Need video out sync cable?

Bulldog · 05-22-03, 01:15 AM

I read a lot of forums do a lot of searching and generally trying to be informed. I have not heard of any mention of the following though....

I need a cable that will attach to the sync port and will give me a video out feed. I just want to be able to have the screen of my axim appear on another screen, in my car. I already have it set up to play mp3's through the Rockford deck on aux1 but if I could put in a video, I could then watch movies and have sound through the car system. Like having a laptop with dvd but much smaller. Then when I go wireless, oh the possiblities....

Thanks for any info

Don't think you can push video through that port, but there are "tons" of CF VGA out cards you can buy.

I hadn't even considered that. I will look into it. That however leads to another question.

How much memory does your average movie take up when re-encoded using the methods mentioned on this site. I have pocket tv and pocket mvp, haven't figured out how to use them but all in good time.

Sorry to keep this thread going but....

I have looked several places and can't seem to find any CF VGA cards, what sites will carry them?

Thanks for the help!
