It only has 1 player... not 2. You need another DVD player or video game console to split between 2 screens. You plug into the inputs next to the 120v jack.

so my questions are

1) if i put a dvd in the front changer, car in P and parking brake engaged, video will start playing on the navigation screen and also audio through car ml system. now would the same video show up in the rses screens? or they will remain shut off?

2) now assume car in P and parking brake engaged. you put in a dvd in the rses, start playing on the rear screens. would the same video be shown on the front navigation screen? how about the audio, would it be played through the ml system?

3) more complicated. say front changer is playing audio cd. car is in P and parking brake engaged. rses playing dvd video. would the video show up on the front navigation screen? if so, what would be the audio (from cd changer up front or dvd from rses)? and am i right that you press on the DISC button up front to cycle through CD changer -> RSES -> CD changer ....?

I did not see the answers to the 3 questions posed by the original poster.

Can someone with the 2010 RX with Rear Seat Entertainment answer these questions?

Also, is it possible to play IPod video on the front Nav and Rear Entertainment screens?

answer: yes, the same video will show up in the rses screens. you can turn them on or off via the rses remote control or through the mouse navi interface.

answer: there is only one dvd changer that comes with the rses (which is the dvd changer in the front). so same answer as #1 above.

answer: if you play audio cd up front, your rses screens will not show any video (but it will show titles like cd, am/fm, sat). again, video from rses comes from the front dvd changer, so it's not possible to play audio cd and dvd video at the same time. however front passengers can listen to am/fm/sat while rear passengers listen/watch dvd movies via headphones. if you press the disc button up front, it will cycle through all the audio discs and dvd discs in the dvd changer (ie: disc 1 -> disc 2 -> disc 3, etc)

Thanks for your answers Stormforge.

Is it possible to play iPod video on the front Nav screen or on the RSES screens?

Is there a USB input for the RSES, or is it just the red, yellow, white component input?

no usb input for the RSES that i know of. don't recall seeing a red, yellow, white component input, just a regular video in jack. i can take a few pics for you and post up for you to see. give me a couple of days, been busy at work here.
