From what ive read there doesnt sound like much hope for Applink on MyFordTouch. That being said if they'd give us a way to turn off auto-indexing it would solve half of my annoyances. It seems like some days it wants to re-index my usb stick 2 or 3 times, even though the stick hasnt been removed in a month.
Then there are some albums i just cannot get to with voice commands. I have several albums called Anthology, forget about it. I have to browse manually for them. The Black Crowes Amorica is equally hard to get to. I have other ones that act the same. The only other way to get there is a manual browse which is hard to do on the road. Whats a real treat is when you've browsed to an album, shut off the car, then when you get back in it re-indexes and the 19 songs on the album are cut down to the one you were listening to last.You have to wait for it to re-index and then browse back to that album, or forget about it and listen to XM.
This isnt my first car media player or one that uses voice commands. I have tried the same cadence and speed i've used when setting up medical voice recognition systems. Tried talking to it like my android phone. I tried playing a song the other day, I tried 4 times and got 4 different responses and none of them were right. The last time it changed to a hispanic XM channel.
I resort to playing all on shuffle and hitting Next and awful lot. Either that, or i play the artist i am looking for a song or album from and hit next a lot.
The really sad part is that after my upgrades it sounds wonderful. I put in JL Audio components, an Audison sound processor, a Polk 5 channel amp and a Sundown Audio sub. I havent gotten the Audison all dialed in yet and it still sounds great. Now if i could just listen to what i am wanting to instead of just swearing at it and switching to XM.
