Media
Introduction
There are various media drives and connections
avai lable in the MMI. You can play, for example,
audio/video files from the Jukebox* or connect
your mobile device to the Audi mus ic interface*
and operate it through the MMI.
Notes
General
Media and format restrictions: the MMI (includ-
ing the SD card reader and the USB storage de-
vice connection*) was tested with a variety of
products and media on the market. However,
there may be cases where individual devices or
media and audio/video* files may not be recog-
nized, may play only w ith restrictions or may not
play at all.
Digital Rights Management: please note that
the audio/video* files are subject to copyright
protection .
The media drives do not play fi les that are pro-
tected by ORM and that are ident ified with the
symbol
6'.'.I.
Data security: never store important data on SD
cards, the Jukebox*, CDs/DVDs or mobile devices.
Audi AG is not responsible for damaged or lost
files and media .
Loading times : the more files/fo lders/playlists
that are on a storage medium, the longer it will
take to load the audio/video files* . Audi recom-
mends using storage media that only contain au-
dio/video files* . To decrease the t i me it takes to
load audio/v ideo files*, create subfolders (for ex-
ample, fo r the art ist or album). The loading time
will also incr ease when importing files.
Additional information : when playing, aud io
files are automatically displayed w ith any add i-
tional information that is stored (such as the ar-
tist, track and album cover). If this information is
not available o n the sto rage med ium, the MMI
will check the Grace note metadata database .

CD/DVD operation
CD/ DVD and format restrictions :
the funct iona li-
ty of individ ual storage media may be limited due
to the variety of blank CDs/DVDs available and
the various capacities. Audio CDs or video DVDs
with copy protection, CDs/DVDs that do not con-
form to the standard and multi session CDs may
have limited playback or may not play at all. Audi
recommends finaliz ing the recording process
when creat ing mult isess ion CDs. Mult isess ion is
not supported for DVDs.
Using CDs/DVDs, the CD drive or the DVD drive:
to ensure correct, high-quality playback and to
prevent damage to the dr ive or disc read ing er-
rors, always store CDs/DVDs in a protective
sleeve and do not expose them to direct sun light.
Do
not use:
- Damaged, dirty or scratched CDs/DVDs
- Single CDs/DVDs (3 inch/8 cm diameter)
- CD/DVDs that are not round
- CDs/DVDs with labels
- Protective rings
- Clean ing CDs
Thermal protection switch: CD/DVD playback
may be temporari ly unavailable if outside tem-
peratures are extremely hot or co ld. A thermal
protect ion sw itch is insta lled t o protect the CD/
DVD and the laser.
Laser devices: laser devices are divided into safe-
ty classes 1 to 4 in accordance with DIN IEC 76
(CO) 6/VDE 083 7. The optical readers that are in-
sta lled conform to safety class
1. Lasers in this
class are very weak and well sh ielded, so there is
no danger if used correctly.
