No landscape mode for watching video on iPhone? So there's no way to place the iphone in landscape mode, on its side so that you can use the T612 while watching a movie? That seems like a big limitation. The cheaper DLO speakers let you do that, though it doesn't have a dock or remote. And this looks promising: http://www.livespeakr.com/.

Ok, you can use the aux jack in the back if necessary and , long enough, can hold the Iphone to your nose...but , again, why do that? Tether it to your TV with other devices.

Cause I can't fit my widescreen tv in my bathroom ;-). I guess it's usually not a movie. I like to watch video news podcasts while getting ready in the morning.

I bought mine last night. The OSD is a bit weak and archaic. We can only hope that future software upgrades improves the look and feel of the OSD interface. Honestly, I believe it is easier to navigate media with the iphone app. I hope someone can upload better quality photos for you :) http://img695.imageshack.us/slideshow/webplayer.php?id=32272981.jpg

think it might be an iOS version issue. This was working a couple months afo, but when I recently tried it, it played audio but no video.

This is made for the iPad, so the corner won't fit. However, if you turn the stand in the upright, or portrait orientation and then turn your iPad mini sideways or landscape, you can rest it against the bottom rubber corners. This works fine if you're watching a movie, but if you want to turn your mini to reading view you can't use the stand.

Haven't ever tried to use it with iphone, so can't help, sorry. Have you seen the youtube demo on the equipment? I found it helpful

I haven't tried it but with converters you can do about anything. Apple products in my experience are the easiest to use any kind of video and convert it on the way in but like I said I haven't tried it.

The direct plugin at the top is only for previous Iphone and Ipod generations. But it has an audio plugin, so if you just buy a two way audio cord, (on amazon for like 5 bucks, you can hook up any phone/mp3/laptop etc.). It's really a great product! Even has some solid base!

None. Its an interesting question though. Considering you cannot playback movies on the device directly, unless you stored audio files there isn't a need for one.

Mine did the same thing. I gave a negative review for that reason and Amazon deleted the review. If you put your iPhone in flight mode some of the videos will work, some will still not. The Seller wanted me to download a program that would require me to jailbreak my phone. I was not down with that. Then the seller sent me another cable because of the negative review. It worked the same as the first.

It me again, I was able to set up the speaker with my daughter's iPhone5, easily done. Then I attempted to connect my laptop. It was discovered and connected but still would not play. Weird???? Hope you get some other responses

I just tried this out. Applications that have a landscape mode are (mostly) forced into landscape and mirrored on the screen. I tried Vine, for example, and it displayed in landscape or portrait based on the handset's orientation, just as if it wasn't plugged in to the display (landscape was mirrored on the external display, as was portrait, but the portait was upright. I'll upload a picture to show how that looks.

cool thanks a bunch! Haven't ordered one yet, been reading the reviews first. I just got an I-touch and wanted something to listen to it on other than the earplugs. Has anyone tried the video output to the t.v yet?

I really don't know since I haven't tried to hook it up with iphone - it does show display on the computer and if not connected to the computer the light changes to green when you have attained the proper balanced state - so while its red you still have work to do is how I take it - then when I consciously practice I can get it to change to green but don't know about iphone - maybe try their site and calling someone

But does it work with Netflix? The Netflix app apparently doesn't have the ability to output video in iphones 3 and older , but that theoretically it should with the iphone 4. Anyone know?

Think of it this way. Any format your iphone can play (mp4 for example), this unit can handle. So, you cannot, out of the box, stream an avi file to your iphone from it. You must convert the avi to mp4 first. Not because the drive can't handle avi, but because the phone can't. If you need a converter check out Smart Converter for Mac.

I hate mp4 format...I agree completely; that's the one thing that has kept me from buying any Apple device...I don't want everything in my audio library converted and not be able to play it on other systems. This is proprietary warfare and I'm not bowing down to Apple...

I don't have an Ipad but I have an Ipod touch that I use for Podcasts and Audiobooks and it works fine with that because it plugs into the earphone jack. I have a tablet on which I watch video and tried that. It really is the same when the device is plugged into the audio jack so that you could listen to the movie while it was playing on your Ipad and it would come through the car speakers. I guess I never thought of watching a video because that would be difficult while driving. If your thinking of better sound for a passenger while watching a movie that would work. Hope this helps. i use mine all the time and I've had it at least 5 or more years.
