Okay, but nothing too speacial:
I bought this and have had it for a while now. It works; does what it is supposed to. It's just nothing special. Prior to owning this, I just had RCA cords that had an adaptor that plugged into my iPod. That set up worked fine. With this item, the iPod charges, which is cool. Through a semi-complicated set up, I can get the video to work on the TV. Controlling the iPod through the receiver works, but the functionality of this gets frustrating. Not all of the normal iPod categories are there... more info
Perfect iPod Control:
I've owned the DMPort for the Sony HT-CT-100 soundbar system for about 3 weeks. It arrived in a well-packaged box system. Connection to the Sony soundbar system was intuitive and simple. My iPod began charging as soon as it was connected to the DMPort. The remote control for the HT-CT-100 soundbar system controls the iPod perfectly. The only limitation is the remote does not provide a a visual display that repeats the digital menu screen on the iPod so I must be within visual range of the iPod to select... more info
Worked as expected! Great little product!:
I got this item to connect my 16GB iTouch with my new Sony HTCT100 Sound Bar with Sub-Woofer - Black. Simple to use, took less than 5 minutes to hook up. I especially like the fact that I can use the TV screen to navigate the iTouch. I don't think that you can use this with an iTouch to view videos or pictures in your iTouch. I do not think that it is compatible. But I did not care about that part. I just wanted to use it to listen to my music and navigate my iTouch. BTW, you will definitely need to... more info
I returned it...:
I was pretty excited to purchase this after reading the reviews and wanting a dock for my ipod video to go with my new Sony D265 Home Theatre system. It was easy to hook up, but aggravating to figure out how to get the images to appear on the tv versus the ipod. It was nice to see the song titles and such on the tv, but it looked like I was looking at an old time DOS program. It is not the same format as you see on the ipod. I would have probably kept the unit if the album artwork appeared on the screen... more info
