Hello,

Not sure if this is the right section, please of course feel free to move this.



Anyway, is there a list somewhere as to what specific makes/models of camcorders and other devices are compatable with the RCA jack AUX plugs in a 2009 G37x Coupe? Reason I ask is I plugged in acamcorder, one at my dad's house and got audio but no video, I was showing him the plugs and the iPod plug. I'd assume that with the red and white plugs, it will do video with something, yellow is the audio cable if I remember right. I forget what he has specfically other then it's a 3 or 4 year old Sony camcorder, about 6 megapixel resoultion maybe? Yes, I know that could still be nearly anything.

 

Hey Arvig, yellow is for video btw. White and Red for audio.
I'm assuming anything that can output with those connections should work.

 

LOL, I had what they were backwards. But well I did have the right colored jack to the right socket.

Anyway, not sure why his camcorder didn't work then. I did hit the "AUX" button.

As an aside, mine has no nav system. I forgot to mention that. I only have the premium package. Is that a factor?

 

If there are inputs then it should work. Disc-Aux button with Nav and Aux without Nav. The manual mentions it will display images from compatible NTSC compliant devices and Aux Video will not display unless the parking break is set. Additionally before connecting the cables turn off the power to the audio system and the camera (sec 4-61). Maybe that would make a difference. I'll see if I can give it a try with my cam to confirm.

 

I second that.

 

Yeah, so you must have the foot brake/hand brake engaged to get anything. I could not fully verify as the HD cam I have has no RCA output for video, just component. But the display changed and showed the clock in the top right corner once the emergency brake was on.

 

Okay, I read the manual but I missed the part on the parking brake. That's it then, I did everything else based on what was in the manual but somehow missed the reference to the parking brake. I'll have to try this again. Thanks.

 

NP! Happy to have helped.
