Yeah I think I read it from you in another thread actually haha.


It's a long shot but does anyone have any idea if USB+AUX to 30pin to RCA would ouptut video onto the BeSpoke? Or if it's even possible with tweaks?

Grab a male video or audio cable and buy a coupler to change it to female. Something like this: http://www.frys.com/product/1646410;...H:MAIN_RSLT_PG

If you have the Zypr BeSpoke I recommend you just stop now but if you really want to keep going you connect wires to pins using computer parts. In your computer (fan or power button connection) there are these 2-4pin sleeves that go into the pins and fit snuggly onto the HU pins. It won't "lock" as well as a whole harness but they aren't likely to come loose.

So it really is impossible then? :(

There's gotta b someway to make that video feed work

No idea. I had an idea when I heard Zypr model used the AUX cable for video input for the ipod. Hardware wise I think if you used the aux+usb cable to 30 pin ipod adapter -> 30pin ipod to RCA it might work but I feel like it's a longshot in terms of the software in the BeSpoke.

Another possible way I think is to use the backup camera video slot on some kind of switch except wiring your RCA video cable to it as well. So basically the same idea as backup camera on a switch except it's your AV instead.

O well. Then ill see if its possible on the 2014 headunit or jus give up on it

For BeSpoke owners that have Zypher or whatever the hell it's called... just put in a switch and use the backup camera input for Aux.

It won't be super simple but the idea would be to have a switch with some relays. A switch could be mounted for the driver to flip and that would send 12v to the trigger wire on the head unit, it would also swap the RCA input from the backup camera to an RCA cable of your choosing.

Again this isn't rocket science. RCA input sucks and the resolution on the head unit is crap but this would be your only option.

Never thought of that lol. It's only for an SNES so quality isn't an issue for me lol

Is there a way to output sound using that method though? Video switching relay wouldn't be too complicated but has anyone found which pins do sound for the backup camera... if it even exists lol.

Not sure on sound. Also you'd have the nagging text telling to you watch your surroundings too.

In low def that's not too big an issue

For sound jus run it thru the 3.5mm jack with an RCA to 3.5mm converter and keep it on that input. Music still plays wen i go in reverse so should work

Which pin do you go into though? The one in the AV Hidden Menu guide won't work for Zypr.
