Anybody try hooking up a Zune player to the USB? I have an 09 Acura TL, cant get the player to work. Please help.

 

I don't think the zune is a supported device via USB, only iphones, ipods, etc.. You'll have to connect using a line-out cable to the audio jack in the armrest.

 

I totally forgot about going that route...Thanks! I wish it would support the Zune player that way I wouldn't have to worry about charging. Anyway, thanks for the quick response!

 

You can still charge it by using the USB and run the line in for the sound....I also wish it was direct so that I can control the volum with steering wheel controls. Love the zune hd!

My tsx had a device that allowed me to plug to the back of the stock radio unit and it worked great. too bad the same company "soundgate" do not currently have it for the 09/10 TL

 

Cool deal, thx! Maybe Acura will come up with some kind of software update that will recognize the Zune player.

 

I doubt they will include Zune support in a software update. I wish they would but doubt it. I love my Zune but the unfortunate truth is that there aren't that many of us Zune lovers out there to warrant Acura or any other manufacture to include it just yet. I was glad soundgate made the adapter and I had it in my previous car. Left it in the car when I traded it unfortunately. Hopefully they decide to update their player to work on the 4GTL. Until that happens I am making good use of the usb feature. Got a thumb drive loaded with music.

 

Doesn't it suck scrolling through and looking for songs from the navi screen through usb? I was doing the usb thing with the ipod... finding specific songs/albums is the worst! I hooked up my zune through the headphone and aux that way i control my music through the zune player... unfortunately, more wires but less headaches.

 

The usb is not too bad for me yet. I've had my TL less than a month, so still getting uses to the new toys. The one saving grace of the usb is that it will read the album and track names while I'm searching. So I can find stuff without having to look at the screen. Oh BTW I hate DRM.
