Hey everyone,
I have just bought a Sony Vaio AR21s, working fine, but just one small thing which has become a slight obsesseion - how do i use the AV IN 3.5mm jack on the side to connect external things such as a PS2/VCR etc.? My old Toshiba qosmio which was stolen recently left me with a Female comopsite to 3.5mm converter (shown below) and i was wondering if i could use this?
i tried attaching my ps2 through this to my vaio but i cant find ANYTHING ANYWHERE about how to access this through the software. Both staff at the sony shop and on the phone have been utterly useless; so pleaaaaaaaaaaase could someone put me out of my misery and tell me how to do it?
any help would be MASSIVELY appreciated!
The Videochipset has to support VIVO. Does your VAIO support it?
VideoIN/VideoOUT.
NVIDIAs VIVO driver are just available for Windows XP. (32bit only)
i dont know - is there anyway i can find out?
there aren't any settings in the nvidia control panel, so would it be possible to download new nvidia software to enable the port?
i find it a bit pointless to add an av in port if they arent going to let the computer use it!
thanks anyway!
hi winstonluk, i have an ar21s aswell.As far as i can tell it is only meant to be used for importing video for editing from vhs/anologue camcorders etc with click to dvd /adobe etc and cannot be used as a monitor.
Thanks for your response about this - it just leads me now to see if there is any 3rd party software that can let you view this input in a larger screen!
if not then obviously sony have missed a big one here by not including it, claiming this to be the ultimate media machine
anyone else had any experiences?
