The Original i30 Owners Club
GOT PROBLEMS OR ISSUES? => GENERAL => Topic started by: RossC on September 10, 2012, 14:42:21

So apparently after having a wee read of the navigation owner manual, it says on page 35 that video playback is supported via an AUX cable.
It also says you can use video off an ipod via an ipod cable.
I've tried this and cannot get it to work. There seems to be sound but no video.
So i purchased a proper iPod adapter that has the 3.5mm aux plug and usb in one. Now, when thats plugged in the unit cannot be switched to usb mode. Only aux.. Which is fine, but still; sound and no video.
Has anyone else had any luck? :Dunno:
-
It could possibly be codec issues? Best bet is to try a different video format

:whsaid:
They usually give a list of the most suitable codecs .. I must check the manual :winker:
Edit: I had a quick look through the 191 pages of "features of your vehicle" in the European GD i30 Manual and couldn't see any reference to video playback (maybe there is a supplementary leaflet?)
-
Here's a photo of the bit im talking about. Maybe yours is different..? :D
-
... read of the navigation owner manual, it says on page 35 ...
Is this a separate manual for the navigation system?
-
The page numbering is different :undecided: (no mention of codecs or video formats I can see) :Pout:
-

Is this a separate manual for the navigation system?
Mine came with two manuals for the sat nav, one has all the basic functions in it, like Bluetooth functions, radio functions etc. this is the one I'm meaning.
The other one is as thick as a novel and explains how to use the navigation software.
The dealership I purchased the car from doesn't seem to know anything about it..? I might try swing by a different Hyundai dealership and see if they can give any clues.
Would be pretty amazing to get this working :D

Perhaps this may be of some help? :undecided:
It does say that playing video through the USB is not supported....

The video input is through the 3.5mm aux jack from what I can see, not through the USB. The USB may be just used to keep the iPod/iPhone charged.. I'm going to try putting video through the aux jack using a 3xRCA to 3.5mm plug, and an old DVD player just to see if it works..

Good idea :goodjob:

I have a thumb drive in my USB that I play all my music off. iPhone also plugs straight in with genuine cable and you can play music directly off that with steering wheel controls etc
Just wanted to confirm it is not just for charging :)
Also tried a MOV file on the thumb drive which did not work but if through AUX only that would be correct :)

So quite by mistake I came across the veloster forums, which have very similar sat nav units running the same software as the i30 sat nav units..
The units are made by LG and run embedded Windows CE with a nice pretty shell over the top. They have managed to get into the sat nav units running the older software (pre may 2012) but are still working on the newer 'post may' units.
There's video's showing the unit on the windows desk top and running a custom graphic user interface with fully theme able skins including custom wall papers and iPhone themes for the bluetooth on screen phone dialler, and video playback + photo viewing via usb.
So the sat nav units are very capable, but very locked..
When the software becomes available, I'm going to attempt to unlock my unit. I'll post updates :)

