Is there another connector which allows rca into the satnav connector??.Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alpine will also have something like this n a few weeks that will supposedly allow you to hook anything you want upto the ICC, obviously including any Alpine gear with Ai-Net. IMO, if you can get the Blau adaptor seperately, go for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could do the following:1) RGB SCART DVD player as suggested set to NTSC mode2) Unmodded Xbox (ie Legal) set to NTSC3) Any off the shelf DVD player set to NTSC (most car types can have that set) then run it through a CVBS to RGB convertor for about $160 from convertors.tv or whatever their URL is....4) Buy the Blau/Apline/VDO gadget and cableThe KEY factor is you need to get a RGB+S NTSC timed signal at the ICC end of the deal.Oh and if you already have satnav you loose that because none of the current solutions cater for satnav/aux switching...That will change in a very short period of time.A.

Guest murtly Guests Posted 13/07/05 02:46 AM Share Posted 13/07/05 02:46 AM Is it possible to get a connector like a RCA to SCART convertor and do it this way. The connector has RCA on one End and SCART pins on the other, also it has a switch on the top of the asdapter to select INput or Output via RCA end.Can someone help I have tried this setup but I can not get a picture on the screen, I have a DVD player with NTSC and still nothing. If I put the Video Switch and Ground together I get a black screen so it is switching the screen. JUST NO PICTURES. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All they do is change pin-out types. In a SCART connector there are a number of different signals and you need the correct signals.. the ones witht he switch on them simply give you CVBS.travis, the latter item is mroe liekly to work correctly.. But it depends on the way the conversion is done and the timign of the output signals etc... Hell I bought a CVBS/SCART seperator from a major electronics chain that claimed on the paperwork to convert CVBS to RGB and it didn't.... $130 down the crapper there....
