Hi,

Has anyone managed to play a DVD MP3 disc in a Professional Nav equipped E60?

I doesn't seem to work for me. CD MP3 works in both the CD slot and the DVD slot.

Cheers.

Many others on here have managed.

I find 7 hours MP3 on a CD more than I can bear.

I tried to figure out how to do it, but found the Missus was listening to AM radio...

It works fine on my car.

I'm sure if you search around here a bit, you'll find many discussions about DVD MP3 discs...

about 200 songs on a cd is alot and you will not get to lisen to all 200 within a day.
unless you do about 10hrs a day,
I have well over 10,000 songs in my MP3 player and no way will I get to lisen to them all.

I have Pre LCI and works perfect (in the Nav Tray).

It is even so that if you program Navigation, take out Nav DVD, put in MP3 DVD, the navigation will continue.

I managed to get it working last night shortly after I posted.

I ended up using Infrarecorder, which is a free burner program. Seems to be working fine on a 4Gig DVD-RW. I'll be trying a dual layer disc next when I get some.

Thanks to everyone for their replies anyway.

Until the data in memory is exhausted. Which could leave you listening to MP3 while lost.

What a pleasure.
