Connect your iPod to your TV with a DIY cable
The iPod A/V Cable is stylish and handy, but you may feel it's not worth the money; the Belkin cable gives you twice the value per foot but costs the same overall. For a less expensive alternative, find a standard A/V cable with three RCA plugs at one end (coded red, white, and yellow) and a 1/8-inch A/V plug with three bands at the other end.
To set up your iPod for playback, plug the 1/8-inch connector into your iPod's headphone port, and then plug the yellow, white, and red RCA connectors into the RCA jacks on your TV in this non-color-coded way:
Hi - the solution is really easy and I now feel very dumb, although it did take 15 mins on helpline to Sony to get there (and the guy there was suprised to learn that you could run slideshows and movies from an iPod onto TV)!
Basically its the same as with any other TV including my old Sony TV. Connect the iPod AV cable to the TV and select AV3! However, it does depend on what iPod version you have. My iPod Classic allows AV ie not just aural, connecting through the headphone socket, Later versions eg iPod Touch requires an AV connector which connects through the base not the headphone socket in order to the the Visual bit.

me too
I have just purchased a Bravia Z series TV, replacing a Sony Trinitron. I used to connect my iPod to my old TV using the standard iPod AV cable to show slideshows with music.
However, when trying to link the iPod to the Bravia in the same way (referred to as Component in the Bravia menu) it does not register. Searching online I read articles that I now need to purchase another component which Sony have just released. Why should this be necessary on a new expensive TV when it worked perfectly well on the old one? Seems like a ripoff to me, unless there is a way to connect without this extra device.
me too! this is wack! does it seriously not work, my TV is in Danish which I can't read so i had previously put the troubles down to that, but wow, maybe its the TV. so ****, i bought the cable for way too much seeing the prices that are on amazon now.
