i find the hidden menu pressing the valet button for 40 seconds

there is some tricks to use the dvd or usb video in motion ?

thx a lot

 

I vaguely recall someone figured out how to do that some time ago - I think you'll have to search to find it. Although it may work differently in Italy than here in the US.

 

this zone is easy to find is in the center console if you open the cover up the armrest where the cd is located you think here i need to put the bypass ?

 

Good thread on it here...

F-Type head unit is the same and the 'adapter' is plug-and-play. No wire cutting/splicing.

Here is a video of getting to the back of the head unit from the NAV-TV install...

I think NAV-TV's unit gives the same functionality with the additional video-in ports. Not 100% sure though.

 

BTW, always obey local laws!

 

it's easy to do ?

 

Why anyone would actually want to do this in a 2-seat sports car is beyond logic to me. IMHO your passenger should be interacting with the driver rather than watching some pointless soap opera, sports event and/or adult entertainment. Being in close proximity to the screen, the driver could obviously also become distracted by such video. Such an occurrence even for a brief moment may well be enough to endanger the occupants.

 

I agree entirely, ndabunka. However, I recall reading that euro-spec versions have an infotainment screen where motion video is only visible to the passenger. I thought OP was in Italy.

Also, many live concert DVD's have rich DTS surround sound that could be enjoyed on the Meridian stereo. However, this is certainly not a justification for distracted driving.

 

I also noticed that he was in Italy which was why I retracted the legal cautions from my post but I don't think there is any way for the Jag screen to show the DVD content solely to the passenger. At least there was not in my prior vehicles. I toyed with enabling the "Euro" mode on my prior 7-series but it already had the rear seat entertainment system which was AWESOME when playing DVDs as it was already full surround sound and that was a 2006 model year vehicle. While it was awesome in that huge cabin with the ability to re-create spatial audio, the cabin in the Jag is simply to small IMHO for that same capability but I guess we could test it out by sitting in it parked and playing a DVD (which I have yet to attempt).
