Default music capabilities?

In an 04+ Ultra LS 430, can we play DVD Audio discs? What about MP3 or .ogg files? Is the CD player just a CD player or is it also a DVD player? Can it be changed to a DVD player easily?

What are the music capabilities of the high dollar ML system regarding types of files?

Thanks.

It can play MP3's burned to a disc but will not display the file info, no it will not play DVD-A or DVD's. You will need lockpick to convert it to an DVD player.

No, it does not. Unless you convert it to a redbook CD audio disc. I've tried, and it doesn't, sorry.

Get a vaistech and an Ipod!

As mentioned above, the LS does not play Mp3's or DVD Music CD's.

However, the ML system is far superior then any other stock system i've heard in clarity. You start to hear parts of the song you never heard before.

Wish it would have the same kick as the ML in my GS.
