Navigation Crack
 
Hi everyone

U see i got the Navigation system along with my Mazda 3s. I really enjoy it, but it doesnt play DVD !!!! "its illegal to play dvd while driving". Such a bullshit, i want to watch it while i park in a nice area and watch a dvd. I was wondering anyone know how to crack that system so you can play dvd.

Thanks :)

I've heard of this not being able due to the fact that dvd movies require Mpeg4 codec to veiw video, the dvd vav stuff is just typical computer stuff....sorry I don't know the technical info but thats what it is....you could always remove the factory audio and just use the video input for the dvd as a monitor for your add-on dvd player.

What is the instruction to do that???

Do i have to purchace anything to watch dvds? like extra adapters?

did you not read what I just posted??

I'm going to leave this up to an audio mod....

I would be extremely interested to hear what an audio mod has to say about this. Does anyone know if the feed to the video screen for the GPS actually has a standard RCA plug coming out of the back of the dvd reader? If it did - adding on would be a cakewalk!

Anyone? - Anyone?.....Bueller?....lol

splicing on a RCA connector isn't difficult at all. It's figuring out which wires in the harness are your video signals and ground. It's only 2 wires...a signal and a ground. Just follow the line to the screen and splice in there. Use a voltmeter to determine the ground and the other is your video.
