In the US it works but only if you have the USB cable in use. Via BT it won't show the art.

 

Hi Bruno, Thanks, Ive tried the USB cable without bluetooth. No album art just track info.

 

Don't know if this will help you or not but:

I put a bunch of my favorite music onto a USB memory stick. Works just fine..but I only have album art displayed from songs that were copied from my iTunes collection...and the music has to be mp3 format..the mp4 stuff doesn't play. I am in the USA so maybe this will not do you any good.. hope it does!

 

I didn't even know it did this!!

I Have the Highlander here in Australia which is the equivalent of the UK Premium SE and i've used both cables and only get track info.

PS are you using an iPod and if so can you stream audio via bluetooth? i can only do it from iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad don't work.

Where are you in the UK?

 

That's the reason why you're only "generally satisfied?" you're one tough cookie!

 

Hi Deano, How you going mate! (ex Aussie now living in Scotland)

Yes the nav system is supposed to show album art from your ipod or iphone if connected with a single USB cable, or so a salesman told me prior to purchase. I will speak with Hyundai UK to confirm but it dosnt look good at this stage. Just annoys me that the system is more than capable of showing album art including videos and tv channels via iphone apps but for some reason its been programmed not to do so here in the UK and OZ by the sound of it.

As I said I am very pleased with the car but when you pay £35000 UK equiv to $51000 AUD or $53000 US, you expect all of these features to work!

I bought a creamy white SE with lovely big 19 inch black chrome mags!

Cheers

 

You're the opposite from me, I'm a Scotsman living in Oz, been here in Perth for 5 years but originally from Aberdeen.

Ps $56,900 here but got mine for $53,500 and we still don't get all the fruit on the Highlander that you get on the Premium SE

 

Are there any UK owners of the latest model Santa Fe on this forum?

 

There won't be many because deliveries were stopped altogether for months and even now is on restricted supply, ie 1500 pa compared to previous sales of 4,000 / year.

The user gazza!!! has one.

 

Thanks RT. and others, looks like I may have to wait until a few more new UK/OZ Santa owners appear when the supplies of the car improve.

 

Don't hold your breath

You didn't say where in Scotland you are

Oh and according to my manual I should be able to play video from my iPod/iPhone to the screen, damned if I can get that to work either

 

Near the Arbroath smokies on the east coast.

Dealer and Hyundai UK about as usefull as a chocolate fireguard, the video feature is also in my handbook but i cant access aux, I've even got into the dealer reset/adjust mode in the satnav where you can adjust options but its all in code. Had hoped our US cousins could have helped as it seems they can access the video/ album art feature.

I am able to stream Internet (OZ) radio from my iPhone which is useful

 

Ah ok, bit of a culture shock moving from Oz to Arbroath lol!

Did you get your car from Dundee or Aberdeen?

Ps lovely and sunny in Perth today in case you're interested

Oh and i can better you Oz radio stream, i had a Skype call over 3G with my mate in Aberdeen last week via bluetooth while driving down the freeway......... my iphone is jailbroken though, not sure if it works with non jailbroken devices

 

Another brit in Aus with a Highlander! No, my cover art doesn't work either but I can skype via bluetooth on a non jailbroken iPhone

 

I got video to work!

Firstly you will need a cable with 3.5mm jack at one end and 3 female rca video at the other, I got mine from eBay as below.

Then you'll need the iPod composite cable exactly as below, you only need the one with 3 x male rca's as below, no need for the 5 rca one, Aussie guys I got mine from Dick Smith for $32

Connect the 2 together, Plug the 3.5mm jack into the Aux input on your SF, connect the other end to your iPod or iPhone and voila!

 

I got video to work!

wow for real? Can anyone confirm if it works in USDM Santa Fe?? As far as I know there is no video feature in ours

I've even got into the dealer reset/adjust mode in the satnav where you can adjust options but its all in code. Had hoped our US cousins could have helped as it seems they can access the video/ album art feature.

Mind sharing a way to get into the reset/adjust mode?

 

Well done Deano, is tha 'Taggart' on the screen?

Just for the guys wanting to get into dealer mode on the nav then this is now you do it

If you press and hold the settings button it'll pop up with a detailed description of software, firmware, navigation versions etc.
Once you're on that screen, if you press the centre of the screen, just below the right side of the hyundainav URL and you hold for ten seconds it'll put it into test mode. If you enter the code 123456 a whole lot of stuff detailing the nav unit will pop up.

 

Has anyone had this work on a USA version of the Santa Fe? I hold SETUP/Settings button forever and nothing happens.

 

On the video thing as soon as you select any gear or disengage the park brake video shuts down.

I have a few guys in the know that might be able to hack this, i had it done on my previous car (Holden Commodore) so it is doable.......... i hope!

 

The cable I had for this is actually for an older Mac, not a 30-pin. I'm going to try to find a friend with one.

 

Cable acquired. I'll try this when I get home from work later!

 

Do you have the other cable too?

Doesn't work if you have USB plugged in

 

I just tried the video setup (I had all cables on hand) and it didn't work on my US version of the SF. I think we need to get into dealer mode on the USA version and enable video somehow first. I think it's all locked-down from the factory.

 

Hi Deano, I got the leads as per your post but it dosnt work?? Only sound I have an iphone 5 with the adapter but no luck.

Which iphone model do you have mate.

 

I have had my new generation sante fe premium se for two weeks now. No art work showing in mine either. Didn't ever know it was possible though.
