Watch Videos from iPhone via 3rd party App.

Hey all, I am trying to watch videos that are streamed from an external server through a 3rd part App on the iPhone. At present the system detects iTunes media, but when trying to use a 3rd party App, nothing seems to work. Any ideas?

CarPlay integration the only only comprehensive solution for app integration.

I am hearing that 2016 is finally the year for MB to implement this, so I am hoping for a retrofit.
