Don't know whether this has been mentioned before but I have put about 30 odd albums on a memory stick and a lot of them come up individually from the same album, is it possible to just have them all under the sole album title?
Personally I would much rather have a CD player....my old CX5 had both and playing music from the CD was much louder than the USB port.

I agree about not having a cd player. I'm using my ipod, which gives plenty of sound and good quality. Is it ok to keep it plugged in permanently?
I'm not too bothered about a CD player, but I do wish you could upload the music to the storage already available in the Infotainment System.
I'm using a miniature Sandisk USB 64 GB Memory Stick for all my music, I'm sure they are all separated into separate albums/artists.

Sound like you might need to look at the metadata and make sure it is tidy/consistent across all the tracks?David56 wrote: ↑Sat Oct 20, 2018 3:49 pm Don't know whether this has been mentioned before but I have put about 30 odd albums on a memory stick and a lot of them come up individually from the same album, is it possible to just have them all under the sole album title?

Probably sounding dim I know, but what is metadata?Boomer wrote: ↑Tue Oct 23, 2018 9:36 amSound like you might need to look at the metadata and make sure it is tidy/consistent across all the tracks?David56 wrote: ↑Sat Oct 20, 2018 3:49 pm Don't know whether this has been mentioned before but I have put about 30 odd albums on a memory stick and a lot of them come up individually from the same album, is it possible to just have them all under the sole album title?

You can fit 6 eight track cartridge tapes into the arm rest storage, and 4 in the glove box but only 2 where the phone goes!
those stick things for music are the answer.
