This is a series that explains the basic knowledge of "product selection" that will be the key to executing it for drivers who are interested in upgrading car audio systems.Currently, the point of selecting "AV integrated navigation" is explained.
Until now, from the viewpoint of selecting a model to improve the audio system, it has been argued that a model that supports Bluetooth and equipped with the HDMI terminal should be selected.Following that, this time, I will explain the ability to respond to other media.
By the way, if you want to use your smartphone as a source unit in the car, it will be more convenient if you equip Bluetooth and equip the HDMI terminal, but if your favorite smartphone is iPhone, the iPhone/iPod connection is possible.Let's check.
In fact, most of the models are compatible with this (check at the time of purchase), so if so, there is also an option that you do not dare to choose a Bluetooth compatible model.By doing so, the purchase budget can be suppressed.
Because "AV integrated navigation" supports iPhone/iPod connection, it is convenient enough to listen to music in the iPhone.Although it is a wired connection, the song name and artwork can be displayed on the screen of the in -vehicle aircraft, and the main operations such as song feed can be executed on the screen of the in -vehicle machine or on the steering remote control.And you can charge your iPhone at the same time.It is also slightly advantageous in sound quality than normal Bluetooth.
By the way, iPhone/iPod connection is basically a function that recognizes music apps in the iPhone as an iPod, so you can use only music apps.However, music streaming apps may also be recognized by some models.So if you want to use a streaming app, try USB connection.I'm lucky if I can use it.
In addition, the terminal functions as a storage for Android terminals depending on the model.In that case, the Android device can be used like a USB memory or an SD card, making it possible to play music inside the terminal.And this method is somewhat more advantageous in sound quality than general Bluetooth.
After that, if you want to bring music data in USB or SD, check the correspondence.In addition, there are quite a few models that support these two.By the way, when using these, each device also plays a playlist role.So, for example, if you prepare multiple USB memory, and decide on a song you want to listen to on a good day, you decide on a theme, such as "Women's vocal collection", and put the songs.Sometimes it can be changed.
And even if you often listen to music with USB or SD cards, if you dare to select a model that does not support Bluetooth, you can reduce the purchase budget.Such a choice is also an ant.
That's it for this time.Next time, I will explain the file support.looking forward to.
