Lillipot 8in Questions

looneeii · 12-07-2005, 12:43 AM

1. With everyone saying it has 2 video inputs and this photo showing 1 yellow rca connection...

how can I get a rear-view camera running on c-video 1 when i have my dvh-7000p pioneer deck running on c-video 2 and my car pc on vga?

2. If running the 8in on the cigarette plug-in temporarily, will it drain my battery if left plugged in all night after successfully completing the auto-on mod?

That is right: Red is C-Video 1 and Yellow is C-Video 2 (Although the manual says it's the other way, but it's not). The white S-Video connector is S-VIDEO in, and the white RCA connector is audio in (mono). Mine seems to work great, and after changing the factory settings to auto power on, it still shuts off automatically when the VGA signal is lost.

Nice so red is video 1 and yellow is 2 and then I can leave it pulgged into the cigarette lighter for now without draining my battery.

it will still draw power in standby. Like any TV left in standby. It will be a smalll amount but I would not leave it on for a long time.

how long is a long time? And if I power it off won't it stay off?

There will still be a small current draw...there should be a little LED glowing for example. However, I think it'd be weeks before it'd make any noticeable difference.

I Dont Reccomend You Powering It Off The Cigg Lighter. Power It Off The Opus...theres A Difference. When You Do It Off The Cars Dirty 12v Source It Will Flicker. If You Clean Up The 12v Buy Using The Opus Its Picture Perfect!

Actually I have the opus setup but have to find a nice spot for the honking thing in my GT...for now though, the cig lighter adapter doesn't flicker as there is a fuse in between and it provides a very clear picture to be honest. I can take some vid clips if ya like...
