Question Playing tunes through IPOD

Hi,

Just wondering if anyone else has the same problem when connecting an Ipod through the USB port in the Glove box as detailed below?.........

I have a Grande Punto Sporting with Blue & Me and can connect my Ipod through the USB port in the glove box with no real problems. However, when playing an album/playlist from the ipod I have to manually flick on to the next tune when one is finished, by pressing a button on the steering wheel, or it will automatically keep repeating that tune!!! I have checked the Ipod itself and it is not set to repeat and plays normally through earphones etc but the Blue & Me system seems not to be able to flick through songs automatically. It's no biggy I suppose as it doesn't take much to move my thumb and press the button lol, but would be nice when using the shuffle feature or playing an album if it went from song to song with no button pressing.........

Re: Playing tunes through IPOD

Hehe had the same issue fella.

By the looks of it there set to repeat by default.

Hit your microsoft button on the steering wheel, then in your very best speaking voice (lol) repeat the following

Loop off.

Question Re: Playing tunes through IPOD

Cheers for that people, it worked a treat . One other thing........does anyone else find that their albums play mostly out of sequence??? i.e if an album has 13 tracks it might play track 11 first, then 5, then maybe 1,2,3,4,6, etc etc? Again, this isn't the order that the tracks are listed on the IPOD so was wondering why it chooses to play em this way? Any Ideas???

Re: Playing tunes through IPOD

The Blue and Me seems to list the songs in alphaetical order for some reason. I just set the Blue and me to shuffle and let it get on with it and don't worry about i too much.
