Mp3 player connectivity with Gigaworks G500

Hello which cable do I need to connect my mp3 player to all the speakers. Thanks

Sounds like you have a bad or weak battery in your player. How are you playing your music? Are you using wins Media player or another player to play your music? Do you have the orginal Creative Zen V Plus CD Installation Driver? You might try and uninstall the drivers and reinstall them again. Just some things to think about. I am having a problem w/ my Zen V plus. Read my Post about my problems. (Help w/ Zen V +) Keep posting here for help. ODIE

Suggestion for creative's next MP3 Player, connection for USB Flash Driv

I would to see a connection for USB flash dri'ves to be added to the next mp3 player Creative makes. This way we don't have to rely solely on expensi've and limited in memory SD Cards.

I'm a bit confused as well, flash dri'ves are all more expensi've than the SDHC cards I have of the same size, and a whole heck of a lot more bulky and oddly shaped. I can't see myself strolling around with a ZEN with a plastic knob sticking out of the side, but that's just my opinion.
I like SD cards, they are slim, extremely light weight and easy to carry (mobility is pretty much the entire point of a portable player). It makes it really easy to purchase a few SD cards and use them like interchangeable disks. They are also pretty cheap and rapidly getting cheaper.

MP3 player just with Spotify for running / gym

Bring spotify to the gym or running!!!!
It would be great if there was a mp3 player like the Ipod shuffle but just for spotify. You connect the mp3 player with the computer or via Wi-fi and get your favorite playlist on the device.
All mp3 players on the market that can do that and have those features are too expensive or too big .
We NEED a spotify mp3 player ASAP. I need to work out with my spotify playlist!! :)

I've just thought of the same thing (thought I was being original! :P)! Having to carry a heavy and expensive phone around on a run made me think of a longing for a smaller and simpler device which just did music. I don't want to call or play angry birds on the go!
Would be good if there was an option for mobile connectivity (3G/4G), that way it wouldn't have to be linked to a computer to have access to playlist - and would be open to spotify free customers too. The way of this working would be to have it included on existing phone tariffs. You just pay for the device and it can be included on your plan. Would obviously need cooperation of mobile service providers.
Maybe there could be variants also, some that stream music and some which store music in the device- in keeping with the philosophy of spotify.
it would be cool to have a device that is spotify only (with branding on it etc). ..
i envisaged a circular device which had the play/pause button on the main face of the device (indented slightly so it's easy to distinguish and use) and the volume adjuster working as the bezel (like a watch chronograph adjuster) - you could be very precise with adjustment and would fit seamlessly in with the design.
I would have it in matte black so it's discreet with the spotify logo on the front main face (acting like the play/pause button).
It would be important to make sure it's simple and intuitive to use so you don't have to look at it to use it. It would also be able to be priced competitively.
BUT, the fact that an iPod shuffle can be used to sync with spotify sorta covers this issue.... Just... However, My issue with the shuffle is the fact that you have to use controls on earphones to use it that is frustrating at times (if you don't have earphones which have that capability!). Having the button on the device opens up the options to everyone.
ive even thought of a name for the thing: Spotifygo (or SpotifyGo)
:)

Creative mp3 player compatibility with PFS car au

I was wondering if the "Plays For Sure" compatible Creative Players will work with the PFS compatible car audio receivers from Kenwood and Alpine. I'm mostly wondering about my Zen Xtra, but I'm sure others would like to know if their players would work also. Is Creative pursuing testing this, or should I just assume that all PFS works with all other PFS?

I purchased music from iTunes, but there is one
problem, I can't play it on my Creative Zen Vision
MP3 player.
Yes, you are right.
I even burned a CD with
the music, and it won't play on my car stereo??
You must burn a CD-Audio to play it in your home/car stereo.
If you also want to play those songs on your Creative player, once you've done the CD-Audio you can rip it again in MP3.

My Sony mp3 player synced with my iphoto. How do I unsync it? It no longer shows up as a device in my Finder window.

