This is interesting as I still have an old car, but does it also work as a stand alone MP3 player?

Yes, it works as a stand alone mp3 player. Another interesting note: Infrared reciever on the player only faces out on a tape player wherethe tapes insert longitudinally, so I am out of luck with my old Mercedes Grand Prix stereo unit.

Yes it works as a stand alone mp3 player. It's actually the best 13.00 I ever spent. It works great! The charge cord that came with it sucks but I just use the one for my phone.

yes - that's why i purchased this. Sometimes my car player heats up and skips. We're trading up soon, so rather that spend the extra to replace it, i switch to the Coby unit with portable speakers.

No, it is not a stand alone player like a mp3 player or ipod. It's just a dongle that connects or bridge the connection between your phone or tablet to your head unit via aux connection.

(update) On some cars, it will instantly play, no download or software configuration needed.I primarily use this drive for photo, documents, and on-USB programs, but it will play music. Make sure to get a small loop and lanyard though, it can be hard to take out of ports without one.

The Car stereo has to have a totally separate cd/cassette player, that's were the aux. jack gets it power from Not a radio with built in cd and/or cassette...I know.. I wanted to be able to plug a mp3 player to it, though I found someone on ebay that converts the factory radio and Im very pleased..

Yes, it can hook up to hands free car kits, headphones, and speakers without any difficulties.I no longer use it as a phone; it is now a super-cool mp3 player that I use with bluetooth speakers.

Plays through cars stereo and no, it does not have its own speakers. The MP4 is there to show you the album cover of whatever record you have uploaded to a flash type card and plugged into the player. Great little item if you have an older FM stereo radio and no CD/tape player.

The lower two buttons are meant to play the next and previous song. But in my case nothing worked and I had to trash. Presently I am happy with "Amzdeal Car Kit MP3 Player Wireless FM Transmitter ".

If I understand you right, you have a car stereo that has a USB port but no audio input. If that's the case you can can connect your Walkman in this device and play it thought FM Radio. The USB port in this device is another input.

Yes, it uses your car FM radio to receive the audio signal from this thing. It plays through your car speakers. All you need is a USB memory stick to store your songs. I hope I understand your question correctly. I prefer the Satechi unit b/c it has a stronger/clearer signal.

Yes - although I use it just as a holder and play music through the Bluetooth function of the car.

The sound is fine when you play the attached mp3/music device. Keep in mind the attachment is only transmitting a radio signal. If there is any sort of sound quality issue, more than likely it will have to do with the player or possibly the car stereo instead of this device. As long as the radio channel is not being used by a station, and your volume is all the way up on the attached device, everything will sound fine.

I'd like to know this too. Will this stereo work with any MP3 or will it only work with an iPod?

What kind of car? I don't use it like that but you can advance songs via the cd controller

You can connect it to almost all the mp3. Does you mean put the mp3 in it? No, it just connects mp3 outside. And the quality of this is not so good, at least for me.

I use an mp3 car adapter. You can play anything with a 3.5mm headphone jack through the radio. It is not perfect but well worth the small investment if you have a car without a connection built in. Plug it into the cigarette lighter or accessory power port, tune radio to a blank area of the dial and tune the adapter to the same number and you are ready to play your phone, mp3, portable Cd or Dvd through the car stereo speakers. It will fade in and out some but its cheaper the a new stereo installation. Good luck.

My car doesn't have USB port but it would likely work. I can play files using Clip through my computer. If you are going to play it through car system I hope to God your using FLAC and not MP3 files.
