Blood Angel Posted February 12, 2004 #2 Share Posted February 12, 2004 Depends on whether its a mp3 player, or just a simple flash drive. If its a mp3 player like samsung yepp, then i would advise against storing anything other than music on it. Most mp3 players convert the music file into a compressed .sm file, i wouldn't recommend using it as storage for the simple reason that it converts into a file that is typically used for music. It may convert the file to .sm but i don't think it would convert back to the original. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fulltimekiller Posted February 13, 2004 Author #3 Share Posted February 13, 2004 my mp3 doesnt convert the file to .sm it still the same when i plug it in the compuer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil*THE*VEEID Posted February 15, 2004 #4 Share Posted February 15, 2004 interesting i guess it depends on the software which comes with the mp3 storage. I wonder if the ipod is good for other storage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phantom Posted February 15, 2004 #7 Share Posted February 15, 2004 Nothing will happen. You can just use it for any file type. (You're not American, right? I don't want to get sued...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xenojjin Posted February 16, 2004 #8 Share Posted February 16, 2004 I would suggest checking the type of mp3 player you have for troubleshooting in the manual . Chances are , this is a bad idea . Some mp3 players do however allow certain files other then mp3 ( mainly the ones that have game programs on them ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fulltimekiller Posted February 18, 2004 Author #9 Share Posted February 18, 2004 i just put some exe and some picture file it didn't do anything my mp3 just ignores it. I strongly recommend don't try it on your mp3 i shall not held responsible if you tried it and it gets damaged. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
odinsupreme Posted February 18, 2004 #10 Share Posted February 18, 2004 I dunno if you already thougth of this, change the file extension from your .exe to .mp3 then using this MP3 player as a file carrier should work, right? Odin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fulltimekiller Posted February 19, 2004 Author #11 Share Posted February 19, 2004 yea it works putting other file on it even if i dont put .mp3 on it all i have to do is connect it onto the computer to see that file. I just cant see it on the mp3 it only read the music file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
