Been testing out an AVH-P4100DVD for a week now. I have everything working great except for ipod video. I am trying both a nano 3g and an itouch 2g. Trying both .mp4 & .m4v formats with no luck. I have video working on DVD source and Xvid on DVD-R. I am also using the CD-IU200V as directed by Pioneer and have all settings correct for playing ipod video from the manual. I have converted video to multiple ipod formats with many different resolutions. Anyone have any ideas or similar problems with this source unit or similar? I am hoping to hear from some AVIC-900 or 90BT owners as I am close to shipping this thing back and swapping to the 90BT. Just worried about the long load time complaints.

turn off radio from source screen. then touch top right corner to bring up av menu button, touch av menu button and goto initial menu. change aux 1 to iPod. page 49 in manual

Tried this already with no success.

make sure tv out setting on ipod is on and make sure its on NTSC not PAL also you have the usb and the mini plugged in from the cdiu200v to the radio? the mini plug does the video

I am haveing this same problem can anyone help?

Im having a problem with this 2. I've always been able to see the video in AUX1 but the sound will not play, and when i goto iPod the sound will play but no video. Cant figure out wut im doing wrong. Any suggestions?

Hello. I just had a avh-p4100dvd installed also with the cd-iu200v iPod cable. I changed the AUX to iPod as stated above, but I am not getting video, only sound from my iPhone 3G. I also tried the iPod 4G and there is no sound or video. Video plays on the iPod/iPhone, but not the deck. Has anyone found a solution?

Thanks in advance.

Has anyone gotten this to work?

Im at my wits end...

I am having the same issue. Trying to get video to work on my Ipod 5g 30gb with the CD-IU200V. No matter what I try, I can't get video, but I have sound. I am wondering if maybe this cable I bought from ebay that came from Hong Kong is defective...

SOLUTION!!!!!!!!!!!!

you need to remove the backgroun from the ipod source in order for you video to play, i just hit the reset button on mine and then went to AV menu+initial menu+aux1-IPOD+aux2-off then go to ipod av menu and select video. this sould work fine. i was having trouble with it too but finally figured it out!!!!!!!! hope everyone can get it to work as well.

thanks

I was able to use the above suggestion successfully but now the video and audio are not syncing correctly. Meaning, when someone's mouth moves, it takes 1 to 2 seconds for the audio to play.

Any ideas?

This is with an Ipod Touch 2nd Generation with version 3.1.2 installed.

I tried what gtown described but I still only get audio and no video. When I play a video, I get the blue warning screen, then I push ok and the screen turns black with audio only. I'm using a 3rd gen nano.

Had my Pioneer AVH-P4100DVD for 2 days now and had a similar problem with playing video from my iPhone 3GS. I originally linked mine up using the generic ipod USB lead and a standard 3.5MM audio jack from the back of the unit to my iPhone. With this setup i could only manage to hear sound from my iPhone movies with a blank screen. I then bought a genuine Pioneer CD-IU200V lead and now i can get video. Its the smaller jack part on that lead (looks like an audio jack) thats sending the picture to Pioneer headunit. The lead DOES need to be put direct in to the back of the unit and not run with and extension leads.

So for those that cant get video, your either using standard usb\audio cables like i tried or your not using the genuine Pioneer lead. Also dont trust ebay for the CD-IU200V leads as you dont know if there the real deal or not.

Got mine here for £24.49

My only complaint now, is that iam getting a very slight audio delay when streaming from my iPhone to the PIoneer headunit, lip movement isnt matching up to the audio perfectly. I'll look into to solving that next.

Hello any updates on this issue??? I too have the p4100dvd with the CD-IU200V cable . When I play a video such as youtube on my iphone, I can hear it on the ipod input and see it on the AUX1 input but never both. When I go to initial setup and set AUX1 to ipod, the AUX1 source in my source menu is disabled. Im not sure if anyone has a fix for this. Please let me know.

The aux1 input is supposed to be disabled when the aux1 is set to ipod. However, I can't help you with your main problem. srry dude!

i got my guy to fix this problem today.

not really to sure of how he did it, but he held down the source button, the it turned off. then he taped the screen at pressed the top right corner where it say av menu. then intel set up. make sure you aux is set to ipod. that help me.

now my question is, how do you hook up an xbox to the back? if you could just tell me when the red, white, and yellow rcas go. that would be great!

I'm not sure if this is correct, but here's what I just did to get the iPod to play videos on the screen:

I went to the "ipod" source, I hit "menu" on the wheel, I chose video in the top right corner, went through the menus to find and select a video, then it looks like it's playing (but no sound or image), I then switch the source to AUX 1 and a "still" image of the image of the video is there, I then push the puse/play button on the ipod and everything starts going.

This seems awfully involved just to play the video, but it's working (I guess).

Does anyone else have this issue and is this how you do it too?

Thanks,

Ben

I've seen a ton of posts about the iPod video out problems. It seems as if updating your iPod with a new firmware version is the culprit. You can back load old firmware to fix the problem but I have read where people have had a lot of problems when they do it. I bought an iPod to rca cable and ran that to the back of the head unit. Now I can watch video through the iPod via the AV source. Video and sound are great. To listen to music and control the iPod I just unhook it from the rca cable and plug it into the usb cable and select iPod as the source. This is the best option out there in my opinion.

After a couple hours of trying to figure out why I had no video, this is the solution that helped me. Thanks for posting this ampboy41.

I too was getting no video on the iPod source, and the still image on AUX-1 with a 6th gen iPod (160GB). Also could play video through AUX-1 with a 5.5 gen iPod by pressing play on the iPod when the still image appeared, but no other control from the iPod itself worked. Some people have mentioned renaming AUX-1 to iPod, but that does nothing. The unit has to be off to access the initial menu, and there you can set AUX-1 for iPod, which will grey out AUX-1 on the source selection screen. I'm using the CD-IU200V cable (without the mini plug).
