Video on screen
Is there a way to force the video created by a DVD to stay displayed on the (Sat Nav) screen while driving? Standard it fades the image and displays a text notification from MB. I would like the passenger to view the DVD while I'm driving!

Regards

Wynand

Yes there is, do a search on the other SLK forum and you can find a PDF which tells you how to do this. It requires doing a button combo on the COMAND system.

I agree with JBanks. All new and future members "must" include their location when they register if they want correct responses. Many of us will not answer anyone without a location.

Doesn't work for the US COMMAND but if you want one, you can get a EU COMMAND on ebay and install that.

He did say that the movie plays if he isn't moving... so he's probably from the UK or other part of Europe.

I sent him an e-mail with the PDF. I didn't mention the other forums because the admins of this one might not want them to be mentioned *shrug*
