Ford Focus: Aux

Aux
I have a 05 ZX4. I am having difficulties with the entertainment unit.
Firstly, I can't make it read a MP3 CD. It has been suggested to me that
putting all the tunes in the root is what's giving me the "bad CD"
message. Anyone know if that's true?
Secondly, how on earth do I do anything with the "aux"? I would love to
connect a 2G jump drive via USB, or some other connection type, but I
can't figure out how.

I'm not a computer whiz, but whenever I copy MP3 files to a CD, they're
individual files, and not lumped under a master file name. Don't know if
that helps or is even remotely connected to what you're asking, but they
work on my 2004 ZX5 that way.

No, I don't have them in a gross file, just in the root of the media.

CD or DVD media? It will probably not play MP3s on a DVD disk.

Does another CD/MP3 player (other than the one on your
computer) read the disc you made? What software are you
using to create the disc? You can't just copy the MP3 files
to a CD, you MUST have a software program that puts the MP3
files on a disc in the format that a CD/MP3 player can read.
If that is not the problem I would suggest that you try
different media. Some CD/MP3 players read some brands of
media better than others. I have been using Optimum brand
48x discs and my 6 disc changer and it has not had a problem
reading any of them. I put about 225 songs on each disc
(over 10 hours) so I have over 60 hours of MY favorite music
available in my player.
As for your question on the use of the "aux" input, I would
like to know the answer to that too.

Yes they play on other players. I'm going to borrow one made on another
PC & try it. I use Nero, I didn't think there was a better tool for this.
Nobody seems to know how to use the AUX

The Aux is for line level audio. Possible sources: earphone jack on whatever
or the ever present iPod.

i have the same car, same radio and i burned numerous mp3 cd with nero
and never had an issue with playing cds on it. i also put all the songs
in the root directory.
does the cd play any cd at all (audio or mp3)? did you put a label on
the cd, if so the manually tells you nor to put paper labels on home
made cds.
if it will help. shoot an email to me privately and ill tell you how i
burn them to see if this may help you out. theres no magic to what i do.
have you tried posting your question/issue the one of the cd news groups?
