The RSE is extremely disappointing. For $2000 I feel I got screwed to say the least, lol. I can overlook that there's no DVD player and I have to rip old movies to an SD card (but then why make me pay $225 for a USELESS CD player??? Isn't that even more obsolete than a DVD????) The HDMI input is nice because I can plug a fire stick in and it works great.
The HUGE problem is the lack of a direct connection to the vehicle sound system. After a frustrating hour, I was able to connect the monitors to the vehicle sound via the bluetooth connection. Despite the fact that I have to disable my phone's Bluetooth (or disconnect it from CarPlay) the sound works, BUT there is a second delay between the actors' lips moving and the sound. I mean, really... how much money do I have to spend to NOT have that problem? Is it unreasonable after spending almost $100K on a car to have an audio SOURCE say REAR SCREEN?
I would love to be able to run a cable from the headphone jack into the AUX input, but NOOOOOO there is no AUX input anymore!!! UGH. So now, per the suggestion on another thread I'm going to try out one of those FM modulator things. At least then I'll (fingers crossed) have a connection that doesn't require me to disconnect my phone and hopefully allow me to watch a movie with audio in sync.
