Product Description The iPod Compatible 3.5mm to RCA Audio/Video Cable allows you to play music, photos, and video from your iPod through your home entertainment system. Using your iPod's headphone jack to get audio and video out to your stereo or television frees up your dock connector allowing you to charge your iPod at the same time.
Good for small screens.August 22, 2010 Jeffrey J. Pelaez(New Mexico) Good for very small screens (5 -7 inches) but terrible for larger screens as the picture quality distorts. Could just be the mp4 format of movies that is designed for smaller screens like ipods.
Wish I had read description closerAugust 2, 2010 Scott E. Darpel(Cleveland, OH, USA) I misread the description.....I read greater than OS 2.2....I bought two of these. One for my iPhone, one for our iPod Touch, both running the O/S 4 update. These cables don't work with either. I blame Apple more than anyone....they are SO arrogant when it comes to what accessories I can use.
That being said, who is still running an old O/S 2.2 iPhone or Touch???? Why even sell these? It's confusing to us consumers!
EXCELLENT price for a GREAT cable, and it works!July 15, 2010 Christopher Bowden(Dallas, GA United States) The item is exactly as described and worked great with my 6th Gen 120GB iPod Classic. I took back the $40 cable that I bought previously after getting this one. I especially appreciated the fact that the end of the cable has the "hooks" that hold it securely to the iPod as the $40 cable did not and kept pulling out. This cable even works with my InCase brand iPod case so that I don't have to remove my case in order to use the cable. You do have to change the settings on the iPod to send the video out, but once that's done, it's literally plug and play. At this price, I'm buying another so that I can have one in each vehicle. My only beef is that they don't sell it in black!
Arrived quickly, works greatJuly 10, 2010 D. Olney(SF, CA) Arrived just in time for a party. Primarily bought it because we were getting echoes using the headphone jack to drive a stereo. Very pleased with the music quality through the stereo with this cord. Just for fun, we have played videos through the tv. As mentioned in many other reviews, you have to turn the video output on and set to NTSC using the video options menu.
You get what you pay for....July 6, 2010 jlwalker30 I had a feeling this could be too good to be true, $6.00 for a component that is $49 and up through most places. I love the idea of playing video on my tv from my iPod....unfortunately this device didn't do the trick, it wouldn't work on my iPod touch and would only work on my classic ipod, but it has no way of charging so the battery on the iPod doesn't even last long enough to really watch a full movie. I knew there was a good chance I wouldn't get much use out of this component but for $6.00 I was willing to try. I had to go out and buy the $50.00 one after all.
