    Hi
    I have connected an external HD 500gb on my radio and it works great except that it doesn't read/recognise FLAC files
    I know that newer cars (ie 2015) can read this type of file.
    Is there anything I can do to make my radio reading them?
    Thanks

    What version of the firmware do you have? Only the latest firmware has the ability to play FLACs.

    All A6s have 2 SD Card slots. On the MMI Plus cars they are behind a flap, on RMC cars there is no flap and one is used for the Navigation Map data.

    You have the RMC system. I suspect to have any chance of playing FLAC files you would need the 3g+ system

    Yep I think so too. To bad, too expensive to move to 3G+.
    It reads all formats but flac si not too much of a big deal.

    I have the 3g+, but no FLAC (K_0770/MY2012), do you have any idea what I have to do to use .flac files?
