Monday October 26th, 2009

This nifty little device does pretty much for your DVD collection what your iPod did for your CD collection. The KCE-425i gives you the ability to watch movies on board your boat by providing and interface between your iPod and TV. It’s all very user friendly and works off a 12volt power supply. The audio can be fed into your existing stereo via an auxiliary input and you then run S-video or phono cables to your TV.
The unit will only work with later generation iPods that include video capability but it also works as in hifi/iPod music interface. Basically you download your movies and tunes at home ready for your next voyage. The unit even makes it possible to take advantage of iTunes new movie rental service with each movie taking up less than 1Gb so you can pick out a few.
The KCE-425i currently costs around the £200 mark but for what it does it is pretty good value for money.
