Aux Port - Onlt left channel

[CamarilloBrillo]

I thought I would try and see what my iPhone sounds like with Pandora plugged into the Aux port so I plugged in a standard 2 channel patch cable. When I plugged it in the console said "No Video Signal". I could hear the iPhone but it was horrible - the relative volume was low and I could only hear the left channel. I checked the cable in another device and it worked normally.

Has anyone else seen this? Is this a known problem?

Thanks in advance.

Have you tried checking the sound output on the iPhone with headphones? Reason why I'm asking is I ran into something similar and found out I had a huge piece of lint that somehow made it's way into the headphone jack on my iPhone.

The problem is that the connector is made for a 4-conductor cable that carries audio and video signals. See this thread for details.

Thanks so much. I actually thought that might be the case and I consulted the manual which didn't mention the plug requirements. You can send video over to the console?
