Watch Your Own Movies on Your Car Screen
How do I watch my own movies on the car screen?
Connect SENWAY 1 to your compatible vehicle's USB port to watch your own movies on the infotainment screen while parked, using a microSD card or a supported personal-media-server app.
For offline playback, copy compatible movie files to a microSD card and insert it into SENWAY 1. Local playback lets you access those files without a mobile data connection.
For access to your server library, use a compatible Plex, Jellyfin, or Emby player. Streaming from a server outside the vehicle requires internet connectivity and remote access configured on the server.
SENWAY 1 includes 8GB RAM and a Qualcomm SM6350 processor to run media-player applications directly on the device.
Playback compatibility depends on the file's video codec, audio format, and player support. Server-based playback may require transcoding when a file cannot play directly.
Check your vehicle's compatibility before ordering: SENWAY 1 supports compatible factory screens with wired CarPlay, wireless CarPlay, or wired Android Auto.
