In dash cd changer question

I have recently noticed that my cd changer rarely ever goes to the next cd after playing the last track on the current cd. Sometimes it will, but not often. It seems to have a mind of its own. What does everyone else's do?

Mine seems to go to the next CD. But I have only let it play through like that a couple times, as I usually skip through and play only what I want to hear.

Mine has to end the last song ie: if I skip when playing the last song it goes back to track #1 on the same cd. Let it finish and it goes to the next CD

Mine won't go to the next one even if I let it play through the last song. Guess I need to call the dealer?

Mine works

I've been playing mostly homemade audio CD's in my system (Audiophile). If I leave it alone, it will advance from the last song on one CD to the first song on the next. In fact, it buffers up some audio so that it's actually changing the CD while it still plays the current song. The first song on the next CD starts with no more pause than if it was still playing the same CD (cool). If I manually advance from the last song, it will just go to the first song on the same disk. I think that's probably best, since I wouldn't want it switching disks just because I wanted to take a shortcut to get back to the first song (or one of the first songs).

mine buffers just like timhood's does. a data track comes with some newer cds, offering some media and/or internet options only when used with a computer
