AV Adapter for iPhone only shows videos

by Andy H-3 :: Rate this Message:

Reply to Author | View Threaded | Show Only this Message

I bought an AV adapter for my iPod in the hopes it would output the display on the iPod desktop including games/apps, but it only plays the sounds from apps.  It does show videos (working as designed) but I want to see apps on the tv screen with it.

Is there a way to do this?  Anyone know of an app that works this out?

I couldn't find the article you were talking about Brendan

I just want to record the output for marketing, not sell the tech with
the app.

Thanks Brendan, and after reading it I have this to say to Apple....

Gahhh!!  I think I'm living on planet Stupider.  

There is no way to output video and interact with the touch pad - so a
clone video app is what I want...

what is wrong with this world????

I would pay $25 for that app if someone can write it.

      Okay here's what I want to do.


      I'm going to stand on a stage with my iPhone plugged into a AV
      transmitter and walk around using my app, while everyone in the
      audience can see what I am doing on the big screen projected
      behind me. I plan to walk down into the audience and let people
      play with it as well, live. I don't believe with the current
      technology that's gonna to be possible is it?

Not sure if this may help...  The guys from from Digishow had a  
handheld VGA projector at GO3 - one demo was beaming out video from an  
iPhone.

You need the Apple connector kit for it to work...

"The Apple Connector kit allows you to connect your Digishow projector  
with either the Apple iPhone or iPod.
Simply connect to your device and project both image and video."

    http://www.digishow.com.au/product_info.php?products_id=29 (Apple  
connector)

..they had sold out of connectors, so I haven't tried it with my  
iPhone.  The same connector might let you work with other gear though.

FYI, the projector comes with an RCA (female) to 2.5mm video cable,  
2.5mm to 3.5mm video cable and 3.5mm to 2.5mm converter.  It takes the  
2.5mm, which is what the Apple Connector looks to have.

They said Strathfield would be the local distributors, but nothing on  
their website yet.

Was it just video though?  The AV adapter does that already.  I need to
show my app - not video.

That's what I want - what ever is on the iPhone screen I wanna see come
out of the AV adapter.

I'd be keen to hear the results please.
