SD CARD???
« on: 30 May 2011, 13:01 »
Since purchasing the GTI Pirelli I have not used the SD card function on the stereo. Is it just music I can upload on to the card or can I upload videos on 2 it 2?? If so what size memory card do you guys recommend?

What stereo do you have? Is it a VW OEM unit?

I'm 99.9% sure the RNS510/RCD510 cannot read videos from the SD card, only music (and in only mp3 and wma formats)
New: White Mk7.5 GTI (Standard...for now :smiley:)
Gone but not forgotten:
Diamond Black 2007 (56) Golf GTI 3Dr DSG ¦ 18" Monza II's ¦ Cruise control ¦ MFSW with Paddles ¦ Highline ¦ Rear parking sensors ¦ RCD500 to RNS510 C LED to Kenwood DNX521DAB ¦ Lowered on H&R springs ¦ R32 Rear bumper ¦ BCS Powervalve Sports R32 style TBE ¦ LED Rear Lights ¦ PDT Stage 1 ¦ NQSBBK ¦ 12mm Spacers ¦

My RNS 510 doesn't read the higher capacity SDHC cards only the old SD cards. So it's limited to 2Gb :-(

Don't really want to mess with the firmware as I'm afraid of bricking it.

Bobo, it ain't difficult to upgrade the firmware.

My version B plays from a 32GB SDHC.

The RNS510 supports only DVDs - one of the many restrictions it has.
