No picture on television when connecting s-video outlet from JBL radial and showing a film or pictures on a docked i-pod touch.

    Connection using an s-video cable plugged into a peritel adapter in which a playstation is also connected.playstation works on television so its not a problem of aux input selection. Message on TV screen says "No signal" when using JBL connection.

    Could it be a problem of compatibility with the I'pod as on some internet forums several people indicate that I-pods only work with Apple products.
    The JBL dock says it is compatible with an I-pod touch!!!

    That could be interesting especially as I had difficulties getting an s-video cable with a small enough connector to fit in the socket at the back of the radial. I guess I need to look into this further.
    Any suggestions ?

  • chrispierce Dec 28, 2009

    Thanks for this. I was afraid that it would be something like this.
    It doesn't stop JBL indicating that the radial is compatible with the 2nd generation of i-pods !!!!

Hi, I have this problem and when I spoke to JBL techical support they told me that Apple have changed their software on the New Nano and the ipod touch and of course the iphone and regrettably the radial does not support S video for these products. I'm told it will work with first generation ipod classics. PS: i had to carefully cut off some of the plastic plug to make sure the connection goes all the way into the back of the radial

Make sure that you select the correct 'AUX' input mode on your TV setup by connecting another know good device (such as a DVD player) to this S-VHS TV input

  • Megasom Dec 27, 2009

    Thank you for your feedback but your JBL was designed speifically for Ipod product and therefore should be compatible.
    I am aware that somewhere along the line, JBL changed their S-VHS support in favor to a 'in favor of a minijack-style AV-out connector', could it be the issue as you are not getting a signal on the coorect pins on the S-VHS ?

Jbl radial dock connector broken

I have the same problem, but I got round it instantly by plugging my ipod into the speaker via the headphone port on the ipod and into the audio port on the speaker. The speaker came with a spare lead as you can plug any music player into it this way. The sound quality seems exactly the same and I dont have to throw away the speakers, hooray! If you have lost the lead you need a 3.5 mm male to male headphone lead, just pence in any electrical shop or amazon!

My jbl radial, when using a 120 gig ipod, will skip songs.

Not a solution but mine sometimes causes my ipod to skip mid-song to the next song or podcast as well. JBL customer service is usually good and I've been meaning to check with them since I finally figured out it's the radial and not my ipod.

My docking station has a loose conection where the i pod sits!

You need to dismantle the unit and resolder the ipod socket. It is soldered to the board and the solder joints crack under the strain. This will happen to every JBL dock eventually.

How can I disassemble a Radial I-pod docking station. The connector is broken, I have the bottom section removed, but I cannot find the hidden screws/compartment.My guess is they are under the metal mesh.

hiya, i just had the same problem, where as my ipod dock connector didnt work, so i took it to the shop where i bought it and they said it wasnt repairable,, not taking this as an answer i went over to a mates house who is a lecky and asked him to repair it,,, we then come onto the snag of not being able to open it to get to the fault to solve this we got a bit mad at it and accidently dropped it on the floor :P where the 2 mesh panels came off showing over 20 new screws yes i said 20!!!! all that was holding the mesh was a lot!!!!! of glue..... after we took the many screws out we found out the reason why the shop said it wasnt repairable.... the manufacturer has put loads and loads of glue on everything stopping anyone from removing any of the connectors... we spent a good hour trying to remove the silly amount of glue but to no avail...
So if i was you i would bin it and get a new one...

How to open the jbl radial micro speaker set?

Bit late! Just remove the four rubber feet underneath (self adhesive). Take out the four philips screws. It's a bit of a mess inside - you'll have to remove the connectors and some screws to get to the i-pod connector. You dont need to remove the button pcbs just the main board. The i-pod connector pcb is on the end of the grey ribbon cable connected to the main board (the button end of the unit).

I-pod connector came off

this connector is available complete with pcb from jbl service center.But radial is very difficult to open.You need to open the mesh with a hair dryer,because it is heavely glued with hot glue on the borders.you will find screws inside.And also from the bottom & sides you have to remove this decorative strip.
it is very time consuming & headache.
i have myself replaced five of this docking sockets,it will take minimum of two to three hours to do this
