how the hell do you burn a cd to read mp3s on a car stereo.

i tried a cd with about 50 mp3s but it did'nt work.

the stereo says it can play them. any ideas?

ztik · 04-18-2003, 12:10 PM

what are you using to burn them? Just create a standard data cd and burn them on there, should work fine.

SetTheWorldonFire · 04-18-2003, 12:11 PM

i use nero or something like that.

Libertine · 04-18-2003, 12:12 PM

When you bought your car stereo, did they explicitly say it can play mp3 files?

SetTheWorldonFire · 04-18-2003, 12:13 PM

Exactly, The stereo might not be compatible, try playing it on your home stereo..

Should have worked fine then, I use nero and do it the same way.

Read the book that came with the cd player, it usually says if it needs to be a certain format or directory structure

It's got a MOSFET 50 Watts x 4 power supply, it's XM Ready, provides a pop-up rotary volume knob, and has a flap face with an Organic EL display for increased readability.

Did you burn it with directories?

I just burn them straight data with no directories and works great in mine.
