infotainment

Infotainment (a portmanteau of information and entertainment), also called soft news as a way to distinguish it from serious journalism or hard news, is a type of media, usually television or online, that provides a combination of information and entertainment. The term may be used disparagingly to devalue infotainment or soft news subjects in favor of more serious hard news subjects. Infotainment-based websites and social media apps are gaining traction due to their focused publishing of infotainment content, e.g. BuzzFeed.

    Short cut keys in Infotainment

    Hello all, I've just bought a used Trophy ER and have been trying to get the radio working (I've just moved from France to the UK so have no experience with DAB).

    Hi all, I couldn't see a recent thread about this and did a search but couldn't find anything related. While the weather's been cold, I've been activating the heater & seat warmer through the App in the morning about 5-6 minutes before going out to the car. Every time I have activated the...

    I have a 22 MG5 Exclusive LR (Pre-Facelift). On the the radio screen I can see my 5 selected favourite radio stations. Below the 5th one, presumably where the 6th would be, there is a greyed out icon which I can do nothing with. Iseems to be a rectangular box with something in the middle...

    It's Arrived

    Still on R30, but has been absolutely faultless in the 500miles i've driven since it arrived yesterday. (what infotainment version got the update A/C layout and drop down menu?) Haven't really noticed the LKA or any of the driving aids coming down the A701/M6 so hopefully it's not out to get...

    Message relating to Sat Nav on infotainment screen

    On switching car on this morning I got this message on the infotainment screen. Where is the SD card? I’ve dismissed on this occasion. Satnav still working. Message hasn’t reappeared on any further journeys in car. Anyone else had this message?

    I can't bind my car!

    I picked up my new MG4 Trophy at the start of the week and while I'm enjoying it, there are some niggles. The main one is that I can't in any way shape or form bind the app to the car. I set up an account before getting the car but when I go into the log in part of settings, there's no QR code...

    Do R59 (Trophy) or newer fix any of these issues?

    1. Radio not starting when turning on the car. 2. Radio only find one channel. Have to reset infotainment to fix this. 3. Bluetooth disconnecting after 2-3 days. 4. Infotainment (rarely) restart during driving. 5. Make it less laggy?

    Radio stayed on.

    Strange thing today, the radio didn't turn off when I got out and locked the car. The screens went black as normal but the radio was still playing. Tried turning car off in the menus and getting out and restarting the car, still the same. The only way I could turn it off was by holding the home...

    Fog light not turning on

    I have always found it difficult to turn on the fog light due to the stupid positioning of the button on the touch-screen, but I did manage to do it once or twice. Not for a while though. I have had the infotainment upgraded from R13 to R33 since I last had the fog light on, I think. On Sunday...

    Screen Off

    I have not seen this referred to here and could not find any info in the 'manual' either. I had seen that the infotainment screen could be turned completely off to just leave a clock on a black screen. I asked AI which informed me to 'swipe down' on the screen. This shows another...

    Visual and audible Warning signs.

    Could anyone tell me please why I have got a steering wheel symbol flashing on the infotainment screen. This happened yesterday and there was a high pitched "chirping" what I can only think was some sort of warning. We only got the ZS Tommy last Wednesday bought brand new.
