| I'm looking for ways to playback the DVD and include the front NAV screen in the playback. I get audio through the front system by pressing the Media button, but the Video does not appear. On our Toyota Sienna, I could get this by putting on the Emergency Brake while parked. It may seem insignificant, but it is nice to see what the kids are watching when I'm waiting for the wife to run a quick errand. Thanks for any feedback or ideas. | |
I finally went with the Dice iPod Integration. The cost was $159 and it works as advertised. In the end, it appears this is the only solution if you have the DVD NAV.

Hello! I don't have CX-9 yet, but I intend to buy one pretty soon. However I still have some reservations. One of them is audio system. Unfortunately Mazda bundles up advanced audio option (Bose) with either a moonroof or a DVD entertainment system. I don't want either of them.  I would prefer them to bundle it with power rear hatch, but there is little I can do about it. So my questions are: 1) How good or bad is a 6-speaker standard audio system (with a single CD)? 2) Does anybody have any experience with aftermarket audio systems? Thank you in advance!

Like you I didn't want the nav or moonroof so I went with the standard radio. I miss not having the the 6-CD changer and the power seems lacking...just not the umph you want. I'm living with it but am very disappointed in the entire audio set-up: like losing my ipod plug-in capabilities when I had Sirius installed. You can read other postings on the joke they call an audio system. Choose another car or wait for the 09 for some improvement. You'll save on gas too....mine is a real gas slut; just mocks me at the pump.. One tank I got 13mpg doing just city driving. Good shopping!

I have Moonroof w/ Bose and also Nav. The instruction manual says the CD Name, Artist name and Track Name will be displayed on the screen as long as each character is represented by one byte. I have inserted 5 commercial CD's and none of this infformation is displayed. Does this feature only work in certain country's? (I'm in the USA). If it should work here does anyone out there know how to nake it work?

Replying to: epicard (Apr 06, 2008 9:07 pm) I have moonroof and Assist package (therefore, upgraded Bose stereo). I can see CD text on some of my CDs, but not all. I am not sure about the "standard CD" system, but my Toyota Prius' CD player is similar (both are Bose systems). Maybe Bose does have issue supporting some CD-text, but not all. For instance, it works with Celine Dion's Taking Chances. Try it.
