771498 2009-05-06 08:20:00 Hi all,
I have a 5.5th gen ipod video that I plug into my sony headunit in my car, the headunit offers direct ipod control so I can change song / browse the ipod from the headunit itself.
When I plug the ipod in it says (on the ipod screen) 'ok to dissconect' and for about a second the tick icon appears this is soon replaced with an ugly sony logo. I have figured out how to replace the tick icon using iwizard and the new icon is also displayed for a second but also replaced by the sony logo.

my question is, is there a way to either replace the sony logo OR stop it replacing the original icon.

Also when I use my dads ipod in my car (ipod classic) it displays the song tiotle on the ipod screen AS WELL as on the headunit. Is there any way to make this happen with my ipod?

I also just noticed that if I have a song playing on the ipod and I plug it in for a second or so it will be playing through the headunit and the ipod screen keeps on displaying the normal song playing screen, but then the 'ok to dissconnect' screen takes over. is there any way to disable this?


Thanks in advance.

Adam
