Teedoubleudee Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 i've replied TWICE to this now to say you confusing phono plugs and headphone plugs. They are NOT the same. I included links to examples which may be why my posts have been dumped by the system.If you google "Phono plug" and then "3.3mm Jack plug" you will see the difference. The 2 or 3 bands on the jack plug are for the mono and stereo versions - 2=mono, 3=stereo. Hope that helps.I've just added another post with images Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDS Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Hi TeedoubleudeeI am not sure who you are suggesting is confusing Phono and Headphone plugs but if it is me, I can assure you, I know the difference.I am not aware though of a 3.3mm Jack Plug. I referred to insulating bands (i.e. the usually black bands between each conductor) not the conductor, on the 3.5mm Headphone plug and that is why you have two for mono and I have one etc.I referred to Phono inputs on the HD TV and an AV output. The AV output would most likely be a 3.5mm socket on the Camcorder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teedoubleudee Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Hi RDS, Firstly sorry for the typo, 3.3mm should have read 3.5mm.You said in a reply to Graskie"Does your HD TV not have Phono inputs (usually Yellow, Red and Black or White) because that should connect to your AV output (This is usually 3.5mm, same size as the socket for headphones but has an extra band on it......."They might both be a similar size but I'm sure you will agree that they look and connect totally differently. Whereas all the electrical connections on a jack plug are all on a single barrel, the phono plug has a centre barrel connecting the signal and an outer tubular (for want of a better word) connector for the ground return.Though you and I know the difference I felt your description might confuse others reading your post. Please don't take offence, I was just trying to make the difference clearer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDS Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Hi TeedoubleudeeThat's fine, I understand.I was actually meaning that the connection could be made using a Lead, with Phono's at one end (to plug into the HD TV) and a 3.5mm AV Jack Plug at the other end (to plug into the Camcorder).

poliss Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 I think I have every adaptor known to man. For camcorder to telly you can use a 3.5 mm AV Jack to 3 x RCA Adapter, if your camcorder and telly have the required sockets that is. Your TV destruction manual (which you should keep in a cabinet under the telly) will you the connections you have, and how to select the input.

walkingthedog Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 What do you do if you haven't got a cabinet under the telly poliss? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poliss Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 You make one to put the destructions in of course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
96RAF Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 I have an LG smart telly and an LG smart Blu-Ray player. I bought the same make to avoid pratting about later when I wanted them to connect. Both have WiFi direct to talk to each other, but they both ask for an HDMI connection before they can do that. When the dialogue screen is up for one it masks the dialogue screen for the other, that it is saying goto this other (can't see it now) screen to acknowledge connection. - ARGGHHHHHHHH.My HP/Canon/Anyothermake printer is WiFi, but has to connect to the PC via USB before it knows who it is and where its supposed to connect to.Smart technology - I hate it.

Fishmanoz Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 So it would seem that many retreat to model railways because the big bad world outside is too complicated, with or without somewhere to keep all the manuals? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
