It's not my issue to claim detection of different devices
proves detection of an MP3 player recording. Rather, it is
your burden to be specific with the claim that it's possible
by showing even one reproducible example.

We have no reason to believe a scenario like the OP has (too
vaguely) posed, would allow identification of a device as an
MP3 player that is recording. Identifying the existence of
"some" kind of device, then a search uncovering this device
and a physical examination to determine that it is recording
(looking at the screen or lights) is another matter.


I can clarify whatever you are unsure about if it helps.


The specific scenario should have been, needed to be
mentioned at the opening of the thread. Because it wasn't,
the time spent on the thread wasn't very productive and many
have lost interest.

Actually it is only for those who need extra info that I can provide
clarification. Most others here don't seem to have that need.

There are devices you can use that will detect devices that may be used to
record your conversations. You will not be able to identify that it is an
mp3 player until after a physical search.
So by using this device that basically will tell you that the person has
some form of electronic device on them, be it a cell phone or mp3 player.
You can then use the knowledge of knowing they have this device to direct
what you say or do not say
You may want to spend a few bucks and talk with a local private investigator
about your concerns. He may also know where to obtain these type of
scanners.