I plugged my Sony mp3 player into my mac mini, Snow Leopard, and it synced with my iphoto. Now it does not show up as a device anywhere, not even iphoto. When I plug in the mp3 via its usb, it opens iphoto. How do I stop this and get it back as a device in my Finder window so I can load songs on it again.

Turns out my Mac put code on the mp3 player because after I reset the mp3 player to its 'factory settings', (erasing everything) it went back to normal and now shows up in the finder window.

Need help embedding a mp3 player swf with xml playlist

Im a noob to Flash (started tuesday, haha) and so far everything is coming along just fine, but i need to put music in the swf. I have a button set up that slides a swf mp3 player in from the side but i dont know how to make the playlist work with it.
The player is from this site:
http://www.bezzmedia.com/swfspot/samples/flash8/Mp3_Player_with_XML_Playlist
Using the xml playlist with html is simple enough, but im not sure how to use it with Flash Catalyst. Is there an easy way to do this?
My original plan was to have a text list of the songs with a play button next to each one, then when you click on the play button it would set the state of any other songs to Stopped so you can just pick what song to play and if another song was playing it would stop. Im not sure how to do this either (like i said, i started learning this week), so i just tried embedding someone else's (ugly) mp3 player.
Anyway, if anyone knows a relatively easy way to have a playlist in my swf please let me know. Thanks!

If I understand you correctly, you've imported a SWF into Catalyst using Import Artwork on the File menu. When your app runs, you want to pass that swf a parameter that tells it what URL to read a data file from. The SWF is not one that you've created, rather, you got it from some web site.
This is not something that you can do in Catalyst. However it should be possible to do in Flash Builder. I found an article discussing several ways to do it, at http://www.actionscript.org/forums/showthread.php3?t=175951. One idea is the following code snippet
<fx:Script>
    <![CDATA[
    import flash.events.*;
    private function setVars(event):void
        event.target.content.yyyyyy = "zzzzzz";
    ]]>
</fx:Script>
<mx:Image source="xxxxx" complete="setVars(event)" />
where "xxxxx" is the path of the SWF (you can put it somewhere in your Flash Builder project, or reference it via an URL), and yyyyy is the name of the parameter that the SWF expects, and zzzzzz is the path to the data file. The <Image> tag is what Catalyst created when you imported the SWF. (btw.the Image and SWFLoader tags are almost identical).
I hope this gives you enough info to make progress.

Rsync/unison to/with mp3-player, problem with permissions

Hi,
I'm trying to sync my music database with my mp3-player via rsync or unison, but both complain about the mp3 being a read-only device (It's detected as a FAT32 harddrive, btw.).
The interesting thing is: It is not mounted read-only. I can copy music onto it just fine via e.g. thunar, only the two sync programs complain.
What could be the problem?

The error messages are variations of:
rsync: chgrp "/media/path/to/file/on/mp3" failed: Read-only file system (30)
Seems like it's permissions-related, so maybe I should get rid of the "keep permissions" option implied in rsync -a. I'll try that and the udev rule, thanks.
Another thing: Unison takes AGES to check for changes (and I do mean ages, ~10s per file). Is that normal?
[edit:]
Another error:
rsync: mkstemp "/media/path/to/file/on/mp3/*.ogg.w7qqip" failed: Read-only file system (30)
I haven't played around with the rsync-options yet. I tried the udev rule though, didn't help. One thing is strange: the rule sets gid=100(=users), but all the dirs/files on the device are <mylogin>:root owned. Shouldn't that be <mylogin>:users?

Mp3 player compatible with mac

I was looking for a non ipod that is compatible with the
mac 10.4 os.
i want the fm radio option and disposible battery option .
i want to be able to use itunes to transfer songs.
any recommended models
thanks

As iTunes is basically an iPod only affair here are some thoughts.
FM Radio is an option on the iPod by using the Apple Radio Remote.
Replacement iPod batteries are widely available (I just Googled for 'iPod Batteries').
But if you're sure...
This application allows you to sync iTunes playlists with an mp3 player that mounts as a volume on the desktop (I'm using it with my PDA Phone (with a 512Mb MMC card) - but it's a poor, poor relation to my wife's Nano with proper iTunes integration). So this application will work with any mobile Phone/PDA or mp3 player with removable media and a card reader.

