What says mute, the E38 system? Isn't there a jack for the sound (mono) as well as AV?

The AV-IN plays any AV source

I had my iPod connected to it

You must have the TV settings the same (ie: PAL for device and for AV in) and you must have the wiring correct

The AV-in is a 3.5mm stereo socket, with:

Body=Ground

Ring=Video

Tip=Audio

Only mono audio, so connect Left and Right audio together for Mono.

thats probably where the issue is, a standard 3.5mm plug has the tip for one channel and the ring for the other and the body ground, and a standard av cable has 2 rings like this pic.