Taken directly from the page I was looking at..
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS:
Q. What is this USB Software and what does it do?
A. This software allows you to install files to your USB stick and insert it into your Veloster USB port. It will launch an alternate touch screen interface that allows you to play back videos, use a different music player, customize the look of the LG/Hyundai shell by adding photos, new graphics and customizing your phone menu to match the phone you have. If you have the donation version you can also re-enable the LG/Hyundai test mode, if it is disabled. The USB software is completely independent of the LG/Hyundai Interface, it runs on top of it. Once you remove the USB stick it is gone. Everything now resides and runs from the stick. The only changes made to the head unit is if you apply the enable test mode fix or install a phone skin. Long story short, using this software is untraceable and installs nothing unless you chose to.
Q. What does the phone skin installer do?
A. If you have one of the phones listed (You can request more) then you can run the phone skin installer from the software and it will customize the dialer screen where you make calls when you phone is connected via Bluetooth. It also customizes the screens to show your phone model and the incoming call screen is now customized based on your phone model. All graphics were custom designed and tested for the phones listed.
TEST MODE QUESTIONS:
Q. What is "Test Mode" and what does it do?
A. Test mode is a service menu on the head unit you access by press and holding "INFO/SETUP" for 5 seconds. It allows you to enter various codes like enabling video over AUX input while driving or entering WindowsCE (The operating system that runs the head unit) If you have a new version of the LG software on your Veloster 5.1.28 or above (Car Manufactured after May 2012) your car has test mode disabled. Test mode is already built into the LG/Hyundai head unit. My software only can enable or disable it and does not modify it in anyway. All codes are LG created for diagnostic purposes.
Q. I have the new version of the LG Software that says "Test Mode is for Service Objectives Only" I cannot enter codes.
A. The full version of the Dezoris UI gives you the ability to re-enabled it if you so desire.
Q. I have downloaded your software and run the enable test mode file, do I need your software anymore?
A. No you don't. you can throw out the USB stick and never use it again, test mode will remain active, unless your dealer applies another update to disable it again.
Q. I have re-enabled test mode on my head unit do I have to re-enter codes ever time the car re-starts or use the USB stick?
A. No you don't, if you entered the enable video test code, it stays active when the car restarts, and you don't need the USB stick for anything else unless you want to use it.
Q. I am confused about the test mode code to enable video, is it tied to your software?
A. No test mode is a stock feature that is being disabled by Hyundai because it allowed us backdoor access to customize the head unit. Using the video code to enable video while driving ONLY applies to the AUX Video Input on the car. It has nothing to do with my software. The USB software is completely independent of the head unit. It can run video and music regardless of test mode.
INSTALLATION STEPS:
Q. How do I install this after I download it?
A. Simply download the file you need on a Windows PC, run the installer. Insert a blank USB stick formatted FAT32. Once complete copy your music to the music folder on the USB stick and your videos to the videos folder.
Q. I just installed the software to the USB stick how do I add music and movies?
A. With the USB stick in the PC copy your movie files to the MOVIES folder and music to the MUSIC folder.

Thanks Ross,
That looks very promising ..

So quite by mistake I came across the veloster forums, which have very similar sat nav units running the same software as the i30 sat nav units..

Don't hold me to it but I was told by the dealer (salesman) that the unit in the GD i30 was made by Nokia.
Look forward to your progress on this, very interesting 👍

Seems you can buy the software HERE (http://www.veloster.org/docs/dezoris_shell/1_5_4/dealers/) if you wanna give it a try on the i30's unit.... :undecided:

Yeah, I saw that. :) ill have to give it a try. So far, I've managed to get the nav unit into test mode. If you press and hold the settings button it'll pop up with a detailed description of software, firmware, navigation versions etc.
Once you're on that screen, if you press the center of the screen, just below the right side of the hyundainav URL and you hold for ten seconds it'll put it into test mode. If you enter the code 123456 a whole lot of stuff detailing the nav unit will pop up.
There's lots more service codes you can enter that all do different things, like enabling and disabling features. :)

Sounds like we are starting to get somewhere.. :happydance:

So.. I managed to get into windows.. Check it out!! :happydance:
-
Cool 😃👍👍👍
Nice work!

Damn, another one to get tinted :snigger:
-
So it looks like we can get turn by turn happening! Apparently it just requires a few extra audio files, but it if definitely compatible withy he IGO software. Maybe I'm getting too far ahead of myself.. But this is promising!
-
Congratulations. :goodjob2:
But you are treading where I would fear to tread.

Download this wee file...
http://www.packupload.com/3G37NGUY4K9 (http://www.packupload.com/3G37NGUY4K9)
Pop it on a USB formatted in fat32. I'd probably delete the navi files from it though. pop it in the usb port in your car and it should boot straight past the factory interface into windows. Have fun :)
-
Check this out! It works it works!! :happydance:
This is only the trial (beta) version of the software. The proper version will be released soon. You can download it for free from the link below..

Out of curiosity, how did the RCA to 3.5mm cable go?
My car has a build date of 01/09/2012, so I will be curious to see what I can do with the display/system.

I couldn't get it to work orthough it said you could do it in the book..?

I have a feeling that there is a special cable (Aux to RCA - Yellow, Red, Black) that is available for the Veloster. Then you can connect any video device that has these RCA connectors or get an adapter from your device to RCA.

