I have the 8120 deck and I have the ipod hooked up but cant get the video to come up on the screen. What should I look for?

Do you have an Ipod touch or a normal one? Go to Kenwoods site and download the latest drivers. It may or may not work. I finally gave up after working with Kenwood for about 10 phone calls and traded my touch for a standard one and the problem was solved.

Not the touch, its the 120GB classic

Ok, 1st make sure the drivers (both ipod and the deck itself) are up to date.
2nd. Make sure the wire is hooked to the parking wire. Kenwood made it so that you CAN NOT bypass that process on most of the newer indash units (Mine is the KVT719DVD).
3rd You need the newest ipod video adaptor (at least I did) KCA-IP300V is the part number
If none of that works. Take it to Aspen Sound

None yet. I even put a new cable on it and still dident work. When I press the FNC butten after I turned on like a music video, it just will go to R-Cam. I cant get it to go to anything else

Wow, I have no clue then. Have you posted it over at LX in the audio section?

I hear ya, I added everything to my Kenwood (except the back up camera). There are more wires in the "brain" of the tuner than on my home PC.

I got it. I was clicking the wrong thing. I had to click the albem artwork picture to turn on the video
