HELP: can I set my rearseat DVD to mirror my AppRadio for video playback?

Hi guys,

Is there any way that can I set my rearseat DVD to mirror my AppRadio for video playback?

I have the ability to watch Netflix, Youtube, etc. on my AppRadio but I would love to figure out a way to have whats playing on my dash mirrored to the flip-down DVD player for the kids.

The DVD has visible RCA inputs on the back and when I search through the "mode" it has DVD/AV1/AV2 options so I know its capable of receiving video.

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Thanks!

The AppRadio has video in, not video out.

Ok... thats what I thought... Here's another idea I had which should work in theory

In theory, sure. In practice, maybe.

I'm sure there's a less complicated way of doing it. A pass through dock cable with RCA out would work. at least if someone makes such a thing.

I don't think anyone makes one, but it would basically be a male to female dock connector cable with an RCA output.
