DVD data disks in Leon radio?

[dannychapman10]

Hi guys,

Does anyone know if the MK2 Leon radio will play DVD data disks for music? I.E I could load 4.7gb's of music and would it play? I have changed my headunit but want my steering wheel controls back

thanks,
Danny.

Not DVD, no. Regular CD with MP3 data on will be fine.

Or get a steering wheel interface.

The MFD3 will, but not the standard headunit

Is there no end to what the MFD3 can do.

Would be nice if it made you a cuppa before you go to work

You need the Beverage Reheat Extension Widget for that option to work.

(I know, I know - it's the best I can come up with on a Saturday morning.....!)

Does the MFD3 play dvd films? or just dvd music and sat nav data? and does it have any outputs/inputs for a sub and amp?

DVD Films too

Also HDD to store MP3 Albums on

DVD Films too

How about films on the move?!
I'm trying to find something it doesn't do! it's a good bit of kit

Apparently No.. But i haven't actually tried driving with the DVD playing yet.

If it doesnt, then i wouldnt be surprised if you can buy a cable that allows it to play. Normally linked up via the handbrake.. i.e. handbrake on, DVD will play if off DVD wont play!

It's a bit more sophisticated than that it read the vehicle speed through the Can Bus -

You need something like this to enable it http://www.kufatec.de/shop/product_info.php/info/p529_TV-in-Motion----Plug---Play----VW-MFD2-RNS2-RNS-510-RNS-810.html

The MDI Media In iPod control is a good optional feature too

Have you tried an iPhone 3g in it, just wondered if it charges and works ok... thinking of getting the MDI especially now I can stream all the music from my home pc to the iPhone

Tried a Pre - 3G one and worked and charged fine, I recall the charging pin changed position on the connector on the 3G ones though, so although it would work I'm not sure about the charging

That's what I'm thinking, it's not just the charging either some connectors ask you to put the iPhone in airplane mode too...
