Can this be used to connect two separate DVD players to "create" a dual screen set up in the car?

not sure this works. usually a DVD player has A/V (single pin) output jacks to connect to a secondary screen, not to another DVD player. unless one of the DVD players has input and output jacks at the same time which is not common in car DVD systems. so check carefully your DVD players for INPUT & OUTPUT A/V jacks if any.good luck.DJ.

Hello to all the wonderful costumers of Amazon, I work at iSupply and I can answer some of your questions. I would like to start with a advice, if you really need a equation answered your better off asking the seller directly because most them wont respond to this equations. To answer this question, Yes this cable is called a composite cable and the tips are 3.5mm to 3.5mm and they come in two sizes this one witch is 10 feet long and a shorter one that's 6 feet long, the prices are almost the same so I recommend to buy the longer one, its great for bigger cars and suvs and vans. This composite cable transmits audio as will as video and yes it can turn your dvd players into what's called a dual screen dvd set up, but you need to make sure that your player only needs one cable to transmit booth audio and video and it has a separate charging unite as some AV cables are attached to there charging unite from one screen to the other. I hope I was able to answer your question.

If you purchase a second car power plug, you could use these in separate cars as totally separate things. There is only one remote and it works with both units.

Yes, the DVD player can still play over the car speakers with this installed. Of course, it's better to have the passengers wear IR headphones while the driver streams music to the front speakers, which also works. Basically anything you can do with the satellite or RSE sources you can do with the added USB/BT/AUX sources.

You need one dvd or one usb key with movies on it and it could be played on both screens, which is played from one source.

No. I bought one to do the same thing, but it wasn't the correct item because it converts "FROM" VGA, not "TO" VGA. There is another device (it's powered and about the size of a cell phone - it also costs between $25-$35) that converts RCA signals (from your DVD player) to a VGA monitor. You need a VGA cord (both male ends) to connect your monitor to the converter. I am assuming you have an answer for the sound part, since a computer monitor has no sound, with external computer speakers. I needed a splitter that takes the white and red RCA cords (left and right channel sound) out of the DVD player and turns them into a female connector for a standard input/output mic-style jack for my computer speakers.

I'm certainly no electronics expert, but shouldn't you be able to use this to play movies on your TV by hooking the drive up to your laptop, and then running an S-video cable from the laptop to the television, and changing the video output (screen) from the laptop screen to the TV screen? I've never tried it, but it seems like it should work. I use my internal DVD drive on my laptop to play movies on my TV by this method all the time.

no- there is only one unit to play the dvd, but two screens can be viewed in front seat of vehicle and back seat, etc.

If it is an overhead DVD player with just one channel (can only play one movie at a time) then I think it will work. If you have one of the split screen or headrest DVDs that can play two separate movies, then this probably won't work for you. Of course this only applies to factory installed players. It works fine in my 2008 highlander.

Yes. I have them wired that way. Each screen has both rca input and output jacks. You just need to buy a $5 rca cable with yellow, red and white. In can easily be hidden under the seats. I have them hooked so the left can play on both screens or the right can play on both screens.

Hello. Yes! you can connect an additional monitor and play video from this unit onto the separate screen.

Yes. That is exactly what it is for. However, you need to wire the unit to your motorhome for the DVD function to work and switch. Their instructions are terrible in general and misleading on this,

The unit would need a standalone video card to project to two monitors..It is not equipped with the video card..Thanks

No I do not belive so. I use this to switch between an Xbox and PS3 on either a computer screen or TV. It has two inputs and outputs but can only choose one of each at a time. Your situation is more complicated and will probably need a combination of a switch and a splitter but to be honest I can't quite figure out how that would work.

No you can not unless your comfortable with wires being cross crossed over or by their heads. I def wouldn't recommend. Both screens will only work when the seconds is plugged into the main screen.

I don't think so. The wifi on your dvd player is probably for connectivity. What you need is something that generates a wifi network that the receiver will detect and connect to.

The unit supports two computers switching to a single output, a projector in my case and allows you to toggle back and forth via the remote. It monitors the ports for active output devices before it will switch the port on. I have never tried this setup but connecting a monitor to the input will not trigger the unit to enable that port so I don't think it will work.
