    Hello,

    Total NOOB question about environment setup using a mac with OSX .67
    Finding the place to put the TVout.h type or library so I can get past
    ‘TVout’ does not name a type’ error in the “OverlayDemo” has me stopped. Tried putting it in quite a few places including the recommendations/instructions on how to do it.
    Thinking that it is a library, I imagine that when I get it correct it will be in the sketch menu under Library with EEPROM and the rest. Is this correct? TVout.h and .cpp are currently in a folder named Libraries in the Arduino folder that is in the users documents folder.
    Here is the preferences Sketchbook location ‘/Users/variador/Documents/Arduino’ that is the same Arduino that has the folder Libraries that was referenced earlier.
    Added the files .h and .cpp for TVout so they were tabs, no joy.
    Is there help for me?
    Thanks

    Found an answer in Arduino forum from PrairiePoet and it works great;
    “For Mac users, go to your Applications folder, right click on the Arduino.app and select “Show Package Contents”. Then navigate through that to find the Library folder.”
    You will know you have the library folder for sure because it has EEPROM and all the others.

    Rename TVout-VE to TVout put it in the Library folder you find and when you restart TVout will be in the Import Library dropdown menu under sketchbook.
