Nope. You need the CCC to view TV. With nav bus you only have the MAS-K, it doesn't allow adding the BMW TV tuner.

CCC is the computer. MAS-K is a different computer, used in cars without nav pro.
The CCC generates the colour pictures for the nav map. The MAS-K can't do it, so you need CCC for TV. This means you need nav pro for TV, or you buy an aftermarket module that overrides the screen. But this will not integrate into idrive.
If you check the official BMW infos and options you'll find that TV function requires pro nav. That's because of the CCC.

If you have pro nav with a CCC you can add the TV tuner, but I think the dealer needs to initialise the software...

i wonder if the aerial units and wiring willbe there think something on rear screen aerial is needed. havnt looked but i would have thought the tv upgrade to navpro install is prepped for it but a business nav or no nav maynot be prepped?there is only a box of bits listed on parts list as 1 unit no breakdown of parts in box(tuner +what+what plus unit to aerail lead+brackets and screws) i have looked in my car just assuming that this fits on opposite side to battery side ,as i have no tv but pronav ,and cannot see any spare leads with socket etc or is this unit located elseware?

What is CCC?
CCC is the computer. MAS-K is a different computer, used in cars without nav pro.
The CCC generates the colour pictures for the nav map. The MAS-K can't do it, so you need CCC for TV. This means you need nav pro for TV, or you buy an aftermarket module that overrides the screen. But this will not integrate into idrive.
If you check the official BMW infos and options you'll find that TV function requires pro nav. That's because of the CCC.
