Radio Favorite Button Scroll Past 5?


Recommended Posts

Posted

In the 2016 8 inch display with CarPlay, there are 5 favorite buttons along the bottom of the screen. it highlights which station you currently are listening too. When you go to favorites 6 to 10 or 11 to 15 or so on with the steering wheel button, it doesn't scroll the favorites on the bottom of the radio screen, it just stays on favorites 1 to 5 unless you swipe the favorites manually

 

Is there an option to get it to "follow" you and slide the favorites groups to show the group you are listening too? i couldn't find a setting in the menu.

 

Thanks

I think you can change the number of favorites from the settings (gear symbol) on the home page. Here is something from my 2015 owner's manual. I don't know if it works the same way on a 2016.

 

Number of Favorites Shown:

Select Auto and the system will

automatically adjust the number of

favorite pages when favorites are

added and removed, or select a

number from 5–25 to manually

adjust the number of favorites

shown.

I tried the auto setting but it doesn't scroll the presets once you get past the first five. Once sirius Xm runs out I won't have so many presets to worry about

If you swipe up from under the tune button, it will show more favorites on the screen. Just swipe down when done. The only bad thing is it covers up the station/song info.

There is no way for it to auto scroll. It's not meant to show you what preset you are on, it's another form of navigating presents. It just so happens that if your screen is on the page with a station you navigate / change to (via steering wheel preset or just manually tuning) it will highlight said station.

X2......if I have to scroll through more than five stations, I'd sooner go to the 50 albums on the flash drive.

Ok thanks. Our Subaru scrolls through the preset groups when u change channel with steering wheel so figured gm would to. I tried the swipe up to show them all but as mentioned it covers up song info. Oh well. Thanks

You can also swipe left or right on the presets on the bottom of the screen to show the next group of presents. That way you can still see the song info.

When using the steering wheel favorites control mine always displays the correct section of the favorites list on the dic display. (not the radio display)

 

 

I'd also like to see the list on the main display auto scroll as well.
