im trying to get the CD player to work, but i cant seem to get it.

what formats does it play from the computer?

i know already that it doesnt play MP3, i wasted a CD finding that out.

so anyone have suggestions?

 

Only works with standard CDA format (Red Book Standard)... - your baisc audiio CD.

If you are making an Audio CD make sure you choose a disc at once creation rather than closing the session after your done. The player does not seem to like multi session CD's. But hey the deck is a cheap IMO - so dont bother trying plus formats either. Use a standar CDR (not a CDRW). One day I am gonna rip this head unit out and replace it.

Hope that helps,

which program lets me use CDA format, or rather what can i use to convert tracks to CDA format?

 

I would recommend using Nero to burn the cd. You just select the audio files to burn, after selecting audio cd, and it does everything else for you.

 

It's CD Audio only, But it does read CD-R and CD-RW discs just great.

 

Oh how i wish it was an MP3 player !!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

My stock (looking) head unit plays MP3's...
