How to play Mozaic over car radio speaker system without static?

Playing Zen Mozaic over Car?s Radio Speaker system without static?
I just purchased a Zen Mozaic and want to use it primarily for playing books downloaded from the local library over our car?s radio speaker system without static.
I purchased a cheap audio cable to connect the zen to the AUX interface in the car but I understand that trying to play it over the car runs into the problem of bad static.
Is there some device that will allow me to play the Mozaic over the car radio system without static?
Thanks very much.

D? Are you simply plugging a jack from the headphone output on the Zen into a headphone-like input on your stereo? That sould work fine, with possibly only slight "whine". If you are wiring into the back of your stereo, it should work just as well unless you have poorly shielded cables or your car has crummy sparkplugs. Do a Google search on this---what you are doing in case 2 is common on motorcycles and they will tell you how to use a resistor circuit to cut down on ignition interference.
You can also either use a cassette adapter (if your stereo has a cassette player) or an FM transmitter (many varieties of these). The FM transmitter works well, but you'll pick up static and interference if you dri've into an area where an actual FM station is using that frequency. You just have to "change channels" on your radio and transmitter in this case---simple. The sound is pretty good (not as good as direct cable or cassette adapter) and is more than adequate for books.

  • Unable to play music over car radio

    I have just gotten my new sIII, but I am not able to get the radio in my Kia to play the music off of the SD card. it says that it is unreadable.  What can I do to get it to be able to read the music I want to play?

    Can you play the music on the phone?   Either with earphones or with the speakers....
    If the music won't play on the phone, it can't possibly play through the car stereo either.
    If the music player works fine on the phone, then it's the car that's the problem.
    Use a line in jack to an Auxilary port in the car and play that way.   Your car stereo must be set to AUX of course.

  • How do i get my ipod touch to play on the car radio

    How do I get my Ipad touch to play through the car radio?

    You can buy something like this Belkin Cable here, which I use, and plug it into your car's Aux port if it has one. They can also be found in most electronics stores.
    If your car doesn't have an Auxillary port, you can buy something like the Griffin iTrip, which allows you to set your iPod to transmit on a specific FM frequency, and you can just tune your car to that station. You can find that anywhere electronics are sold.

  • How do you download music and burn to a cd so it will play in a car radio

    How do you download music and burn to a cd so it will play in a car radio?

    Download the tracks you want form the iTunes Store, Amazon MP3, or other online music retailer.
    Use iTunes to put them into a playlist.
    Open the playlist and click File > Burn Playlist to Disc.   (Have a blank CD-R ready for this step.)  When the dialog comes up, choose "Audio CD." 
    This will create an audio CD that will play in a normal CD player such as the kind found in cars.

    Yes, go to Preferences in iTunes, set the Import setting under the General tab to use MP3. Then select the tracks you want to convert, now you should see a choice in the File menu called 'Create New Version' with a sub-choice of MP3.

    Hi there Graham!
    I have a couple of articles that can help you troubleshoot this issue. First, if you are downloading HD content, you will need to know the system requirements for HD playback, which can be found here:
    iTunes: Purchasing and viewing HD videos
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3209
    Next, you will want to check your video playback settings on your Windows machine. The steps for that can be found right here:

  • How to play Ipod in car?

    I'm wanting to know how I can play my Ipod in the car? The car doesn't have an auxillary port, nor does it have a cassette tape player and I'd rather have something that I can bring with me on car trips. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thank you in advance!

    You could get an FM transmitter. It broadcasts you music over the radio so you can just tune to that station on your car's radio. It won't sound as clear as an auxillary port, but it will work. Here's one sold in the Apple online Store: http://store.apple.com/us/product/TX467VC/B?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY

    I don't see why not, in fact doing it that way will give you better sound quality that using FM transmitters. I use a tape adapter.

  • How do I play Apple TV through auxiliary speaker system?

    Please help. I am trying to use my Apple TV to play movies with the sound instead of going through the TV through a speaker system. The only Input for the speaker is a Female Auxiliary. I do not have an Auxiliary Output with my TV. Is it possible to run the audio through my AirTunes Express Auxiliary? That is how I play music through my computer into the speakers. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks!

