| Ipod Intergration, Reverse Camera and DVD Audio |
|
Sorry about this I am new to the forum, I have been reading posts all day and found some greate stuff (thanks wiggs) what i cant seem to find is how to connect the audio for dvd playback i have found the info on the 3 sockets on the back of the head unit and ordered the connectors.
To get a reverse camera to work is there anything else to it apart from connecting the signal cable to the head unit, is there a trigger required etc etc.
I have a 2005 (no tv) HSE what is the best way to connect an Ipod for audio playback and charging i read talk of a belkin amp/charger but no metion of a model number etc.
Many thanks in advance.

Welcome to the site. 
Aux can be connected into the socket at the rear of the center consul.
Or a more permenant fixture can be done in a few places ..look here http://www.disco3.co.uk/forum/topic17945.html
Reversing camera will not work when you put it into reverse  ..you have to manually enter the diagnostic mode to switch it on.
I am trying out an interface box at the moment that will give you PC input ,AV1 , AV2 and a reversing cam signal automatically ( when you put in in reverse ) however im haveing a few probs with it ..so it may be a no -goer 
I will post more in the next couple of days ..
Quickest and easiest for your ipod would be to take a lead fron your headphone socket on the ipod to the aux connector on the car ..although Alpine are supposedly realeaseing a module that would give you full functions through your touch screen. G4 Gone ...but not forgotten

You need to check the landrover site for compatibility, Land Rover Bluetooth site link
There is another thread on here with the details, but post VIN 441XXX (details in other thread) have the BT sync as standard, earlier models need an update to support BT sync.
I am reading the same stuff at the moment, as my basic nokia works fine for BT sync but the wifes (supported) blackberry does not.

The E51 works for me with phone book.
You need to get the software updated on the phone kit on the car which was quite a battle at the time and you have to pay for.
A little tip though, my car kit would not recover from a 'no service' message if you tried to make a phone call in a area with no coverage. When back in coverage you still got 'no service' on the phone display. I reported this and the dealer loaded new software which happened to enable the bluetooth phone upgrade.
If they say your phone is not compatible (it isn't on their list) say it happens with your wife's 6230i phone (I think that was on the list but check) and that should do it.
However there were bugs with the upgrade and I think the upgrade was withdrawn for a while and not sure if it got put back.
So what I am really saying is I don't know but the software upgrade worked for me...
