Hello Shonky, yes newer E36 should have I-BUS and some version of BMW car-audio: my E46 (3-series, of course) have the 4:3 LCD for navigation, on-board computer, radio tuning and so on.

Unlike what has been done with Phatbox (that's a rather "simply" design with just basic CD-changer interface made by 3rd party company and no text display), I want to use my Empeg for better performances, integration & technical excellence.

I just have to code a daemon to "drive" (via I-BUS) the present player software (that works just fine) exploiting excellent Hijack kernel features.

I hope someone can give help to sortout how to get an additional output gate.

BTW: Anyone has disassembled the firmware in TV module? Reverse engineering of the module will be the project following this one I hope to finish soon.
