Help a Luddite with MP3 stuff....

The audio forum is not interested in the stock unit, so that's why I posted here.

My '17 86 has the PT546-00160 (Pioneer?) head unit. My music source is a USB stick formatted to FAT32. The music itself is from CD's ripped to WAV files, then converted to MP3 using DB Poweramp. All the ID3 tags but artist and album are stripped from the files. The files on the USB stick are in artist\album order.

All I want to be able to do is to have this utter POS play ALL the music on the USB stick, not just the selected album endlessly unless I select something else. Press play, forget about it. I tried making a playlist using PlayListCreator3. The HU does not see the playlist.

Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? I have read the manual several times, with no luck. Is this junk even capable of continuous play from album to album? Is there some magic dust I don't have? Some different arrangement of files on the USB stick?

The HU my '13 FR-S could do all this, why can't this POS?
