podcast playback via USB thumbdrive?


Recommended Posts

I'm looking at buying this for my Xterra. I mainly need basic GPS and Aux/Ipod/thumbdrive input, and the price is right on this model.

 

Regarding THUMBDRIVE/USB input, I listen to alot of podcasts. My little Nano will remember where I stopped playback of an MP3 and will RESUME at that spot on next play. Will the 310 resume playback from a thumbdrive?

 

How is the thumbdrive playback in general? Navigation of menus, ID3 tag display, etc?

 

Thanks.

This is mainly from memory, so don't hold me to it...

 

Regarding using a plain USB memory drive, I believe playback starts at point of shutdown. It seems to load the file folder structure reasonably fast, but I have not tried it with more than a few hundred MB so far. The unit will show the folder structure on 3 or 4 lines (top half of the screen) and you navigate folder to folder using up/down toggle on the knob. Move into/out of a folder using left/right toggle on the knob. Play song by pressing center of knob (or right toggle which is a bit easier). Very basic but functional.

 

I think it also allows you to pick which tags are displayed. I can't remember if this is a master setup setting or something you can change while playing...
