Happy to find any solution to this including an HDMI splitter box, mac mini solution, anything from Matrox or Blackmagic design, or if it is more cost effective even buying a new imac if it can output two video signals at the same time. So basically I wish to feed the same computer output images via mini DVI to two HDMI projectors simultaneously.

iMac, Mac OS X (10.5.8)
Does anyone know if the new mac mini models have multi-channel audio out on the HDMI port? or any audio out for that matter?
This has been lacking on the optical audio output of the older models and would rock if it now has this feature.
Can the new MAC mini output sound over HMDI. I have an older mini with DVI and it cannot output sound so I am considering buying a new one if sound is supported.
Info:
Mac mini, iOS 5.1
I upgraded my Mac Mini to Lion. When I go to the sound output, I still have two options:
* Headphones (Headphone port)
* marantz-AVR (HDMI)
When I select the Marantz, it highlights in blue momentarily and then slides back to Headphones. It does not stay on the Marantz. I've restarted both units, unplugged cables, and the same. What do I do now? And, yes, everything worked perfectly just before my Lion upgrade.

I have a 17" unibody MBP (most current version) with 10.6.4, and I downloaded the recent firmware updates for the MBP's. Before I did this, the mini port to HDMI video/audio output was working perfectly, I could watch anything right off my MBP. After installing the updates, when I plug in the cable, my MBP flickers, goes blue, and then comes back, but the TV does not detect the signal from the laptop. In the Display and Sound menus in System Preferences, there's no option to set up a second display like there was before.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI've installed a Mac Mini (unibody) on a friend's boat and have the display output through the HDMI port througha distribution amp to 3 TVs. I have been having resolution difficulties though. When the display is output this way (split three ways) the resolution does not fit the displays, and there is no means to change it to a setting where it will fit the TVs. All TVs are full-HD and 1080p. The screen expands outside of the viewable area.

Ever since I installed to 10.6.1, I have been having issues with WiFi.
I'm only getting 3 bars, and my iMac is sitting less then a foot away from my AEBS, on 10.6 I was getting 4, also I've been dropping my WiFi connection every hour or so, and I have to turn AirPort in on my iMac off and turn AirPort back on.
This is really annoying and I don't know what to do, anyone have any ideas?
I've already reset my AEBS twice and that hasn't worked.
When I tried to power it on, it didn't work. There was no startup chime, but power controller was lighting. There was nothing on a display, it only flashed for a second but then nothing.. Apple on the backside doesn't lights.Then I connected it to an external display but it only said "no signal" or something else. I also tried to do this

View 1 Replies View RelatedI try to connect my projector Benq mp625p and MacBookPro(late 2008) via HDMI(adapter + cable). And projector tells me(on the screen): HDMI Out of Range. And, of course, MacOs doesn't see any external monitor. I think it is because, by default, MacOs wants to make mirror on the second screen, but max. projector resolution is XGA(1024x768). How can I turn off mirroring before the second monitor will be connected? But maybe problem isn't in just mirror display.
Additional Info VGA, S-video, Composite connection works great. And HDMI cable with adapter are 100% good(I have tryed them before on two plasma panels). Additional Info I've tried to connect this projector in BootCamp WinXP (on the same MacBook), and first time it didn't work, but when I set: Expand Desktop on the second screen everything began work properly!
I recently purchased a projector and I want to use my Macbook Air to display presentations via my projector. With PC, I think I used "F8". How do I on Mac?

Have it hooked up to creature speakers, which never had an issue before. Sometimes if I fix disk permissions (which disk utility points out but never really fixes) and zap the PRAM, after a few restarts the audio will work. But right now mac mini is acting like it isn't connected to its speakers. Even the internal one. The previous owner did upgrade the RAM to 3 gigs...

