inm Posted September 17, 2012 Report Share Posted September 17, 2012 I'm gonna quote myself from my build thread, I feel like I'll get better help in this section, no one looks at my build. Fun Fact: The headunit I have doesn't have a subwoofer level setting... It just has on and off. So now it's time to find a new headunit. This time I'm gonna try not to cheap out. Anyone care to give me some suggestions? I want a 7" screen, iPod/USB, and CD/DVD. I found a Pioneer that I LOVE but it doesn't have CD/DVD... Anyway, not looking to spend more than like $500, so any suggestions will definitely be appreciated.

rockFord_Expedition Posted September 18, 2012 Report Share Posted September 18, 2012 Checkout the Pioneer AVH-P4400BH as well as the 8400. You'll have to shop around but you can get where you want to be price-wise. I got the 8400 for $475 + tax Old School/New School RF Build March 2015 SOTM Winner How to crimp large wire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only problem I have is that it's not a CD/DVD player. That being said, can you play video from USB? I only want CD/DVD for movies. If I can just play them from USB then that's not needed.

inm Posted September 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 18, 2012 Everything I'm reading says the 8400 doesn't have CD/DVD... Interesting. None the less, it does do video from USB? If you don't mind, can you test it personally and tell me? I don't know of many that can that. edit- Wow, I am STUPID. Looked again and it does CD/DVD... Idk wtf I was reading. Thanks a ton, I think I know which HU I'm getting now.

rockFord_Expedition Posted September 18, 2012 Report Share Posted September 18, 2012 I can assure you that it does video from USB, have used it many times. It's the hu I have in my Expedition Edit: it comes a USB cable, but if you have an iPod I would buy the iPod cable. Let me know if you want any help with it, including the parking brake bypass.

Alright cool, cool. What formats will it play? The ones I need, or would like, are MP4, AVI, WMV, and MKV. Do I have to do anything special for the parking brake bypass? My current HU was as simple as grounding the parking brake cable out, but I know some units require other stuff.

rockFord_Expedition Posted September 18, 2012 Report Share Posted September 18, 2012 Mkv is the only one I can't say for sure... This hu wants to sense "on-off-on" from the parking brake.. You can use a relay or if you want to connect the green wire to ground you can, you just need to put a switch on the wire. I chose to go with a hidden switch for mine.

The way I'm reading this, I would need to flip this switch twice everytime I start the car, to be able to watch video? Or am I reading this completely wrong?
