Unhappy 981 artist name/song title in multi function display issues with sat radio/radio

Anyone know if there is a way to get artist name/song title in the multi function display on a 981 using sat radio or the regular radio? Currently I can only get station name in the display but when I turn on infotext it gives me artist and song title on the pcm but not the multi function display. When I use Bluetooth or the USB it gives me artist name and song title and works great for those in the multi function display but not sat radio/radio. It's frustrating and I've been through every setting. I have version 4.76.

The manual for the PCM and Infotainment system is huge. If it's possible to do what you want, I'm sure it's in that manual somewhere. I never use the multifunction display to look at the song title, so haven't tried to do what you want to do.

I looked in there and it didn't say anything about it. I appreciate it.

I never paid much attention to the display in front of me in the instrument cluster, but the other day I noticed when I'm listening to Pandora or Jukebox, I see the name of artist and song. My car was built in July of 2015, one of the early 2016 models. I have Bose with Nav.

[The name comes up with Bluetooth or USB but not the regular radio or sat radio.
