I have Burmeister sound system.
I guess none of the android big screen can tuned the burmeister sound ?
Because when i am on a long drive I select "pure sound" which is much better to avoid headach.
Otherwise i select "live music".
I often switched

 

I suppose those are just EQ presets. And if that's the case, with a bit of tinkering, you could replicate the settings with the Android units.

Otherwise, for as long as you're able to feed a digital signal to the Burmester amp, I suspect you should be good.

 

Hi all,
really discovering this amazing forum. I'm owner of Macan S 2017 and since 2 weeks I decided to install the 12.3 screen as you can see in the attached picture (really no idea on the brand as its managed directly and installed in a garage). However, I'm facing some issues : 1/ the magic button cant manage media when CarPlay is used (change the track for example) 2/ the second big issue is when Carplay is used, connexion is lost suddenly and I'm facing this at least 5 times per day. 3/ the last issue is the option to display traffic recognition is lost and no more available since installation of this new screen. So I want please your feedback if there is any solutions for these issues and big thanks to this Community

 

Did you see my video on this? Joker button configuration….

Finally, I figured it out! I modified the Diamond Button SW Control for my FYT 12.3 Android unit

 

The magic button will not work unfortunately. I have never had the disconnect issue so I cant answer on that, do you have the issue only using Bluetooth or also wired?. There is no way to get the traffic info to work that i know of .

 

Thank you I will try the solution proposed by @Santirx . However, the disconnect issue becomes a real problem so I dont know please whether its the soft or real issue with the screen. Any help on this please? again thanks and sorry as I'm really not expert

 

The BT and WIFI antennas ARE the very small wires that are on one of the back connectors.....they are both there ? Please post pictures of your wiring kit, otr back of unit.

 

I'm debating one of the 12.3" replacement units vs. Mr12volt interface.... Would like to hear your thought's on both options....

My main goal is being able to optimize sound quality while integrating CarPlay flexibility in my PCM3.1 based Macan.

Thanks

 

Digital out from this 12.3" unit should sound the same as digital out from PCM 3.1 or Mr12Volt. It's just ones and zeroes if it stays fully digital until it gest to the Bose (or whatever) amp. The key is getting an optical to MOST converter box instead of the analog to MOST converter that's included with most of the Android units.

 

Audison Bit, same as Helix SDMI 25, are devices that will convert MOST25 to SPDIF so that you can install an aftermarket amplifier.

For an Android unit, you need either an analog to MOST25 or SPDIF to MOST25 converter box like @draw stated. All these Android units come with these boxes, albeit, many are very bad quality.

Mr12Volt has a direct connection to MOST25.

 

The amplifier I plan to use does have an SPDIF input direct to the DSP input stage.

 

Oh, so you plan on replacing OEM amplifier. Thats good. I missed that. Then, you can go from Android unit directly to amplifier using SPDIF. I routed a long SPDIF wire from the unit to my aftermarket amplifier, bypassing MOST altogether.

But if you don’t want to do that, then you need a SPDIF or Analog to MOST converter in the unit, and then the Audison bit on the amplifier side.

Good luck!

 

I should’ve said Android Unit. I connected SPDIF directly from Android unit to my aftermarket amplifier.

 

Gotcha...
If I use the Mr12volt unit, I assume I'll need to grab the MOST signal at the point where it enters the OEM amplifier... Insert the MOST interface, then out from there to to the new amplifier via SPDIF.

 

OR.... just pick up one of the 12.3" units

 

Has anyone tried one of The Fitting Bay units out of AUS? They say they stock LHD models, and even though they’re more expensive than the AliExpress models - if they’ve sorted the software/hardware to not lose functionality (gps antenna connector, steering wheels controls, etc - or are those issues that are only still present on the dual screen models?) - I might be game. Now if they’ve just slapped a fitting bay sticker on… nope, not at that price.

 

All these Android units are the same. The fitting bay seems to be a reseller, but these are all manufactured in China, probably by same manufacturer. So, unless the fitting bay has a programmer making custom software/firmware for both the unit and canbus decoder, my guess is that you will be getting the same unit that are sold in Ali… with all same defects, quirks and functionality.

 

I know to many this mod is cool. I get it. But living in the Houston area, frankly I don’t have the luxury of taking my eyes off the road and checking everything being displayed. And too many drivers with too many distractions.
