The iPod as video source
The fundamental rule is that the
K2
can reproduce the video content stored on
some iPod models on a screen connected to the system, as well as music.
The method of operating the iPod when playing video material varies slightly
from model to model, and it is possible that not all video functions will be
supported.
If you cannot access all the video functions of your iPod using the remote
control handset, or if you only have remote control of the audio functions, then
we recommend that you use the iPod's controls to operate the system.
The iPod only generates video content as a standard video signal (FBAS).
If you are using the YUV Component or HDMI output for DVD playback, you will
also need to connect a standard video lead between the K2’s VIDEO OUT /
CVBS output and the video monitor in order to play iPod video files.
For playing iPod video material select the AV input on your video monitor to
which this video lead is connected.
The PAL / NTSC change-over switch (on the back panel) and the settings you
have entered in the Setup menu for the DVD player (DVD player configuration)
‘General settings, TV screen’ and ‘Video settings’ also affect the iPod.
Use with an iPhone
The
K2
can also be used with an iPhone as source device.
Many models generate a warning regarding telephone use, but this is not
relevant to the
K2
, and can be ignored.
Special features when
operating an iPhone
The first step is to select the iPhone as source with a long press on the

Within the lists you can navigate up and down using the
