I recently just figured out that the Sony xav-AX8000, dose have a set video input, but dose have a rca connection for a back up camera, just lacks audio, if your radio dose have the set inputs see if it’s got a camera input, it worked flawlessly for my PS2
Great tutorial . Do you think that an HDMI to USB adaptor works for something like this. This ia in terms on units with only USB inbuilt. I have seen HDMI to USB converters but what I am not sure about whether they can put contents into the head unit or are they only for pushing contents from a USB source to a HDMI input.? Thanks
How good is the picture quality for movies on Netflix etc displaying on the head unit screen? I know this is an old post, but got a new floating screen single din jensen with RCA inputs - didnt want to spend $1000+ on some fancy top of the line unit for a $2500 grand Cherokee. In theory - if i got this setup, could i plug in a chromecast device to it, give the Chromecast onboard power, and use chromecast with a remote and give it hotspot internet from my phone and it work?
Great video. But I was wondering if I could get some help since I don’t have this unit. I have a 2016-2019 Toyota Tacoma Entune Premium GPS Navigation Radio in my truck. I’m trying to find a way to add an HDMI port to it so I can hookup a game system but I cant find anything and I don’t know the right questions to ask. What do I need to get to hook it up to my unit?
I have a android phone and followed your process minus the lightning device substituted it with liked item for android. Nothing is still coming on. No mirroring. Do this need a power source to activate?
Many older androids don't support HDMI output through the USB port, it needs to have a type c port to work, and even then some phones just flat out don't do it.

Hi! I believe so. I'm gonna try hooking up my Android *Galaxy* *S8+* to the iSimple HDMI Cable with my USB-c 2 HDMI Dongle (which I already use inside the house). Will definitely need the small male 2 male joiner adapter. I also wish to try an unorthodox clever method using my *Chromecast* Dongle. What if, after I pull out my *Pioneer* AVH-7800-bt Car Radio and install the iSimple Cable, I hook up a Chromecast Dongle to the HDMI end? This way, I should easily be able to Mirror my Phone Screen or Cast TH-cam Videos all day long. Would definitely free up my phone's USB-C port to get a decent charge going from the cigarette lighter. Next, when I'm getting busy in a Burger King Parking Lot (on a lunch break), I will try to bluetooth my mouse & keyboard and switch back to an *HDMI* connection to see if my Android Pie Version Phone will activate *DEX* .

Bought the exact same items you demonstrated with. Attempted to install them on my 2017 Chevy. Silverado 2500HD. Key word, Attempted. Ended up buying a competitors brand with a USB cord for power and HDMI to Composite module. Worked fine and it was $21.00 at Frys. Old Skool HDMI to AV converter.

Not sure if you're still around, but would you still do the workaround method with the composite module? And was it really draining on your phone battery?

Will there be a drop in resolution when using hdmi this way or will you get original head unit resolution? So in other words, would resolution for this unit (AVH-1300NEX) be 480, or would there be a drop? Thanks!
it would drop, probably to 480. i’m unsure how much it drops but i’m certain that it doesn’t retain the same quality as the rca isn’t able to keep the hdmi quality that transfers
Not sure if you’ll respond to this but I’ve used an HDMI converter to av to plug into head unit for game console. Picture Quality is low . How can I enhance the quality? Would I have to upgrade to a din that has HDMI port? Or would the ISHD01 converter have a cleaner signal?

Does this match exact radio resolution? My dnx996xr I also have the kenwood official ca-c3v will it keep my PlayStation classic at 720p? With no lag in audio?
Any HDMI input works, however if your unit draws any current from the HDMI source, you will need to connect that power into a separate source (sometimes a USB port)
Yes, and typically its going to be a 3.5mm to RCA adapter in addition to the parts we used. All kinda depends on the brand and model of the radio you have.
I’m trying to attempt this, order the hdmi adapter 3 weeks ago, I didn’t get it in the mail yet. Guess cause of the holidays. I’m traveling right know and saw an hdmi adapter for $7 bucks and bought it, but it didn’t work👎
Does it require power? I see same setup like Beulers but it has a box converter that requires power from a USB. Was wondering why that is and what's the difference?
Because the Video input on your model is not an input, it's a video output. Your AV video input is integrated into the 3.5mm Aux input on the back of the radio.
Parts linked in the description!
