Does anyone know if it's possible to view a DVD through the satnav screen or how easy it is to set up?

No not possible bud!

it is actually possible. but you need to have an external dvd player. You can buy cheap ones off ebay for about £15 but you wouldnt have the touch screen functionality. But yes it is possible

Now I am confused! Mine doesnt have the touch screen facility anyway. (It's a 59 reg Tekna) Do you have any ideas on how to wire up an external dvd player?????

It would be illegal in the UK - any video equipment is not allowed to be seen by the driver.

Though I think I have heard of one manufacturer do a special screen that shows the driver sat-nav info while the front seat passenger views a video on the same screen - it's a bit like a Fresnel lens.

Touch Screen??

The only Nissan sat nav to have that is N-tec which is in the Note and Qasqai!!

i drive the new 2010 range rover vogue (belongs to my boss) and that has this very system instaled and from what i have been told BMW's have had this system for a while now
i must say it is very good and the freeview reception is also very good on the move
