Very nice looking unit and I'm glad to see the positive reviews. I almost got the AVH-P4000DVD for my S14 and now I wish I had!
I got the FH-P8000BT instead due to budget and it's built in Bluetooth.
Now I'm researching for upgrading the audio on my G and I'm considering the AVH-P6000DVD. I know it's twice the price of AVH-4000DVD, but it has in-dash 6-disc changer like my OEM unit, which is a very attractive feature for me.
Does anyone else have any experience or knowledge about the reviews on this unit?

i hate those 6 disc changers. we're heading into a digital age. so something like the Ipod would be much better.

I have a question about the deck that I would like to ask. I recently just installed 2 amps, and a subwoofer along with components. Everything seems to be working fine but I keep getting a beeping sound every once in a while almost like a alarm. I have no clue what the hell it is. I do know its comming from the deck but just cannot pin point from what. It never happened until I installed the amps and sub. Open to any suggestions.

does anyone with this deck also have the connectable cd-i200 ipod interface cable?
my question is if you connect an ipod touch to it can you play videos on the deck? if so, are they full screen?
thanks

I have my iPod loaded with videos and plugged in via the USB iPod cable, not RCA. This way, you can browse your video playlists and use the touch screen to control the video rather than having to use the iPod controls themselves. You could use the iPod video cables as well and use the AUX port, but again you'd have to use the iPod itself to control the video rather than the touch screen. The only problem is that the videos have to be in a specific format (I believe it is .mpg) and the right resolution to fit the screen. Other than that, they look great.

I think I misunderstood your earlier post...I thought you were referring to the iPod video capability, not the Zunes. I know it is possible to run the Zune with video, though but as you said, you will have to use RCA cables.

Why exactly cant you have nav with this unit? I like the unit but would like nav? Does everyone mean that the nav just doesnt come alread installed? Could I buy a seperate nav system and just connect it to the monitor?

Sorry to revive this old thread, but i just bought this headunit and am thinking about getting an ipod. Can anyone confirm if the 5g Ipod nanos work with it? (the most current one)
