1. An on-vehicle audio video control device, comprising:
- a plurality of sources;
a front controller positioned in a front part of a cabin for selecting one of the plurality of sources;
a rear controller positioned in a rear part of a cabin for selecting one of the plurality of sources;
first storage means for storing a source or a mode which has been adopted just before switching, when the source is switched by the front controller;
second storage means for storing a source or a mode which has been adopted just before switching, when the source is switched by the rear controller; and
control means for restarting operation from a mode stored in the first storage means or in the second storage means, when the source, which has been adopted before switching, stored in either said first or second storage means is selected again by the front controller or the rear controller, wherein at least one of the plurality of sources is a mode selectable source allowing selection of a mode from a plurality of modes, and in a state such that one of the plurality of modes of the mode selectable source is selected and being operated by either one of the front controller or the rear controller, if the same mode selectable source is selected by either the front or rear controller, the other controller is controlled by the control means so as to select the mode previously selected by either the front or rear controller that corresponds to the mode stored in either the first or second means.

Abstract
An on-vehicle audio video control device is provided, which selects a plurality of audio video equipments with a front controller and a real controller, allowing it to select a same source or respective different sources at a front seat and a rear seat. Herein, if an AM/FM switch is selected with a CD changer by the front controller after the rear controller switches to FM1, it is determined whether the rear controller is in radio mode or not. If the rear controller is in radio mode, the front controller is switched to FM1, following FM1 mode on the rear side.

a plurality of sources;
a front controller positioned in a front part of a cabin for selecting one of the plurality of sources;
a rear controller positioned in a rear part of a cabin for selecting one of the plurality of sources;
first storage means for storing a source or a mode which has been adopted just before power is turned off, when power for the front controller is turned off;
