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.

    Infotainment does not shut down

    Hi. I have a 2023 ZSEV trophy long range. When I turn off the car using the start/stop button the infotainment stays on, so music keeps on playing etc. When I open the door and get out it still stays on. It only turns off when the car is locked. Is this normal?

    FL Infotainment

    Am I right in thinking that the infotainment system in the FL is the same as what's in the MG4 Trophy? It certainly looks the same. Reason for asking is that on the MG website tech specs for the 4, they mention "Live services (additional services include Weather, Live Traffic, Amazon Music)"...

    Blank Infotainment screen - reset

    Stopped at the shops briefly and returned to drive off and the infotainment screen was blank. Got out, locked and unlocked the car but still no screen. After Googling, I found that you need to hold in the Home button (the one with the 'house' under the screen) for at least 10 seconds and this...

    Has anyone had their infotainment screen replaced on a ZS Trophy? I got my car 3 months ago but the day after delivery I noticed there were a couple of chips on the screen.

    Infotainment screen often doesn't light up

    I've had a red SE long range for about 3 weeks and it has been great so far except the infotainment screen. On occasions it seems to take a couple of miles driving before the screen comes alive. It doesn't happen every time and there doesn't seem to be an obvious pattern. Today it was fine on...

    MG HS PHEV Infotainment

    The infotainment screen on our HS PHEV exclusive (reg March22) HAD a habit of going blank on long journies, sometimes re-booting, sometimes not until I powered the car down and did a full restart.

    Hi all, I’ve not seen any posts relating to the infotainment screen brightness at night. I find it far too bright.
