I finally received a specific lead from the US and have now completed my set up.
Probably overkill for a car, but there are often times when I am left waiting at a gate and being able to watch a film or TV is great and my youngster also loves it....although I haven't got around to copying Glee for some reason
The set up:
1. about 30 films on an SD card stored in the unit
2. 3000 odd music tracks from an ipod kept in the Glove box and connected by USB, controlled from the Player
3. Iphone connected via USB and Video.
4. Rear view camera, now useable even if not reversing
With that I can use apps from the iphone controlled from the player or the iphone, specifically sat nav, and also have bluetooth hands free, and then have music playing from ipod; and all can be independantly controlled from the player unit. Using the (jailbreaked ) iphone's 3G connection, I can also play TVcatchup, iplayer etc on the Pioneer; great for F1 when away I can even use the screen when using remote desktop to connect to my home/office PCs/servers
After playing with the settings, the sound quality is very good, probably helped by the HK speakers.
Oh, and the car is great. Just sailed through an MOT carried out a few months earlier than necessary as a final check that everything is sorted.
None of this would have been possible without your posts
