    I got a new hi-fi today (Samsung micro mmj 330 in Argos). I wanted to play music through the usb port. I tried my ipod shuffle first and it just said no file so I put the music onto a memory stick and I had the same problem. I'm no expert on these things and would appreciate any help to get it going.

    Make sure the files are .mp3s not the apple audio formats of m4a's.

    Some are MPEG 4 Audio and some are MP3 Format sound.

    Delete the m4a (mpeg 4 audio) files, and only use mp3's. Make sure they're in a folder too. Hope that works.

    Yes that seemed to work. Thanks. Will I have to download all the other songs now in mp3 or is there a way to change them from mpeg4?
