I believe you need to call them and ask. I got the info from another forum member that posted the promo at the time.

Well I timed it and it cuts out for about 5 seconds ever 1:32 using the AT&T hotspot in the X7. If I use my iPhone as the hotspot there are no audio dropouts. So it's either the AT&T service or the hotspot in the vehicle. This only happens when watching the Firestick on the front dash screen. If the rears are only going it doesn't do it. Can anyone else who is using the ATT hotspot try it out and see if it does it on your front screen? Thanks much!!!

May be a dumb question, I'm curious to know if I use Fire stick or Roku, for RES, can I choose two different apps ( May be YouTube on left and Netflix on right screen) with either of those devices connected to one HDMI available? Or will it be same application or TV channel on both screens?

Plus, can I use apps via touch screen or should I use remote?

Ohh. Thank You.

If not Roku then either Fire Stick or Google Chromecast .

But can I access different apps on different screens?

Of course NOT...it's a single HDMI input. But you can watch a BR and use the Firestick on different screens.