Hi
I am also interested in getting this to working via the 3.5mm jack.
I have purchased a male to male 3.5mm 4pole TRRS cable, which is the type of cable that supports audio and video. I have tried to use my Samsung galaxy S2 (which supposedly has video out via the 3.5mm ) and connect it to the 3.5mm jack on my GD. I selected the AUX setting on the radio and tried to play a video, but only audio was being received.
I am going to try a camcorder which defiantly has a 3.5mm 4pole TRRS output just in case the galaxy does not.
I have made one observation when trying this thou, when you select Aux, the screen only display a symbol which has a speaker and 3.5mm cable, so I am not sure if this suggesting that it will only support audio.
Also, my guess is that because my Elite GD has a standard reverse camera, I have a feeling that the input wires have been used for the reverse camera and not connected to the AUX cable.
I will keep you updated.
-
I'll be interested to see if it can be done.
-
Hi, I know this is an old post but I can't stop the sound coming from radio in the head unit when I try to play video. I can get video to play but no sound only radio.
-
:welcome: Glenn.. I can't help, but hopefully someone can :goodjob:
-
If you have a phone connected via Bluetooth, play a song and pause playback, then insert usb
-
Thanks for that it works great now
-

How did you get the video to work in the first place? I can not get it to work? what did you do and what did you use?
Thanks
-
So does running that USB software allow us to watch video while driving?
-
I hope not.... :head_butt:
-
Haha, not for me... for my passengers! Where are we up to with this? What is the latest version that's compatible with the i30? I got the beta version running but i'm sure there would be a newer version available no?
-
Have a look on the veloster forums for the latest version. That's where I got my last copy from
-
If I was on a computer I'd post a link :)
-
I think I got the latest version but when I tried to launch it in the car it came up with an error message :\ I'm currently making a new skin for it because the one supplied is hideous!
-
You mean the skin that looks similar to windows 8?
Do post it when you're done :)
-
If I can get/find the latest version and it works I'll re-skin it. Video is not working for me on the beta version :( its asking for a serial number.
-
Have a wee scope at this page for the latest link..

-
That's the one I tried and it didn't work, it came up saying this software isn't compatible. I'll try it again on Friday during my day off.
PS, how did you get into windows? What's the code?
-
Geez, I did that on the first version of the software. I have a copy of the current version in the car, ill have a play in the weekend and see if I can suss it. :P
-
OK so I re tried the windows 8 looking one again dismorning and it worked!! The skins alright but I'm still gona change it. How do we pause or mute audio playing in the Hyundai system so I can hear video in the new system?
-
The easiest way is to start a song playing via Bluetooth then pause it, then insert the USB.
-
Haha, not for me... for my passengers!
You'll be breaking the law if you have it playing videos while you're driving, VaerO....even if you personally aren't watching it. :)
299 Television receivers and visual display units in motor vehicles
(1) A driver must not drive a motor vehicle that has a television receiver or visual display unit in or on the vehicle operating while the vehicle is moving, or is stationary but not parked, if any part of the image on the screen:
(a) is visible to the driver from the normal driving position, or
(b) is likely to distract another driver.
-
I won't be watching the unit while driving and I doubt a cop would be able to see it while they drove past me, and if I happen to be pulled over for something like an RBT I can simply mute the audio via the steering wheel (Which I would do anyway) then turn the display off via the display switch, non the wiser.
Here is what I have so far:

Much more cleaner I think :P I eventually wanna get rid of the Metro look because I think it's over done, but can't be bothered atm.

Nice!!

Glad you like it! Will start testing it tomorrow and hopefully have it out for everyone Saturday night! :victory:

You might wanna run a spell checker over it first, VaerO... :whistler:

Should be Calendar :whistler:

You're looking at a $304 fine and 3 demerit points but if you're willing to risk it, I guess that's your choice, VaerO.... :head_butt:

Lol, im not the best speller :P
Our laws make no sense! We can watch and operate a gps, but having a moving image in our view is forbidden?
-
A GPS is classed as a drivers aid, a movie or whatever you may be viewing is just a distraction... :victory:
Sorry to be such a party pooper.....

