VCP is not needed for seat sound.

[leonlad]

i have managed to apply seat sound to a mib2 technisat unit with just the use of carscanner app pro.

i stumbled on this thread which gave hope without having to get vcp and zdc files like i did with my first mib2 unit.

however why go to the trouble of editing datasets when i already have the correct ones from a vcp patched unit already, so i just copied the data sets from the enabled mib2 unit and wrote them to the new unit and it worked.

i used a vlinker mc+ ble elm327 unit and carscanner pro. you can also add fec`s with this too. its bloody brilliant.

just replace these strings for both data sets with seat sound ones.

This is great and possibly very useful - thanks! I remember you saying on another thread you changed your sound config from 5 door to 3 door - is that one of the bits/bytes in these datasets (because I would be changing it back to 5 for an estate if I were to try this!).

And yes CarScanner Pro seems great, especially for those comfortable with bits & bytes - compared to OBDeleven it appears less polished (in my initial forays so far) but it's also far cheaper and works with cheap generic ODB wireless interface dongles/adapters.

No, car type is a different setting. This just activates seat sound where it splits audio and gives the subwoofer setting.

Car type you can change after, let me know if it works, make a backup of the string you currently have also before changing.

Backup done and checked against your files above in Excel - same length but lots of changes (283 bytes changed in 0x3000, just 4 changed in 0x3B00)!

Will give your files a whirl in a few minutes..

saves a trip to a coding guy.

The sound quality changed instantly when i did mine.
