Sorry for not getting back sooner devilt.  I think Lyon has kindly dug out the forum post...

I can confirm the DVD playback "hack" works on firmware 1200 and 2600.  I have a rev. C unit.

Nice one.

I am getting a version B as I have a 56 GTi, how old is your car? If old as mine do you suffer from battery drainage?

APologies, forgot all about it! I have a dvd sitting beside my keys so ill try it in the morning.

My car is 07 and i have a version B with no battery drain.

I think the battery drainage issue is related to the CANBUS revision...anything above later than rev. K is fine... may be someone on the forum can elaborate further...

Thanks. Do you know how I can check what Canbus version I have.

Also is it quite easy to upgrade from 1200 to 2600?

VCDS (VAG-COM) tells which revision of the canbus is installed.

I have the image for 2600 - which I can some how get over to you.

That would be good, I will give you a shout when I need it. Still one thing confusing the hell out of me, the difference between a B version and a C version.

I read the C version has DAB, so does this mean it is the whole RNS510 unit that is different?

Have you added the DAB aerial?
In a thread it says that the C has DAB.  :confused:

No where in the menu system is there a DAB option...not even "greyed" out (disabled).

Where would the DAB aerial normally be situated?

Mmm, you may have an earlier version of C then, look at the first post on page 10 of this thread:
