I am getting a bit frustrated with the whole MP3 CD thing.
I have an 06 E60 April Build with aux input etc and so my single slot cd player should handle Mp3 right?
Using Itunes with preferences set to mp3 data cd and burning at the slowest speed on a Cd-R I just get the message "medium can not be read"
any ideas, is anyone else using itunes succesfully to burn Mp3 cd's?
Help appreciated.

My advice - try Windows and not iTunes!

The easiest way to burn MP3's with perfect ID3 tags and organization is to use the Windows XP built in burning program. Simply drag your MP3's to your burner drive. You can organize them into folders however you want using folders, or a numbering system.

What the hell is wrong with my car (Euro spec LCI with basic Hifi package)!? I can't get MP3 CDs work with ANY OF THESE SETTINGS. I have tried the settings instructed in that other thread with Nero, also tried to burn normal data CD with Nero, and I have also tried Windows XP's built-in burn program. Not to mention that I have used only quality media (Verbatim, TDK). Even Euro spec LCI without Hifi package should be able to play MP3s. The owners manual also mentions MP3 support (doesn't give burn settings though). I always get that "unsupported disc" -thing. One more problem with the disc drive: my new car hardly ever properly ejects homeburn media (although the drive has support for several different formats), sometimes it takes 15mins for the disc to come out of the drive.
Should I just go to my dealer and tell them to retrofit Logic7?

You're not using RW discs, are you? Other than that, I'm not sure what else is going on...

I have burned a CD that plays in the DVD drive but not in the CD changer drive, is it possible to play MP3 CD in the changer drive?

ed_foden: I got it working.. but only way it works is burning with that XP's drag-and-drop burning. I would prefer Nero of course, so if you have those settings they would be appreciated!
