With the latest software it appears TV and DVD will only show picture when in Park, previous versions worked when stationary. At least that is what is occurring with my '07 that has the latest software.

> is there anything avaialble that will allow the dvd to continue to play on the nav screen while driving?

FWIW, in some States this is illegal, i.e., having a movie/DVD screen visible to the driver while driving.
