Switching through your favorite channels

[xpitxbullx]

I just realized that a long push left or right on the left scroll wheel will jump to your next or previous favorite stations. I though I could only go to next or previous song with a quick press. Now I know.

That used to work but it's broken for me on the newer firmware. 32.x and higher. Now it either does nothing or freezes the UI!

I discovered that a long push left/right changed stations, but it only switched back to FM radio (if I was on streaming). And even then, only to the most recent station I had (I have two favorite FM stations).

I'm on 2018.32.2

I’m on 32.2 also. I have about 10 Slacker favorite stations and 5 FM stations. Jumps through all of them.

Ah interesting, if it's just me I'll try re-adding favorites, maybe one of them is breaking things.

Yep 32.2 broke it. I contacted Tesla about the bug and they said they couldn't reproduce it on their end, so if you're having the same problem, please report it to them via the website so they know it's happening to other people. It was like they wouldn't believe me until I made a video showing how it was broken. Something is weird with the way the media player handles FM station favorites, because it will work normally if you don't have any FM favorites. You can get it to temporarily work again by removing and re-adding all your favorites, FM stations last. However, if you reset the screen manually, it breaks it again. Very frustrating. Not fixed on 34.1 either. I also have this new bug where the Slacker favorites will disappear every single time the car sleeps, which is annoying to no end.

I reported it through the website's "Ask a Question" page a couple weeks back but no response... I don't have any FM stations favorited, only Slacker stuff, but mine freezes randomly when trying to do "long press" on the steering wheel to cycle favorites, and requires a screen reset to unstick the UI. Really annoying since I used that feature all the time.
