Watching movies while driving! - New 2009 2010 BMW Z4

ymdd · 08-08-2012, 08:53 PM

There was a software I saw a couple of weeks that allows one to watch movies while driving. Does anyone know the name of the software? Or owns it?

DVDFree from Prochip.

Accessed by a download through your OBD port.

They also do a roof opening software patch call CTMFree (I think thats the spelling)

Dr stig 2 thank you very much your very helpful

DVDinmotion is another I think. And then you can have certain Bimmerpost members do the coding directly through the web.

I had mine done, but to be honest, it's a stupid thing to do, and very dangerous.....

Theres lots of venders who sell it. Most send you a link to a cd you burn your self and you turn on/off the video in motion by I inserting the disk into your car.

Watch movies while you drive? I hope you don't live anywhere near me.

ManiacGT · 08-09-2012, 08:11 AM

Indeed, it sounds like a great idea until you're in hospital having killed the people in front. There's a reason its disabled.

I think some ppl would use it to entertain their kids on long drives.

ymdd · 08-09-2012, 08:53 AM

People chill, I'm asking so that I entertain the passenger not myself

nickm9 · 08-09-2012, 11:08 AM

It's still a distraction. And the cops will pull you over for it for sure....

35iDriver · 08-09-2012, 02:16 PM

Yes, the software is called:
IWMWDANI6FtU

Another company is offering similiar software called:
IAFIBIWMWD

persian54 · 08-10-2012, 02:50 AM

I have it on my m3 and z4 and not once have I actually used it lol

I really should, considering I take a 100 mile one way drive up to the track at least once a month... and it's a very boring drive....

haspi · 08-10-2012, 06:39 AM

is there a way to have real tv installed, that would be cool if you are stuck in traffic ...

Its a 2 seater.. how many kids will be watching it??

Fine to entertain kids in the back, that's why 4+ seater cards have screens IN THE BACK, but you should never have distractions near the driver.

ymdd · 08-10-2012, 09:18 AM

Ok , fine I will be driving and watching movies at the same time,, that's how I broke my Porsche turbo, I'm thinking of doing it all over again

35iDriver · 08-10-2012, 10:02 AM

While were are at it somone should figure out a way to build in a tiny microwave for our cars. Perhaps a built in ironing board, or a sink. A sink would be cool.

Then every morning, all I have to do is get up, get dressed, get in the car then just pop a muffin in the microwave, wash up and get the wrinkles out of my work shirt while I dodge the idiots not paying attention as they text while driving.

...and I can watch Gladiator, my favorite movie, all at the same time. PERFECT!

Those days are gone when you could have a wet bar. I remember in the 70s in Texas you could tip your beer at the Officer next to you at the red light....then they passed a law that only the passengers could hold an open container....then only the backseat passengers were allowed open containers....and now you get a littering ticket if you flick your cig ashes out the window, have a child in the front seat, distracted driving ticket from eating a sandwich....on and on and on. The days are gone when you could endanger others and yourself without regard.
