How does the MTF index iPod mp3's?

[methodfilter]

Just ordered my 2011 Edge Sport and have a quick question about the indexing of mp3's. Currently I'm driving a 2010 GMC Terrain with my old iPod Touch connected. I would prefer to use my bigger (but older) iPod Classic as it holds more music. The reason I couldn't is the Terrain is very odd in its indexing. Basically on the Classic if I choose the 'Arist' category it just gives me an alphabetical list of all the songs I have by that artist, no option to choose 'Album' after 'Artist'. So if I pick 'Album' first, I then have to remember the name of the album im looking for as it doesn't break it down by 'Artist' anymore. Then the issue is the songs are displayed in alphabetical order rather than by track number.

 

Now that issue is fixed when using an iPod Touch in that it will display 'Album' track's in track order, not alpha order. BUT I still have to go into 'Album', figure out the Album name and then go from there.

 

What i'm hoping is that on the MyFord Touch, I can just pick, for example, 'Pearl Jam' and then 'Ten' and then play the album in track order. Is that how it works? I hate having to search for albums by name rather than artist.

 

Thanks!

I have a2011 MKX but yes you can.

In short you can browse by artist then once you click the artist you want

It will list the multiple albums if you have more than one.

 

If you have a lot of music it's very slow that way.

 

The voice commands work amazing. Just click it and say play album "whatever"

And you are all set.

Thanks! Helps a lot. The Terrain's pretty slow too so i probably wouldn't notice much
