What video files can be viewed in the CIC?

I heard that it is possible to view video files from the iphone do I need to have 6NF (Musical interface for smart phones) for that or 6NK (Bluetooth and usb connection)?

It is possible to view only video files converted with itunes, or it is possible to have video output to the CIC's screen of any app (f.e. spb tv or youtube)?

Also, is it possible to copy video files from the USB flash to the CIC's hard drive? What codecs are accepted? What option is needed for that?

I've read them, but they only confused me more... 6NK, 6NR, 6NF, snap on adapters...

No info about separate video files (from usb f.e.)...

Good FAQ about that problem would be great.

You can view videos either through DVD player or through iPhone adapter. You won't be able to play videos via Bluetooth. Current Bluetooth transmission protocols donot support videos. There is no direct provision to play videos from ext storage via USB or internal hard drive.

6NF would be enough to play iphone videos or 6NR is also required?

BTW, iphone videos are played half screen only or full screen is also possible like with DVD?

DVD video discs can be copied to the car's HDD?

I don't have 6NR and couldn't get a video podcast to play. Audio only.
