#310 of 691 Manufacturer of 04 Sienna DVD system by roushb Dec 05, 2003 (12:40 pm)
I believe Audiovox makes the DVD system in the Sienna. I base this on finding a press release online stating that Audiovox won the contract with Toyota for this model year. I couldn't find any information on Audiovox's site, though.   As for getting home-burned DVDs to work, it may be more of a trick. I had instant success with the combination described in my last post, but as with much home-burned media, it's ability to play properly can be influenced by the brand of media you use, the speed it's burned, the software used, etc. My suggestion is to start with RW media so you can use it for something else if it doesn't work. If you try both formats with no success, try reducing the burning speed to the slowest possible. If still no luck, try different burning software. Keep in mind burning DVDs is more complicated than CD's: DVDs have a specific file structure, it's not just a bunch of .wav files like on a cd. To burn a real DVD, you have to have software that "Authors" DVDs, not just writes to it. Most software will do this now, you just have to make sure you're telling it to burn a DVD movie. If you're using InstantCopy, XCopy, etc you shouldn't have problems with the software itself.
#311 of 691 CE with Optional Package #3 by albany_shopper Dec 05, 2003 (3:29 pm)
Has anyone in the upstate NY area located a CE model with Optional Package # 3 (with the VSC/TRAC/side air bag features)? I was told they were not available in this area. To get a similar option on a LE, I have to pay several thousand more.
#312 of 691 Why not go with the LE? by jake696 Dec 05, 2003 (4:27 pm)
You'd get more features that will make you happy and/or help at resale time. AND...It may be easier to find an LE. Flexibility could be a key with these '04 Sienna's, as the wait times are long!

#314 of 691 RE: DVD Writable Media by lando622 Dec 09, 2003 (6:40 pm)
Interesting topic, and I wanted to share my experiences so far in my Sienna's DVD player. We've only had it for a few days, but during the test drive and since we've had it, I've tried a bunch of DVDs.   I've found that like the manual says, if you put a printed paper label on the DVD, it may play but will eventually cause the player to hang/not recognize the disc. When the same movie is burned to an identical disc without a paper label added (mark it with a Sharpie instead), everything works out just fine. I've made backups of several of our kiddie movies/programs on DVD-R media (Princo & Ritek brands, I believe). I also had luck with a DVD +RW (Verbatim) in testing other movie files as well. Using the backup copies in the van will allow for the originals to hopefully last much longer.
#315 of 691 8" overhead monitor by deepan Dec 10, 2003 (4:28 am)
would it be too big or just right. Anyone has one this size.
#316 of 691 re: twin FM modulator by indyjones Dec 10, 2003 (5:03 am)
You may also replace your cd changer with your DVD changer, which will play both DVD and CDs. BOSS dvdc 9000 is now on sale for about $236. at buy.com
#317 of 691 did any one use BOSS BV 7 flip by indyjones Dec 10, 2003 (5:07 am)
Has any one installed BOSS BV 7 flip LCD monitor? Does it fit nicely behind the rear audio system?
#318 of 691 Wireless headphone technology by skipole Dec 19, 2003 (11:39 am)
We purchased a 2004 Sienna with rear audio but did not purchase the wireless headphones. Can I buy 3rd party wireless headphones and use those? What technology does the headphones use? I want to make sure I purchase something compatible.   Thanks you.
#319 of 691 DVD media compatibility by steph280 Dec 19, 2003 (1:52 pm)
I have tried Ritek DVD+R, DVD+RW, DVD-R, and DVD-RW. Only DVD-R would work. I will give Memorex DVD+RW a try next, but will need to deplete my DVD-R inventory first.   This DVD player also plays VCD burned on CDR without problems.
