max bitrate?
Hi all,
Has anyone successfully played mp3s with a bitrate of 320kbps through the ipod/usb interface with a USB stick? This is the bitrate I use to encode all of my CDs to mp3s (I would have tried this myself except that my car hasn't arrived yet). I hope I don't have to re-encode all of my CDs to a lower bitrate. On a separate note, Amazon has the Corsair 16GB flash drive for $59.99 after rebate, which I will probably buy if anyone can help me confirm my bitrate question. Thanks! |

I've been running MP3s encoded at 320k. Although I haven't ruled out the high bitrate as a potential cause for the hang-up in the head unit's recognition of the device...

when using a thumb drive or HD via USB can you see the library as a folder tree?

So I've got one of these and it is working in the car, but the only thing I can access is the directory structure. All the other options - playlists, genres, artists, etc. are not highlighted, so I can't browse them. My drive structure is /music/artist/album. Any ideas?

Cant you select the folder and go to sub-folders to get to the actually song? That is how I am using it right now. I got folders of each album and I have to go into the album folder to see the songs

Yes, I can do this, but can't select any of my m3u playlists.

Not being a heavy tech-junky, can someone explain one thing to me:
Will the functionality of the USB drive, when interfacing with the car systems, be the same as the functionality of the iPod? Will the song menus etc. all look/act the same on the car system? |

Yes, same exact functionality (meaning structure of artist/song/album selection).

Playlists
Wasn't that what post #14 was about? BTW, Newegg also has the 16Gb for $59.99 after $20 rebate now. Think I'll go for it.

Yes, but this does not work for me. Can create them and play them fine when the USB drive is plugged into my computer, but they don't show up in the car, either as files or through the "playlists" navigation button (idrive won't let me select).
