We are about to purchase the JX and are curious if you can control the dvd player from the front seat? We noticed on a test drive we could skip through the previews but when it got to the "play" menu, we couldn't find a way to play it. I know it has to be in park and thats not an issue. We have a 2.5 year old that can't use a remote so really would like to be able to hit play from the front controls. Anyone designing suv's to compete with minivans should know this is what mom's want!!!

Everything with the dvd player is controllable from the front seat through the nav screen. Touching the screen will give you an overlay of the menu items. You can control everything from dvd menu items and functions to which screen you want on/off. The controller can also do everything from the second row seats. Seems like the controller and headset needs to be in direct line of site of the headrest screens to work. When the headsets are on, you can select radio and play other music for the car while the headset is playing the dvd audio.
