Netflix & SlingBox on Factory Nav-pro Screen?
 

I have been searching for some time on how to integrate my iPhone 4 and get my Netflix and Slingbox apps to utilize the factory NAV screen... I haven't found many posts regarding... It looks like there's a company BimmerTech that has a way to do this... Anyone on here already doing this?

Thanks

are you able to get an RCA video signal out of the iPhone?

not that I'm aware of..

if you were to get the RCS video (and audio) signal from the phone, then you could use the aftermarket devices (i think DICE does it) and pipe the video (and audio) into the AV input for the unit... I know i can pipe any RCA video source into the factory TV module's AV input...

the question would be, how to get the AV signal out the phone... i never thought of it, but it seems like an idea... i am off to ebay to search chinese sellers for AV cable!!!

I've been researching via this thread.... In the one photo the guy has his iphone homescreen mirrored on the NAV screen..

Retrofit of smartphone integration and 6nr done - Bimmerfest - BMW Forums

he has canadian model... do canadian models offer TV functionality (hw and/or sw)? what is the displayout app? seems it is centered around that app...

my wife has an '11 E90, with all those things (she can listed to pandora through her dataplan).. she would love to have netflix for the kids...

interesting topic... i need to research it too...

I had thought canadian/US models all fell under the North America (NA) stamp from BMW.. neither has TV Tuner unlike their European cousins...

I've been searching high and low on various forums as welll trying to find the best way to do this... so far the Bimmertech options seems like it will work... I just haven't come across to many other options or folks who have even done this... surprisingly not much interest in iphone app integration.. the BMW apps are just scratching the surface...
