USB Music - No Playlist or Genre???

5.7K views 7 replies 4 participants last post by  Lee'sGenesis  
Hi all,
I just moved 1.5TB's of music to a USB drive.
I have playlists listed in the top directory, where music is a directory below.
All playlist directories are relative (meaning relative to where the m3u file is).

Problems:
1) No matter how long I give it to index the USB drive, it never finds the playlist (I saw a post somewhere else that the playlists need to be in the same folder as the music, but you can still organize as artist/album???)
2) Occasionally on a restart of the car, the USB device disappears and I need to plug it in again, and let it re-index.
3) No genre's are EVER shown so they can be selected and then searched

Anybody with a suggestion here?
I learned that if you leave the USB plugged in and start the car it can cause the information to be corrupted.

Also it might be that 1 tb of information is too much.

Also it might be the manufacturer of the USB.

I have a 64gb and even it sometimes doesn't read right or work.

Also what format are your songs?

Good luck
