Any ipod interfaces that have video out?
Since the Eclipse Ipod interface doesnt work too well with the AVN5500. Is there an Ipod interface that has a video out for the "Music"? I have an Ipod Video, but it only video outs the Movies and Images. I know I would have to control everything from the Ipod but it would be better if I could look at it from the screen on the AVN rather than the small Ipod screen.

Not that I know of. IIRC Pioneer is working on one. Only Ipod Video Ive ever hooked up is in slickricks car (AVH-P6600DVD flip out) and he just used a male minijack to yellow/red/white rca cable plugged into his brain, so he puts movies/music videos on and watches em on the flip out, but has to pick the Ipod up from the cupholder to control whats going on.

Not that I know of either.... in the Apple OS on the ipod video out is only enabled while playing movies/slideshows/pictures... There are some home theater devices which have their own own Apple OS "like" interface on a TV and it just talks to the iPod with the GPIO interface. iPodlinux is coming along, I have used it, they might have video out working on the 5g ipods soon so keep an eye on that www.ipodlinux.org. I bought my ipod thinking i could use its video out in my car but nooooo.... Thats why I have switched to building a car computer... you can still use the ipod as a harddrive that way if you want.
