Hello my friends.
I 've just get my new C350 sports coupe from Greece with comand aps DVD and order code number "527".

I'd like to know if it's possible to play mp3 audio on DVD?

Thank's in advance

p.s. Sorry for my bad english.

C230 Sport Coup

In my US model 2006 C350 Sport Sedan the COMAND head unit plays MP3's burnt to a CD. To my knowledge it's not DVD compatible. The CD Changer will also support MP3 CD's.

Don't know about the Euro Spec unit, they sometimes get cool stuff we just drool over here

ONLY if you have gotten the CD player with MP3.

I think there is a DVD unit offered. I saw it on german ebay. but I think its aftermarket.

Do you mean the CD Player in the HU? Because before I put the COMAND in my 06, the HU CD player wouldn't play MP3's but my CD Changer would. It just took forever to scan the whole disk and start playing it.

I'll post pictures of my car as soon as possible my friends

I don't have CD Changer in my car. I' d like to play mp3 from DVD on comand.
I 've read somewhere that it's possible in some comand's. I 'll get my car from dealer in a couple of days. Does anyone know any way to get into hidden menu or something similar?

Thank's in advance.

mp3 changers were introduced in 06. They are compatable with 05 cars but nothing prior to this.

I thought they were NOT compatable with 05 HU, c230 05 gave the dealer a call and said it will not work!??


also, the oem mp3 player takes a million years to load!?? my avic n2 HU takes abt, 5 seconds to load the disc.

I have the latest COMAND APS installed in my MY06 C220CDI Elegance Sport Edition (European). I also have the CD changer. It is indeed an Alpine one (it is written on the disc holder), and it takes between 4 and 5 seconds to _change_ disc. This means stop, unload, replace, pick, load, play. I found that it is very much depending on the brand of the disc. Poor quality ones will make the mechanism try to load the TOC and start play in as much as 6 to 8 seconds, and sometimes it will fail to load. Just to mention, my above average timings are the ones I get using CDRW, not even CDR, and full loaded of MP3 files.. They are TDK CDRW.

Bye
