can in-dash dvd players play avi files?

hmm...converting avi to either DVD or VCDs...
I don't know if my computer, Athlon 1600+ is powerful enough to do it... even if It does, I think it will take forever to convert.
By the way, which one do you guys think is better? Eclipse? Pioneer? or Kenwood? (DVD Only, Don't need Nav.)

I have the AVN 5495 installed. Its a sweet system. Highly recommend it. But it does not play any formats lile avi, wmv, mpeg, mpg etc. Was actually trying to see if someone has a software installer to update the system's player. My search continues...

and I have to figure out how to keep 5.1 channel or DTS..hehe

Op, If your trying to watch **** in your car, the best way to do it is with a carputer. While your watching **** you can also check your e-mail or play solitare. Happy viewing!

Some of those cheap In-dash dvd players on ebay can play avi files, such as the LM7508 and the LM6508. I bought and sold the LM6508 on ebay and it played every video type I threw at it well. Vob, Mpeg, mpg, avi, m2v. It wasn't the best head unit, but for video playback, it worked well. The only major downfall of the unit was it only played videos on a cd-r or dvd-r/rw, not a dvd+r/rw. I hope this helps.

Do either of those (the LM7508 and LM650 have the capability of being wired into the steering wheel controls of an '06? Also, I can't quite tell from the ebay descriptions: MUST The screen come out in order to use it, or can it just stay flat (verticle) like a regular radio? In other words, whenever I want to use the thing, do I have to have this huge honkin' screen thing hanging out of my dash?

One of my friends just got a LM6508. I couldn't find my videos from long ago, but I made a new one of this in action.
