    Special adaptor to send video from iPad to head unit

    Hi guys,

    As the title says I'm trying to source an adaptor that allows me to send the movies on my iPad 4 (with the little lightning connector) to my Alpine double din head unit.

    The head unit I have is the ICS-X8 with the iPod USB A/V cable (see the two pics below) that allows me to transmit music & movies from my iPhone 4S ( & 3GS, 4 etc) to the screen of the head unit...Which performs flawlessly with the iPhone 4S.

    Now I have an iPad 4 and I want to connect it to my head unit, but I need to try and find an adaptor that will allow me to transmit audio and video. I've seen the lightning to 30 pin adapters on eBay but apparently they will only charge & sync the iPad 4, but not transmit audio or video.

    Has anyone on here had the same issues with their head units (it doesn't have to be Alpine, since it would still be relevant with any other brand)? ie upgrading to the newer iPhones and iPads and now not being able to connect to their head units?

    Thanks guys
