Any box will do. You can search ebay, or alibaba, or amazon. The main thing you have to confirm is that the video connector is a 6-pin LVDS fakra connector. If you don't have 6 pins, your hosed.

Here is the AV box I chose. This one appears to have a direct digital HDMI interface for screen mirroring for future use. I am still testing this with a Samsung Allshare, but it doesn't seem to work.

More to come as I test other devices on this direct digital HDMI interface. I also like the idrive controller integration. There is no separate remote needed to change modes.
