You the man!

Looks like the 5414 hasn't finished yet!
 
Downloaded the 5411 file for the RHR last night and burned the ISO image to a DVD-R this morning. While driving to work, I updated the Gracenotes software. No problems. This update is a little different from the past ones in that it is one large ISO file, not a folder of 17 files. I have had 100% success rate with burning an ISO image to a DVD-R at the slowest speed possible (2X worked fine). I play a lot of Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin, so I am not sure how this update will affect me.

Thanks *sox*
 
SOX posted a scary message in the other thread to not update GraceNotes via USB...apparently it can brick the radio in some circumstances. Mine went fine...but I did ask him for more of an explanation of the risk and reason.

yes, some guys here in the USA with the RHR and some one in Europe with the RHW, have update the gracenotes with USB and have riceved a serrius error and then you have no chance to resolve this problem!........only change the unit.

I have repair some unit with serrius error on the application software, this are possible, but with the gracenotes error no.

betther make no risk and update with DVD.
 
Like everyone else, I too am thankful for the efforts of SOX. He's a hero to all of us.

I am sure the readers of this post are, like me, disappointed with how incomplete the Gracenotes album art database is. I loaded v5411 onto my 730N RHR. There was some improvements but I still have about 20% of my collection not showing the proper album art. Worst of all, some art that was correct in v4118 is now wrong or missing in v5411.

How can we as end users correct this situation? Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep/Ram would do well to ask us how the database could be improved. Doesn't it make sense that if album art is missing in the database that it should default to the song's ID3 tag?

Please let me know I am not the lone voice out here.
 
New Here...I have a 2012 RHR Navigation system....I wanted to update it because it always freezes and crashes. Do I have to do each upgrade at a time or can I skip to the newest one? Also, I can't get the system to read the DVD or the Flashdrive...any help would be awesome!

Thanks,

Casey

you must/ can only updating the gracenotes to 5411
 
Just updated my RHR radio to gracenotes 5411 and then updated radio system to 2.184. I unzipped the ISO files from SOX site and copied to USB and installed both without any problems. Guess I was lucky with USB as I just read about the USB risk that is avoided by burning to a DVD. I noticed some improvements with album covers now existing that were missing in prior version 4118. Still won't be satisfied until My Alan Parsons Project gracenotes album cover stops showing a smiling Michael Jackson at about age 13. Maybe next time. System 2.184 seems to work fine. I have a Win Phone 8 blue tooth device that was having issues with the prior version 2.136 locking up that is working fine now. However time will tell as Win Phone 8 as published by MgGiG Chrysler is not compatible with RHR radios for music and album art. Thank you SOX. You da man !

New system version still does not support Win Phone 8 for music. When installed first time it works perfectly, but now the sound is always disabled when I connect to music. If I unpair the device, then the music comes back on. Bluetooth phone always works fine, but music is still not supported on Win Phone 8. I think that I'll try to go back to previous system version. Separate gracenotes update has been great. Noticably more album art, but still a ways to go.
