FAT also has file limits in the root folder, something like 512 files.
The size if the card shouldn't matter, more so the size of your content and how many music files you have. You could try reformatting your card and copying the music back. You could also try reflashing the MCU. You can't flash the same version as you currently have, so flash to an older version and then flash back to the current version. Do this without the card in your media slot, and insert it back after you finish flashing and the unit has booted into radio. Remember an MCU flash resets your radio stations and equaliser settings.
I have similar issues with a 16GB SD card formatted with FAT32. Works fine most of the time, but if I remove the card to add tracks etc, it takes a few goes slotting it back in before the unit recognises it and can read it. I also get the 12:15-12:15 error regularly and have to power cycle the unit to clear it. It is a good idea to try out a different SD card to be sure, but my feeling is that it is not necessarily a problem with your card as several others have mentioned having the same issues. I am patiently awaiting new firmware to hopefully resolve these intermittant but annoying issues.
Please read my previous posts on the issue, as I said I have many customers with RVC and they don't have this issue - I would need to know more details e.g. did you use a relay switch, have you tested the connection etc. The software is designed so that as long as there is a feed in the RVC slot, the RVC image will override everything else. So if you have intermittent issues, the cause would be the RVC signal. It's possible for the hardware to be faulty in detecting the signal but the most likely cause by far is the wiring.
I think this issue has to do with the unit's memory of last song played - you may have noticed the memory sticks even after a full firmware flash. Similarly if you changed the contents of the SD card, the memory may not change and could get corrupted. This is why I recommend a MCU flash (which clears the other media settings) with your SD card out of the media slot. After MCU flash is complete and your unit boots into radio, THEN insert the card again and it should start its song memory from new.
I've raised the issue with Audiosources but as I said the recent weeks they have been focused on the new unit so any updates would come some time after the new unit is released. By then they could also have a long list of things they need to do and this particular fix may or may not happen in the next firmware release. I will be pushing for results best as I can, as always.

Its not hardware related, at least in my case. I am currently conversing with Audiosources and they are making me up a new update to try to improve the issue.
Im guessing a lot of your customers just havent recognised the issues as such or havnt posted here again.
I will post my outcomes if any in a later post.
