Pioneer AVIC-N2 Question: How to upload your own pics as wallpaper?

I just got AVIC-N2 a couple of days ago, and I'm having problem uploading
my own jpeg pics for wallpaper using the CD-R.
On the Instruction manual it clearly says create BG folder and put any jpeg pics
in that folder.
But when I put the CD into my headunit, it says 'disc reading error'
stating that "/BG/ folder can't be found. Please create /BG/ folder and put any jpegs in that Folder"

What am I doing wrong? I created BG folder and put a jpeg into that folder.
Shouldn't it work? I use Nero to burn my CDs btw.

I would appreciate it if any N2 owner can help me out!

IIRC you need to make the disk big - dump a bunch of big pictures on it. I read the operations manual a month or so ago and recall reading a call out warning that stated that the disk had to be of a certain size to be read by the system.

From page 59 of your manual.

Quote:

When creating a “Background Picture Setting” CD-R (-RW) for changing the navigation unit background picture, make sure the total data size of the CD-R (-RW) is greater than 100MB. However, you cannot use a CD-R (-RW) containing MP3 files or the Audio data part (CD-DA session) for the “BackgroundPicture Setting” function.

Hey i finally figured out how to do it!
I have to create the BG folder and put the pics inthere, and THEN burn that folder on to the CD-R.
What I did wrong was that I created the BG folder using Nero xP
Thanks for your reply=)
