A method and apparatus is provided for synchronizing programming content between a mobile apparatus (e.g., a vehicle) and a residential network. The method begins by receiving a wireless content-identifying signal from a mobile apparatus through an access device located on a premises. The wireless content-identifying signal identifies a first source of programming content that is available to a first rendering device associated with the mobile apparatus. Based on the wireless content-identifying signal, a second source of the programming content is identified which is available to a second rendering device located on the premises. A control signal is transmitted to the second rendering device directing the second rendering device to access and render the programming content. |
