Tune2Air with Video2Nav

Sabor · 02-22-2015, 10:12 PM

Hey, I was wondering if anyone can think of a solution for this problem I am having.

I have a bimmertech module with video input and I use my Ipod to watch music videos on my nav screen. I also have a viseo tune2air bluetooth adapter which allows me to have steering wheel controls to skip tracks to the Ipod. I also get detail information on nav screen. Everything works great.

The problem I am having at the moment is that when I shut down my car and turn it back on with the ipod video adapter connected, the tune2air doesnt read as it should anymore and all I have is regular bluetooth audio but no longer with steering wheel controls or media information. I was wondering if anyone can think of a solution where it will allow the ipod to read the bluetooth first so that the tune2air device can read my Ipod first before using the video adapter as the source. In order for me to fix this, I would have to disconnect the ipod from the video adapter and then reconnect it in order for the bluetooth to read the device again. Its pretty annoying

There may be a more elegant solution, but you could probably use something like this in line with the video adapter's power supply.

Yay, figured it out. If anyone interested in having video from iPod with steering wheel controls, shoot me a pm.

Can you post the solution here? I'm not looking to do that now, but might on my next car

yeah it was pretty simple actualy. I had an aftermarket video connector adapter that was used on my ipod before and it would not allow tune2air to read my ipod. I had an OEM apple video adapter in my closet and decided to test it out and sure enough it worked perfectly.

1. modmynav module (bimmertech now i think)
2. tune2air bluetooth
3. ipod touch or whatever device that uses 30 pin connector
4. ipod oem video adapter

you get video on nav screen, fast forward, entertainment details, steering wheel controls with those 4 things.
