Anyone out there use Audible? Audible (spoken word) files have never worked in my Phatbox. It works when my DMS is connected to my PC--using PMM-- but not when in the car. When in the car, if I choose a playlist containing a Audible (.aa file) book, it will announce but then skip without playing. I have sent several emails to Phatnoise but the advice makes me wonder if they read the emails before responding. I have most recent firmware (BMW v.9) and have completely wiped the DMS trying to find a solution, to no avail. Anyone else had this issue? Any suggestions would be appreciated.
is this a hacked phatbox and / or DMS?
I never had trouble with Audible files, but make sure that you choose type 4 when you are downloading the files from Audible. That's the only format that the Phatbox supports.

No, not hacked, just a standard issue Phatbox and DMS. And I am aware that I can use type 4 Audible files only. Another note: back about a year ago one of the techs at Phatnoise suggested that I downgrade the BMW firmware to a previous version to see if that would fix the problem. I got involved in other things and didn't try it. Also, I was thinking that I was probably not alone with this issue and maybe new firmware would address this. Alas, still no new firmware. I guess it's time I tried the firmware downgrade route. Thanks for your responses.
Also make sure that you have authorized the dms before you download to your dms or it will not play.
