I know there are at least two schools of thought when it comes to video player for the video on nav setup - hard drive player or dvd player. I'll most likely get a dvd player so that I won't have to deal with transferring files back and forth. Ideally I want a half DIN size player that can play DVD, VCD, MP3 etc, and has an integrated TV tuner. I found 1 DIN size players with TV Tuner, but none that have both in a half DIN size. Here are some that I found. Have you found any in this combination? Has anyone heard of a digital tv tuner for mobile video? I don't want to get analog and then have it become obsolete in a few years. What are you installing?

Hi,
I just bought the Power Acoustik half din but I just got my car today, so it'll take a while before I put it on. I saw there's a big space right for a din player right where the cd changer is, dunno if you got it or not but if not you could put the full din in that place cause me as well tried to find player with tuner but nothing is smaller than full din.
In any case i'll put the player in that place and see if I'll be able to put the iPod interface somewhere else.
