Media and Audio
Overview
Audio Settings
Touch the Media Player application to listen to Internet radio, stream music or podcasts (if available), or play audio files from a Bluetooth or USB-connected device. You can play FM, and SiriusXM satellite (if equipped) radio.
Achieve the sound you want by adjusting the fade (front/rear) and balance (left/right), or by customizing the strength of sound frequencies. Press the equalizer icon on the top right corner of the Media Player to access audio settings.
Available source content displays across the top of Media Player: Radio, Streaming, TuneIn, and Phone. An additional source, USB, displays when you insert a flash drive into a USB connection (see USB Connections on page 134). You can browse the content available on Media Player by touching a source, or you can use Search to find specific content (see Searching within Media Player on page 131). The Now Playing view, which displays at the bottom of Media Player, enables you to control what's currently playing (for example, pausing/playing, skipping to the next track/ station, etc.). You can also use the Now Playing view to mark what's playing as a favorite (see Favorites and Recent on page 133), and access recently played and favorite stations, music, and podcasts. The Now Playing view displays regardless of the source (Radio, Streaming, TuneIn, Phone, and USB) you select in Media Player. You can maximize and minimize the Now Playing view simply by touching it.
Volume Control To adjust Media Player's volume, roll the scroll wheel on the left side of the steering wheel up or down. To mute the volume, press the left scroll wheel. The scroll wheel adjusts the volume for media, navigation instructions, or phone calls, based on what is currently being heard through the speakers. If you're listening to a song, audio file, or podcast, and you receive a phone call or Model X relays a step in Trip Planner's turnby-turn directions through the speakers, the song, audio file, or podcast is muted temporarily. Note: Pressing the left scroll wheel during a phone call mutes both the sound and your microphone.
Using the Touchscreen
Adjust fade and balance on the left side of the screen by positioning the center circle of the cross bars to the location in Model X where you want to focus the sound. Adjust any of the five frequency bands (Bass, Bass/Mid, Mid, Mid/Treble, and Treble) on the right side of the screen by dragging the corresponding slider up or down on the decibel (dB) bar. If equipped, touch the Dolby check box to enable Dolby Surround.
Searching within Media Player Search is available throughout Media Player. You can search across all content categories, or you can limit your search to a particular category. Search results include the following content: • • •
TuneIn Streaming Personal Radio USB content
To search, touch anywhere in Media Player's search bar and enter the name of the song, album, artist, podcast, playlist, or station you want to search for. Select a filter to narrow the scope of your search, or leave it at its default setting to include top results from all categories. Note: You can also search hands-free using voice commands (see Using Voice Commands on page 46). If you are using TuneIn, you can browse content by category from the Browse area of the TuneIn source. You can browse content by location (Africa, Asia, North America, and so on), by local radio, by talk radio, by favorites, and other categories. To return from browsing or to select another category to browse, simply touch TuneIn at the top of Media Player.
