How does the Rear Seat Entertainment work

I have ahd the car now for two months but still havent mastered how the rear seat ent. works. Could someone please clarify the following points:

1. If you are watching TV on the drivers screen, can this be watched in the rear seat screens also? Or can it also be watched in the rear seat screens independently of what is on the drivers screen.

2. Even when I insert a dvd in the rear dvd player, it taker me forever and a bit of luck to actually get the thing to play. Is there a step by step guide anywhere? The owners manual is seriously vague in this regard.

Any help greatly appreciated.

Hi jinmadrid

In Germany the TV option is only available when the car's not moving (or just moving at a few km/mph)

I don't have the TV option enabled but watching' DVD in the rear works fine if you stick the DVD in the rear player...

If you start to play the DVD in the front, it can't be viewed in the back and vice versa

With the remote control you can select which screen to play the video - also for both panels

The Owners Manual (available at http://www.bmwusa.com/Standard/Content/Owner/dgh.aspx ) should give you more details - especially regarding playin' videos.
