Video In on SLK 05/06 NTG1

Hi Guys

Been researching for over a week now and really need some expert info. How do i get video on on my NTG1 Comand unit?

I have looked under the passanger seat and pulled out the audio gateway, there is a green Fakra connection which apparently is for the "Media Interface cable" part number "A001 827 8004".

The problem i see now is when i do connect it how do i get the video to actually play on the Comand screen? On Video i only have the DVD option, no option for AV1 or Aux Video, i have seen youtube videos in US and Europe of people able to do this.

After some research people have been saying that a Merc Tech must use the Star Diagnostics tool to enable it. I took it to my local Mercedes dealer and the technician apparently tried but said there was no paramaters for this option?

I'm in Australia and i must say the knowledge and interest in this sort of thing is very limited.

Can some-one please help or does anyone know an expert in Sydney that can install something to make this happen?
