Connecting an mp3(non-ipod) audio source

I apologize in advance if this has been covered before, I tried searching and didn't find the info I'm looking for...

 

I'm trying to hookup an mp3 player with an aux (male/male headphone cable) to the F900BT, no success yet. From what I gather, the front port requires an add'l cable with RCA connectors and then I'd need a similar cable for my mp3 player.

 

Is there an aux input on the back of the unit that I can plug a regular male/male 1/8" into to get my mp3 player working?

 

Thanks.

no, there is not a AUX(standard 1/8" connector) in in the back of the unit (reading the manual would have told you this)

 

there is an aux on the front, you need to turn it on in the settings for it to work, you need to have AV2 set to "video" (reading the manual would have told you this)

 

you also just use a standard AUX cable for the front input (a cable with a 1/8" headphone jack at each end)

 

 

 

however, if you dont have an ipod, then you can just use the AV1 as an input, you will have to have a "RCA to 1/8" cable to plug it in.
