Necvox hq3 does not play music cd and mp3

First you need music to put on the CD. You can put your own music CD in the drive and run Windows Media Player and rip them to your hard drive (copies them). After you get all the songs you want onto your hard drive, you can make an audio CD if you ripped the songs as WAV files (this CD can be played in most CD players) or you can make an MP3 CD if you ripped the songs as mp3 files (this CD can only be played in CD players that support the MP3 standard). To make the audio CD or MP3 CD, just download the free program called BurnAware from the internet and run it. Insert a blank recordable CD in your computer, choose Audio CD or MP3 CD, then choose the songs you want and burn the CD. That's it.

It appears this model Teac cannot play MP3 music files. If the player does not have a MP3 logo on the player then it cannot play MP3 files/music.

You can burn the mp3 music files to a DVD disc. Just burn the mp2 files as normal data files.
Some CD players can play mp3 music files but they need to be burnt onto a CD disc NOT a DVD disc.

in the menu there is a format section
PAL

If the DVD player will not read DVD-RW then you will not be able to play the music with your DVD player.

Hi al - your unit can play the following formats:

DVD VIDEO
DVD -R / - RW
DVD +R / +RW
CD -R / -RW
VIDEO CD
MUSIC CD

The player can play CD-ROMs/CD-Rs/CD-RWs recorded in the following formats:

- music CD format
- video CD format
- MP3 audio tracks and JPEG image files of format conforming
to ISO 9660 * Level 1/Level 2, or its' extended format, Joliet Kodak Picture CD format.
*(A logical format of files and folders on CD-ROMs defined by ISO)

The player can play DVD-ROMs/DVD*RWs/DVD+Rs/DVD-Rs recorded in the following formats :

- MP3 audio tracks and JPEG image files of format conforming to UDF(Universal Disk Format).

In other words, just about everything. If this answers your question PLEASE rate this as fixed. If you need more help just add a comment and I'll be happy to assist you further. Thanks.

If it reads data it will read music (which is only data!)

Do you have a Music Program installed? The type of program will depend on whether the music is in CD Audio format or is in the MP3 format.

Windows media player should be able to read Audio CD's (but I don't think it will read MP3's). If you are trying to play a CD encoded as MP3 then you will need to search for a program that plays MP3's (there are many free ones on the Internet.

If it will not read Data, then buy another unit and install it (they are terribly cheap nowadays and uneconomical to repair).

Good luck.

have you cleaned your laser lens if not buy a cd cleaner disk and make sure the disc is not scratched

DVD players will play CD's and MUSIC CD-R's. Some will play MP3's IF the unit is so designed. You would see the 'MP3' logo on the front.
