I would like one of my steering wheel controls to control the voice activation feature!!! I mean, I can control the volume, change from sat to HDD, change stations, tracks etc. from the steering wheel. But I can't activate the voice control from a steering wheel mounted control. It drives me nuts! It would be great if for instance I could hold down the music note button for 2 seconds and it would activate the voice feature, or just make it so that the music note button activates the voice command and not switch between cd/hdd/sat etc. and we could just as easily push it and then say "hard drive." That would be great. Then we wouldn't have to reach over to the radio to activate the voice feature every time.

 

Futil, I have a request that I thought others would like also.

It would be nice to be able to turn off or on individual buttons on the navigation screen. I don't use many of them or a couple of them at all. It would be nice to be able to have only the ones you want on the screen so if you need or want you can see more of the map but still have a couple buttons you use. Example to be able to have only the north arrow, zoom, and not the trail button or 3or2D button. Others may want to choose which ones they want and not other ones. My handheld GPS's have this feature and my fishfinder/gps also has it. I hope it wouldn't be too hard for HB to do this.

Again thanks for the help and all the work here.

Okay, here's another ambitious idea... (something that shouldnt come until the more necessary changes are done)... Expand on the bluetooth connectivity. Right now, the unit acts only as a headset that the phone pairs with. Granted, this will take a bit of work and development like some of my other thoughts, but a lot of phones (most now) have internet access, and have the ability to connect to a laptop via bluetooth to provide internet access to that laptop. If this functionality were supported on the MyGig, we could have internet access on the MyGig to give it another source to lookup businesses for NAV. Could also be used for more up to date GraceNotes or CDDB while connected.

 

This afternoon I was experimenting with whether the Gracenotes database would recognize names of songs that I converted to MP3, instead of "track01.WMA" or whatever that is on some of my albums that I uploaded from CD. It didn't but now I havea 101MB duplicate album of the same music in a different format on my HDD.

So far I haven't found a way to delete just one album or playlist from the HDD; it just gives me the option to delete them all. The option to delete individual playlists and albums would be a welcome enhancement if it's not there already and I just haven't found it yet.

 

Well that went quickly, I compiled all the requests up to this point and will submit them to Harman Becker.I'll wait till we build up another 3 pages then send the next batch in.

I am going to send the list to someone I know cares about the product enough to consider each option and not to someone Idon't know who will likely lose the list in their email.. You all know whothat's going to be

Thank you all for your suggestions.. Hopefully we will see some welcomed changes in the future.

 

I know that this may be too late for your request going in. What about being able to have visualizations during music playback (kind of like a "action screensaver") like in Windows Media Player (Ihave had my Avenger for a week so I don't know if it can do this)?Also, it would be nice if they could split the equalizer into more than three channels to be able to customize the sound better.

 

Please... what he said!!! I have an 09 Ram and the feature is still not there.

 

My additions to the MyGig Wishlist:

1. Improved ability to manage Playlists (onboard)
2. Improved ability to "scroll" lists (20-30GB makes for VERY long lists when only 7 entries per "page"; singular "previous/next page" buttons are inefficient - especially once you reach the point of a list "page 1 of 48" you'll forget what you were looking for before you reach the page it is on)
3. Improved Artist List Displays (once within selected Artist, song list doesn't include Album Name; cannot differentiate song on multiple albums - studio vs live vs greatest hits)
4. Improved Album List Displays (list Artist along with Album Title; with large music libraries you can forget "who did which)
5. Provide ability to output a Summary of Contents to a USB (in addition/lieu of backup ability; provide ability for someone to write PC software to support/manage large MyGig libraries)
