I have a Lexus GS300 and it has a DVD Player (which I use to play CDs) - when I bought it I was told it could play DVDs as long I was in park - it plays on the Navigation Screen (I've never tried it). Anyway my question is can I burn Music to a DVD to play in the car? That certainly would have a lot of music on each CD - about 7 times as much as a CD. Just curious if anyone has done this.

So since it's like crikets on this topic - I did try burning a DVD with music on it and so far it has not worked. My best friend John who has the same car said something about a Playlist.....where is Masaki when you need him? :rolleyes: :mecry: <img border="0" alt="[bounce]" title="" src="graemlins/ubbbounce2.gif" />

Todd - sorry, had a busy last couple of days. Don't think it's possible, sorry. You'd need to be able to record a DVD in CD format and more importantly, the player in your Lexus has to be able to play back a DVD in CD format which is certainly not standard. Does your player read MP3s? That would be an easy way to load a lot of music on a single disc.

BTW, Todd - what year is your GS300? A 2006 model? I'm trying to do some research online as to the capabilities of your stereo.

Ah there you are Masaki! Yes it's a 2006 GS300 with a Mark Levinson Sound System with DVD. The small print on the outside of the system says DVD Audio/Video.....so it occured to me that it might somehow play music on the DVDs. I did go to the www.marklevinsonlexus.com site and noted: Media Compatibility CD, CD-R, DTS 5.1 CD, DVD Video, and DVD Audio Discs

What R said. :)
If you have DVD Audio capability on the stereo, then you certainly can do exactly that and get multiple CDs on a DVD. Let us know if it works!
