Hello guys,
I'm a 23 Czech guy working as a programmer.
Currently, I am most interested in canbus hacking and MCA (plus) capabilities.
I am currently working on a video switcher for MCA.

Welcome Teroxis and thanks for introduction!
I'm also highly interested in the navigation systems, and also had build a switcher. Maybe we can work on this together? The main challenge is to enable the video on demand. Therefore i would like to have a separate CAN ID and also a input logic level signal on some unused port.
For this to work, i think we need to disassemble the firmware and find out where the CAN handling routines reside and what needs to be done in firmware to show up the video in.
Also, to react on users choices, there should be a way to read the touch screen and buttons in this mode.
I will now elevate your access rights to other forums of this board.

It can be simply as reading on CAN the status on NX and if in Video Mode then disconnect the touchscreen from NX and send the info to another device which is connected to that Android.

I have an identical idea as DGAlexandru...
Use the MCA touch panel to operate with Android device (Raspberry Pi).
The screen uses 4 wire connector, which can be operated used with something like this:

Then You need a "switcher" to switch between MCU and Raspberry to use that panel.