I have an older 24" iMac (mid 2007) that I believe has a mini DVI port. I need to get video from my editing program out to a HDMI monitor. Would a DVI to HDMI be a cheap solution without having to get an expensive matrox IO box?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI purchased a mini display port to HDMI. I attached the HDMI end into the back of my TV in the HDMI input 2 section. Then I attached the other end of the mini display port into the back of my IMac desktop. Nothing is happening. I went online to follow directions which told me to go into my 'System Preferences', then click 'Display' and then click the 'Arrangements' tab that would appear. However no arrangements tab appears. Did I buy the right cord?

Soo...I just picked up a mini to run plex and use as a media center. Hooking it up to my projector via VGA cable. When I set the display settings to the native resolution on the projector there is a small black line or bar down the left hand side of the screen. Not on the right but only on the left. why this would be happening?

if i buy the mini display port to dvi adapter, could i use it with a dvi to hdmi cable for my monitor. This is because the dvi and vga ports are already taken up.

View 3 Replies View RelatedAnybody knows any HDMI ExpressCard34 output?
I've googled it without any luck, I need it to passthrough Video along with Audio, all in only one single cable, and also to get DTS-MA, Dolby TrueHD... (if available) and those signals that cannot be transmitted through an optical output jack.
I can not get HDMI video output through FCP-X 10.1.3. I tested the card and I get video through it to my HDMI monitor using Blackmagic Media Express, so I know the card, monitor, and cable are in perfect working condition. I have windows>AV output selected in FCP-X, but can not get a signal through. I think it is a bug, and a major one at that. I really need this for color grading and to properly view my actual clips.

What is the best PCI/PCI-e card for the new 8-core Mac Pro, which allows routing of both the Video and Audio output to be routed thru 1 HDMI cable ?
I've seen the Intensity Pro from Black Magic
Is there another card better suited for outputting audio+video via 1 HDMI cable on a new 8-core Mac Pro ?
So I have a ATI Radeon HD 4870 on my Mac Pro and a 26" HDTV and I want to use it as my second display and utilize it's speakers (to watch movies while I work). Can I send audio through a mini display port to HDMI connector from this card or will i have to buy a secondary cable to plug into the audio out jack? Also are there syncing concerns with the two connections (hdmi and auto cable)
View 5 Replies View RelatedI picked up a MBP 15" core i7 high res laptop on Friday. I actually ordered one of those mini displayport -> HDMI awhile back (was going to get a mini, decided no), however when I hook it up to my plasma it won't adjust the resolution to 1920 x 1080, I checked "display" in system settings but it won't let me push it past the native resolution of the laptop screen.
Any suggestions how to get around this? Also it mentions on the website it can push sound over HDMI now, I wasn't able to figure that out either.
I've got an issues with my HDMI output - most of the time when I connect to my tvs the laptop doesn't display anything on the tv (although its detected) my tv's just say searching.
Other times it works fine. Does anyone know what I can do about this or is a repair job?
I have a Mac Pro 1,1 and was wondering if there is a video card with an HDMI output that will work with it, or am I stuck with a doorstop that I can't upgrade?
View 2 Replies View RelatedSo i just bought a Dell u2410 screen the other day, and decided to hook it up via HDMI, It's being used for photo-editing, I tried to calibrate it, but in the sRGB mode i need to use the colours come out terrible, Reds are orange, etc. The screen itself, and it's settings arn't the problem. The problem is the Colour output of the MacBook, over HDMI and DisplayPort I've found it outputs the old YPbPr colour format, which for me is useless. if i connect it via VGA it'll output proper RGB colour format, but VGA is pretty crappy, and i ideally need to use a Digital output, I've searched all over the net for a solution, but haven't found one. one thing i did find is it will supposedly output RGB over DVI, but alas i don't have a DVI cable and do not wish to have to buy one...so what i want to know, is it possible to change the output colour format for HDMI and DisplayPort to RGB instead of YPbPr? Note 1: If i boot into Win7 via BootCamp it outputs RGB and has the option for YPbPr... Note 2: It isn't the ICC colour profile that's the problem.
