7" in dash dvd mp3 player issues

Hi,

I have a unbranded in dash single din dvd player. got it at a reasonable price hence unbranded (chinese i think).

Set up was straight forward, iso connection from my focu straight into the back of stereo, so no messing with the wires.

System works fine, radio, mp3, tv tuner, dvd player, memory card and bluetooth. However i believe it has a safety system built in somehow, not your usual brake wire connection, like i have read on some forums. dvd player will work fine during the day, as soon as i switch dimmed light or main lights, the screen goes blank and tells me to stop and watch movie. As mentioned the safety system does not seem to be connected to my brakes but to my lights.

This is really annoying - is there anyway i can by-pass this safety system or short it for good.

There are still loads of wires on the back not connect to anything, like sub, aux, external monitor and etc etc, also im sure there is a wire with parking written onit too not connected anywhere.

I never got a manual with the thing hence running out of ideas, but have seen many of these systems selling on *bay.

Hope someone can help.
