Title: ipod (AUX) to work with iPod Classic
Post by: pharme on June 06, 2009, 17:23:41

Hi, my i30S (May '09 batch) is playing well with my iPod Photo now but I am thinking of getting a iPod Classic (80/120/160Gb) but would like to make sure if it works with the car? Anyone has that working well already in his/hers?

thanks
pharme

G'day!

I have a 30gb Classic, that I bought a LONG time ago, and it works fine, I can only assume these ones will too :)

Worked fine with my 2nd generation Nano.

Love the fact the Hyundai logo shows up on the screen :)

I can confirm it works with iPod Photo if anyone has doubts on this. How about iPod Classic, the later generation that comes in 80/120/160Gb? Anyone can confirm?

My 80G ipod classic works fine in my i30 sx using the special cable.

Yes yes my 160gb classic works well too, in case anyone needs to know.

I got a new iPod Nano (4th Gen) yesterday that matches the colour of my car :)

Works as expected :)

Just quietly, I have issues.

Oh, I get your drift... That's pretty normal for us i30 owners (It's a common thread on here)

We love our little Korean buzz boxes..(he says tongue in cheek)  :wink: :lol:

Even though I have an old school iPod, an iPod Touch, already have a Nano and a shuffle!!!

I am though a little unhappy that I can't navigate the iPod folders via the steering wheel controls. Probably not super safe, but having to reach over is even unsafer! :(

So you haven't got the cable yet.. try ebay (you might get one for about $60 .. assume the one for the Kia Cerato also works on ours)

I just use a 16GB memory stick..

Have the cable. Just if you want to change album you have to use the in-dash buttons, can't do it from the steering wheel.

Useful thread for iPod fans of which I am one.
Hey magicRob - does the nano's crossfade feature work with the i30 stereo?

Crossfade?

Crossfade?

from iPod 4g nano user manual:
You can set iPod nano to fade out at the end of each song and fade in at the beginning
of the song following it.
To turn on crossfading:
Choose Settings > Playback > Audio Crossfade and select On.

I see. Can't say I've ever used that feature. I'll give it a whirl and report back if you want?

Yeah if it's no trouble. I use the feature a lot in iTunes, it kind of turns your music playlist into a non-stop mix.

Crossfade should work, as the ipod does the audio decoding and send the music down the aux cable - as far as I know the USB is purely for power and data/control
