What hardware/software is that?

CM

 

Why couldn't you have combined these? is there a limit?

Very nice.....what is ur carpc setup? What program you running??? U messed me up man! .....might have to consider....hmmm

 

Wow, nice setup!!!

 

What he said???

 

I'm running an Aopen mini pc with the Road Runner front end. Internet is provided by a wireless EVDO card (thing is sweet) I use it to stream music and videos. I've had this set up since last January but once you install one of these you are constantly upgrading software (part of the fun)

 

Yea there was a limit of 5 (Sorry for creating three post) but I wanted to share.

The mini is running
Pentium M 1.7
512 megs
80 gig drive
Combo drive (dvd/cd burner)
Sprint EVDO USB Wireless card

 

ohh no problem, lol, i figure their might have been a limit. I'm not an admin, i do appreciate the sharing!

Wow.....i'm going to have to look into this....

What kinda screen u got there? got a cardomain?

 

The screen is a 7" Lilliput Touchschreen. I'll be swapping it out soon for one that has autoflip (rear camera use). When I put the car in reverse it will automatically switch my screen to the backup camera. Xenarc have this feature but I'm not convinced just yet

 

Only a limit of 5 per post. You could have kept these all in one thread.


BTW, car looks good.

 

sorry about that. The picture posting thing is new to me

 

Looks good man.
In the future why not just reply to one thread multiple times with all the pics?

 

Do you have the stock hu? Is the carputer viewable on the headrest monitors? If so how did you spilt the signal, what type of video card are you using?

 

I have an aftermarket HU that also plays DVD's connected to the headrest. I was using one of the (Averkey 300 pc to tv adaptor) but I wasn't to happy with the picture so I took it out. Once I install the leather I plan to swap out these headrest monitors for some with VGA input.

 

Didn't even think of that. Next time

 

Nice lookin' setup. Expensive?

 

Single or double din? I would be interested to see a pic of your front cabin, similiar to this one;

 

Here ya go

 

The small display on my ac vent is my Bluetooth kit

 

Nice, did you install the hu yourself?

 

I did everything myself except for installing my wheels

 

I have about $1300 invested in the pc but considering everything it does it's well worth it. I had the car at the dealership to replace the chrome roof trim and all the techs were around the car playing with the pc.

 

great system... how much does it run?

 

I have about $1300 into it so far

 

1300 is great for all that man.

No hiccups? (lmao love the orly)

 

I think I saved alot of money by doing everything myself. Couldn't justify spending alot on an install and having to depend on someone else to fix any issues that may come up in the future.

I have the pc connected to the car with 3 cables (power, vga and usb) so i can disconnect it and bring into the house for upgrades or any other reason

 

Great job! Awesome, I'd never leave the car.

Please stop tho, you'll have me spending more money.

 

Come on !!! What's the use of making money if you can't play with your toys

 

wow, that looks really sick.. I merged all your threads to one

 

forgot this one

Sweeeet! Nice work.

 

BEAUTIFUL....Cant wait to move to Cali. and get me a carputer....

 

What does Cali have to do with a carputer?

 

Unmatched..you can split a vga signal several times. What motherboard are you running? Mini atx? Give me your specs and i can help you with the rest of it. I hope!.LOL!
I have five screens in/on the car and all of them display my carputer stuff.

Maxchef, Are all your screens VGA? if so that's an easy split. The issue that comes into play is when your converting and splitting VGA to S-video or RCA. There is severe loss of image quality.

 

Two of the five are.....the one under the hood and the two in the trunk are not.....standard Video input only. But there are ways around resolution loss....S-video should not offer any resolution loss but the RCA will. Now if you take a video amplifier to the other screens using RCA it improves the image drastically......not as good as VGA but there is a noteable difference. Another way is to upgrade your video card....i wont even begin with that topic in fear it may confuse people some.....but i know for sure that the video amplifiers work with just some plug and play effort.

Good to know. I'll be switching out my headrest monitors for some VGA touchscreens later on when I install my leather package

 

Looks great, do you do installs?
