No dealer will unlock your tv/dvd in motion,as its technically against the law.
Im in the UKguys so i dont know were to send you but im sure there are plenty of companies that do these things for a living. Google tv in motion thats a good starting point.

Afriend of mine Steve hooks his laptop up to a gadget called optican then hooks it up to the obd port and unlocks it, takes 10 seconds mate, he done it on mine.

you seem to have two related problems - your 'slot' in the COMAND is a CD and not DVD player and you dont have mp3 enabled - sorry but you're back to square one.
Its likely that to do all this you need a new COMAND. Its worth talking to a tech at the dealer and see what they suggest. If its a new COMAND contact Steve MBNL (do a search). He's also a very good source of information and does software upgrades (I think).

But it reads dvd navigation... So I think it haves a dvd reader...
Thank you for your suggestion, i will try contact Steve...

CLS55 AMG
hey guys... i have a CLS55 AMG, one of the very last to leave the factory (manufactured in june 2006), and i cant get the engineering menu to work.. The car has been to the dealer but no software updates have (AFAIK) been done to it.. Do you reckon it came with the new software straight out of the factory???

You have an old style COMAND if the slot takes navigation DVDs. The Es have the nav reader in the trunk. I think you will need expert advice - Steve MBNL will help.

What year car did the euro comand come off, ?? if its 04+ most likely its had latest software installed thats why EM is disabled.
