Has anyone been able to do this with a STOCK 2005 E500/320? I am able to do the 537 trick and bring up the menus, but setting it to 211ECE doesn't seem to do anything.
I am however, able to play CD or DVD MP3s just fine -- without doing the 537 trick.
Would love to hear from any other stock 2005s who've had success with making changes with the trick that have any visible or audible effects. I really want to hear the Brit chick on my Nav.
Thanks,
Tom

I have thrown in all my best porno DVD's and I still can't get a reaction from my COMAND unit.
Maybe we need douse it with German beer before it reveals it's secrets.........

You can try this:
For all of your guys from Europe that has a car that is equipped with DVD/TV, and is frustrated when the screen goes black at 8 km/h and above. Here is the solution:
Take your car to your dealer, and talk to the guy who is responsible for the Star Diagnostic System.
Ask him to do the following:
1. Menu “TV in Motion” is greyed out (German: TV während der Fart)
2. Activate the “Rear Seat Monitor” (even if it’s not installed) (German: Heckmonitore freigeben)
3. Then you will have access to the menu: “TV in motion”. Activate it.
4. Go to the menu: DVD-Region. If it’s EUROPE, change it to D (Germany) and back to Europe
5. Give the guy some pocket money
Enjoy, but be aware: It’s your responsibility as a driver to keep your eyes on the road, and leave the entertainment to your passenger!
Ps.
The menus will probably not be exactly as I spelled it, but you/he will find something very similar.

You are no doubt aware of my opinion on this issue, so hopefully you will understand if I do not wish you luck getting this issue resolved.

Sometimes it's better to bring up an old thread to ask questions than to start a new one and have people tell you to do a "search". Hopefully he can get his question answered by someone other than OP.
I think for the 07's you might just have to switch to a Euro Comand.

Just so I know I am reading this correctly, in the United States of America, there is no loophole to activate video in motion? Correct?

2004 E320 USA, TITANITE RED - METALLIC
(found a quarter and a dime inside the player and after I removed I forgot to try the dvd, it was showing dvd and audio cd before on the load screen.. I updated and lost it..
)After reading the thread it appears the that the 05+ US hardware was updated thus removing video decoding.
A few enthusiastic people have retrofitted their cars with the 04 head but I don't know what that entails..
Best..
