Pioneer Avic Z-140bh Help*

Grindkiezer · 01-06-2013, 01:07 PM

For the life of me, I cannot figure out the proper format for video playback from my sd card. I have hundreds of movies on my computer and would like to just put a few of them onto and sd card so that I have more options then what's in the actual dvd slot. I have tried mp4 (which has worked for a couple of movies but not the others) m4v, DivX, and avi.

What am I doing wrong?

Does anyone out there have this same unit and could help me out? I have tried numerous conversion programs for mac and still nothing seems to be working, I've changed bit rate and dimensions ans still no luck

I've looked at the hard copies and the cd manual, if it told me how to convert my movie/video files I wouldn't be here now

Not trying to be a D#@K, or say anyone is stupid, just saying I'm sure the info is in there somewhere.

See the section about compatible video types starting at page 221 of your owner's manual (AVIC-Z140BH_OperationManual030212.pdf).
