Default Problems with the DVD wireless headphones

Hi Peter
I've been reading your posts about the XC90 DVD system. I recently bought a nice 53 plate with the system I think you designed. It has a Thomson transmitter adjacent to the battery. It did not come with headphones so I purchased some wireless headphones from Maplins. I got a weak signal with a lot of static and on further investigation I have discovered a problem with the transmitter. The red power light comes on for about 20 seconds and then goes out. I've played with the lead but to no avail. I'm not sure if it's the power supply or the Thomson unit. The headphones worked well when the unit was powered for that short period. Any ideas? The wire aerial is very short (3 inches) and was tied in a loop. I untied it and straightened it and got a better signal. I'm thinking that a wire extension to this aerial would improve the signal more. What do you think?

Regards
Mark

HOT OFF THE PRESS: Presenting my new media player system.
This has been specifically designed for automotive 12V electrical systems, so no cheap/unreliable voltage droppers are fitted. The system also features a last position playback feature, so if the ignition is turned off, the movie will start from the last played position when it is turned back on again, no more screaming children after filling up at petrol stations etc!!!
It also includes a neat little wireless remote control that will work from the front and back of the vehicle and offers playback of: MP3, AVI, VOB, MOV, JPG, DivX and other formats and will operate with USB storage units up to 2TB.
Let me know if interested, Thanks, Peter

Hi Peter

I have a 2005 XC90 with RSE system designed by you, but when I bought the car it had no headphones.

Can you PM with details of replacement headphones?

Also are there any upgrades to this system which would allow playback from hard drives etc?

Thanks.

Hi Peter,

Can you provide me with details of your XC60 compatible RSE systems.

Do you need to have the multimedia sound system installed (as would appear to be the case with the deal fit option)?

Does your offering fit into the existing headrests or do you provide your own with the RSE already fitted so we can keep the originals intact?

Regards,

Scott.

Hi sent PM's, thanks. As a reply to T5JAS, when you don't know someone, you need to advise when a comment is "tongue in cheek" I do feel my comment of "That's not really the way to ask" was appropriate. Did you get it sorted?
