Me parece que el adapatador para el ipod es muy malo ya que la forma como controlas el ipod con el reproductor es demasiado incomodo, ya que yo he tenido otras pantallas que manejan ipod y esta es la peor, aunque el repro en si no es malo

I bought this device expecting full controlling my IPod Video via JVC KD-HDR1 head unit but after installation got only charging and sound transfer from IPod to head unit. VERY disappointed but at list I can listen music.

This adapter was really easy to install (provided that you still have the key to remove your head unit) and has excellent sound quality. I would recommend disengaing the Ipod to manipulate the library as opposed to using the JVC control. The JVC controls are easy to figure out yet difficult to use, but that “drawback” is minor compared to value and utility.

I have a JVC head unit which plays MP3’s off of the CD… this was great for audio books, but I wanted to be able to continue the book while doing things like mowing the lawn, so I bought this adapter to let me bring my books with me. The adapter itself is a bit bulky, luckily my Dodge Ram has a nice spot behind and below the stereo in the dash for storing it, and I was able to snake the iPod end into the cubby hole below the stereo. It was ridiculously easy to install. I struggled a bit with the interface, trying to find the book I wanted stored on it (the rudimentary display only gives the first 8-10 characters of the title), but eventually figured it out… not the best, but I guess it’s serviceable. The sound quality is really quite excellent, and when you activate the iPod function on the stereo, it begins playing immediately where you left off (no waiting for a disk to spin up, etc). But, a major disappointment I came across was when my iPod ran out of battery and shut down. Apparently, it does not charge my model of iPod.
For the most part, I’m happy with this purchase, but I really do think that JVC/Apple could improve on it… the bulky adapter is a nuisance, but the cables are long enough to get past that… The iPod end is large and could use some sort of disconnect to make it easier to fish through your dash, but I got past that easily enough. The lack of charging on my iPod could force me to reconsider, however.
