Yep, took about 40 minutes and worked flawlessly.



Rich, when I started the car again tonight, the MDI (Ipod) carried on exactly where I had left off (about 2/3's of the way through the track I was listening to at lunchtime). To be fair I haven't tried it with the HDD files or the SD card but I will over the next couple of days.

Also noticed that before the upgrade, the RNS screen used to call the MDI button "Media IN", whereas now it's called just "MDI". Works perfectly though.

Definatley no Resenberg syndrome either (with my equipment at least)

Here's hoping that the battery issues are indeed sorted, guess I'll find out over the weekend  :surprised:

Right then a quick update on the 1300 firmware after having a play around with it last night.

Changed

Speed displays operational on the Nav screen (i.e it tells you the max speed for the road you are travelling on).
Ability to set blocked roads on the Navi
Quicker response time to touchscreen presses.
If clock is set to display (in setup menu), then with the ignition on and the RNS switched off, it will display the time.
Ability (on my unit anyway) to use 16GB SDHC cards (didn't have anything bigger)
"MEDIA IN" button on RNS now changed to "MDI"
Showing the HDD capacity now shows a rather nice Pie Chart rather than the single coloured line from before.

Not changed

Still only 4 digit postcode I'm afraid  :confused:
No issues that I can see with MP3 files not starting where left off. tried it with MDI, HDD and SD card and they all work fine.
No Resenberg Syndrome. Picked up my position immediately.
Start-up time not changed (i.e. a tad slow) but as mentioned, when booted, touch screen operation does seem faster (although this could be a placebo effect ?).
So far (at least - no issues with battery drain, although to be fair the car was only left overnight. However upon starting this morning, I did get the "Welcome to VW Navigation" boot screen, which seems to indicate to me that the unit had fully shut down. Took about 15-20 Seconds to fully boot up (i. e until the map screen could be displayed and the "system starting" colourful screen disappeared.

Also, as mentioned, both the music files on the Navi unit and the Maps, plus all settings (Radio presets, bass, treble settings, and colour scheme) were unaffected by the firmware upgrade.

If I find anything more, I'll post up.

Cheers

Andrew

Postcode's is NOT a firmware issue. It's a mapping issue.

VAG Have to license the 7 Digit functionality and then incorporate that into the mapping. There has been talk for a while now about 7 Digit postcode entry but unless it appears with V7 maps then we will just have to wait until VAG license it :happy2:

Good to see though that 1300 is pretty much the same as the 272X & 276X firmwares :happy2:

Just been reading your post on the RNS bluetooth thread, will let you know how compatible the new firmware is with the Skoda unit before you splash out on a new setup, I also have the voice control loom in place so I will check if that will work with the updated firmware, as that could be a big bonus especially if it lets me make and answer calls.  Then you dont need a button  :laugh:

that's very strange. I've left mine for 5 days whilst I was away on business, and it started first time on my return. No labouring, just fired instantly and started straight away .
