    Default Where can i get this cable?

    Im looking for this power cable for a headrest monitor (on the right in the picture below) the one that has like a 4 pin connector and just a single video input. the black connector on the left is where the first connector plugs in. anybody know any local place i can get this cable at?




    also is there such a thing as like a video switch that can switch from one video to another video source using only 1 video input? like if a screen has 1 video input, and i split it to 2 video inputs. can i switch between the 2 or will it just not work?

    thanx

    you can cehck ebay for a cable like that , its possible they will have one , or you can contact the manufacture and explain to them the "dog" ate it or you lost it in a move and they will likely comp you one.

    as far as using one input and wanting it to be able to switch video sources you can do some fancy work with a few sets of cheap RCA's and some relays or you can get a video switcher similar to this one:

    yeah looks like it... but you might only be able to have one on at a time if that makes any difference?
