USB to RGB in car

[marsneyb]

Would I be able to play videos in my vehicles drop down screen if I plugged my note9 into the RGB input ? (2015 gmc acadia) any advice is appreciated, thanks

Maybe. Not sure if such a thing exists or not, but the only way to do that is to convert the video signal from the USB-C output (which, to the best of my knowledge, right now only supports HDMI and VGA connections) and turn it into an RGB/RCA output. For HDMI I really doubt such a converter exists, but for VGA it might...

There's no direct plug in play solution I'm aware of. At minimum, you'd need something to convert the digital video signal to analog like this.

Then that needs to be converted to an analog signal like this.

Of course, even that is no guarantee it'll work.

Sounds like more trouble than it's worth.... Thanks for the help
