I'm not sure if this is relevant, but my car (bought 6/2/12) shows album art for all of the songs I've uploaded to the jukebox via SD card. I haven't bought an IPOD yet or tested via the connector (I wish it had just come with a regular USB cable for my galaxy nexus.. is there one available?)

Default Anyone using the red grommet iPod cable for album art on mmi?

I have the red grommet cable but an older iPod, pre iPod touch. It does have album art on it but it won't show up on the mmi screen. I just bought a new 64gb iPod touch. Will this solve my problem?

I think you can stream your music via Bluetooth can't you? I know for iPhone you can.

So just got denied twice by Audi USA they said there is no available software update. I know there is no scheduled update, but why is it physically not possible. Audi tired to decried i that way. That my car is uniquely capable of it's software version. I wanted to know specifically what supposedly makes it impossible but was not told at the time

Jose, which dealer did you go through? I bought the red cable, can't get album art to work, and assume I need a software update. About to schedule my 5,000 mile service with Pacific Audi and going to request the update.

I'm waiting for my refurbished 64gb ipod touch to arrive from apple. hoping it works, but doubting it now. I did get the dealer to give me a red cable, so I saved a little there. I'll try for the software upgrade but not holding out too much hope.
