Me again,
I have got an MDA II with TomTom Nav 3 and some CCD parking/surveillance cameras (PAL video output) with TFT display in my car. Both disps are fixed to my dashboard, although I just need one at a time. Is it imaginable to get the PAL signal onto the MDA (e.g. via USB video capture device)?
So long
The back pack does that using composite video out or S video.
BackPack
Thanks, but I think the back pack does the opposite. I don't want video out - I would like to use my MDA II as display for my cameras, so I would need video IN.

Well, we have Web Camera Plus which allows phone webcam to be a wireless webcam via WiFi at a much higher resolution of 320 x 240 compared to 176 x 144 using the phone camera recording software ( on my HTC Tornado )
Hence, its much clearer if I record some clips using PC via WiFi or BT ( through WebCameraPlus) but the drawback is that WebCameraPlus does not capture audio.
If only it can capture audio as well, it would be great, we can even use our phone as a complete web conferencing device for MSN Messenger or other IM without the need for a separate mic.
So is there any sofware that can do that?
I've been looking for the same thing but haven't found anything yet.
So I would kill to have a windows mobile based car stereo all around - one that can benefit from regular rom updates and software made avialable for the platform. Example would be, say all the features of say the touch pro/ATT FUZE, with a built in amp and maybe dvd player attached to a 7" touchscreen...
It's not hard to get a screen that matches the resolution of the newer Touch pros at WVGA. The audio can be routed through a small amp - GPS is already built, so is mp3, attach bluetooth keyboard, bluetooth OBDII, FM Radio, etc etc. Not sure how the DVD would be wired in though
The core of my question is, do the touch screens used in cars like this one have the capability to work in this application
http://www.lilliputweb.net/ts629.html
It has a 4 wire resistive touch screen and wvga resolution...
Is it possible to somehow (even if dissassembly and hard wiring were an option) to get the output from the TP main board onto this display. I would imagine the signal strength from the TP is kinda low compared to the output from a computer so that might pose a problem, but i want to believe that at some point the required inputs of this screen for display are similar to those on the TP vga and the output from the TP display for touch screen functionality is similar to the out of the LCD display for touch screen functionality?
What do you guys think.

Check out this site if you haven't already. I have been looking to do this for a LONG time.

Having a touch screen in-dash video screen which could connect to a windows phone, and somehow "tap into" the touch-sensitive controls of the phone would be a dream. I currently use a touch pro and I have a pioneer in-dash dvd/cd player which is a touch screen. I also have the video out cable for the touch pro and use it to watch slingbox in the car as well as use the phones gps. I constantly find myself touching the screen to control the phones functions with no success as the cable only sends the video and audio into the composite input, it’s such a hard habit to break! I’m sure eventually the phone will be fully integrated, I guess until then all we can do is dream.
No way to do it without a carputer. No way to hook a touch screen display directly to the TP.
Even with a carputer, the closest you'll get to touch screen capability is using MyMobiler (or similar) and it will be laggy as hell. You could connect the video/audio from the TP to the monitor, but there's no way to get touch screen working.
If you want to use the phone as stereo, just get 3.5mm -> RCA adapters and hook it into your CD player's AUX input.
Using a TP in the manner the OP stated is way over complicating things. Just get a carputer and be done with it.
re:
Most of the features will work through PAN, so you wouldn't have to touch the phone at all.
The idea I had, was to have wireless in the carputer and just transfer the songs I wanted from my pc to the car. I would have wake on lan enabled, so the pc wasn't running all the time. Plus, there are soft, shutdown modules if the voltage gets too low.
There is a ton of possibilites, and if you are good at programming, microsoft has the sdk available for sync.
Also, I have a lot of internal contacts for stereo equipment, for high-end. Usually 40%-60% off retail.
Imagine getting a better subwoofer than the JL audio W7 for half the price
So I spent some time searching and looking around on the forums and couldn't seem to find an answer (for starters, everything was about TVs), so here we go:
I am trying to hook my TF up to a 1080p capable 25" computer monitor via HDMI. The picture shows up, but it seems to be a much lower resolution just blown up to fit the 1920x1080 size (possible the native 1280x800). I notice that when the TF switches to HDMI mode, a small black bar appears along the bottom, which I presume auto-corrects it to 1280x720 for 720p output. However, while playing GTA III, I notice that on the computer monitor, everything looks quite pixelated, much worse than an actual 720p signal. I also tested watching a TV episode I have stored on a microSD card using MX Video Player and the video resolution on the computer monitor was just as bad as GTA III.
Is there any way to get the TF to output an actual 720p signal (or even a 1080p signal if possible)?
Bump
Nobody's tried connecting to a computer monitor? I don't have an HD TV to test with
Hi fellas,
I fly FPV and I wanted to use my Infuse to record the AV footage by splitting the video cable which goes to my monitor to my hdmi chord/dongle for the infuse.
The AV equipment has low resolution 640x480 if I'm lucky.
Would this idea work? There is no audio as my transmitter does not have a mic but If I could use a screen capture software on my phone to record my flights that would be fantastic. Is this possible? To use the HDMI dongle as an AV in to stream live video on my phone (assuming there is an app) basically using my phone as a DVR.
Thanks for any helpful response.
no but it would be cool to use a transmitter as reciever.... I mean if a PC needs a dedicated video capture device rather than the monitor-out going both ways then why would a cell phone be likely to work like that? if USB hosting gets figured out in the kernel and a USB video capture device was used the sure but the mhl is a 1 way device as far as anyone knows.
you may as well get a laptop and usb video capture card then copy the file to the phone.
Guess the laptop is as good as any it's a shame though
The transmitter that I was talking about is the transmitter on the aircraft transmitting the image which is being viewed on a monitor
I destroyed my gopro in a crash so I was looking for alternate solutions without having to buy anything as I am dirt poor
thanks a lot for your input
I was playing a YouTube video on my LG V10 in the same room as my smart TV (which was on) an tapped an icon on top, of a TV with sound coming from the bottom left corner. My TV started playing the YouTube video on the tv screen. Video & Audio. Now if I can figure out how to make it work with TV & Movie downloads!

Umm... A2DP a protocol for stereo audio and control via Bluetooth...
I think what you meant was DLNA...
The tag that came up when it was playing said "BluetoothA2DP". I assume that means that someone has improved it in the 10 years it's been around.
In fact, I cannot find a single article anywhere about a Bluetooth profile for streaming video as it is such low bitrate. That's why aptX was such a big deal, it improved quality while lowering the bandwidth requirements, for audio.
As for the icon you describe, this is what it is for:
https://www.youtube.com/pair
https://support.google.com/youtube/answer/3230451 (yes it says iOS, but it is the page for all devices.)
"If your TV or games console supports connecting over Wi-Fi, your device will be visible on the Connected TVs screen on your phone, tablet or computer. It isn't possible to remove devices connected over Wi-Fi from your Connected TVs list."
So you may have connected automatically with no manual setup.
