Will this device work with external controls e.g previous/next track buttons on the dock or steering wheel?

No it doesn't work with controls on the dock. You'll have to control it on the device you're playing the music from to move tracks or change volume.

The steering controls worked for my 08 xB and the 4th gen iPod I use. I got rid of the item due to the noise that it added. I use a new stock cable without the charging capabilities and just bring the iPod in once a week to charge... much better than this pos.

yes and no. They recommend buying the wired one and downloading this driver to make it work. http://tattiebogle.net/index.php/ProjectRoot/Xbox360Controller/OsxDriver then buying an app that allows you to map the buttons. I use Joystick Mapper. But I found that a lot of games on steam that says controller support for windows, I had a hard time getting it to work for mac. A lot of trying to figure out what the buttons are, then mapping them.

I believe so. My vehicle does not have steering controls for phone but all other audio steering wheel functions work perfectly, including audio streaming from an iPhone 5.

It does work with steering wheel controls , but If you have a BOSE system, like I do, this will not be strong enough to provide sound to your car.

Yes it will work with steering wheel controls, BUT, you need to buy a separate unit and wire it in in order to do that. I purchased a unit from Metra to retain the steering wheel button functions. Wiring did not take long and programming was pretty simple.

Mathew, Apparently this car player has the capability to get conected wired to a Steering wheel control, but not sure if it can get connected to a universal control or to the built in car control.. I dont have Steering wheel control on my car so I can't assure you of that. Sorry

As long as your car has the 30 pin (apple style) cable, which plugs into an iPhone or ipod; then YES this will work for you. Whether or not your steering controls will work, is truly hit or miss.. some do, some don't.

This deviceoes not require a 'controller' - its support is builtin to Windows 7 and up; and probably also in XP. My machine recognized it w/o anything else.

I'm using it with my iPod Nano. One click toggles stop/go. Two clicks moves to beginning of next track. Three clicks moves to beginning of current track.

Works with the headphone jack, I think Gen 6 has the lightening connector if I'm right so you won't be able to control it with the steering wheel nav buttons.

We use this adapter with our iPods in our Hyundai Accent and we can use the dash controls. I don't know about the wheel controls as our car does not that. It tells the name of the song and the album/singer name on the radio dial. Works great highly recommend!

No. You lose the factory Bluetooth hands-free controls. The Bluetooth functionality of the unit is below the OEM standard; disappointing. The only steering wheel controls that work with this unit are the channel change, volume control and Mode change.

Only if you donwload the drivers for the central console from producer and also works well with virtual dj, moreover with tracktor I could not use in windows 7.

yes. It works fine but there are no drivers to activate accessory keys. Track pad, volume and function keys all work.

Mostly yes, that's more game-specific, you'll probly want an external remapping app such as joy2key or Xpadder for some games.

I think another user posted on it, but their post is missing. I looked into this option and all you have to do is purchase a compatible steering wheel control adapter and then it will work. Pioneer makes one , the PAC SWI-PSv1 that should work, and there is also the Axxess ASWC-1 Universal controller that would work.
