IceLink for New Video iPod...

[RealShakaZulu]

Alright Dension and Tom G,

Does the current IceLink support the new Video iPod? If not, then when? More importantly... how much of an engineering feat would it be to streat audio and VIDEO from the iPod through a new A/V IceLink to the BMW nav screen. I can only assume that the NavTV crew is busy figuring out the same.

Yes, if it were you or I... but if this is your business and the iPod is the killer appliance, something has to be on the drawing board at least.

The audio [on the video ipod] will work with current kits, the video would require a new kit..

I'm 99% sure it will work fine with the video iPod - our test unit will be in early next week. Video is an entirely different story.

VIDEO from the iPod through a new A/V IceLink to the BMW nav screen

if that feature comes true...

Keep in mind that the video iPod's resolution is pretty low, 320x240 to be exact. When encoding videos, plan to see the usual "blockiness" or artifacting on a larger screen, like a TV.
