CDEX will make the MP3's which you can try on your player. WMP may put some copy protection on, but I go with what I use...

What player?
Jan 16, 2005 5:19PM PST

Philips players are very picky about what software you use. All of the Philips HDDxxx players REQUIRE the use of the DMM included software and they are not compatable wiht mp3s or wmas with any DRM on them. Check your player and check you instructions, does it say you can use Windows Media Player?

download and use "sveta portable audio". the philips player is getting a bad rap just bacause of its software, when you can get good software.
