I recently got the (over-priced and under-featured) iPhone 4 snap in media adapter. I loaded a video onto my iPhone to see how watching video works.

If I select External Devices>Plugin (iPhone 4), I get the iPod music interface (with choices for song, artist, genre, playlist, etc), but not selection for videos.

If I select External devices>iPhone (not the plug-in choice) I see the regular BMW interface, with a "film icon" which is greyed out (whether I am in park or not*). I restarted the car with the iphone in the adapter and got the film icon to be non greyed out. The video on my iphone appeared and when I selected it, I got sound only -- no video.

Am I missing something?

(* I have the DVD In Motion hack installed).

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

With the hack, your guess is as good as mine.
