For Tha Love Of God...

Does anybody have any idea why tha CD player in my car refusez 2 play MP3'z when right on tha fuckin' face it say'z MP3 Ready ?! I've e-mailed Jensen twice, once each of tha past few months & them fagz simple won't respond to a freakin' e-mail. It's CD3010X in case sumbody else out there haz it. I get these little error messagez either bein' Error 7 or Error 8 & when I e-mailed 'em I asked 'em to tell me what they meant, but nuttin'. I thought it might be tha disk's I waz usin' but that's not it cuz I used a couple of my Brother-In-Lawz & it still didn't work. I thought It might be tha burnin' program I waz usin' but shit, I've tried 'em all now. Well, any help or advise iz appreciated..Thanx.

did you burn the mp3's as an mp3 disk or just a data disk with mp3's on it

[Karizmatik]

I'm not sure I know what ya mean ? I burn tha mp3'z I download to a CD-R, put it in my car & it doesn't work.

[gumdrop ink]

what cd prog r u using?

[cheapprick]

That would suggest that you are burning them as data files. That's all my dvd player requires. The first thing that comes to my mind always is whether or not the person is using a burning program that automatically finishes the cd. Do you know if you are?

[gumdrop ink]

well i know that using ez cd creater has an option to burn an actual mp3 cd, my dvd player wouldnt read just a data disk either would my car cd player with mp3 capabilites till i burned and mp3 disk using ez cd

[Karizmatik]

Pick one, i've tried 'em all...REALLY..LoL

[Karizmatik]

I thought tha same thing cuz I noticed that sum progz didn't finish tha CD but I've been usin' tha ones that do.

[Karizmatik]

I've tried Roxio before cuz that's what my bro uses & I got use to it but when I got my Burner & installed it, it would crash XP everytime.

[Karizmatik]

Yeh, i've used it before & like it so-so...It would work sumtimes & other timez it wouldn't. Haz anybody here heard of a program called "Absolute Music Burner" cuz that prog seemed to work everytime but my trial expired & it seemz like i'm tha only person on tha fuckin' planet who used it...I can't find a key-gen, serial or nuttin' for it.

I used to own a disc player. Maybe your not sampling the mp3s at the right bit rate for the player. Some don't accept such and such a format. Try burning track one at 64kb/s, one at 96 kb/s, one at 128kb/s an one at 320 kb/s. Just use Musicmatch to change the bit rate, and put them on CDr as per usual. Basically, if your player won't do any of these, take it back and get a different one's what I'd do.

[Karizmatik]

Kool, I'll try that then. Thanx Will Rae

are you sure you didn't encode your mp3's to mp3pro format?
Nero can do this and it has same extesion so you would not know it was not a standard mp3 file.

get encspot and check to see the details of your mp3 files, then post them if you still need help.

Ok, yesterday I got tha entire Xzibit album song by song off of Blubster & burned it to a CD usin' MP3 Doctor & it actually freakin' worked wit all songz bein' 192 bps. So of course I'm thinkin' to myself, WHOA ! I finally figured out my problem..BUT WAIT...Today I downloaded a bunch of songz (again off Blubster & all 192 bps), burned 'em to a CD while I got ready to head to school (Adult School). I got in my car & poped tha CD in all happy & shit just knowin' I waz about to hear sum new Cash Money & Fabolous. BAM, not 2 freakin' seconds after I pop in tha CD, ERROR 8 comez up & yet another wasted CD. I GIVE UP ! FUCK U JENSEN !!!!!!!!!!!

take it back and next time you shop take a few cd's with you and see if you can have a listen first.

one thing you could do is get a copy of encspot (it's freeware) and check the good cd and then check the bad cd and see what differances you may see.

encspot checks for errors and give you info on the mp3 file.
some mp3s just are not compatible.

you need to find which encoder was used on the good cd files and perhaps you might need to re-encode your mp3s with that encoder so all your files will play.
I would say use eac (exact audio copy, also freeware)

Well, I would take that piece of shit back but I can't really. When I got it I had 2 take it 2 Sound Of Tristate 2 get it installed cuz I needed a kit or whatever. So If I take it back I gotta pay again 2 get it installed which iz a hundred dollaz. But thanx for tha suggestionz, I'll give those a shot. Hell, @ this point I'll try anythang ! :devilFuck U Jensen:devil

You said that ERROR 8 pops up on the display, well normally there is an appendix or supplemental in the owners or technical manual to identify the possible errors. I would try and find out what ERROR 8 means and then take it from there. Also u may want to take your mp3 files convert them to wav files and then re-encode them all to mp3 using the same encoder. also I agree with Rickio, use encspot and check for errors compare the good and the bad disks. If u are still having problems after all that then I would set fire to it and make some smores cause that sounds like thats all its good for. :P
