Another CF card ??

Discussion of Infiniti's amazing (and underrated) sport-luxury crossovers, the EX35 and EX37. For 2014, the EX series will be renamed QX50, in line with Ininfiit's new naming conventions.

What software do you all use to record to the CF card? I am using itunes but I would like to record directly to the CF card. Thanks..

WMP will manage a CF card as a storage device. It will organize albums into folders on the card, which makes it much easier to navigate. Once you have a CF card set up like this, an iPod doesn't hold a lot of advantage.

I use CDex to rip audio CDs (just do a google search for info and download links, etc). It's free and works perfectly.

Like inteller said, I personally use Windows Media Player.

you could do that, but WMA is higher quality for the same file size.

When I did it that way the car told me there were no audio files found?

What is the bitrate of the files? Intiniti states that it will play WMAs up to 192kbps and MP3s up to 320kbps. I can't remember if that is up to VBR or simply a 192 CBR. I'm currently forcing WMP to encode to 192 CBR, as I really can't distinguish the difference over the "quality" Bose sound system.
