audio output no longer works

I have a new Mac Mini that I got up and running about a month ago. A couple of weeks ago I installed a bluetooth device, a headset I also use with my celular phone, to use with Skype. So far so good....but when I tried for the first time to fire up GarageBand, sound output was setup to go through the headset. So in preferences -> audio output, I selected "Built-in audio". From this moment on I haven't had any audio output at all. I turned off the headset, restarted GarageBand, and got "bluetooth audio failed", tried a reboot, tried deleting the bluetooth device and turning off bluetooth, rebooting again, and still no audio. Other audio applications work fine--sound from games, media, etc. come out the built-in audio. But Garageband still is silent. In the preferences there are no more references to the bluetooth hardware in the drop-down lists for the audio devices.
Does anyone know how to fix this? I have been searching the discussions and Apple knowledge base artices for a while and can't find anything.
This is GB version 2.0.2 (50).
Thanks for any help!
Bill Nassauer

In the system prefs, under "Sounds", the only device listed is "built-in audio", and it's selected. I've already setup the GB prefs, and they're still fine (see my original message). I've never played with the audio midi setup, but taking a look for the first time, it looks normal--properties are shown for "built-in audio", and that's the only possible selection...nothing muted, and volumes normal...

Yoga 13 HDMI output no longer works after Windows 8.1 update

I recently updated to Windows 8.1 (big mistake!), and I am suddenly no loger able to connect my Yoga 13 to my Samsung TV through the HDMI output. When I connect the cable, the laptop screen is deactivated; the TV registers a signal, but displays a black screen with no audio. I was able to duplicate displays (even though the TV remained black), and the Screen Resolution dialogue said that no external display was detected.
I've already upgraded to all of the latest drivers, to no avail. I can't seem to find a solution on the forum or anywhere else. Anyone have an idea what the problem may be?

Ipad 1 upgraded to iOS 5, "play where left off" video function no longer works, and codecs aren't recognized.

for some reason after updating to iOS 5, my videos no longer play where i left off, even if i set on the settings to do so. and yes i've tried restoring again, playing video over and over. resetting the video over and over. after a while of tinkering i figured there might be something wrong with the iOS.. also the codecs say "unknown" now, weird. anyone else having these types of problems?

@bokehftw no problem.
Update:
I did my best to compare the two files i have in question. One pulled directly from my itunes library, and the other from my storage location (exact same file used to import INTO my library).
Now I admit that analyzing metadata is NOT something I claim to know how to do, but I am capable of googling some stuff and trying to figure something out.
So, unless I am missing something here, unfortunately, my findings point AWAY from the metadata thing. It seems that most of the metadata was actually stripped out of the iTunes file.
iTunes File:
Original File:
Only thing I blacked out is the name of the file in question - you will just have to trust me that it's the same exact file (except the original was used to "import" into my library and the iTunes file is literally pulled from my iTunes Media folder). Someone who is more familiar with the framework of iTunes may be able to decipher a little better - and for all I know, iTunes uses a funky way of adding it's own metadata that can't be read by third party programs (like Media Info - which is what I used).
Ah well, back to square one. If anything, I hope this gets others with more experience/knowledge involved on the subject.
And on a final note (related to the initial problem) I've also noticed that since iOS5, editing my "info" tabs on my media files (read "movie" files - not music) directly on my idevice, I've noticed it's hit or miss if it actually sticks. Prior to 5, I had no problems adding info (such as Artist, album, etc.) and having it show up that way. Now, the filename itself changes, but the additional information is now no longer shown. wierd.

Ipod 80GB Video will no longer work on sonic impact V55 player

Sonic Impact has a message that due to an Apple software change I must purchase a Composite Video Cable for the video to work on the V55 player. The apple rep at the Genius Bar said this cable will not work since it has three cable to connect and the V55 has a single AV connector. How can I make my player work?

I even tried the RAM extension trick..MUST be YouTube..
