Media
Introduction
There are various media drives and connections
available in the MMI. For example, you can play
audio/video* files from the Jukebox* or connect
your mobile device to the Audi music interface*
and operate it through the MMI.
Notes
Media and format restrictions: the MMI (includ-
ing the SD card reader and the USB storage de-
vice connection*) was tested with a variety of
products and media available in the market.
However, there may be cases where individual de-
vices or media and audio/video* files may not be
recognized, may play only with restrictions or
may not play at all.
Digital Rights Management: please note that
the audio/video* files are subject to copyright
protection.
The media drives do not play files that are pro-
tected by DRM and that are identified with the
symbol fi.
Data security: never store important data on SD
cards, the Jukebox*, CDs/DVDs or mobile devices.
Audi AG is not responsible for damaged or lost
files and media.
Loading times: the more files/folders/playlists
that are on a storage medium, the longer it will
take to load the audio/video* files. Audi recom-
mends using storage media that only contain au-
dio/video files*. To decrease the time it takes to
load audio/video files*, create subfolders (for ex-
ample, for the artist or album). The loading time
will also increase when importing files.
Additional information: when playing, audio
files are automatically displayed with any addi-
tional information that is stored (such as the ar-
tist, track and album cover). If this information is
not available on the storage medium, the MMI
will check the Gracenote metadata database.
However, in some cases, the additional informa-
tion may not be displayed.
Restricted functionality: reset the Media set-
tings to the factory default settings if functional-
ity is restricted > page 231.
If functionality is restricted, reset the Jukebox*
to the factory default settings > page 231.
For information about the properties of support-
ed media and file formats, see > page 224.
CG) Note
Always follow the information found in © in
General information on page 182.
CD/DVD operation
CD/DVD and format restrictions: the functionali-
ty of individual storage media may be limited due
to the variety of blank CDs/DVDs available and
the various capacities. Audio CDs or video DVDs
with copy protection, CDs/DVDs that do not con-
form to the standard, and multisession CDs may
have limited playback or may not play at all. Audi
recommends finalizing the recording process
when creating multisession CDs. Multisession
DVDs are not supported.
Using CDs/DVDs, the CD drive or the DVD drive:
to ensure correct, high-quality playback and to
prevent damage to the drive or disc reading er-
rors, always store CDs/DVDs in a protective
sleeve and do not expose them to direct sunlight.
Do not use:
— Damaged, dirty or scratched CDs/DVDs
— Single CDs/DVDs with 3 in (8 cm) diameter
— CD/DVDs that are not round
— CDs/DVDs with labels
— Protective rings
— Cleaning CDs
Thermal protection switch: CD/DVD playback
may be temporarily unavailable if outside tem-
peratures
are extremely hot or cold. A thermal
protection switch is installed to protect the
CD/DVD and the laser.
Laser devices: laser devices are divided into safe-
ty classes 1 to 4 in accordance with DIN IEC 76
