Burning MP3 cds for 07 LS
Ok I feel stupid asking this since I do work a lot in car audio but I bought a new 07 LS less than a week ago and wanted to keep the factory deck in it but....
I'm having trouble making any MP3 cds work in it... I can burn them with windows media which makes them .cda files and they play fine but you can only fit like 20 on a cd where you can fit like 100 mp3s in folders on a reg cd-r.
The owners manual says it supports mp3 files AND folders so I should be fine but when I put the disk in it just says error and ejects it...
I'm positive I have the MP3 deck in it (not the pioneer one) since I think the standard one that doesnt play them doesnt have the AUX input on the front right?
I really need some help with this since I am about ready to rip that stock cd player out of there for a double din Alpine deck or something...
Thanks in advance!!!

Nope. All HHRs have the jack regardless of the level of system. If you can't play MP3 disks and you have an LS I would say you have the lowest level deck that doesn't play MP3 disks.

Didn't he say he can burn mp3's and get them to play? He just can't get more than 20 or so on a cd-r. I'm not an expert, but I burned a bunch of songs recorded at 320kbps onto cd-r and get about the same thing. Is there a way of compressing the space and maintaining the audio quality? If you get 100-120 songs on 1 CD-R it would seem the only way to do it would be to record it at much lower kbps rates and deal with the lower quality...is this correct???

According to the GM Canada web site (http://www.gmcanada.com/english/vehi...r/hhr_opti.jsp) the base CD player does not support MP3 playback. Only the upgraded single disc and 6-disc changer can play MP3s.
The owners manual is generic and covers all the available radio options for the HHR.