The chances of being caught in this country, this day in age are pretty slim.
Most cars these days have large displays visible to the driver. I'm sure they won't be peering into cars to try jim-bust people for having moving pictures on a factory display.
Furthermore, most cars in Australia have tinted windows; a staggering amount darker than legal. So the chances of them seeing the display with moving pictures is slim to begin with.
And then theres the fact the police will have more of an interest in the raggedy Proton Satria, lowered with mags and different coloured guards thats parked at the lights next to you than a new, respectable i30.
-mypointofview :P

:whsaid:
Current look:
(http://i59.tinypic.com/2czr875.png)
Having a bit of issues with the coloured tiles tho, they don't display correctly which is weird as the pictures of the i30 do... Also not sure on the colours, I used the colour that Windows 8 uses for each of tho subjects.
Edit: Forgot to say I can't edit any app skins because they all rely on programing skills which I don't have :P So we're stuck with a video player that says "Veloster".

This may be so, but do we really wanna be encouraging drivers to be distracted by this sort of thing? :head_butt:
With the amount of illegal mobile phone use by drivers, I'd actually hazard a guess and say police are probably looking into cars more than ever.... :whistler:

Looks really good :) Did you find the LG software to convert video files into a resolution that will play?
-
These is a LG program for this?! I did download a generic video converter and tried one video but it played really jerky in the car :/

The unit is made by LG electronics. I've had one apart before. They have a 800MHZ MTX processor in them from memory?
I'm pretty sure they have 256mb ram.
When Velosters were first released in the states they had the capability to play video on these same units. Hyundai's software update (that was done as part of the service) cut the ability for Veloster units to play video except through AV in.
As the i30 was released after this time, none of the i30 units had ability to play video.
The LG software is still floating around on the internet for converting the videos into optimum resolution and bit rate.
I use a mac now so I can't run the exe anymore, but I think I have a copy of it somewhere still..? Ill have to find it..
-
If you could find it that would be great! Ill do a search around the web. The video I tried playing was about 2 hours long so that might explain the lag...
Edit: Found it! This veloster forum is a great help isn't it!

Swish! Thats the only reason I went on there. They have a wealth of knowledge on this unit!

Understand your enthusiasm to make the display do something it shouldn't, but please be aware that you will not be insured if the mod is made, due to the illegality of the mod. Now, although drivers say they won't be watching, an accident of any sort will see the driver totally responsible for all damage and other costs. Worst case scenario, death of another road user or child. Even if you're lucky enough not to get caught legally, it will be on your conscience morally. :fum:
I think it's a great idea for entertainment, when the car is stationery. :goodjob2:

Im not going to debate the subject. From my point of view, I love building computers, jailbreaking phones and hacking software.
To be honest, Ive watched a couple music videos on mine (not for a long time) just because its fun to get it all working.
I have a son, I would never risk his life so I know where you're coming from..
As I am super busy with life (my son) these days I do not get time to mess with this kind of stuff like I used to.
What I'd really like to get working on this display is OBD software.. My thoughts were to use a USB to OBD connecter purchased for next to nothing from Ebay to connect to the internal OBD port on the car with a USB hub, and run the drivers and OBD software off a flash drive plugged up to the hub as well.
The software would have to run on Windows CE though..? Next project... Will see how we go for time..
-
I am fascinated that you people know how to do this stuff. I'm sure what has been described so far, can benefit some members, so keep up the commentary. It is very interesting to hear.
-
Is there any way to put the firmware back to factory settings?
-
Yep, turn the nav unit off, remove the USB and click it back on again.
If it doesn't reset properly there's a tiny black button up by the left side of the cd slot to reset the unit. As the version of windows the unit runs is 'embedded' you can never wipe or damage the factory software. The maps are the only thing you can really change. The rest of the software simply runs solely off the flash drive. Hope this helps.
-
Hey guys! I know this topic has not been posted for a while, but it was very helpful for me! :goodjob2:
I was able to understand a bit more of how the nav app works on the i30. I did download the "US Veloster Wolf V1.1" but i get this error when i try to use it:
(http://i62.tinypic.com/2wrn139.jpg)
Do you guys have any ideas?
I appreciate the help (sorry about my terrible english :wacko:)

Sorry I can't help... but, nothing wrong with your English! :goodjob:

sorry but I have the same navi in my car. how you do to enter in wince 6?
