Question about video playback


Recommended Posts

Hello,

I tried to search the forums and can't find a definite answer.

 

I was wondering for the 700BT, can you play movies from the SD card or iPod while moving if you do the bypass?

 

Or is the ability to watch movies only for the 900BT/90BT.

 

Thank you.

Thank you for the reply.

 

So the 900/90 can actually play actual DVD's?

 

Do you know what format these units can play?

 

According to Pioneer's site, it says that the 900/90 are the ones that can play DIVX and not the 700.

 

Is that true?

 

Thank you.

THE f700BT doesnt have a dvd player. it only plays movies and videos thru the ipod sd card and usb. bt ive read on another thread that the sd card and usb videos cant be in mpeg4 like on the ipod.

Thanks for the replies again.

Great forum, and great people here!

 

I guess paying about $100 more for the 900BT is worth it.

 

As if I recall correctly didn't someone say that loading up with the iPod connected takes like 1-2 minutes while without takes 30 seconds?

 

Thanks again.

If you have an iPod connected and voice recognition catalog turned on then it takes quite a bit longer before you can control the iPod. Making sure the iPod isn't connected when you turn on the car and then connecting it will decrease the amount of time this process takes considerably.

 

This has nothing to do with how long the system takes to boot though, that's just a long time regardless of whether or not an iPod is connected.

 

Personally, the last thing I want to do is lug DVD's out to my car to watch a movie, so that wasn't a big deal for me. MSN Direct would be a bigger issue.

Thanks for the reply.

 

I forgot about the MSN Direct.

Is that service worth it?

 

Just out of curiousity, do more people tend to purchase the 700 or the 900/90

 

So can I play .avi and .mpg from my SD card on the 700?

 

Thanks again.
