Issues with playing iPhone music via Bluetooth
I have a 2022 E53. Having issues with music played through iPhone via Bluetooth. All was well got the first year. Now when it connects it will show the songs as 43 of 11230.
After playing for 30 seconds the display will show -1 of 11230
(That’s minus 1 of 11230) and it will not play. Have to go back to the phone a start with a new song several times before it will play. Went to iTunes forum and it suggested deleting the Music app on phone and reinstalling. I did that however the -1 of 11230 will appear and I need to do steps explained above. Thinking possibly it might be an MB issue I deleted my phone from Bluetooth and reinstalled it. Same issue still.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Thanks for the input, what bitrate does Bluetooth support?

Sorry I should clarify, BT can handle similar but it depends on other variables, namely codecs, versions, etc. Carplay is going to be better, wired and wireless, both will play up to CD quality without the fuss of BT. BTW most head units don't play higher than CD quality. I'm not sure what burmester can do but I'd guess it's the same 48 MHz 16 bit unless you have the high end one with 25+ speakers, even then I'm not sure if the head unit can process 24bit files, unless it's the very new ones with Dolby Atmos.
