    USB Music

    Now that I have more carefully read your thread I am somewhat confused by the above statement. S/PDIF output can be transmitted either over RCA Coaxial Cable or optically using either Toslink or Mini-Toslink. So is your conversion to single ended copper using the right interface and therefore...

    USB Music

    I use CyberLink Power2GO11 to convert my audio files to FLAC. The only option available on my software for the sampling rate for FLAC is that it will use the sampling rate of the original source and no higher sampling rate can be chosen. I used a source at 192k and was therefore able to convert...

    "Grasp the Steering Wheel" and Other LCD Warning Messages

    MurlinatoR (or Others): Your last post allows for changing from Active or Standard or LDW. None of these options actually allows the sensitivity to be changed. Previous posts have indicated that a sensitivity adjustment (besides what I described above which is only a 3-way adjustment) is...

    "Grasp the Steering Wheel" and Other LCD Warning Messages

    Thanks! I have forwarded to my dealer (they have only sold 3 Stingers to date so I am quite the lone-wolf here.

    "Grasp the Steering Wheel" and Other LCD Warning Messages

    MurlinatoR: My dealership does not know how to adjust these settings - can you please provide some guidance? Thanks

    USB Music

    I use CyberLink Power2Go 11 which came as part of the bundled CyberLink Power DVD Software package. BTW the 2965 songs (rock, etc with no jazz and classical yet) have an average 23.6 MB file size.

    "Grasp the Steering Wheel" and Other LCD Warning Messages

    My driving with no hands on the wheel was an experiment and, as I stated, I mostly drive with both hands on the wheel and the constant reminders to "Keep My Hands on the Wheel" are a nuisance. Do I ask the dealer to have the sensitivity changed?

    "Grasp the Steering Wheel" and Other LCD Warning Messages

    I believe now that I have failed to convey my message in an accurate manner so I will try to state in as matter-of-fact manner as possible the situation that I have been trying to describe, which BTW I have today conducted several "tests" to verify the information: In in each scenario below I...

    "Grasp the Steering Wheel" and Other LCD Warning Messages

    The fact of the matter is that the warning message (the audible alarm may be on but I usually am playing music off of my USB drive) comes on when I am holding the wheel with both hands going in a straight direction. This happens all the time as I tend to drive with both hands on the wheel with a...

    USB Music

    Similar to Bezerker as I have a 256GB USB 3.0 using FAT32 with all music copied to root drive (according to Multimedia Manual) and organized by Artist/Album/Song using flac. All the options Bezerker discussed are available. When playing a song and wanting to change to a different artist and...

    USB Music

    There is another issue to consider, according to theWindows 10 Inside Out book: If you're formatting a USB flash drive, on the other hand, FAT32 or exFAT is a reasonable choice. Because NTFS is a journaling file system, reading and writing files on NTFS disks involves more input/output than...

    I didn't format the drive - it came that way.

    USB Music

    I don't know how, or why, but the USB Drive is formatted (according to Disk Properties) to FAT32.

    USB Music

    I did not reformat the drive as it came with FAT32. The size does matter regarding "read" (or as the car says "loading") time as it loaded much faster when I first starting loading the drive and it only had 6-7 GB's on it. With 6-7 GB's on it, it loaded instantaneously. Thanks for the reply.

    Engine Speed

    OK, I now understand that SPORT Mode is designed to give you more power but it seems really, really stupid that once you have gotten to speed and engaged the SCC that the car would not go into 8th gear. The outcome of this is to use SPORT mode to get to your desired speed and then change to ECO...

    USB Music

    A quick update to my previous posts with good results. I am using a SanDisk Cruzer 256GB USB drive that I have loaded 70 GB of music using CyberLink Power2Go Ver. 11 to rip to flac file format. Despite what the manual says, and to support Berzerker's previous reply, I leave the USB drive...

    Engine Speed

    While driving on an expressway at 75 mph in Sport Mode I noticed that the engine (2.0T) was running at ~3,000 rpm. I changed driving modes to Comfort Mode and the engine now started running at 2,200 rpm. WTF is this all about? Is there a problem with my car as this makes no sense.

    Idle Stop & Go (ISG) aka Auto Stop

    It has now been 5 weeks since I got my Stinger 2.0T Premium and while I have been extremely happy (some minor glitches like getting the subwoofer to function properly) I have some questions concerning the ISG system on the car. I do not do anything to turn off the system (that I know of) yet I...
