2009 Radio 9's support MP3

[Wdhitch]

Did you have a specific question on the radio? Sorry I didn't have a seperate manual... maybe your dealer can get you one?

[eskargo]

you can get the title/tag to display by:
Press the <MENU> button and use arrows Right & Left of volume control to scroll through the menu items. When you get to MP3TEXT, if it isn't set to ID3, use volume knob to select ID3 or FILENAME.

for ID3 tags: if you get only two characters preceeded by a blank space and may be TT, TB, TC, TP, TN, TH, TW, TA, TD, TM, T', TF, TJ, TV, TI, TS, TL, T1, TR, T8, TQ, TG, TE, or TK. that's because the mp3 files' tags saved can not be read by the player.

see Radio 10 & ID3 Tag display for further explanation.

wdhitch -

no specific questions, just thought I'd like to read it. long cold winter nights up here...
seriously though, nice to have just for reference. not even sure what the manual is, maybe just a few pages. online would be nice. I'll ask the dealer.

Hi, I just read my 2008 owner's manual and it reads that only the radio 10 is mp3 compatible. My radio 9 has an mp3 disc in it right now. This is fantastic!

I had a question. Does anyone besides me not get the smart Logo but only the off center word "smart" on the display. I thought the logo comes up with the word "smart". Is there a way to program it or something?

All I ever remember seeing on the screen is SMART at startup...

[SJ2000]

Same here, but when you look at, I think brochures and stuff, they have the C> smart logo on the display of the radio. Am I to suppose that was photoshopped?

Does anyone know who makes radios for smart? You probably could cross reference through radio manufacturerer. I was able to play MP3 disk with 200 tracks on it no problem (2009 smart cabrio).

In fact, the manual says up to 250 tracks per folder....

And to finalize it, I watched the radio on boot up and no symbol. Just smart. Must be a prototype radio or Photoshopped...
