I have extensively searched about this but cannot find any logical solution that might get me settled.

I have a business nav and my cd player plays MP3 CD. Ive noticed that when i insert my navigation dvd that the drive is also a dvd drive.

So i tried burning a MP3 DVD with about 4GB of songs. This also plays but the problem is that it only plays up to 137th song and it doesn't show the rest of the songs.

i dont think that i am burning the disc wrong since the MP3 DVD works but it doesn't give me all the tracks on the cd.

Any thoughts???

hi Plan B,

Yes, i have read this in the forum somewhere that there is a limitation due to computing power of the onboard computer.

I think it might be possible to fix with some coding, but the ipod retorfits get a similar issue with a song limit too

if coding is the problem then i might give the dealership a call see what they say and the cost of it.

Are they in folders or is it just a dump of songs?

If you have them all on the root, you might want to try breaking them up into folders.

i burned two folders with about 450tracks each. only one folder shows up and displays up to 248songs which compare to an MP3 CD is better.

still i cant get all the songs to display.
