Is it possible to play any media on the iDrive screen from an iPhone, videos, YouTube etc ?
What about from usb stick ?

Usb is doable, have to either enable the extra codecs or make sure to use the right ones. As for screen iPhone, not sure, but on android auto you can use carstream

My understanding is that Apple don't allow it for safety reasons. The only option is Apple CarPlay, and that doesn't allow any video apps.

It is possile but you need to jailbreak the iPhone and use carplay bridge.It will mirror any app that you choose. Will only work with videos that do not use HDCP such as Plex, youtube. Netflix and disney plus has HDCP and will no display.
