07 Head Unit MP3 Playing Problem

How long is it supposed to take to load? For me it takes about a minute when i start up my car and sometimes it randomly cuts off and starts loading. Does anyone else have this problem?

I used iTunes to burn all my mp3s on the disc. Is their a better program i should use?

Its not like it doesnt work, it just takes long to load and sometimes pauses to load for a minute or more.

could it be that itunes might not be finalizing the disc? I had that problem with my portable cd player a few years back. I used another program to burn the songs as a data disc and made sure it finalized and it worked great after that.

Is there a way to check or fix it? I have a mac and dont wanna pay for a program.

How long does it take for your mp3 cd to load? Does it ever pause and start loadin again?

I've got an '06 and mine doesn't ever do that. I used WMP to burn the last MP3 data disk and it worked fine.

it prob takes about 10-15 sec to cue in and start playing. I use Nero or Windows Media player 10. But any cd burning program that can burn regular data should be just fine.

I use Nero most of the time and create a data disc. I just drag all the mp3s' I want over to it and burn. I hardly ever use an MP3 cd creating program. Just burning it as a data disc, just like you would copy any program or pics to a cd works just fine.
