    This cable is great for playing movies I have on my iphone into the TV, but not for $50... It just doesn't feel like that is how much this should cost! More

    Apple Composite Cable

    Great item allows you to view your photos on a tv, listen to your ipod through a home stereo, sync the ipod and charge it either via a usb port or the included power adapter which has both a UK 3 pin plug and the euro 2 pin adapter both included, which is great when your away on holiday! The price is a little steep but when you compare the price of this pack to purchasing the parts individually (The AV lead) (An extra usb lead) (UK power adpater) (& the Euro power adapter) it's really not that bad, and Apple are not on their own for shipping goods without power adapters, I just suppose it's there way of making a little extra money off you! If you do connect this lead up to all your home entertainment system, and you wish to take your ipod away with you (But you still wish to charge it) without undoing all the wiring, remember you still have the usb cable that came with the ipod and now the choice of 2 power adapters to charge it on the move!

    AV connection from IPOD TO digital TV
    • Written by AR
    • Apr 12, 2008

    connector functions well. Image quality on large screen very pleasing. A surprising extra was I TUNES music library plays along with the picture show. It was a little tricky getting my IPOD classic "TV OUT" setting. It took me a couple of minutes getting it to display "TV OUT ENABLED" It won't work until you get that message. More

    Works with iPhone 3GS
    • Written by TK from Singapore
    • Feb 23, 2010

    I just got this connected to my iPhone 3GS and able to display videos on my TV.
    Thing to note is that the display output to TV does not show what you see on the iPhone's screen. Eg when it plays the YouTube video, the menu is still on the iPhone itself, what it shows on the TV is the video clip only.
    How I wish there is an option to show everything that I see on the iPhone on the TV too.

    For the audio output via this cable, most apps should be able to output audio. But do note that when using for phone calls, you will not hear the caller's voice via this. This configuration should be good for most people. Alternatively can use 3.5mm stereo mini-plug into the jack on the top side of the iPhone.

    It works just fine for my iPhone 3GS. sometimes when i connect it it says its not compatible with the iPhone and after clicking ok it just goes on and works. I love it and think these cables should be more widely available. More

    Works well, sort of...
    • Written by LC from STEVENAGE

    This does what it says on the box, but only when DIRECTLY connected to an iPod via the bottom port.

    I have a Universal Dock that I connect using this cable to the RCA inputs on my sound system amplifier.

    If I connect the cable directly to the iPod it works perfectly, however, if I connect the cable to a Universal Dock the output signal is so low that I have to increase the volume on the amplifier to about 3 times more! I have tried using different input ports and changing the trim levels, no good.

    I’m not a professional, but have plenty of experience with this, so I’ll do my best to explain in laymen’s terms.

    In the case of Apple's AV cables to be used with your iPod or iPhone, it's the difference in how you connect your video feed.

    Component AV consists of 3 RCA-type plugs to carry the video feed to your TV/Monitor. With this connection you are able to send the lowest form of an HD video signal (720i and maybe 720p, but I’m not positive about the ‘p’). So with this product you’ll see 5 RCA-type plugs; 3 for the video and 2 for the audio.

    Composite AV consists of a single RCA-type plug to carry the video feed to your TV/Monitor. This is the simplest form of video feed and will have 3 RCA-type plugs; 1 for the video and 2 for the audio.

    Newer TV's and Monitors often have both options available or only component, whereas the older TV's and Monitors only have the composite option available. Be sure you check out what connections are available on your specific TV.

    A number of recent firmware updates have included blocks on non-OEM (Apple) cables.

    This is an Apple cable and therefore should be fully compatible and not be blocked by the firmware updates. More

    This is the COMPOSITE cable. The sockets on your TV are COMPONENT sockets. You need to purchase the Apple Component AV Cable, which plugs into the 5 sockets you describe. More
