We can definitely get video content on the NAV screen. Here’s what I would recommend:

Dietz Video Multimedia Interface – 1260

iLink-L2 Multimedia Interface for iPod

This will allow the system to display videos from your iPod, as well as music and slideshows. What’s really great about the device is that it will allow you to play the following formats:

• AVI
• MPEG
• DivX
• DVD *.vob files

A video iPod isn’t even necessary! The kit will include a wireless remote so the entire system can be hidden from view, allowing a stock appearance for a more classy look.

We offer the TV on NAV kits kits from BMW as well, but are unnecessary if your only intent is to watch prerecorded content from an iPod.
