I notice when HD radio is turned on, the song titles no longer appear in the info box in the upper right corner...it just shows the station wupith HD after it. How can I get both HD radio and the titles to show? I didn't even noticed a difference in quality with HD on.
I get song titles with HD radio. I find it depends on how close you are to the signal. Based on this, I assume HD has a smaller footprint than regular FM. At some point when I get closer to the city, the song titles are there.
The OP was asking about the titles on the top right hand corner of the main FM page. I only show the song title scrolling when I do not have an HD station or signal.
I've never had album art from radio...and it's not like I live out in the stick somewhere so the reception should be strong enough. BTW, I've never had album art from bluetooth either. I only get it from Pandora or USB.
Do you have to get into settings to turn these on? On FM, I don't get anything but a square with lines. I do get the song titles but nothing else. Have a 2012 435xi BTW.
Its in the manual, but essentially:
Press the Radio button in front of the iDrive controller
Select FM
Press the Options button behind the iDrive controller
Check the HD Radio Reception box.
If you want artist/title/album art to display, check the RDS box as well, although this is subject to the station broadcasting this information.
