Any tips on using voice recogntion--any what is possible with it? Have used almost 1/2 tanks of petrol in last 4 days--about 115 KM DONE SO BURNING THE FUEL WELL i guess The heated seats are awsesome. Oscar |

Voice recognition - just talk normally. Much quicker to set Navigation via voice, and dial from phone book than using the dial.

I found it much easier just to call via the handset, or wait till i hit traffic lights and use the dials. I think not having idrive actually makes it quicker in using manual interface.

I find it quicker to use the idrive and screen.
Finding names is easy if you search by alphabet. Enter the letter the name starts with then scroll to name. Not too much fuss there. I find the voice reconigtion is bad and takes longer, more trouble than its worth. Especially when it accidentally calls the wrong person like your mother in-law. |

what i want to know is exactly what kind of music files are recognised by the system. I had read in the audio forums that Apple Lossless Codec (ALC) is readable, however after re-uploading about 50 triple cd albums i tested it on a loaner 325i and i found it to see the files but state that they are not in a "readable format"
A real PITA...... whilst the 126kbps that all my music was in was shit and needed to be re-uploaded, i really don't want to have to start again, or create another music file directory for the music in another codec.
