interesting.. it may be a player limitation not just a file ssystem constraint.
There is most definitely a limit. I have mine organized thusly:

Music\Genre\artist - album - track# - song title.mp3

In folders that have more than 256 songs, it only loads the first 255. Basically this is every single folder, since each genre folder has more than 1k songs in it.

What's even more frustrating here is that it's not even the first 255 songs in the directory. Only one of my Foo Fighters album show up, and it's not the first, nor the last in the list. And the Wolfmother album shows up, while a slew of albums that should be alphabetically sorted earlier aren't there.

I don't understand it, but it definitely seems a limitation of the BRZ Nav unit.

This wouldn't be an issue, to be honest, but it seems like the "Random -> Folder" option doesn't play sub-folders. And if a folder only has sub-folders, you can't select that folder for "Random" - there has to be a song in it.

*THIS* is why I want an iOS/Android type player for the car.
