I have been able to figure it out. You have to have software that can code the picture to the mp3. Once done it functions great....just like the Ipod.

I also had the Pioneer and did not like the nav fuctions. I returned the unit for the Kenwood DDX812. I found I could buy the radio and add the Nav as an accessory for less than the 8120. The Navigation software is by Garmin so you know you will be keeping up to date. I found the software...

I have the DDX812 and it worked perfect for me. It just might not like that thumb drive. I ended up buying a used laptop 30 gb hard drive off of ebay for $15. For another $10 I was able to buy a USB enclosure. It recognized everything perfectly. 30GB of music at my fingertips for less than $30

I sell new cars so I try to buy local when it makes sense. I want people to buy from me instead of going out of town to save a buck or two.......but when it is a huge difference I will buy on ebay. I do try to buy from someone that is on ebay and an authorized dealer. Some shops supplement...

I am having a few issues with my lights at night on my 2002 Pathfinder. I was going to add a cap until I read all of the posts. I would add another battery but I need to know where a good spot to install it would be and also how it would get charged. I did such a good job hiding all my amps...

I bought the DDX812 for $750 shipped about 5 months ago. I then bought the add on 2008 Navigation for $150 shipped. If you search around you can buy them separate for cheaper than buying the unit with built in Nav.

Get the Kenwood DDX812. Built in Bluetooth from Parrot and you can add on Nav as and accessory. Navigation is by Garmin. You get accessories built and designed by proven leaders in their field. I own it and can tell you it is the best deck I have every had. I also was able to add a 30 gb...

I had the a Pioneer and was surprised that I did not like it much. Went with the Kenwood DDX812 and was amazed. I added a 30 gb hardrive for $20 instead of Ipod and now I have all my music with a touch screen. Bluetooth is awesome. Just added the factory Kenwood Nav accessory by Garmin...

Every Bose System is different in different vehicles. I have a 96 Maxima and the Bose System Rocks but my 2002 Pathfinder the Bose completely sucked. Lack of Power and the sound was horrible. I gutted the whole system and started from scratch. Now I have a system to show off and be proud of

I have gone through 2 yellow tops with the same problems and two different vehicles. I called the company and they explained the problem. Yellowtops are great for accessories that run down the battery and then charged right up. I had a vehicle that I did not drive very often and so after...

After looking at my mp3's closer I can see that the only difference between the songs that show the album art and all of the rest that don't is that fact that they have a huge HeaderPosition. Most of my mp3's have under 5000 bytes for HeaderPosition and the only two that show album art have...

The problem is that the one song that list the album art......that art does not exist. I don't have it anywhere. It is not in the file on the hard drive. It is also not anywhere in any of my media on my home computer. It is like the art was encoded with the MP3. There is zero album art in...

I bought a 30 gig hard drive and loaded up my music. Everything works great except it won't show the album art on the screen. I thought maybe the unit was not capable of showing the image until I noticed one song I had showed the picture......odd thing is that I don't have the album art and...

I had 2 different Pioneer units and after returning them I went with the Kenwood DDX812. It is everything I was looking for. I bought the Nav separate and love it. Bluetooth built in rocks. I also added a 30 gig HD for my music. It has all of the features and so far no issues.
