I have an iPod 80 GB Classic. It plays videos and I've just bought an Apple Component AV cable to connect it to my TV and play videos through it. But although I connected the cable correctly as per the instructions the TV just says 'No Signal'. Any ideas?

Thanks, but yes I did enable the TV out. In fact I tried it with each of the variables under Video Settings and the result was the same. I have followed all the instructions from Apple in relation to both the iPod and the AV cable to the letter but my TV just won't recognise it. It works fine with a 160 Gb iPod and an iPhone, but not the 80Gb Classic. Perhaps the Apple compatability advice is wrong.
