Default switching mp3 folders

Does anyone know how to select the next MP3 folder while driving? If I hold down the next track button on the steering wheel the system will switch to the next CD. I want it to stay on the same CD but go to the next folder.

you have to do the DVD mod that enable you play DVD while moving to be able to change MP3 folder while driving.

You can't do it with the steering wheel controls but you can change while driving while holding the I think the seek or tuner button by the radio. If you look close it says folder next to the button.

on the bottom right corner of the nav youll see the up and down arrow for folder.

edit: also the track change buttons on the steering wheel changes to the next and previous folders for me when im on the first or last track of a folder.

duh! you're actually changing tracks, not folders, which happen to be in the prev/next folder.