Mp3 player works with snow leopard but not with lion

hallo i have a mp3 player trekstor i.beat move s 2.0 lion dose not recognise it . but sl dose. is there any thing that i can do to change this? pat10

And update alone is not recommended or enough, which - sorry for short answers - is why PC users uninstall and do all the rest, EVEN if they are just updating or testing new drivers.
Ideal is to uninstall the device for vendor A before switching and installing device vendor B, with uninstall and delete old drivers in Safe Mode. Less trouble, games etc run better, and your fps etc will reflect such.
Using 3DMark06 and Vantage are two good tests to insure all is working.

Dual headrest DVD player connected with Sync MyFord Touch, is it possible?

Hi, I am emailing you because I am currently in the process of buying a new car and I am trying to find some information on aftermarket Headrest DVD players. The car that I am buying has the updated Sync MyFord touch system with navigation and all that. What I want to do, and I am trying to get information for is if there is anyway to have Dual DVD headrests installed in the car and have them connected to the front Touch navigation screen so I can put DVDs in up front and have them play in the headrest screens as well as the front NAV screen weather Im in drive or parked. And even better if I cant watch media off of a device by plugging in a USB or through RCA connection to a Media device? I am currently deplyed out of fort carson and will be returning in May and I am looking for a place that can do what I am looking for. Thank you for any information.

Hi bobby08dtp,
I would really recommend that you head over to your nearest Best Buy and talk to one of the Install Bay techs. He/She will have more experience in this area than I do. I'm hoping one of our super people will also chime in and help. Thanks,

Using with Hotel MP3 player clocks

Many hotels have clocks with MP3 player connections. I can get my Touch alarm set, and the selected alarm sound will play thru the desktop alarm/clock, but I can't figure out (if there is a way) to have the Touch play something from the Library at the chosen alarm time. The only selections under Edit Alarm/Sound are 5 sounds.
Am I asking the impossible?

I think a universal "none" is probably a bit presumptuous. If you're able to get music onto the player in Windows via drag and drop, I see no reason why that won't work on the Mac as well, provided that your Mac can recognize the drive. I would imagine it can, as I've never come across a PC formatted drive that my Mac didn't recognize.
There is also a freeware application called XNJB that apparently works as an interface between a Mac and a Creative MP3 player. I haven't used either, so can't vouch for them at all.
Just that like I said, a universal "none" is probably a bit presumptuous.

Error when trying to controll mp3 player with webService

Hi
I have a system to controll some things in my house, and one of them is my soundsystem. I have a tablet that communicates with an server that do the acctual work.
I found an mp3 player online with the source-code, and I want to controll it using webservices from the client. I stript it an added it to my system. I just want to have buttons on the client, and then the server to do the actual work.
If I don't use WS, just make an object of the player, I can add music to it and play them.
If I do the exact same thing, but it's the WS that gives the commands on the server side I get an ex.
Unable to handle format: mpeglayer3, 22050.0 Hz, 16-bit, Stereo, LittleEndian, Signed, 7000.0 frame rate, FrameSize=32768 bits

I have tryed asking google about the format, and i found somethin about that it hade problems finding the codec. I can se the codec in my JMF Regisrty.
I can find the "com.sun.media.PlaybackEngine" in the jmf.jar thats in my lib.
I have installed jmf 2.1.1e.
Server and client are run from the same pc.
I have tryed from diferent pc, but it dident work.
Anyone?

Maby the best thing is to move it yes. Can you do it, or tell me how I can do i.I am not so sure now, that that is the best move, since it seems the web service is playing some part in the problem.
I'll leave it to your decision though. If you want it moved, surf on over to the [latest Report Abuse thread|http://forums.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5422989&tstart=0] and ask the mods to move the thread to JMF.

MP3 Player - Is it realistic with Flex???

