I had rear camera problem with my RK3188/1GB unit but now discovered that is a general video-in issue.
Rear camera works well when I start the car. When the head unit warms up rear camera video does not show up anymore. The screens shows an exclamation point indicating now video signal.
Today I tested video-in (AVIN) and Front Camera (F-Cam) input, and the same problem happened for both inputs: working when car starts and no signal after warming up.
In all tests, I used an external working video RCA input to make sure video signal is 100% OK.
I believe this is a circuit board problem and but do not know which board is at fault.
Is it coreboard? If I upgrade to another coreboard (8-core/4GB) could the problem be fixed?
Any help is much appreciated.

This may not be issues in settings. You may press default button in settings to get back to the original settings.
In my case I know it is due to defective hardware and heat caused the video unresponsive to signals. I opened the box, removed built-in dvd to free some space, and installed a case fan to reduce heat. It is better now and I can get video working if the air temperature does not exceed 22C. On a hot day the video still has the problem.
