ccajay Posted March 31, 2013 Report Share Posted March 31, 2013 So has anyone had any issues with sending iPod video into the rear monitors of the Z150? I tried to send Netflix to the rear screens and it will not work, it plays fine on the front screen but nothing on the rear...DVD works fine. I made sure that the rear monitor output was set to iPod, also have changed it to mirror so that it would play the same as the front screen. Please help I have an 1100 mile trip back home and 2 teens that are easily bored! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

rgarjr Posted April 5, 2013 Report Share Posted April 5, 2013 Play a video from the iPod and see if shows it back there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ccajay Posted April 10, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2013 It plays video into the rear from the iPod...but if you try to do Netflix it goes into advanced app mode and will not display on the rear monitors. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Staize Posted June 18, 2013 Report Share Posted June 18, 2013 Has anyone figured this out? This issue is really getting to me. Seems kinda silly to have so many video options for the main unit without them being able to be shown on the rear monitor. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ghost911 Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 If your using the ipod power cable into the h/u by usb.. u will not get video... that cable doesnt support video only audio Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mlg74 Posted October 14, 2013 Report Share Posted October 14, 2013 i am having this same issure.rear monitor works fine with DVD but not with app radio and iphone 5. I am using the optional hdmi cable to connect to my iphone 5, and the video plays on h/u, but not on rear monitor in mirror mode. Or AV1, should I try AV2? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
joshehulbert Posted March 18, 2014 Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 Did anyone solve this? I'm having similar issues with video output to the rear. DVD works, but no other sources. It seems odd to me that one source would work and another (iPod, iPhone, sd, usb) would not. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bcsomos Posted April 12, 2014 Report Share Posted April 12, 2014 If you are running an iPhone or iPod with lightning connector you will only be able to get DVD to show on the rear display unless you do something special. Why?: 1. iPod source is not available when connected using the HDMI connection. You have to get a lightning to 30 pin connector then use CD-IU201N. **However functions relating to video and appradio mode are still not available** (pg. 108 in operator manual) 2. USB and SD do not output video to the rear (pg. 169 in operator manual) This only leaves 2 options now, AV1 or AV2. This means we have to somehow adapt the lightning connector into RCA and also note the signal has to go from digital to analog. It is not enough to just use the lightning to HDMI (apple adapter) and buy a HDMI to RCA cable. What I believe we need to do is either: (1) Lightning to HDMI (apple adapter) -> HDMI cable into a HDMI2AV converter (I can't paste the link but that is a model number of a brand named "MINI") -> RCA cable from this converter into AV2, or, RCA to mini jack (CD-RM10 from pg. 19 of installation manual) if you want to use AV1. this is a lot of wiring and could get messy. (2) is cleaner but more costly. (2) There is a product called Kivic One. You can airplay from your iphone/ipod/ipad/android to this and it has built in RCA outputs that can go to AV1 or AV2 of the Z150BH inputs. It uses its own ad-hoc wireless mode so you can also still use LTE to download Netflix/Slingbox or whatever you want to stream. There are videos on youtube about this so go have a look for Kivic One. I ordered one from their facebook page (paypal payment) for $199 USD. I plan to try it with the Z150BH and also inside my house so I will place it in a storage compartment. It is like apple TV but has its own network so you don't need a router inside your car and all the things that comes with that. Has anyone else tried either of these yet? Does it sound like the best way? I have been trying for a while and haven't been able to figure it out with what Pioneer has given us. It is stupid that we spend $1000 plus and have all this technology and they can't integrate this stuff from original. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bcsomos Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 Just following up to state that I have tried both (1) and (2) and they work great. (1) is better overall since it is inexpensive and all apps mirror perfectly. Youtube and Netflix did not work with option (2) because of airplay issues either by apple or the apps themselves. Alternatives to YouTube like Mctube worked though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
