iPad -> Composite AV ??

[NestOfRobins]

I have an LCD panel in the car and a set of composite inputs. What do I need in order to be able to mirror the iPad screen?

Is this (http://www.ebay.com/itm/RF-AP300-30...ultDomain_0&hash=item19c9e20a2d#ht_2075wt_754) enough? Is there any difference between this and the one available from Apple directly?

Do I need any specific software?

Mirroring of the iPad display is only possible via VGA, HDMI or Apple TV (which outputs HDMI).

Video out is possible for composite though.

like the previous poster said, composite/component is not video mirroring supported. I know that there are some jailbroken apps that will do this but I did not have luck with them ,It does output video though

Are you wanting to actually mirror what is on the iPad screen exactly or just output video? The Apple A/V cable will output video from select apps, i.e. Videos app, netflix, etc. but will not do a full mirror like is possible with an iPad 2 or iPhone 4s and an Apple TV 2 or HDMI cable.

I am interested in watching videos. How can I know in advance what apps will work? VLC? Stock videos? Safari? Videos from w/in Safari?

No need to state that. The forum already indicates that you're the thread starter.
