Help - not sure what to call it..

Okay, at the top of the dash, where it shows your air condition settings and shows what radio station your on/disk/track number - Is there a way to change it when its playing a cd to, instead of saying disk#&track#, to say the track name?

Thanks in advance...

Display button down on the center near the cassette player will cycle through the different display types on that upper display.

I could never get any of my disc to display artist title ect. I just made the assumption I had to have an actual DVD-A for it to show any info and never looked much further into it.

MP3 CDs show lots of info (disc title, file name, artist, or track title) from the ID3 tags. The DVD-A disc I have does not show any info though.

I buy a lot of CDs and put it in.

Surprisingly, MOST of the original disks from record companies do not carry the information to be displayed.

Get Nero burning rom and make a copy of the disk and
(for my case)
the Nero goes to internet, and finds the artist, each songs' title, and album name and puts it in the copied CD.

It works for me since 2007.

Plus, why keep the CD in the car in case something happens?? use the clone. I love my CDs lol

Oh, btw, the Nero automatically optains the information when copying.

also, the CD changer and the cloth blocking the disk slot scratches disks a little, so I don't like to put originals in the car.
