Introduction
The MMI system includes various media drives
and provides various options for connecting devi
ces. For example, you can play audio/video* files
from the jukebox or connect a mobile device to
the Audi music interface* and operate it via the
MMI.
Notes General notes
Media and format limitations: The MMI system
(incl uding the SD card reader and the connection
for the USB mass storage device*) has been tes
ted for use with many of the products and media
currently available on the market. However, there
may be some devices/media and audio/video*
files that are not supported or cannot be played,
or the functionality may be limited under certain
circ umstances.
Copyright: Please note that copyright law applies
to audio/video* files.
The MMI media drives do not support ORM-pro
tected files; these files are marked with the sym
bol ffi.
Data storage: Never store important data on SD
cards, the jukebox*, CDs/DVDs or mobile devices.
Audi shall not accept any liability whatsoever for
the loss of files and media.
Loading times: The more files, folders or play
lists are stored on a storage device, the longer it
will take to load the audio files/video* files. We
recommend using a storage device which con
tains only audio/video* files. If you want to re
duce the time it takes to load the audio/video*
files, you can create subfolders (e.g. for an artist
or album). The loading time will be extended ad
ditionally if you are importing data.
Metadata: Metadata stored on audio files (e.g.
artists, tracks, album covers) will be displayed
automatically when the files are played. If this in
formation is not stored on the relevant medium,
the MMI system will use the database of metada-
168 ta
from Gracenote. Nevertheless, metadata may
not be displayed in some cases.
Restricted performance: If you experience re
stricted performance, reset the Media settings
to the factory defaults ¢ page 187.
If you experience restricted performance from
the Jukebox*, reset it to the factory settings
¢page 187.
For information on the characteristics of the sup
ported media and file formats, please refer to
¢ page 177 onwards.
CD/DVD mode
CD/DVD and format limitations: In view of the
variety of CDs/DVDs and the difference in memo
ry capacities, the functionality may be restricted
in the case of some storage devices. Under cer
tain circumstances, audio CDs/video DVDs that
are copy-protected or CDs/DVDs that do not com
ply with the standard audio format, and multi
session CDs cannot be played at all, or the func
tionality may be limited. We recommend always
finalising the burning process when creating mul
tisession CDs. Multisession is not supported for
DVDs.
Handling CDs/DVDs, the CD drive or the DVD
drive: To ensure perfect, high-quality playback
and avoid scanning errors or damage to the me
dia drive, always store CDs/DVDs in a suitable
case and do not expose them to direct sunlight.
Do not use:
- Damaged, dirty or scratched CDs/DVDs
- Single CDs/DVDs (diameter 8 cm / 3 inches)
- Non-circular CDs/DVDs (shape CDs)
- CDs/DVDs with stickers
- Protective rings
- Cleaning discs
Thermal cut-out: In the case of unusually hot or
cold outside temperatures, it is possible that CD/
DVD playback will temporarily not be possible. A
thermostat switch is installed to protect the CD/
DVD and the reading laser.
Laser devices: Laser devices are divided into the
safety classes 1 to 4, as specified by DIN IEC 76
..,.
