Dragon Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 Just heard on aussie tv that the new 6th gen ipod "movie ipod" (released next year) will be capable of using a tv as a display. Apple also said that they will be releasing full movies to download from itunes the day the movie is released on dvd. Sounds like fun Source = channel 9 news.

bwhsh8r Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 the new ipod. can supposedly plug into the tv and you can watch your ipod emm you mean it cant allready, because ive been doing that since I got a video one... all you have to do is get one of those like headphone jack to rgb cables and play arond with them (the colors dont match up since apple wants you to buy the seperate dock...) or do you mean like record live tv? like tivo on the go? thanks max Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vince29 Posted September 13, 2006 Share Posted September 13, 2006 you can already do that, provided you have bought an adapter, let's say... in an Apple Store ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Posted September 13, 2006 Author Share Posted September 13, 2006 adaptor compatible with nanos? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mmk Posted September 14, 2006 Share Posted September 14, 2006 Nanos don't work. Only iPod 4th gen (photo), 5th and of course 5.5(?) generation can do that. That is, connect your iPod to TV, and listen to music, watch pictures slideshows and (5th and 5.5th generation) watch movies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magicman Posted September 15, 2006 Share Posted September 15, 2006 it's called the ITV and it's a wireless device coming out in January or so...... I think the price is $299..... you can stream music, movies, and anything else from itunes to the device...... Big deal....... I just use my modded xbox with xbox media center on it and it does the same thing with a wireless network adaptor..... and I'm not limited to itunes compatible stuff.... I can play any vid file I want... Magicman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dragon Posted September 16, 2006 Author Share Posted September 16, 2006 just listen to your xbox while you're waiting for a bus? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magicman Posted September 16, 2006 Share Posted September 16, 2006 I didn't say anything about an IPOD..... The widescreen ipod is still just rumor.... The ONLY new product announced for next year is the ITV.... and you cannot take that on the bus either...... Well you could but you would look dumb..... but I guess maybe you are used to that...... * Wireless video set-top box * Available Q1 2007 * Half the size of the Mac mini, featuring: o Built-in power supply o USB o Ethernet o 802.11 "wireless component video" o Optical audio and HDMI ports o RCA stereo audio ports * Capable of playing back HDTV content * Works with the Apple Remote * User interface is like a "next generation Front Row," highly graphical featuring 3D animations * Quality looks very close to DVD, even on largescreen televisions * Can play movie trailers and other content from the Internet * Ties to iTunes on a PC or Mac * Will retail for $299 There's your information. Plus with all the video ipods (gen 5) you could watch movies on your tv with them already....... G4 or the photo ipod you could see pictures on your tv as well.... Nothing new there.....
