iPhone 5, Lightning to 30-pin Adaptor & Apple 30-pin Digital AV Adapter

Nope:

In the notes it says "3. Apple AV adapters cannot provide video output when used with Lightning to 30-pin Adapter or Lightning to 30-pin Adapter (0.2 m) adapter."

Also there's a difference in what is spec'ed to be supported as these guys pointed out http://www.iclarified.com/24410/new-iphone-5-may-not-support-video-out-over-ligh tning-connector :

iPhone 5: TV and Video

● AirPlay Mirroring to Apple TV support at 720p

● AirPlay video streaming to Apple TV (3rd generation) at up to 1080p and Apple TV (2nd generation) at up to 720p

iPhone 4S: TV and Video

● AirPlay Mirroring to Apple TV support at 720p

● AirPlay video streaming to Apple TV (3rd generation) at up to 1080p and Apple TV (2nd generation) at up to 720p

● Video mirroring and video out support: Up to 1080p with Apple Digital AV Adapter or Apple VGA Adapter (adapters sold separately)

● Video out support at 576p and 480p with Apple Component AV Cable; 576i and 480i with Apple Composite AV Cable (cables sold separately).

I thought it would until I tried it today with my new 30 pin to lightning connector (that I waitedforever for that doesn't work with covers) and no video out. I'm not happy about this at all!!

I hope a solution comes out to watch videos on TVs while travelling!

Maybe the Apple TV 4 will have an adhoc wifi setting so we can travel with it LOL.

this article gives some good info on the adapters, http://www.macworld.com/article/2012137/hands-on-with-apples-lightning-to-30-pin -adapters.html

I have now bought another adapter to add on to my first adapter to see if it will charge! Way to go apple :)

Cheers

Good News! Lightning to Digital A/V Adapter just released! and it says it works with the iPhone 5:

also Lightning to VGA:

Does it do RCA? If not then it is pretty much useless for the app radios I suspect. Unless that little port will expand out to an RCA converter in the future.

Not sure what you mean by "useless for the app radios". Most devices a have a simple line-in jack, which you can connect to from the iPhone's headphone jack via s stereo-mini to stereo-mini wire. If you need to connect RCA inputs go from the iPhone's headphone jack with a stereo-mini to RCA y-cable.

Also, a lot of modern cars and AV receivers also allow you to connect for audio via USB. And many AV receivers have a front HDMI port for quick connections, which you can use for audio as well.

I have not yet seen a lightning version of the composite AV cable with the RCA connectors you mention, however, though the old 30-pin cable won't support video through the lightning-to-30 pin adapter, it will support audio (aside from specs, I've personally successfully gotten sound out of it though the lighting to 30-pin adapter). That cable is here:
