Hi everyone. would like to share some pictures of my video setup in the car. There is 10 disk dvd changer in the trunk, which connects to MB tuner for COMAND video and connect to video processor for rear screens. Video quality is excellent! Everything looks great, but the only problem is the delay of picture in Comand. I guess MOST fiber optics delays everything by 1 second, therefore rear Monitors display picture faster than COMAND itself. It took me about 12 hours for the whole setup (installing original MB MOST TV tuner, headrest screens and running wires to the trunk, then installing dvd changer and video processor)

EuroComand is from Steve, which I got half year ago.
Monitors and Video processor unit are by SAVV company. The quality of both is great.
TV Tuner is from MBDOCTOR.COM. Thanks to them!
I tried other products for Comand video input, but the quality is totally inaceptable. Original TV tuner is THE ONLY way to go.

Great setup you've got there.
How do you control the Kenwood DVD Changer? I guess it's not controlled by the COMAND nor steering wheel. Right?

I had EuroComand by SteveNL for a while.
After that I just replaced my SAT unit in the right trunk area. Harness is exactly the same.. It is just "plug and play" if you have SAT sirius option. Nothing to programm

Isn't the TV button in the same position as the SAT button? How do you control both SAT and TV on the Euro-COMAND?
