im confused...why not just ground the wire?
Obviously like you said, grounding the wire doesnt work for ALL indash dvd players...but most.

During smog tests, if the inspector notices a dvd player, some states check to make sure the park brake off shuts off the player. Having this activated with a hidden remote on off switch to simulate being "legal". The state of Washington did anyways.

I believe the momentary "switch" between not grounded & grounded when the relay is triggered is what makes this work w/ the Pioneer unit. Otherwise, a straight ground would work just fine.

This is a "hands free" or "toggle free" way to operate the dvd player. Like Clarion, Pioneer, JVC?, etc. the ground cannot be on when you start up the player or car or it will not allow video. The ground has to be introduced after the unit see power switched on or interrupted for a lack of a better term. This way, no toggle has to be used. The momentary lapse in time from when the h/u is turned on till the remote wire activates the relay is sufficient to please the sensing portion of the h/u. So, it's completely out of site and out of mind.
If you get pulled over and asked to show verify the parking brake feature is hooked up, you will be s.o.l.
