I synced a playlist to a USB I use in my truck and it has worked fine through the last 10 versions but now with version 28 I get an error that the radio cannot read the files.

[davemccorkle]

This happens in 4 different vehicles, VM CC, VM Tiguan, and two other after-market radios.

If it is a USB flashdrive then perhaps the drive has gone bad?

[davemccorkle]

Well, I have tried on 3 different one.  The structure matches as it does on the one that works.  They are formatted as fat32 and the folder structure is there.  I have one that I still created from version 27 and it works fine.  SOmething has change with 28 but for the life of me, I cannot see it.

[whoareyou]

Well, I have tried on 3 different one. 

What format are you converting to / from.  I can try when I get chance, or maybe someone else will chime if this worked for them.

I uninstalled MC on a machine and loaded version 27 and the USB works so this is a 28 issue. 

Please have one of your developers look into it for us.

Thank a million!

Or an antivirus isssue.

I uninstalled MC on a machine and loaded version 27 and the USB works so this is a 28 issue. 

Are you sure the 27 and 28 sync settings are the same?

If you confirm what formats you sync  from / to on MC 28 I can verify if I have same issue with my install.  Otherwise I have nothing to test.

I format the USB fat32, I am syncing the same way by sending a playlist to the USB.  I can see my structure and all the files.  Only MP3 no conversion happening.  My playlists are only MP3.  It works fine with my iPod classic 160. 

Very strange

[whoareyou]

Sorry, I can't replicate this.  I created a smartlist of mp3's and sync'd to a usb.   MP3's have variety of bps rates
They all playback fine via foobar and vlc and JRiver

[davemccorkle]

It should be as simple as you said but it stopped working in 4 of my vehicles. 

I am going to try an SD card next.

MP3's are all 320 as well

[whoareyou]

What if you just copy the same files via windows?

[JimH]

We've seen devices that wouldn't work with certain formats or sizes of album art.

[davemccorkle]

I tried copying the file to the root of the drive, still no luck.  Even just 1 song.

Again the same USB synced with version 27 works fine.
