Hi, I've bought a new car audio player with USB port (Kenwood KDCW-534UA) to be used with my video ipod to listen songs and podcast while I'm travelling. How can I navigate through my ipod files once the USB cable is connected (and consequently ipod commands are freezed)? Is there any software or hardware I can buy to solve this problem?
Thanks a lot cheers, Andrea |

Does that model car stereo advertise compatibility with the iPod? If not, then I think you're probably out of luck.

This is what is written on the model specification:
"AAC compresses audio much more efficiently than the MP3 standard. Also used on the Apple iPod, Kenwood AAC compatible head units can reproduce files compressed using AAC-LC, including MPEG-4 and .m4a formats" Indeed I've been able to listen the music stored in the ipod. What I can't do is to listen the music I want (i.e. navigate through ipod folders). I've heard that I must create a new folder on the ipod out of the F01, F02, ... folders and store there the music I want to listen in the car. This folder must have a name that start with a letter coming befor F. The radio than will play first the music present in this folder. Andrea |

Hmmm... I'm not familiar with that model. Is there a support number you can call listed in the manual?

According to page 7 of the manual the USB connection is only to hook up a storage device - it will only access the iPod as a hard drive.
Being able to play AAC files doesn't make it iPod compatible. |
