What tyue of memory stick do you need for a eclipse head unit and does it need to be formatted to play mp3

you might need to make sure the music files are in the proper format some devices can only play MP3, WAV, or WMA. it may not be able to read AAC files or another format

You can Attach your device to pc

*Make a Backup of your memory card
*Then format your memory card
*Again Copy all songs to your memory card
*Put your memory stick to fm player

Thats It

It will now play all songs... !!

you might want to delete some items that is the only way you can get more memory

Hi,

1. Why do i get format error when i put songs from a cd on the eclipse?
= This is probably because the format that your songs are currently in is not supported by your device. Supported devices on the Mach Speed Eclipse 180 MP3 player are: mp3, wav, and wma. If your music is for example filename.cda, it won't be able to play because of the file format being .cda.


2. I also see the song on the eclipse but it says drm protected and will not play the song.
= When ripping your music, check your ripping options in whichever ripping software you are using that protecting music files is off, this may be the reason why your music cannot play - it may be protected to only play on the computer that ripped(recorded or duplicated) the song.

it only need to indicate WMA or MP3 when its playing in that format. depending on how old the head unit is... most head units sold after the new ISO-9001 Standards need to display any and all specs http://www.iso.org/iso/about/the_iso_story.htm try burning a data copy first to see if the head unit can search through the folders... if it wont search or do anything at all... its .wave (cd) if the display reads unsupported format and continues to search....it does play mp3/wma to get the mp3/wma files to play, change the settings in the burner program. (try default settings) ..... it takes time to render a nice mp3 disc from scratch, one its working, its really rewarding... 18-20 songs just isnt enough anymore.... try to use 320kbps mp3's as much as you can... anything lower will make ant car stereo sound like a 10 dollar alarm clock... keep the bit-rate high when it comes to music... your ears will last longer too...

This MP3 player WILL NOT PLAY Video according to the website, see the information below:
Supported formats are only MP3 or WMA which are both audio formats

I had the same problem. I think most files that itunes uses are in a .m4a format. The eclipse mp3 player will need all the music files in an .mp3 format. The eclipse actually has a "software" folder that includes the "replay converter" that will convert these files for you - or you can download any number of freeware that will convert the files as well. Once I converted those files, my eclipse played everything. Prior to that - even though I had synced everything with my Windows Media player, I was getting the "No Files" message. Good Luck!

Philips hifi systems only support flash memory sticks or MP3 players which show up as flash memory sticks.

SA5125 is not compatible

put the mp3 on the music folder if no folder create one. and pls format your memory stick on you psp not on windows pc.
