MDI niggles

Or, just rename the files with
01-<title>.mp3
02-<title>.mp3
etc

Yes, that would certainly work, but I don't particularly want the numerical prefix to appear on the MDI screen. I'm a Virgoan, ergo pedantry is my raison d'etre.

Sounds like user error

Not sure I follow you there.

It has nothing to do with what order they are copied onto the USB.

I could have faulty recall regarding the original order the MP3s played in (pre-renaming), but I feel certain that it was the same order in which they were dragged individually not en-masse onto the USB-drive.

So until I conduct my experiment over the weekend I can neither confirm nor refute your statement. All of the MP3s were placed in the root directory of the USB drive, no albums/folders/sub-directories. The MP3s on my HDD are in alphabetical order and in various directories. Of course, I could click on the Date Modified column in Windows Explorer and the MP3s would appear in chronological order.

I don't have the MDI, so I can't test anything, but if the files are actually tagged properly, will it display the file name or the MP3 ID Title?
If it displays the title, but still uses the file name as the order, that would resolve your issue perfectly.

I'll need to get back to you on that one, Coreying. The USB-drive is currently at home and I'm not.

Does anyone know if there is a way to set the iPod playback to playlist not songs as a default? It's starting to irk me having to go backwards and search my playlists!

my MDI is pretty hopeless to say the least. It skips between tracks and skips the 1st second of a song most of the time. Not to mention the occasional crackle sound! And yes the voltage settings are correct..
