I've got the D3, with the Pioneer iPod integration cable, and a 1 month old 80gig iPod. All of a sudden when I plug in my iPod this is what comes up on my D3 screen, and it won't show the controls to use the iPod It was working fine before!

Are you trying to play a video from the iPod or hit the "video" button from the iPod menu by accident?

No, listen to audio.

After that message on the D3 screen it starts playing music on the iPod, but the screen is black and has no controls for the iPod showing.

That's really weird because that screen only comes up when you're trying to play a video from the iPod.

As soon as I plug the cable into the iPod this is what I get. I don't even have a chance to request it to play videos, even though I have no intention of playing any vids. Just want to play my music

Once you see this message press anywhere on the screen. You will see "video" controls (play/pause, forward back) as well as a Music Button (i think it says music, it may say ipod control or something) just press that button. it will return to your normal operation.

I'm going to go try this, thanks! I'll let you know!

All fixed, thanks dude, that was way too easy. Minus 10 brain cells for me!

No prob. For future reference thats the screen for playing videos. If you want to play a video then press video in the top right of the music screen (which you probably did by accident) and then use your ipod to pick a video. To switch back to music use the above method. Enjoy the AVIC!
