I went and looked at some mini hi fi units yesterday, took my mp3 player with me (a sony bean) most of them had usb ports on the front so you could play your mp3 through them but, every single one i tried said on the display "no song" but i have at least 300 on there. I tested my mp3 player nothing wrong there so why wont they play through the midi systems. The guy at currys was useless. Can any one help?????

If your search fails in getting you a compatible HiFi, try and get a HiFi with a AUX feature (very common!) and buy a cable that goes from the back of the HiFi (usually 2 plugs, red & black or red & white) to the headphone socket on your MP3 player, sound quality will be just as good. If you are unsure what the cable looks like, go to an electric store and explain what you want. Dont go to Currys etc as they are rip-off merchants. Go to a smaller store, they tend to have the cheaper versions which are just as good.

I think i may have sussed your problem. I think that Sony MP3 players convert the music you upload onto them into sony's own format, which is unrecognizable to other products which arn't made by sony. Because the hi-fi systems you looked at use USB as a connection between your mp3 player and itself, your music is being sent to the hi-fi in the sony format, which the hi-fi system doesn't understand, thus coming up with the 'no song' error message (what it really means that there isn't any song which it recognizes). The answer, is to find a mini hi-fi with an Auxiliary input (a user definable input), then use a 3.5mm stereo jack to phono cable, connecting the phono (red and white) end to the hi-fi and the jack end to the headphone socket on your mp3 player. This ensures that the music transfered from your mp3 player to the hi-fi is simply an analogue signal, rather than some stupid sony encrypted nonsense. Hope this helps.

I had an similar difficulty their is a relay on the contained in the radio above the flexibility provide cord purely you'd be wanting to unplug first then take aside the relay and get about an 8 gaged copper cord to bop from the flexibility provide to different end of your relay (be conscious) this can keep your cooling device operating at the same time as your element is off purely unplug and u might want to be effective
