We made our reservation today for 4/3-7. The lady I talked to had a hard time finding the Jensen group. Finally she told me that the Jensen party was coming in on the 4th. Hope that's correct!

We recently returned from a 3-week trip. On 2 separate occasions we went 5 nights without charging up the battery with the generator. Both times we could have easily gotten another night out of the battery as the water pump hadn't yet started to cause the lights to flicker or cause the stereo to pause a dvd while watching a movie (both good indicators that a battery is getting low).

I have many DVD's and TV Shows ripped to digital video in .mp4or .mkv formats.  I have a 2014 Lance 1191 with the Jensen entertainment system.  Both the TV and the Stereo have USB connections, but alas, they don't play video, just some audio...

Have you tried it in USB port on the JBL stereo in your rig? Wondering if it works the same.

Just did - the Jensen radio display read 'USB Load'. As we have no television attached to the Jensen, that stopped the experiment, right there. We have other solutions for video/audio in the trailer.

Jeff, interesting and informative post. Do you plug the hdmi cable into the front of the Jensen DVD/radio unit or into the television's hdmi port? Alas, your post is too late for me. Just a few days ago I placed an order with Amazon for the Samsung micro usb to hdmi gizmo. Bruce

Bruce - I plug it in to the back of the tv (the audio plays through the stereo though). *The HDMI socket on our 2014 stereo is in the back of the stereo inside the cabinet. Unfortunately, it looks like Samsung doesn't install the SlimPort chip in their devices so I don't think it would work with your phone. Be sure to post your findings when your adapter arrives.

Verdict: it works amazingly well in mirroring the S4's screen to the television. Here is a pic of the adapter cable. Unlike the SlimPort, the Samsung adapter requires a separate power source via a USB/Micro USB cable. To get it to work, turn on the S4's screen mirroring function. It didn't immediately work, but after disconnecting and...

Bruce - That is excellent news. It really looks good on the Jensen too. Cell service and wifi was sketchy at the cg this past weekend so we couldn't watch a game or a movie, but I did have an episode of a cartoon show ("Regular Show" - season 1 was free last week in the Play store) in my phone's memory so our son watched it. Worked & looked great!

Thanks Jeff and Bruce.......one more thing to buy!

Yes it does Randy. However, I prefer to connect my phone (using the 3.5mm jack cable) to the Jensen stereo for music. No need for the tv in the equation.
