What does your manual say?

My C238 manual says the following:
The multimedia system supports the following formats:
  • MPEG
  • AVI, DivX, MKV
  • MP4, M4V
  • WMV

Due to the large variety of available video files regarding encoders, sampling rates and
data transfer rates, playback cannot always be guaranteed.

Copy-protected video files or DRM (Digital Rights Management) encrypted files cannot be played back

I don't think Audio 20 has video capability. Then it would be Video 20. The US members all have COMAND and their responses are mostly irrelevant.

There are some third-party products that will add the capability, I think.
