I have successfully configured my home entertainment system to play my iPod's video on the TV but I still have a problem. I would like the iPod menu to display on the TV. Right now the only thing from the iPod that will show up on my TV is iPod videos. Does anyone know how to see the iPod menu on the TV? I just got an iPod Nano (the new one that shoots video).

I have just bought an apple av conector at £30 (rip off) but am too stupid to figure out how the blue, red and green relate to the red, white and yellow on my tv. Can anyone help please?

In the previous ipod videos, you can use the RCA-to-AV cables because the video connection is found in the audio jack of the ipods. The newer ipods (Ipod classic, nano) have a new built. The video connection needed for the TV output is now found in the connecting port. There is no CHIP. I repeat, there is no special CHIP in the new ipod classic. The tv connection has just been moved from the audio jack to the connecting port. Apparently, Apple’s new Ipod Video classic and nano versions have a new hardware for the video output.

I have an 80GB iPod Video and I bought a TV AV RCA CABLE CORD on eBay to connect it to my tv. I've tried switching the jacks and putting the red into yellow and yellow into white, I've made sure the TV Out is on and still, all I can get is sound to show up. Am I doing something wrong or do I need a different cable? So I seem to have the same problem as most of these posts.

If I stopped one person falling for Apple's rip-off accessory scam it was worth it. Good to hear Charles. If I stopped one person falling for Apple’s rip-off accessory scam it was worth it.
