In-car video is going up a gear! The new in-cabin DTS AutoStage video service, Powered by TiVo™, is making its way into the brand new BMW 5 Series.
TiVo’s award-winning tech has been integrated into DTS AutoStage and promises the ultimate ‘on the road’ entertainment experience – complete with in-car live TV, news, sports, movies and more. From Pluto TV to Plex, Bloomberg to TED, there's plenty to discover.
You can personalise the experience, too. Just answer a few simple questions and the tech will bring forth your favourite apps and videos. The system even provides tailored recommendations based on what’s trending, your watch list and your past viewing history.
If you know anything about TiVo, you'll know that it's technology revolutionised the concept of time-shifting video entertainment. That impressive heritage should help DTS AutoStage establish itself as the smartest and simplest way to level-up in-car video streaming.
Clearly, BMW was convinced. The German automaker has already integrated the system into the new generation BMW 5 Series in the UK, United States, Germany, Italy, France, Spain, and South Korea. BMW says it's expanding the rollout, too, with more cars and regions to follow in the future.
"Consumers are evolving to view their car as a meaningful and enjoyable third space, rather than as a simple transportation device. It’s from the privacy and safety of their vehicle where they increasingly choose to relax," said Jeff Jury, senior vice president and general manager of connected car, DTS.
Here at What Hi-Fi, we've seen a huge leap in the quality of in-car audio in recent years, with top hi-fi brands lending their expertise to just about every premium carmaker. Now, it seems that BMW and DTS are all to set revolutionise in-car video.
