Cam as AV Source and listening to music.

I recently installed a cam in my car. Hooked it up to video in.

 

I don't see an audio in to go with the cam, but the F700bt wants to play audio from that av source when it's selected.

 

 

Anyhow, I would really like to be able to listen to cd's/mp3s/rom/whatever audio files while looking through the cam. Are there any existing solutions or any leads on potential solutions to accomplish this?

 

 

 

Also, as a bonus, are there any solutions to record the video stream?

 

Thanks,

You could hook up the camera to the "Backup Camera" input. If you have music playing and then select it on the Source screen, your music will continue to play and this would free up AV/1

 

Alternatively, you could hook up your cam to AV/2 but this would kill any other sources trying to play music.

 

And no, I believe there is no native function to record this.
