BMW 7 Owners & Service Manuals

BMW 7 Series: CD/Multimedia

In terms of their functionality, the CD/DVD, external devices and sound submenus located under CD/Multimedia are similarly configured as the iDrive "Entertainment" menu of the CCC.

This training material mainly deals with the Music collection selection menu. The other selection menus are described in detail in the Vehicle Owner's Manual.

With the music collection, it is possible to store music data within the CIC on an 80GB hard disk. A total of 12 GB is reserved for the music collection, corresponding to about 3700 music tracks.

A music search function has been implemented, which searches for information (metadata) on the individual music tracks (artist, album, etc.).

A music track database (Gracenote) provides further information to the music track (metadata). This takes place as a supplementary function to the conversion process from Digital Audio CD to a WMA file. A storage space of 4 GB is reserved for this purpose on the CIC-internal hard disk.

Storing Music Data on the HDD

The music collection is stored in a partition on the internal hard disk drive (HDD) of the CIC. This device makes it possible to store a large selection of music data in the vehicle, while allowing the option to retrieve it when necessary.

Up to 12GB of the total 80 GB hard drive is set aside for the music collection.

The following three options can be used to store music data on the hard disk:

  • Rip function from Compact Disk Audio format
  • Copying data via the CD/DVD drive
  • Copying data from the USB
