    USB/HDMI Dab Tuner

    Given we did not get the TV option in the First Edition, anyone tried dab tuner via usb or hdmi?
    Also anyone worked out how to get video media to play on the front screen??

    Hi there
    I have managed to connect my iPhone via hdmi to car. I can play live tv, YouTube, photos and videos all great, I can't as yet get it to play iTunes films and tv, it says not authorised.

    That's a bit worrying! Must have a play with mine as hoping to use iPad to stream iTunes movies on upcoming trip! It will be mutiny in the back seats unless I get the kids videos sorted! Let me know if you have any luck Mac.

    Will do Wineman. I've also got an issue with DVD player, it keeps starting from the beginning each time I re start car, it's quite annoying as it takes a while to get through all the dvd menu to get going again!

    Mac - is it just a DVD player or can it handle Blu-ray Disc too?

    With regard to iTunes movies, have you tried to stream from VLC ?

    An app that allows you to upload movies to your iPhone in nearly any format you like - your not tied to buying from iTunes ....

    At the moment for movies, i have ripped put a load onto a 128gig usb stick, it sits under the front arm rest, you can also use it to play a different movie to each screen from the same stick, seems to work well...

    Mac, I got my iTunes movies running on the rear screens through my iPad tonight with out any issue. I have an apple approved lightning to hdmi adapter connecting my iPad to the hdmi port in the second row console. Worked a charm. Very Happy
