bootcamp not working with s-video/composite adapter

Post by arianne »

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hello :-),I can't get the edirol v-4 mixer to read windows xp using bootcamp on my macbook, also I have been asking in other forums and it seems as if
the s-video-composite adapter connection does not work with boorcamp.
Is there anyone who has encountered&solved this problem or does anyone know if there is a way to get around it?

MacBook or MacBook Pro?

As far as I know it won't work on a MacBook. The video drivers on a MacBook don't support tv-out using bootcamp. It will only work on the latest MacBook Pro's with the GeForce 8600M GT chip.

Sorry. :roll:

You will probably need a vga scan converter.
