Media
Solution
For many ce ll phones or mobile devices, playback is not possible
when the battery level is too low (less than 5% of its capacity).
The mobile
de -vice will only be recognized as a source in the MMI
after connecting if the battery charge is sufficient .
The
Bluetooth audio player f unction is switched on. Switch this
function off
c:> page 2 54 when you a re not using the Bluetooth
audio player.
Reset the Media settings to the facto ry defau lt settings
¢ page 2 52.
When connecting a nd disconnecting, the External audio player
source is already selected. Before connecting or disconnecting the
mobile device, either mute the device (see
c:> page 255) or switch
to a different audio source (for example
c:> page 225, Opening the
radio) .
Only one interface should be act ively used at a time to ensure
problem-free playback .
When importing playlists, a ll of the fi les themselves must be im-
ported.
If yo u cannot find impor ted tracks in the media center, they may
not be supported. Only copy supported files
c:> page 245 to the
Jukebox.
To establish a connection to the MMI, the MMI connection sw itch
must be switched on in the
Audi MMI connect app status screen .
Reset the
Media settings to the factory default settings
c:> page 252.
Playback interference can occur when using the Bluetooth audio
player
if a music player app from a th ird party provider is open.
Aud i recommends using the integrated media player on your Blue-
tooth dev ice (such as a smartphone) .
