Iphone Tv Cable
Watching Tv And Videos Through Your Apple Iphone
Each day I set out to learn one additional thing about my new iPhone and today I discovered that I can connect my phone to my Plasma TV and run movies,podcasts,photos and lots more.
When I think back to my very first mobile phone and how primitive it was the distance cell phone technology has travelled really is quite amazing.
The first phone that I purchased was an NEC P3, and at the time, people regularly commented how small and fantastic it looked. Twenty years and billions of dollars of research, development later, and I now have the amazing apple iPhone in my pocket.
Anyway I digress lets get back to explaining the key steps required to connect your iPhone to your TV set.
First thing to do is to take a look at the back of your television set to determine which connections it has before you go shopping for the appropriate connection cable.
Turn the power off, and climb behind the back of the TV and take note what color the connectors are. If your TV is a few years old now it will probably have yellow, red and white plugs and this will mean that you will need to buy the Apple AV cable.
If your TV is new, the back will have red, green and blue connections and this means you will need to buy an Apple composite AV cable.
When you purchase either of these apple connections you will have an additional cable that accompanies them, and this is called a AC to USB adapter. The reason this AC to USB cable is crucial is that it provides power to the iPhone whilst it is playing.
Without it the battery will drain extremely quickly whilst running through your TV.
What I have chosen to do is to keep the AC to USB adapter plugged into my plasma all the time as it tucks away and is only quite slim.
Once you have plugged your iPhone into the TV through the AC adapter you need to follow the steps below.
Step One: On your home screen, you will see a small orange icon that says iPod on it. Tap on the iPod icon and a new screen appears.
Step Two: Scroll down to the bottom of the page and you will see an option that says TV out. To match the iPods display you will need to select the correct format. For example you may want to select widescreen on if you have a widescreen TV.
Step Three: Depending on which country you live in you will also need to select either the PAL or NTSC setting.
Step Four: Once you have made these key setting adjustments you will need to tap on the home button and then on the iPod icon again.
Step Five: You can then simply select the Video or podcast etc that you wish to play. Connect your TV to the iPhone and then double check that your TV is set to the correct input for your connection.
The iPhone can now serve as a remote control to play, pause and stop the video that you are watching.
There is even A WHERE I LEFT OFF option so you can resume watching a video where it last stopped.
Increasingly a good understanding of the usage deal you have on your phone is important .The right plan may even mean that it is less expensive to purchase videos through iTunes and watch them through your iPhone then the traditional way.
The other terrific thing about setting up your TV is the ability to watch mini videos of family and friend moments after returning from an event, or even to show the Grand parents.
Access FREE videos to watch via iPhone
I decided that I would search You Tube, to see any old cartoons that my son would like. Surprisingly there were full version superman, batman, and many others, so I decided to try to find a way to export them and watch them on TV via iPhone.
Tube TV is a free software program that I found that enables you to convert YouTube videos to the correct format for playback on your iPhone and then TV.
The software has a search bar and browser so that you can find videos on You Tube and other similar sites. Once you have located the movies that you are searching for
you can simply grab the url of the movie and have Tube TV export the movie to iTunes.
My iPhone education will continue tomorrow and I will write about my findings on the amazing little Apple device.
