Default Re: Getting the stock NAV to accept DVD output

I'm looking forward to Wile E's update on the video-to-nav hack. I have been trying to alter the LOADING.KWI file of the NAV 7.1 using a hex editor to replace the characters in "Check surroundings for safety" with spaces in order to clear the backup screen of this text for watching video on. There are over a dozen iterations of this string in there. Thus far, I have been unsuccessful in burning a DVD that will work. I would love to continue this trial and error but I'm making too many dual-sided DVD coasters. I haven't unhooked the fuse to reset the nav yet. Perhaps making it boot up from the modified DVD will work. Anyone have any ideas about how this might work?

I'm wondering whether the hex editor simply doesn't save the modified file in the exact same way. I'm thinking there is something in the software that prevents anyone from simply altering the LOADING.KWI file with a hex editor.
