This would drastically narrow down the options for how the head unit is communicating with the player. What's interesting is "are the USB data lines connected", "is lineout connected", "is the accessory serial port pin connected", etc. The dock pinout is standard it's obvious what will be connected to each pin. nothing to do with the devices on either end. So, you'd only have to test the two ends of the cable. You said it ended in an 8 pin plug, or something? I don't mean what's connected to what, I just mean which dock pins are connected *at all*, to anything.

Quote -We only support extremely basic remote protocols, pretty much just commands for play/pause/ffwd/rewind/etc, so that's unlikely to be used by a head unit that displays actual information about what the device is playing. It's obviously easier when you've written the stuff yourself from the ground up. I used to do quite a bit of programming, back in the DOS days.but this is a bit different, as I don't know C (yet), and there is a LOT of code there already. Quote -Have you been able to check out the current version of the Rockbox source, and compile it to a working build (without modifying any of the code)? Make sure you can do that first. Perhaps I could ask the tech support guy over at Parrot, he's generally pretty forthcoming, but they would probably consider this proprietary information. Well, that would be difficult, as the box it's plugged into is concealed in the console or the dash - not sure exactly, as a professional installer did it. This would probably answer some of the basic questions (such as "is it using IAP over serial or something over USB") pretty quickly.
