A while back, I found on this forum an adapter that would let you use the IP-Bus as an AUX A/V input. Does anyone here know of that adapter?

 

Thanks in advance!

It won't be an A/V input, only audio. There are several adapters you can use from Pioneer, Peripheral Electronics, PAC and many other companies. One from Peripheral, the PXA-02, will give you an iPod input, rca's and a 3.5mm headphone jack on one unit. What do you need it to do?

why not just use the av input that the avic already has?

Yeah, what he said.

I plan on using the AUX input for my factory DVD. I already have the wires set up and it worked with my AVH-P6500DVD HU. I'm wanting to integrate my Zune w/ video for playback on the Z1 screen. I just thought that since you can run a DVD changer through the IP-BUS there would be an adapter to run video. I swear I saw something on this forum about six months ago while lurking here.

 

Another idea...anyone ever tried one of those video switcher units and can make a recomendation?

The Pioneer switcher works pretty well, looks cool, and is easy to use, even for kids. http://www.pioneerelectronics.com/pna/v ... 92,00.html The IP-bus only carries audio and command information.
