TH8581NC Front Camera/DVR input
Hello, I have a TH8581NC Android based HU. It has what looks like 3 video inputs. A "Camera In", "F-Camera/Aux Video In"(same cable) and "DVR Video In"
The "Camera In" input works with the backup cam when in reverse. There is a "Recorder" orange video camera Icon on the screen which I believe is a Front Camera / DVR recorder, using either the F-Camera or DVR video input, but neither one picks up video. I have tried a couple cameras. When I touch the Recorder icon, it briefly shows another recorder icon and a "Settings" icon. If I don't touch anything or tap the 2nd recorder icon, they disappear after a couple seconds and goes to the last screen. If I tap the menu button quick enough, I get options for "Storage Path", Resolution choice", "Sound record", "Clip time", "Auto Start", and "Saved File"
It seems to create a folder named "V" in the storage location I've choosen. A couple times it created a file (MP4 I think) in there but it was only about 4KB or so but it would not play, either on the unit, or on another PC.
Is there a program I can use to display video from these video input ports? I am able to view video on the F-Camera/Aux Video input using the AUX (green Icon with headphone plug)
Also, is there an app I can use on my Samsung S3 (work phone so I can't root it) that can mirror my phone to the HU and see & reply to text msgs on ?
Specs are: Cortex-A9 dual core, 1GB ram, Vndroid ver 4.4.4 MCU Ver 4.3.13-1-10-610101-150413 System Ver 2.9.5_20150413.
Thanks..
