Pioneer AVH-X8750BT

[richwong21]

Hi all,

 

After reading everyone's posts, I'm looking to install the AVH-X8750BT in my Honda Stream. Can any recommend a good installer that can also install front and rear cam? Would be great if they also good at complete repaint of car with new colour and leather reupholstering of seats or have associated workshop that does it.

 

I have a Samsung Note 3 and waiting for Lollipop 5.0 upgrade which is being rolled out. Wife using iPhone 6+. We will both use the HU when we take turns driving the car.

 

Thanks in advance.

hi senior bros,

 

my PI charging me $500 to upgade to BT 8750 from 2750bt.. Please advise if it's worth it?? I been reading, besides the apps and screen... is it all worth it? The thread fills with andriod issues... but I'm using IOS..

 

Does it play CD?

Also seems like i have to tell the installer where to put the cables??

 

Gosh..

any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

 

 

It has a CD player that you can play CD. 8750 support Apple Carplay also, if you are big fan of apple. It integrate well with the Siri, at least Siri recognise my local slang! haha!

 

$500 is a bit too much, make sure you check whether this is local set. My top up was $350, but export set.

 

If you don't tell the installer where to put the cables they will normally lay it into the gloves compartment. So better give them clear instruction, they will not know how you want to use the cable - to them that cable is just for USB thumb-drive.

Does the AVH-8750BT have multitouch?

 

Any bugs or anything you dislike about this head unit?

 

Anyone tried using a 256GB SDXC card loaded with FLAC files?

 

Feedback from Android Auto or Carplay users on what works and does not work?

 

Have you tried the FLAC files?

 

I have just tried the Apple Looseless format, cannot recognize. Quite disappointed with this.

Export set no warranty lor, risky.....

 

8750 has two USB ports and one hdmi port. Default package come with one USB cable only. So you can supply another USB cable and hdmi cable to the installer, then tell them where to leave the cable.

 

Dash mount USB port is available as accessories. Need to hunt for it.

was eyeing on this HU but noticed your comment that it doesn't support Apple Lossless format, that's a big blow as most of the audio files are in that format ... does anyone know which HU support Apple Lossless format?

[Amx57]

nobody knows?

It support AAC the loosy format, not looseless.

 

For looseless format, it supports only FLAC. Alpine doesn't even support FLAC.

Just upgrade my old X5650BT to AVH-X8750BT, but all DIXV file can not read and play on X8750BT which can play via USB on my old X5650BT.

 

I also converted the video to MKV (H264 and AAC codec) with any resolution start 320x240, 640x360, 640x480, 720x480 but all resolution can not detect/read and playing on my new X8750BT.

 

Any suggestion?

 

Is there some sample working file (MKV/DIVX/AVI/MP4 video) which I can download and try on my X8750BT?

 

Thanks

Hi anyone experiencing this head unit restarting on it's own? And while playing SD card the unit stops after a while? Updated to the new firmware but problem still seems to be around

[Ckchow13]

For those asking how carplay works:

 

You do not need any other cable except your apple lightning cable plugged in usb1 of 8650/8750 for it to work. Just make sure your smart phone settings in your 8650/8750 is under usb and not digital av.

 

In 8650 carplay will not work with your digital av adapter(hdmi+lightning), that is solely for appradio mode.

 

Just plug your iphone and your 8650/8750 will automatically launch carplay.

 

To access siri by voice command, just make sure in your iphone settings that siri can be activated by turning on "hey siri" (plugged in usb)

 

You can likewise activate siri by pressing contacts and messages from the headunit and siri will ask who would you like to call or message.

 

Even if you are not in

 

and just in pioneers main os, you can still use siri, by pressing a dedicated button to call siri or simply say hey siri as well (plugged in usb)

No, hdmi sends digital signal, does not matter if its $5 or a $100 hdmi cable, the video quality will be the same.

 

Can lightning cable support video playing?
