rear entertainment question

I just bought an '06 R500 w/ the oem rear entertainment. Unfortunately, I don't have the manual for it yet and can't figure out how it works. How do I adjust the volume on the wireless headsets and how do I view two different videos at the same time? TIA

If I'm not mistaken, you can't watch two different movies on a pre-2009 R? You can play a video game on one and watch a movie on the other but not watch two separate movies. Ours is an '08 and I can tell you first hand that you can't.

R Klasse, are your headsets wireless?

I have similar problem and I don't know how to solve it - I have replaced COMMAND with Kenwood DNX9140. Due to HU is dual zone, I'd like use OEM Monitors and play video on the back.
I am wondering if somebody give me an idea how to wire HU video output to BOTH monitors.

Desperately waiting for answer ...
