Video input - EPIA-V

**Zebelkhan** · 01-20-2005, 09:29 PM

Did a search on this but didn't come up with anything.

I have a EPIA-V mini itx that does not have an RCA jack for video input. I noticed pins on the board for video connection. Is there an easy way to connect a back-up camera to it?

Thanks in advance for all your input.

Not that I know of, I've seen this too and IIRC it's not a composite video in, and to compound things it doesn't have any drivers available for download.

stevieg is correct. It's not a video input, it's headers for a composite video out. Most people get an inexpensive wide-angle camera and connect it directly to the screen's composite video....

Thank you. I was hoping my carputer would control my camera. Right now I have a camera directly connected to my lilliput but I have no way of automatically switching to Video (from VGA) and switching back. Well, actually I have installed a mechanical relay that switches from VGA to video 1 when I go to reverse but then from there it switches to video 2 when I come out of reverse. I do not have enough electronics knowledge to construct a switch that would either switch directly back to VGA or switch twice to go past video 2 and stop on VGA.
