Connecting my DVD RCA jacks to the Aux-In of the Stereo

t: Any suggestions as to what I have to do to make this work? Get a 12v DVD player. It's the inverter causing you the trouble. I'm not at all confident that you'll be able to effectively eliminate it on the boat. I've got a 12v player in our 348 Vista and it's great. I actually use the AUX-in on the DVD player to daisy chain input from an iPod. That and you're likely to get better battery life using a 12v player anyway. But if the player already uses an external power supply you may be able to use a DC-to-DC transformer to adapt to whatever voltage it needs. But if you want to just cut to the chase and get things working I'd dump the AC/inverter setup and just get a player designed for auto/rv/marine use. -Bill Kearney I've been through about 3-4 DC based DVD players and haven't found one that compares to the AC based Sony that I settled on. The Sony plays everything flawlessly. I'll work on it from the isolation standpoint. If the problem is a ground loop, it seems that there's no reason to assume that the isolation transformer won't solve it. -- Geoff |
