Has anyone managed to get the Ampera to recognise a playlist which has been burned to cd with its mp3 files, from iTunes? The car seems to load all the songs, knows about albums, artists etc, but says no playlists present - even though I can see the playlist XML file of the cd. Playlists are recognised fine when an iPod or iphone is connected to the USB socket of the car...so why won't it recognise playlists burned to cd? Just another of the annoying idiosyncrasies of the infotainment system? (I think I know the answer....)

You say XML file.

Is the car expecting the .m3u format?

I think it may be David, yes. After I wrote the initial post a while back, I did a little more researching on the gm-volt forum and concluded that I'd probably have to find a way of building an m3u playlist if I wanted it to work. I haven't bothered yet, as I've taken to plugging the iPhone in much of the time.
