Great question! Yes, it will work in terms of streaming your movies, photos or music but it will not Mirror your iPad, since iPad mirroring works with the later models and iPhone 4S.

AirPlay Mirroring requires Apple TV and iOS device to be on the same network. If you have the new iPad 3rd generation or iPhone 4S it has a personal hotspot that Apple TV can join which will form a network of the 2 devices.

Honestly, this product is designed with Apple TV in mind and we have not tested the Sony Media Player yet, however it will work with all HDMI sources. ATV Pro will display the entire Apple TV interface on the VGA projector when connected to it.

Absolutely, the ATV Pro is designed for legacy displays such as those mentioned above and VGA based projectors.

Great question. The VGA output resolutions are displayed using EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) through internally stored resolutions from either the VGA display parameters or through the adapters internal memory of resolutions.

Apple TV will easily connect using HDMI but for your sony tv, you need to see if you have a VGA port on the back, not DVI-D. This converter will only work from HDMI to VGA with stereo audio.

Yes it has been tested to work with Apple TV 3rd Generation, 2nd Generation even the original Apple TV from 2006

Yes it does. You'll need an micro hdmi adapter though

No. You only need a wired connection from your Apple TV to the VGA projector using our ATV Pro. That's it! Once that is connected, you can stream, mirror your content from iPad wirelessly around the class-room or conference room. The stereo mini-jack connects to the VGA projector for audio.

Yes, it will automatically recognize the video system (PAL or NTSC) based on your TV. You don't need any additional accessories except a longer VGA cable and 3.5mm stereo audio cable for sound.

Apple TV max resolution out for AirPlay mirroring is 720p (1280x720 pixels). No matter if the output port is HDMI or VGA this is the max from the source Apple TV

No

Yes

The answer is yes. You can easily connect the ATV Pro to your stereo or 2-channel speakers from the TV, disconnect the VGA output and still get audio from your iTunes collection and other Airplay related music sources. But keep in mind, you need Apple TV there to work the magic.

Yes, the internal EDID tables includes 1024x768 resolution and lower res up to 640x480 or 800x600. The internal tables cannot be customized since the converter works on Auto EDID mode, however – you can customize Apple TV resolution by going under general/ audio –video settings/ tv resolutions.

Great question, yes it does handle multiple iPads in the classrooms, to be precise - you can handle one signal at a time from Airplay devices and pass it on to another iPad as long as they are connected to the same network. As a tip: you can also set up a password/ lock for every ipads so they can log in to the Apple TV once their password is entered. Let us know if you have any other questions. Thanks

It will re-size the output based on your screen resolution. Apple TV supports 800x600, 1024x768, 720p and 1080p. Depending on the display, you can watch full widescreen TV when streaming Netflix or Itunes content but in mirror mode you screen when in Vertical mode will compress itself, smaller than 4:3 due to Airplay Restriction. On a second note, try going under projector settings and change your screen size (Horizontal& Vertical) this may help the overall size when mirroring.

Yes, absolutely - you can use the optical out from the Apple TV to your AV receiver and still get 5.1 SS while connected to 3.5mm stereo which powers the 2-channlel audio from VGA projector speakers and you can mute or unmute, that's the beauty of it.

Yes, it will work with any VGA projector as long as you match the resolution from your Apple TV to the native resolution of the projector. For more information, please click on the FAQ's tab under http://www.kanexlive.com/atvpro

No, Airplay mirroring technology only works currently with iPad 2, 3 and iPhone 4s.

Great question, when running 50ft VGA cabling or higher, signal equalization is required (through a booster or repeater), audio will work with 5-foot, but video will not provide the highest resolution unless accompanied by VGA boosters in between.

1.For your first question, the answer is "Yes". You can still display normal Apple TV interface on to your projector and if you connect the 3.5mm stereo, you will get audio also. 2. The ATV Pro is fully compatible with OS X Mountain Lion, in terms of audio and video, however, you may want to check the hardware requirements for your mac since only the newer versions support Airplay thru macbook pros, air and minis. Thanks.

No, the MacBook Pro Retina does not supply power through the HDMI port to power the ATVPro.

Thats a great question,however - adding a Component or DVI adapter on the other side of VGA will diminish the picture quality and most probably wont airplay your protected content such as iTunes or iBooks. There are several reasons for this, first being that our device is powerless, most of the DVI connectors requires 5v extraction from HDMI or other sources. Secondly, the Kanex ATV Pro is already a converter, by adding two converters in the same sequence may result into no display at all. Hope i answered your question. Thanks.

Yes, that's true due to Airplay restrictions, when you stream a movie or video it will display on a normal widescreen mode, but when mirrored you are going to lose that part of screen, the ATV Pro adapter has nothing to do with the sizing but that's how airplay mirroring is designed. On a side note, try adjusting the resolution on your apple tv to 1024x768@60Hz and see if it adds more screen on the side. Thanks.
