i jst enable video in motion a week ago. i quite simple when you know how. right u hav to enter the engineer mode for that.
1. Press audio button to get into audio mode
2. To access the engineering mode Press and hold the mute button, press and hold serv button and phone button (hang up phone button, the button closest to the eject button) Simultaneously hold all 3 buttons until you get a message on the screen which says "Welcome to Engineering Mode" n.b if the service screen comes when u press the 3 buttons together you wont get into engineer mode try again, it should stay on the audio screen until the engineer mode comes up
3. you will now be in the engineer mode with s-ware, h-ware, MOST.... softkey buttons on the left hand side
4. now you need to get into the secret menu which will appear on the right hand side of the screen where the softkeys are. to do this press and hold the “*” star key press and hold the “#” hash key press and hold the “<” arrow left key Simultaneously hold all 3 buttons as indicated above. n.b this combination didnt work on my dads cls350 so this is what i pressed the # key then while keeping hold of it press the * within a second and then keeping the 2 buttons pressed press the < key within a second and hold simultaneously until 3 softkey buttons appear on the right hand side of then screen with the first one begining dr.dist.
5. now you will have 3 new softkey buttons which are dr.dist, regcod, backd...
6. press dr.dist and untick all of the boxes now you should be able to watch video in motion how ever fast you are going. n.b when you come back out of an secret menu e.g dr.dist. the 3 secret menus disappear from the engineer mode screen to get it back just repeat step 4
7. Regcod - in here you can change your dvd region settings
8.Backdoor - you can enable mp3 playback (should already me enabled, if not enable it)
-enable lct feature(dont know what this is)
-enable hollandmmi feature (this is a law in holland where you cant type in a navigation address on anything on comand while the vehicle is moving)
Enable IPS feature (i dont know what this is)
hope this helped you
any probs let me knw and if you want to get into the navigation service menu
The Euro Comand units play DVDs as standard these days
Do you have a part number for this unit? Where else can we get it besides the dealership?
Can you ask the dealership to install it from you? if so, does it void warranty?

You can't get it at dealerships. Just buy it off a euro ebay
Dealer can install it, can't answer the warranty part. I'm sure if something
happens to the unit you buy, they won't cover it, but your existing unit should be covered.
Hi Interested to read your post on unblocking the command system. I have a 2006 CLK (European) with tv tunner, mercedes blocks the ability to play DVD,s on the CLK (marketing ploy) even though the unit is the same as higher models, E class etc. Would like to play DVD's and also allow passenger to view when in motion. Do you know if this is possible ?
