play video on my Ford Touh

[lpgao]

I can play audio from USB drive, so my question is can I play video from USB drive and watch it on My Ford Touch screen?

I haven't made the video venture yet, though I do see that it has an AV input.

Nope - only through the A/V inputs.

Nope - only through the A/V inputs.

Thanks for Guys replies.

thank you guys, but is there a way (cable) to send videos to MFT from my Iphone5?

 

another question, is any one be able to whatch videos on motion?, how do you do it?

[akirby]

Yes, through the A/V inputs (RCA plugs).

 

You can't watch videos while the vehicle is moving - it's against the law (because it's a bad idea - too easy for the driver to be distracted).

 

Better to use an ipad for the passengers.

I understand it is illegal to watch while driving but my passenger may want to. I can lock pick it so it works while moving, do just hook up a dvd and input through the av jacks then?\

Better to use a tablet or portable dvd.  It doesn’t matter if the passenger is watching it - the driver can still see it.

I appreciate your opinion but not what I asked. I found a solution but the video quality is terrible so I am upgrading to a phenox head unit with the 12" Tesla screen.

Bad idea and illegal but it’s your car, your money and your life.

[Bluestratos]

Exactly, thanks for your understanding. I live till I die and the sooner the better. ?

Unfortunately you’ll probably take some innocent people with you.  Please be careful.

[Bluestratos]

Lol,  I was joking.  I never watch the screen but my wife likes to on long drives.  I know it is illegal but so is speeding, not using turn signals etc...The driver is responsible to observe the rules of the road.  

 

Take care,

It’s too tempting even if you don’t intend to look.  That’s why it’s illegal.

[Bluestratos]

Have you ever forgotten to use your turn signal, accidentally gone faster than the speed limit, ran a a stop sign, hit another car, played your radio too loud, had a burned out head light, received a parking ticket, used a cell phone while driving, forgotten to buckle your seat belt, driven with a cracked windshield, eat or drink while driving?0

I have done a few of those things, but one thing I have never done is ignore a screen that was playing something in my field of view.  I consider myself a very focused driver, I can usually ignore everything my wife says while I'm driving, but I know I could never avoid being distracted by a screen playing right there in front of me.
