Large DAB Logos ?

[Sootchucker]

Hi guys, sorry if this has been asked before, but I can't seem to find exactly what I'm after.

I've set up a number of FM and DAB logos on my Discover Nav Pro, and all display perfectly when in the pre-set list mode.

However, when you are on the DAB waveband, and have the ability to switch between pre-set list, station info, radio text or slideshow mode, as most of the UK DAB stations don't seem to broadcast logos or track images, it fills in the logo area with my artwork I used in the "pre-set" view above.

Trouble is, this artwork is really small, and the "holder" for the station info or slideshow artwork is many times bigger, so I end up with a very small logo showing on these pages (see below for a better explanation - no jokes about my station choice please  ).

Does anyone know if there is the ability to display the artwork on these views at the much large sizes ?

I've noticed this as well, which is why I always keep it in the 'list view' as per your first picture.  I'll be interested as well should anyone know the answer!

I have the same problem. Would be interested to know if it can be fixed.

btw - just playing around the other day with all the stations and noticed that the BBC World Service has a proper large logo displayed. I think it must be broadcast by the station, because I didn't program it in.

I also don't get them coming up in order when I'm channel hoping using the buttons on the steering wheel so for example the display may show Radio 1, Capital, Smooth but then when I toggle I get Radio 1, BBC Scotland then maybe capital. Seems odd?

Craig, in the settings you have the option to use the buttons on the steering wheel button to skip to the next station actually on the waveband, or (as I have it), skip to your next pre-set only.

Ah thanks for that pal. I also noticed tonight that I uploaded a different capital fm logo to you however when I flipped over to the bigger image it was the logo you have on your screen but the smaller size as well. That must mean that capital also have their logo broadcast like BBC world news but only it's small size

Do you guys just upload the logos to an sd card. Also my phone contacts don't come up in the info screen next to the speedo. One last thing contact photos also aren't displayed. Anyone know how to sort these issues sorry to drag off topic

[Sootchucker]

Yes, load the logos onto an SD card, then in the radio setup menu you can select them for each preset you have saved (and have a logo for).

With regards to phone contact photos, this seems very flaky and seems to be only supported by a limited range of phones (and apple iPhones are excluded).

Finally the contacts menu not appearing in the DIS screen of the instrument panel, is something a number of us have an issue with, with no solution found yet. It affects me on an iPhone, so I don't know if its just IOS devices or other brands and platforms that are affected as well ?

I'm sure I get all contact info including pictures in my MDI but I'll check when I'm out today. I've got an android phone so maybe that makes a difference and maybe why vw supply the iPhone cable and not an android one. the blue collar cable for iPhone shows pictures doesn't it?

I've tried last night with all different sizes of dab logos but no matter what the pro unit just resizes them to what it needs. finding it strange that an album cover can be 400 and shows full size yet the logos don't (apart from BBC world service which broadcasts it's own)

[Sootchucker]

A worthy effort none the less Chris 

Oh, and it's the Red collar iphone lead that's gives most functionality (videos, pictures etc) not the blue
