I cannot get my 730n to read a USB stick, so I tried a CD-R and it still would not read a JPG on it. My stupid question is: am I even using a correct CD-R to put a JPG on it?
Seems the radio recognizes it a a music CD and tries to read it as that. My radio just will not recognize a JPG format no matter what I do. Any thoughts would be helpful. Do I need a special kind of CD-R to put a JPG on? I just want to put one of those cool pics on my radio screen. The one guy on here has made about a thousand of them for other forum members. Anyone's help will be greatly appreciated. I'll try anything at this point.

From what I have read, you need to have at least one MP3 on it. Doesn't matter what, just that it needs an MP3 on the source.

Download a song of any kind it sounds like. That's MP3 right?

How big is your usb drive?

Yes, any song.

Have a one gig stick. I put one .mp3 file on it and one .jpg on it and still will not recognize the photo. The mp3 file overrides all functions. It runs as soon as you install the stick and it will not let you do any photo downloads while song is playing. Guess I have to be happy with the blue Dodge emblem, yuk.

There may be a resolution limitation. That is something I have yet to run across. You may try shrinking the jpeg and see what happens.

I do have about 10 different .jpg's, all varying sizes. I will try the smallest size and work my way from there. Thanks for the tip.
