IPod Interface Main Menu Issue
I've seen this issue mentioned before between posts of other problems. However, I haven't really seen a solution posted for this particular issue. It always seems to go unanswered.
I have an IPod Classic 4th Gen. It works great when hooked up to the interface in the car.
When I leave the car and come back hours later it resumes play where I left off. That's great. BUT... it is always back at the main menu. This is really irritating when you are wanting to see the other songs on the album. I shouldn't have to go back through all the artists and then re-choose the album again should I?
This is not a battery dying issue. It resumes play so it can't be that.
It is not a firmware issue. It is fully up to date.
Does everyone else have this same issue? Is it just a flaw in the interface software design? Did the developer really not think to check which song is "Now Playing" and then set the default artist and album in the list?
Am I just being too picky? I don't think so. It seems like the interface works pretty much just like an IPod in most other ways.
Any reasonable feedback is appreciated.

That's the way the interface works. It's insanely annoying. You don't even have to turn the car off. Try just switching to radio and back....same thing. There is no way around it unfortunately.

Well I'm glad that I'm not the only one who finds it annoying. Maybe if it didn't take so damn long to scroll through artists etc. I wouldn't hate it so much.

It looks like we just have a case of poorly written software.
