How do I override DVD playback being disabled during driving on the RNS 510?

Putting aside safety considerations... is there a way to stop the DVD play back screen going blank when driving? 

I'd like the missus and kids to be able to watch DVDs whilst I'm driving....

VC:
bear in mind its illegal for the driver to be able to see the screen in the dash whilst driving.

but its just a question of earthing it, when you lift your handbrake the connection to earth is made and it will work, permanently earth it and it will stay on, easy job  :happy2:

^^you sure that works on the RNS510  :confused: , as i thought the unit was more clever than that and needed a special loom (here http://kufatec.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=5_10&products_id=382 ) to fool the car into letting you play stuff on the move

VC:
ah....i was thinking from an aftermarket point of view, could be different then, would have thought the principle was the same?

JPC:
for the RNS i think it reads can bus signals regarding speed.  you will need to buy the kufatec adaptor.

i can confirm this works very well, it will work during driving. i have only tested this on a private test track though. i guess it would work on the highway, but i havent tested it.
