Continued, the songs will play in alphabetical order unless you number them. Starting with 01 02 ETC then they will play in that order of number

You can also use family photos for the album cover art and then you get a totally personalized album. The photos will show on the Rushmore 6.5 radio when any of the songs assigned to that album is playing.

You mean I can have a picture of my favorite girl (shown below) while listening to my favorite tunes LOL




Seriously, where can I download .wav files. Is itunes or Android music a good source. And my family comes before my toys, for the record.

Blutooth audio compresses the audio beyond the file compression, i.e. quality is lost. USB is always better.

You have to use a tag editor program to embed the album art into the file. WAV files do not allow this but .mp3, .m4a and .wma files do. There are several choices available. iTunes will do it but you have to make sure the art is saved for each individual file of an album because it does not do this by default. There are others such as Mediamonkey, Musicbee, etc. that also allow you to manage your entire audio library. There are also some programs that are just specifically for tag editing vice library management.

In Windows media player or any media player/recorder yoou can select the destination and type of download. Take a CD and rip it to your hard drive as a wav file, then transfer the wave file to flash drive then plug & play.

Make sure your flash drive is a big one 16 Gig at least
