    I didn't think we could play video off the SD cards? Did that change with the new MMI in the B8.5?

    Cards/USB Devices must be formatted to FAT or FAT32.

    MP3 - MPEG-1 Layer 3, MPEG-2 Layer 3 / WMA - Version 7, 8 and 9 / ACC/M4a - MPEG-4 LC.
    Files cannot be DRM protected.


    Bit Rate - 32 to 320 kbits/s and variable bit rates in sampling frequencies of 8 to 48 kHz.

    Copied from my google search.

    I played some old Divx format movies, but don't have the specific frame rates, size, and audio.

    Insert SD card in SD slot on your Windows based laptop (hopefully you have one), go to My computer and right click on SD card and hit Format and pick FAT or FAT32, done.

    Now load your music or video files

    My B8.5 will play the audio from a video when moving. The picture automatically comes on when the car stops.

    Is there a way to disable this feature lockout? I'd like to be able to play a movie for those in the back seat.