    The Apple TV outputs a digital signal over an optical cable, you would need to convert this to an analog signal for your sound system. You can do this with a DAC (Example Only -Not a recommendation or suggestion that this is suitable in your circumstances).

  • How can I use a 5.1 speaker system? Logitech X-540 5.1

    I am looking into buying this:
    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Logitech-X-540-Multimedia-Speaker-System/dp/B000LBHFMO
    Although, I am aware there aren't enough ports in order for it to work on my laptop.
    How do I go about getting these ports externally? I mean like, an external sound card? Does such a thing exist?
    Thank you

    I imagine there is, but I can't recommend one. It will need an optical audio input through which to receive a 5.1 digital signal from the MBP's headphone port, and a digital-to-analog converter to provide the analog signal that the speakers evidently require.
    I wasn't able to find specs for the speakers to see how many channels of input they expect.

  • How to play the music in a HIFI system using bluetooth or WIFI

    How to throw music from Sony Xperia Tablet S to another device, I have tried without success to throwthe music to Windows Media Player 11 (in a Windows Vista and in a Windows 7 computer), using DLNA/DRM, and also to Bluetooth. What I want is to listen the music in a HIFI system, without the need to be connected by a cable. Both DLNA/DRM and Bluetooth tecnologies should support this.
    I have configured DLNA and I can play in the tablet music that is in the both windows computers, but the next step I am trying is to be free to play the music from the servers in the Xperia tablet using any HIFI system at home.

    I have found the solution: check "Allow remote control of my player" option is checked in the Streaming menu (Alt + r) of WMP..
    Here is the full explanation, I am able now to throw the music from the tablet to the laptop and I will connect the laptop to the HIFI system.
    DLNA in Windows 7
    I used the Windows Media Player in Windows 7 for initial testing. It does not comply to all DLNA specifications for all components, but it uses the same underlying protocols. It does have a "Play To" feature, which is an implementation of the capability I need.
    Windows Media Player (WMP) is easily able to see all of the Media Servers on my network. If you can get to the beginning of the breadcrumb bar near the top of the window, all servers are easily selected. The breadcrumb bar is an easy way to switch between media servers and drill down to get to the media you want to search or browse for. The Search field is the only location in WMP I can easily locate. Just press Control + 1, to switch to Library view, then Control + e, to place you in the Search edit field. Here is a list of WMP keyboard shortcuts I have compiled, Windows Media Player To DLNA Devices in Word .docx format. I have not found easy ways to get to most controls, including the Playlist, other than pressing Tab many times. The exceptions to this are few. The Search results can easily be found just by using the Down Arrow key. Particularly, useful for streaming media around the house are two control accellerators; the Streaming menu (Alt + r) at the top of the window, and the Play to drop down (Alt + t) above the Playlist. It saves a lot of Tabbing around. They only work if in a list, like the Search or Playlist. Strangely, the Alt + t accellerator everywhere else brings up the Tools menu. The Streaming menu is needed to set up permissions of the Player to share media, act as a renderer to other Windows 7 players, set Parental controls, allow / deny devices on the network, and to allow media on this server to be piped out to your computer anywhere on the Internet. To assure that your Media Library is available to others on your home network anytime the computer is turned on, make sure the "Automatically allow others to play my media" option is checked in the Streaming menu (Alt + r). To assure that other devices (Android phone, another Windows 7 / 8 computer, or XBox) can play media on this computer, make sure the "Allow remote control of my player" option is checked in the Streaming menu (Alt + r). Note that Windows Media Player must be open on this computer for other devices to be able to select and Play to this player. The Play To drop down menu lists all devices on your networkk capable of rendering, more simply said Play, the selected media. In most cases, WMP will direct all network traffic and transcode formats to the format accepted by the renderer.
    The "Play to" menu above the Playlist in Windows Media Player is also available as an option in the Applications (right click) context menu in Windows Explorer. This is probably one of my most used and favorite Windows 7 features! It displays a submenu of all of the current active DLNA Renderer devices at that moment. If there are none available at this time, the "Play to" feature is not in the context menu.
