DVD player to view on G3 powerbook?
I am trying to get my DVD/stereo player to play DVDs through my G3 Lomabard Powerbook. I have the adapter chord hooked up from the Video out to the Sout (is that what its called??). I have searched through the sparce apple help and havent found anything in the Monitors control panel to get a picture. It seems to be connected properly, since when booting up (when the DVD/stereo player is turned on) the screen goes all wierd with wavey colour bands wobbling around as it boots... OS 9.2.2, Lombard G3, RAM 320, and also OS X(Jaguar) Please help!! ~ Robert Griffin Morgan Ph; 336 4136 http://www.amitar.com.au/~morgan/tonepoet/

OK lets assume that this is I have a DVD player in my PowerBook and I want to play them through to my external screen device (TV all in one entertainment system etc etc) Sout = S out = S-Video out = this is a video out output that uses S-Video (mini DIN) plug Video: S-out you use the supplied (or if lost purchased from dick smith tandy) Svideo to RCA video adaptor Audio: stereo minipin audio jack to RCA (stereo if external supports it mono otherwise) plug'em in, turn on TV or external device, turn on computer. by default S-vido out mirrors the main screen but you can arrange it just like a standard monitor (from recollection)... Note that you can't run it through a VCR recorder first - IT must go directly to the TV/ display device (else you get the Macrovision Protection effect - this may be the squigly lines your talking about). - If you have an all in one TV/VCR you'll probably find your stuck unless you rip the DVD to hard disk with a program that removes the Macrovision protection and then play the ripped files through the unit - still don't expect anything special quality wise.

Re: CD player problem
never burn an AUDIO CD on a higher speed than the realtime length- well, on older machines.

PDF problem
Does anyone know why when I save a Finale (2001,2002 and 2003) music notation file as a pdf, the notes are thicker original? The new file is practically unreadable. Anyone experienced similar problems? Also; what is the name of that little app that saves PDFs besides the acrobat writer? A shareware one or something?? I think?

Re: G5's
Thank you DJ Grafix Design for your informative email; just the info I was looking for. As you can see from all the responses to my email, (ranging in usefulness) there is always something better around the corner. But if someone like myself are going to get a new machine (and presumably not another one for a LONG time) then it is logical to gather as much info as possible before purchasing anything. Cheers, Robbie. ~ Robert Griffin Morgan Ph; 0405 818 205 (+65 405 818 205) http://users.indigo.net.au/robbie/tonepoet/ From: DJ Grafix Design [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Wed, 18 Jun 2003 12:26:17 +0800 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: G5's on 18/6/03 10:05, Mark Secker at [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: If you wait for the next new thing you'll never ever buy a computer better to buy the next best thing rather than THE NEXT BEST thing. I purchased my PB G4 knowing that there was big news about a new PowerBook less thatn 3 months away. Now a 17 Powerbook would have been nice and I would have got it had I waited I know that I would have had 3 months of down time. Normally I completely agree with this logic. In this case though there are a couple of things that are very important that need to be taken into consideration. The PPC970 (aka G5 in Applespeak) is a 64 bit CPU. That's huge for several reasons that are long and detailed but basically (with the right OS) it'll kick the snot outta the current G4's. The redesigned motherboard and memory architecture of the new motherboards. If I were looking at purchasing a new machine I could certainly wait a few extra months for a redesigned motherboard with a much faster frontside bus than is currently available on any Mac. While waiting for the Holy Grail when it comes to computers is a losing game I do believe that there are times where it makes sense to wait for a bit.I believe this is one of those times. -- The WA Macintosh User Group Mailing List -- Archives - http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/archives.html Guidelines - http://www.wamug.org.au/mailinglist/guidelines.html Unsubscribe - mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Your use of Yahoo!
