Rear View Camera?? - W203 C320......

[sos320]

So then, anyone done this sucessfully??

I've sussed it in the past.... http://forum.bmwcarmagazine.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=23123

...but thought, as I have a new car and all, will be time for a nice new project??

So then, questions questions...

I have just put COMAND 2.0 in the car, which I believe has a RGB input on the back for the TV Tuner option.....do you really need the TV tuner or can you just feed RGB into those sockets?

If I press the TV button at the moment, it know's that a tuner isn't installed....what tells it that there is? Just a signal on RGB or something else?

Is the input NTSC or PAL? On the Beemer, all tuners output in NTSC, even though they decode PAL/NTSC/SECAM etc...

Anyone got a TV tuner, and have ALL the pinouts for it?


That should do for a start, any pointers appreciated.


Cheers....

1/ TV tuner pinout is in the archive - search "pinout"

2/ You need a TV wakeup signal on the TV CAN pins on C2

3/ I already have an interface with automatic switching of reversing camera without the need for a TV tuner to be present with COMAND 2.0 and 2.5

4/ Stay tuned.

Some time next year there will be a product launch. The prototype works fine just need to make it commercial grade. MBENZNL.COM or MERCDOCS.COM may choose to offer the product.
