I'm working on an iPod integration project and I need to know if the CDR-220 is capable of text display. Can the CD changer display track and CD names if it's encoded on the CD?

TIA

mine will display radio station information if they transmit it, including the song they would currently be playing. so I know that the radio is capable of displaying text, but unsure if it could actually pick up encoded information from a CD.

The CD player built into the CDR-220 doesn't show this info, so I'm going to go out on a limb here and say the CD changer doesn't either. However, some FM modulaters have RTF, so it will display what it playing on the iPod just like a radio station would. Unfortunately, on my Belkin this only works when I'm sending the iPod over the air through the FM modulater, I don't get anything when I use my AUX line-in.

Thanks for the responses guys. This isn't the info I need yet however. I need to know if text info can be sent from a CD changer or other Unilink device. Anybody with a CD changer know?

Sorry Loren, just wanted this at the top and to clarify the question. Plus, this project needs to be complete today, so it's going without text display for now. And Becker is non responsive.

Thanks

No, CD changer does not have the built-in ability to display track info.

You can try calling Becker directly, but I assure you, they will be far less than helpful.

I have quite a bit of experience in the venture that you're pursuing.

Let me know if you have any more questions.
