Ipod cable for AV input. Hack?

Postby adamwcct on Sat, 09 Apr 2016 4:12 +0000

Does any one know where to purchase the required cable for av input or if there is a hack available for the head unit? I have asked toyota which simply refers me to the manual. Seems like Toyota have released a new car using obsolete technology. Apple do not sell the lead and the dealer has no idea. I am running the prestigious society vehicle in motion module and would like to be able to have video playing for the little one.

from what i can make out you need a 4 pole 3.5 mm jack as linked below, the fourth pole is for the video like the old camcorder playback setup or the samsung tv av plugs

I used one in my prado. Trick was that the yellow plug was not video. Can't remember if it was the white one or the red one instead.

I got this cable and it works, but its quite old technology and the handbrake must be on for it to show the picture. I'm going to see if i can do anything about it

I have one of these cables and the quality isn't very good. I tested it on a raspberry pi 1 running kodi, but have a pi zero on the way which might yield better results.
