player wint accept mp3 disc or mp data files burned off mac book running leopard thoughts?

 

will work. but a lot more simple to plug in 8 GIG USB drive into your glove compartment full of songs.

 

What format is required or works best?

Thanks.

 

I had to use a 25 GIG USB for my songs, have some space leftover.

 

MP3. Same format you can burn on CDs, but I would rather have flash drive. I hate CDs, loading them, changing them, worrying about scratching them.

 

I have done this many times.
I use Itunes to burn the audio CD
Start Itunes,
insert a cd in your burner
select the songs to be burnt
Choose Preferred Speed = Maximum Possible
Dusc Format = MP3 CD

This will work in your ES350 player and it will include the song title.

However, I bought an Ipod adapter that attaches to the back of the radio head unit and I use my Ipod player. Great sounds and al of the wheel controls work.

 

sorry forgot to mention its a 2008 does that change things? cause i did the itunes thung and it didnt work and i dint have a usb slot, so what next

 

Have you burned the disc as an audio disc? Does it play? It could be a problem with the type of disc you have.

Before replacing my radio, my wife had dozens of discs with her music on them. I use WMA 320kbps as the format though. I could fit between 150 and 175 songs on an 80 minute CD.

 

Mi car is a 2008 also. The info above has worked great for me. But it must be an audio disk

 

SO IT WORKED had to go in and separate out mp3's from more resent formats like mp4 and AAC.

so now I have 175 songs, next issue: should I put them in folders before burning so I don't have to scroll thru 100 to get to number 101? Is this possible

 

Folders work perfectly with the system; I have mine seperated into artist - album name and can select a CD using folder up/down (5 and 6 on the non nav unit I think.)
