Fed up of watching all that great content on your iPod great but small display? Fear not! Watching your films on your TV is a simple as grabbing the right cable and reading this quick guide.
You have converted and transported your videos to the iPod, and have watched these movies on the iPod's small 3-inch screen. Now, you would like to watch those videos on your TV, and you need to find out how to connect your iPod to your TV. This writing will explain the process to you.
To start, you will need the A/V cable. Normally this will have three plugs (the colours are white, yellow and red) and consists of the 8 inch RCA cable on one end, and on the other end a 3.5mm 3-banded A/V plug. On the iPod, select "Settings", then "Videos" and then from its main menu, select "Video Settings".
You will next select one of three playback styles you desire. With a Video iPod, the playback can be done on the small built-in screen of the device itself, or the video signals can be transmitted by means of the microphone jack. One or the other method must be selected, but not both at the same time. At "TV Out" select "Yes" - for the creation of a TV signal, select "No" for playback on the iPod's screen, or select "Ask" to be prompted each time you want to play a video.
Next, select "TV Signal", here your choice will depend on the origin of your TV. For TVs in Japan and the US, select "NTSC", and for Australian and European TV sets, select "PAL".
Next the selection for screen size has to be made. The iPod's screen use 4:3 ratio, but a widescreen TV has a ratio of 16:9. So for the "Widescreen" option, choose "YES" to generate the signal for the widescreen, and select "NO" for an appropriate signal for a TV that is the traditional size.
