Pioneer GPS/DVD Bypass?
My friend just got a Pioneer AVIC-F700BT.
Does anyone know how to bypass/hack it to allow for watching movies off ipod while driving?
I know there are websites out there that tell you how but you have to pay for it but hopefully someone knows how to do it free!

Two ways:

1) Hardware . . . LINK

2) Software . . . LINK

Check out the site for more: LINK

Keep in mind this is very illegal, the Hardware version could void your auto insurance. I have successfully done the Software Version.

Most just ground a switch and toggle it on/off as needed.

should just be a toggle on the parking brake wire. BUT alot of the new units are going to an internal gyro that senses movement and there is no way to bypass them, some you have to repin a harness and some you have to solder on the main board. the avh-4000dvd i have is just ground the parking brake and toggle it.

I misread your question. I have added a Mute button for the Voice Navigation, POI mods, loading screen and splash screen mods. As well as the obvious Firmware 2.0 upgrade.

That Gyro thing is a pain in the A$$ to get around sometimes, but in most avic's, they have a hidden switch you can do by paper clips to remove the gyro sensor from stopping the video, however wont effect your GPS. I did this with my avic N3 I had awhile back... My D3 was a little different, but worked none the less... As I stated... AVIC411.com has step by step bypass pictures for EVERY Pioneer in-dash... I'd check it out there if your having problems.
