Thumbs down

I have E60 VGA interface.The VGA interface allows to connect VGA (Car-pc) to the factory screen.

I also have E60 MOST interface. This allows direct control for both video and audio system of the vehicle and doesn't need FM transmitter at all.

Is anyone interested with those interfaces?

Does this include the iDrive controller? Also can you post some more details here on the MOST interface etc. Are you able to provide a discount as a Group Buy?

MOST interface:
It uses the systems of the vehicle. It contains fiber optic cables. You can use I-drive controller if you find the suitable DVD player for the MOST interface.
Most interface do not support Car-PC function.

VGA interface:
We have included VGA function to our video interface to allow drivers to connect Car-PC.
You can use I-drive controller to switch the screen Mode. Only the screen mode with VGA interface.

Does this function uses the whole 8.8 monitor, or just the left (16/9 TV function and not disfigurely stretched to 8.8) part of screen, so we can have the right smaller part with navi/trip etc. infos shown.

Both MOST and VGA interface uses the whole screen.
We are working on partitioning the monitor screen. We will have that function shortly.

I know that VGA uses the whole screen, but from within the MOST should make this difference and put the TV view in the correct OEM size and position, with parallel showing the infos on the right.

It will be then a very usefull function on Navi-Pro cars
