I just bought a JVC KW-AV70BT reciever. the device is suppose to be able to mirrior phone screen for iphones. But i noticed the cable they use us just a regular RAC cable. Since the Note 2 allows usb to hdmi hook up. Will it be possible to have usb to hdmi then add hdmi to rca cable?
 
Its not about opinions, as much as its about the adapters and converters, which are availabile on newegg, tigerdirect, and amazon .coms.
 
Some of the older Samsung Galaxy phone has analog AV out from the headphone jack where you could just buy a 3mm to AV cable and you are good to go, but the Note II doesn't. You will have to first convert output to HDMI and then use a small converter to convert HDMI (digital) to AV (analog). Something like this:

Amazon.com: ViewHD Universal HDMI to Composite / AV Video Converter, Support PAL / NTSC Standard TVs: Electronics

Don't buy just a cable that has HDMI to AV. Those don't really convert. The one that works will look like a little box.
 
Even though the Note II screen may be smaller than the JVC, the picture will probably look much better on the Note II. You might as well just get a car mount for like $10 and watch movies on the Note II! ;) With the USB OTG cable and the HDMI to AV converter, and all the cables, it will set you back over $50!