Hi every Flex fans and Flex experts,
After a week of fluctuation from happy to angry, I conclude
that there is not a lot of resource to build a nice-and-easy MP3
player in a Flex application. Yes and no! I mean, there is some
basic solutions, such as the idea from Viper Creation (
http://www.vipercreations.com/tutorials/Adobe%20Flex/29.html).
But when you look at all those SWF available from Flashkit.com or
whatever the web site is - in case of independant flash developer -
it seems that there is a lack concerning parameters when it is time
to use the SWF at the full advantage. What I mean by that is most
of those super Flashy MP3 Player - working with a playlist in XML -
are passing a lot of parameters to setup the style of the player.
In Flex, we can use the component SWFLoader and indicate the Source
but when you try to play to much with the parameters (everything
after the "?" and split with "&"), the system does not like it
and you cannot compile!
I been looking and looking since there is not a lot of
documentation at this time to try to find a way to play with
parameters but without a lot of succes.
If anybody have hint to help me, please do not hesitate.
Thank youm

Any music and videos purchased on iTunes will not work on any other player other than iPods and iPhones as well as your computer. Sony MP3 players will not play music and videos purchased in iTunes because of the digital rights management included in every purchase.
You can burn the music to disc. Have a great day.

1st MP3 player, a Zen Touch and it wont

I just received a second hand Zen Touch, my first MP3 player woohoo!! not!!
Day
When the player first arri'ved I plugged it into my PC and I was able to view it as a separate dri've and could see all the files and songs that had been loaded good stuff, cool!!
I installed WMP on my laptop and thought I was off and running ripped a CD and tried to transfer it's hit Sync (wasn t sure I should do that but I assumed that s how to transfer) it says the device is FULL and I know it'ss not. (25.9 GB remaining) so I tried dragging items into the sync list, hitting start sync, and NOW it tells me there is not enough storage space on my computer err!!
Downloaded the manual because obviously I don t know what I m doing no help there just more confusion.
Day 2
Note:
I deleted about 000 songs and had also plugged the player directly into my PC speakers for external sound it worked so I hope I didn t damage it'sbecause the Zen dri've shows up on my PC still, but now empty...WHAT!! But its not all songs are still there and they play, I just can't view the files
Is there maybe a setting or something I may have unknowingly screwed up I really haven't done anything except delete some artists that aren t my cup of tea.
I installed Creative Media Source 5 Organizer from thinking that was the ticket, but still I get a message telling me that there is no Creative MP3 player connected.
The seller supplied a burned CD with the driver version .0.0.0 so
I reinstalled it'sstill nothing
Tried the Firmware, not sure what this is but it was on the disc so what the heck.
(Version ..3.0 and Plays4sure 2...0) but message says the player isn t connected go figure
I followed the article on checking my USB connection still nothing
Then I found this forum and searched it only to find similar problems with no solution .can someone PLEASE HELP a newby to MP3 players
Thanks

I could recommend a few things, but will not guarantee these are the solutions.
First off make sure that your computer is detecting the MP3 player, either as a device or even a hard dri've.
Second see if there should some sort of folder structure the player recognizes, some players have this annoying functionality, where there might be hidden folders with content (since used device).
This would be my guess, see if you have a virus scanner software that may have inadvertently or through some setting may have recognized or found some content in your MP3 player unsafe and may have quarantined it, surprisingly this does happen.
If none of these seem to help then do the most default solution. Reset the player to its original settings, should be some reset button or format the MP3 player. Unplug the device remove the drivers uninstall the software and then re-install them fresh.
This is what I can think of.

ITunes - mp3 player for kids - iPod

I have iTunes for my mac and my own iPod. I want to get my kids an inexpensive mp3 player (non-apple) for Xmas. Does this work? Can I load their players with their songs from my library?

Yes, but it won't be as easy as synching with an i-device. I have a Sansa player as well as a RCA MP3 player. With both devices you can simply copy mp3 files to them. As long as the mp3s are tagged correctly you can arrange by artist, album etc amnd play that way. If you want playlists things get a bit tricky. Neither player has software that supports OSX so playlists on the Sansa either have to be created by hand or using a third party script.
If your computer can run Windows you can use the software that way, otherwise there is a moderate degree of inconvenience, especially if playlists are important.
