Can you get us a debug log (wiki) of when you attempt to use video out? That will tell us if XBMC is detecting the true second screen or not.

XBMC only sees the internal screen when it starts up. Make sure the HDMI adapter is plugged in before starting XBMC.

Still wont let me click on display after following your advice, is there anything I could try or does my ipad 1 not support this option Sad

Well at least you should hear the ios system sounds from the TV when connected via HDMI (i mean outside of XBMC). It works for me with the original HDMI Adapter on an iPad1 - it is supported for sure. Its just that your iPad doesn't seem to see the TV (at least XBMC doesn't - nothing we can do about that. We ask iOS "Show me all attached screens" and it returns "There is no screen attached dude").

Ensure that you don't have any 3rdparty tvout apps installed.

Yep when tvout to tv is activated the whole ipad will be a touch remote. The gestures should be printed on the ipad - not sure what your problems you have with those - mind telling me?
