Hey, I just got my xB about a month ago and noticed the mp3 icon on my c.d player. I work around car stereos all the time and I'm stoked that my stock stereo has got it already built in, but it won't play past 45 songs. I am using iTunes on my macintosh to burn the mp3's and I need to know what to do about this problem. Going on a trip soon need music or I will be angry!!

Please help

 

Try a different type of cd or burning program...I have a mp3 disk in now that has 55 songs and works fine...if you need a free program looks here www.download.com they have many free ones. hope this works.

 

or, you can always use nero....havent had much problems with that program...works great for me.

 

Folders help with this.

 

Has anybody had any problems going over 100 files???

 

I also use nero for my MP3s never had a problem and all I gotta say is put it in folders(easier to navigate the songs) its either my genre(rap/rnb/dance/pop) or by artist or albums. I have over 200 songs on one cd at 128kbs. I treat each folder as a regular CD so each folder has about 15-22 songs. Maybe there's a cut off in tracks on the player but never had that problem cause of the format I use.

Hope this helps,

 

I just use the one with Windows XP. Works fine.

 

I have a mac also and burned a cd using itunes, has 99 songs on it, it plays fine. I also used the built in burning software to burn a cd with folders and it plays fine too!

 

I tried burning another mp3 disc last night, one on itunes and one just as a regular data disc, the data disc one worked but the itunes disc did not. Both had the same amount of songs on them. About 205 songs. Am I doing something wrong with itunes?

Steps I take: 1. Select the MP3 DISC in the preferences.
2. Place all the songs I want into a playlist.
3. burn the disc.



Thats it, and the itunes disc works on every car stereo, that plays mp3's, at my work.

IS that not strange??

 

Mine plays about 150 song and i use a mac too..e mail me and i will send you the upload
