I was curious as to what ipods people were having issues with. I have a 5th gen 160gb ipod classic. I am have been having the issue were the unit would disconnect from the ipod. or vice versa.

I had someone else use their ipod and it worked fine. They had an older 80GB ipod.

So I am wondering is is just the newer ipods that are having issues or not.

The 160gb ipod is the 6th gen ipod classic. Haven't had problems with it disconnecting but it will not understand any VR commands. Have you been able to get VR to work with yours.

I just got it and I havent played around with VR that much. When the ipod is working. It hears my commands but doesn't understand them. Now that could because I am not using the correct voice commands but so far I havent been that impressed with the VR.

have you tried downgrading the firmware on the 160 if possible, just to make sure thats why your VR commands arent working?

you have the pioneer cable, right? thats weird, the av inputs and usb have no relation to the power so im gonna guess that somehow some way wires are touching which is causing some kind of short or its an internal problem.
