ok ipod problem
i dont know if i need the ipod connector that comes with the car to watch videos. but i have an AUX cable YELLOW and WHITE that plugs into the aux ports and the other end goes into the Headphone jack of the ipod. i hit the aux button the movie is playing on the Ipod but not the screen. The sound from the movie is playing on the speakers but not the video. and from time to time the message video will be resumed when vehicle is stopped but the car is in park not moving. i tried turning everything off and back on nothing works. any ideas/suggestions?

which ipod are you using, and have you looked at the video settings on your ipod to see if video out is enabled?

i posted somewhere earlier that you don't need the apple connector, just swap the white/red with the yellow connnectors into the aux and it'll all work, you don't need apples connector, just swap the colors till it works.

Like above, it only works on the older iPods prior to the iPod Touch/Classic/iPhone generation. I know cause I've tried on my iPhone before and it does not work. You MUST use the Apple Composite AV cable if you want video output for the new line of Apple products from now on.

i had to use the apple wires for video in my z:
black ipod wires for mp3's and charges the ipod as well.
white "official" apple wires for videos/movies. needs to be plugged into outlet for charging:
