After the radio has here now receive so great reviews, I have purchased radio cassette me to replace my a few months ago, but already somewhat dated days.
At first I was very excited ters.
Connecting was done quickly and also the external microphone was installed quickly.
The menu is clear and structured, can be found even without instructions quickly what you're looking for. Commendable!
Sound and settings were great absolute top for this price range.
The first impression was therefore very Passignano.
I had previously read the JVC a app for this radio offers with which you can control the radio including.
So ruck twitch loaded the app from the Play Goals and installed.
From here I realized how immature the first software of APP and Radio.
To configure:
1. KD-R741BTE closed with the 8GB USB Flash Drive (beginning with mixed content later filled only with MP3)
2.Android phone with JVC APP
So, before I had the app loaded men's I noticed that the navigation was very idle by the MP3s on the stick because I was usually displayed only in numbers by changing the folder in the form xxx / 255th If I stayed a short time in the relevant numeric value, the name of the folder to me was displayed. Unfortunately, hidden and system folders are displayed what Mr. issues when navigating as very annoying.
The playback of a folder, including sub-folders will not support drawing.
Example:
Odnerstrucktur:
Interpret1 / Album1 / Title 1..20
Interpret1 / Album2 / Title 1..20
Interpret1 / Album3 / Title 1..20
Interpret2 / Album1 / Title 1..20
Interpret2 / Album1 / Title 1..20
Would appear in this case, the display first 001/007 (folder Interpret1 = 001)
If one now operates the OK button to play back the entire folder gets you ne error message "empty folder" -Super Trick -
So re-folder menu to open one more turn 002/007 = Album1 the artist folder Interpret1 and press OK - here now starts playback ..
Through these "clever" folder structure is very easy to lose track of where you are currently in. Since one always only the name of the current folder is displayed without Pfadstrucktur.
By the time one is ausreizt the 255 folders very frustrating.
Now I thought, with the app JVC would have the possibility to allow through the much larger display a significantly better navigation - But !! Pustekuchen
Also with the app is only a further jump to the next folder or previous folder, and next / previous track.
Well, it also MP3Tag information during playback then displayed on the screen but I would have much rather ne sensible navigation through my music!
Also, the media playback side of the app always try to stand when I switch pull the car radio through the ignition key is, monster annoying because it starts as soon unintentionally playback on mobile phones.
Conclusion: Anyone who wants to use the radio listening to the radio and CD and want to have a reasonable handsfree in the car for this radio is an absolute must-have. But will listen for each of the sometimes MP3s or the like should definitely buy another radio !!
