a reagular DVd is workes, Cd with mp3/video is compatible, But why not a DVD disc with Mp3 burned on it?
Is there any way to fix that ? any dvd kinds wich work ? Hate burning Cds.. in all my other cars i use DVD discs with burned mp3s on it . and they work fine
But not in my IS250 2009

only fix is to get the ipod integration kit (got mine for 99 on ebay) and an used 30GB ipod (50 dollar off craiglist).

30GB of instant music, no disc swapping required.

Hey I had the same problem too. Was wondering why my mp3's were not running from the dvd's I burnt. Anyways now I know I can't.

Does anyone know how to find if the DVD players on our Mark Levinson are PAL or NTSC compatible ?

Well the ones sold in North America are certainly NTSC compatible, since that's the format of the discs available in the United States and Canada. I don't know that anyone has been able to try a PAL disc, since the ML DVD players sold in North America are region locked to region 1.

Ok found out by writing a DVD in PAL, so it's safe to say the car's sold in Asia are PAL compatible.
