Video in motion???

I did some coding a few weeks ago, one of them being video in motion. However, I really don't know how it works. Does it work via a thumb drive, video on ipod etc???

Video in motion allows you to watch video format via USB port/DVD. If you have any Video files ie .mkv on a USB thumb drive you can stick it in the armrest and watch them!

I thought the video in motion coding was exactly that: it allowed you to watch DVDs whilst driving (hopefully just your passengers watching). There is other coding that allows you to watch various format movie files off USB. Could be wrong

You are correct, DVD in motion allows you to utilize Video USB playback (separate coding) while the vehicle is in motion. Both go hand in hand in a way, I explained "Enable USB playback", my bad.

I coded the video in motion and tried to play videos from my phone. The audio plays through the car speakers but video stays on the phone screen.
