Page 1 of connecting i-pod to JVC UXG30 hi-fi

This hi-fi has a front input audio input to connect an mp3 player, will this input allow connection of an i-pod also?

I saw this in action last month at a jvc training course it may say or not say that it works with an ipod (in instructions)as jvc did not want to encourage you to use the competions mp3 player but he had it working on an ipod mini but it did not display the track names when it was plugged into a tv but apart from that worked fine exept when you plug it in it should turn the hi fi on but he could not get this to work!! he had to manually turn it on and select mp3 input.
