Rear Seat Entertainment CVBS video input hack?

Hi Guys,

Apologies if this isn't the right place to ask, but it's my first post, also this is a pretty technical question, and this seems the best place.

So one of the deficiencies of Rear Seat Entertainment is that without the option 6 disc DVD changer in the glovebox, you can't actually output a single DVD source to all 3 screens (2 rear, front iDrive CID screen).

Also [due to the same limitation] you can't choose 6NR centre console as a video input for the rear screens.

Checking out the internal presentation on the system
http://www.kneb.net/bmw/F01-02/07.1_...%20Systems.pdf, I noticed the CVBS video input (which presumably would have been used for the 6 disc glovebox DVD changer).

Anyone ever hacked that portion to allow a single video source for all 3 screens, or even to use that to overcome this kinda setup:

Marcus
