I am trying to view my videos on my iphone5 on the screen. Is there anyway to do this? I know bluetooth wont work, but willing to use cables. Ideas?

Hi AK, Video playback compatible with iPod with video, iPod Classic, iPod nano 1st through 5th gen., iPod Touch 1st & 2nd gen., iPhone, iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS, iPhone4 and iPhone4S require purchase of optional XA-RC202IPV control cable. - Jerome

Mine did the same thing. I gave a negative review for that reason and Amazon deleted the review. If you put your iPhone in flight mode some of the videos will work, some will still not. The Seller wanted me to download a program that would require me to jailbreak my phone. I was not down with that. Then the seller sent me another cable because of the negative review. It worked the same as the first.

late but relevant: There is an iPad/iPhone lightning-to-HDMI adapter available for around $40 that should work just fine with this.

Is anyone sure that Netflix will stream to this tv with the iphone 4. I read on another site that it will not. Also, would it possibly stream after the next iphone update which expands airplay.

Sorry, but I don't support Apple products. I can connect my Android devices though. Maybe you can Google how to connect your iphone to a projector. It does have a memory card in case if you want to watch movies/pics, etc. It's also great for presentations.

But does it work with Netflix? The Netflix app apparently doesn't have the ability to output video in iphones 3 and older , but that theoretically it should with the iphone 4. Anyone know?

Mine came with the iPhone 4 adapter. But I think Apple disabled video playback through the lightning connector with the iPhone 5 anyway.

There is a 30 pin to Lightning adapter from Apple, but it only works for adapting the charger and the syncing cable. Apple shows on their site that it does not work at all for display mirroring. So there is no solution to connect to a newer Apple device since there are no other cables available for it.

Yes you can make videos and they come out pretty well. As for fitting iphone5 mine will not but there maybe one on amazon. Just look up iphone5 8mm telescopic lens and tripod.

the only way to hook up anything (other than a pre iphone 5)is to connect via VGA. For this you need a VGA adapter from your device- be it an iPhone 5 or a macbook-AND a VGA to projector cable. And there's the problem, the proprietry VGA to projector cord is almost impossible to get since I bought my projector. Great little device, but I can't get a VGA cable. My advice is locate a cable first, or buy a different model. I am pretty disappointed I bought this, i was pretty excited at the use I could out it to at work and home, but it's instead barely been used.

Check your "airplay" settings while in the media player. If your phone is synced to the Bluetooth headset it should show as an option in airplay selection. I have not used them with IOS 7 yet. If you have 7 might be a compatibility issue with the ios.

Hi, I installed this system about 2 weeks ago. It's great but no, you can only view the live stream from an iPhone. To review recorded footage, you will need to do it on the DVR connected to a tv/monitor. Hope this helps.

Are you connecting you ipod touch through the USB port? You also have to set the stereo to AUX hear the ipod play. I'm using an ipod classic 80 GB and works for me...just no video. Once the stereo connects to the ipod all your play lists, etc will come up on the stereo screen. I just bought an adapter to be able to watch video from you ipod as well but have't installed it yet. Hope this helps

It me again, I was able to set up the speaker with my daughter's iPhone5, easily done. Then I attempted to connect my laptop. It was discovered and connected but still would not play. Weird???? Hope you get some other responses

Hi, Great question. You just have to use your iPhone cable. Thanks, ImagineGear

I have a Lightning connector iPhone 5 and 5s. The Bluetooth model comes with an interchangeable socket (like the old iPod docks used to) so you can fit your phone in, then pair it over Bluetooth. No cable connection needed. (I also have a 30-pin model that I use with my iPhone 4S, and and while that configuration it does let you pass power through, most of the time I use these outdoors anyway, and the power draw for rotation seems pretty tiny). It'll run longer than any video you'd want to shoot with it (or any video anyone would want to watch).

It's important to know which particular connector cord you're using, & what you're trying to achieve. If you're trying to play music or Netflix/YouTube Player, the red/white/yellow cords must be plugged into the audio/video input outlets on the tv, and select audio/video input or output 1 or 2 (depending on which you plug into) If you wish to only play photo slide shows, then it's generally the HDMI USB port(& selecting the usb option with your remote). Not knowing what you're attempting to play, I recommend trying each cord and using your remote audio/video input/output settings - to experiment FYI: I use this for both my iPad AND iPhone - have not yet tried with dig. camera, but that's the same pretty much, as using your iphone to display the pics Mine actually works best with playing Netflix thru my iPhone, as the iPad has an angled port, and setting the iPad down with the cord in, requires that the edge of the pad with cord in, has to hang over the edge of your t.v. stand, to not interfere with the connection. Honestly, I LOVE this device - I would NOT give up or get frustrated - it took me a whole day to figure the thing out (because I'm too impatient to read, and don't always trust instructions)
