DVD out of Park
Hello,
New guy here! Has anyone found a way to play the factory DVD player on the NAV screen out of park? I have an '08 SUT, it plays on the rear but not on the main screen out of park. Safety sometimes sucks!!
Thanks

RE: DVD out of Park
at the risk of sounding half-a$$, if you really want to watch, go under the dash, find the e-brake switch, trip it and watch away-you'll just have the annoying indicator.
but you'd be much better off going aftermarket with the correct adapter.

On Tuesday, I just installed an Eclipse AVN6620 in my H3. There waswire for the parking brake switch. I was tempted to just ground it instead of connecting it, so I could play DVDs, etc. but I didn't.
I did notice that the Nav menu won't let me make certain selections if the vehicle is motion, but it will if I am stopped at a red light, but still in DRIVE. I believe it uses the speed-pulse wire that I connected. I am tempted to disconnect that wire because its really annoying. But the Nav system uses the speed-pulse input to augment the GPS.
I kinda miss my Garmin, but that 7" screen is GORGEOUS!

Front-mount camera that scans the sides as well as the front of the vehicle. Easily mounts behind the grille. Requires CAB106 Power Supply for Camera to be used.

HummBob, have you seen that new thing from Infinity? http://blogs.cars.com/kickingtires/2...ti_around.html
Now that would be a cool camera system for the H2.
