Well I rolled the dice and got one of these INNOVATEK IN-5300BTVI http://www.mp3playerstore.com/player...BTVI/front.jpg.

I know there have been quality issues.......basically I know I bought crap. I plan on updating this once I get it in about a day. I know this is an old thread but I'd rather just keep this here since someone already revived it

i use the reversing camera and 2 x 9.5" headrest screens. all works great except i also have no volume on tv. i run the dual antenna colour is fine just no audio.
apart from the tv audio issue the unit has been great. i have 2 x 500RMS 2 chan amps in the rear 1 drives rear 6x9 8 way speakers the other a 15" sub. 4 speakers in front only running from headunit.

the correct wiring (took me a while to work it out, should not of read the instructions lol )

BLUE ~ remote for amps i also use to wake headrest screens. can be used for antenna i chose to switch my antenna manually because i like it down when cd or dvd is in play. will remain up as long as headunit is switched on

PINK ~ backsight 12v connect the power wire from reversing camera to reverse light active run a 3way joint and connect the same wire to the backsight wire from headunit (its probably labeled wrong but trust me its the pink wire ) when you select revers regardless of what the headunit is doing cd dvd tuner it will auto switch to reverse camera and say backsight on screen.

ORANGE ~ the brake light wire. lots of confusion over this wire. if you dont care about being stopped by the police and busted dont bother to connect the wire front screen will play constantly. to be legal wire the orange wire to the 12v active side of the handbrake switch NOT THE EARTH SIDE. the way this works; when the handbrake is off (being nuetral switched) there will be 12v on the GLOBE side of the switch. this 12v will place the headunit screen into a black state with a text warning saying something similar to "WARNING Stop to Watch" if you have extra screens they will not see message and will continue to watch the dvd, it only effect the headunits front screen.
when the handbrake is ON the 12v will go to ground and u will have 0v the screen now functions on the headunit as the 12v is removed.
some ppl have said direct wire the brake to earth to watch regardless of brake, is no point its not the earth thats making the screen function its the disapearence of the 12v waiting to find its earth.
i have wired mine to handbrake to keep the australian law happy and my wallet thicker

but due to my front passenger wanting to watch the dvd also i have the wire from handbrake going through a secret switch which does nothing more than open and close the wire from handbrake to dvd unit. closed is legal open circuit is illegal but screen works 24/7. again its not an earth making the screen work its the removal of the 12v from handbrake.

The guy with the dimming screen when subs hit a deep note, get yourself a 2 Farad capacitor install close as posable to the amp, will solve your problems. i run a 1.6 Farad under the dash and a 10Farad in boot for the 2 500RMS amps. i also run a battery stabalizer and upgraded my earth system to everything important (altenator, fuel injection, head lights, thermo fans ect) there cheap to buy and work great. especially on new cars with a million engine sensors, keeps the readings constant and correct.

i noticed i have crapped on a fair bit here if i am not clear enough you are welcome to send me an email for assistance wiring diagrams or install photos,
Cheers DaSnake

final words for the money its a great unit, i only intend on keeping it for a year until something better is out.

My son just bought a innovatek in-dash dvd player from eBay, and I told him that he cannot watch dvd's while driving and that the machine prevents it anyway. However, for some reason, the parking break feature doesnt work, and the dvds play while in gear and on the road. Does anybody know the code i can type in using the remote to turn this feature on so he doesn't kill himself? thanks.
