External DVD player audio through car stereo problem
 

Hi

Can anyone help with this query please.

I dont know much about car audio so please forgive me if this is a stupid
question.

I have an external 12V DVD player and screen, I want to run the audio
through the existing Philips radio/cassette in the car (sorry cant find a
model number on it). The front of the Philips unit indicates that you can
run a CD changer through it, so I've checked the back and there are red and
white female phono connections.

I've connected the DVD player to these with the following problems.

1 When I try to change the source it comes up with no source.

2 I can get audio from the DVD player, but have no control of the volume
from the radio/cassette and the audio only comes from the rear speakers.

3 If the source is on Radio, I get the radio through all 4 speakers and the
DVD also playing throught the rear speakers.

Any ideas on how to resolve this?

I want to use the DVD player so I can have a larger choice of audio/video
(Radio/Tape/CD/DVD/MP3) without a huge expense.

There is no reference to the radio cassette in my car owners manual. and
without knowing the model, I cant find a manual for the radio cassette.

thanks in advance

Rick
