75 plate MG4 Trophy USB stick reloads every time I get in the car.

My MG4 Trophy reloads the contents of the USB stick every time I get in the car. Why doesn't it retain it? I have about 600 tracks in folder by artist. Once loaded it seems to work ok, but it 5 minutes to load.

What format are the tracks stored in? I have about 1,600 tracks all stored in .wav format without any issues for my Trophy to access as and when needed.

My directory structure is Artist/Album/Track, so no one directory is too large, with 72 directories at the artist level.

Mine is a similar structure, but 01, 02, 03 .... prefix to each file in MP3 format. Have to set a particular folder or it plays them from all over the USB.

Hi they are MP3 files in folder by artist, then by album. The usb stick is a Sandisk 128GB with about 75GB free space. It's formatted as ExFat.

Artist/Album/Track with tracks in 01..., 02..., 03... format mp3 files used to work for me in the left-hand USB port. 256GB Sandisk with 17,000 tracks would have been impossible without it retaining the stick contents. I have a vague memory that it only worked in the front left-hand USB port.

I have Artist/Album/Track, but no track numbers, just names. It's on a 128GB Sandisk stick, formatted EXFAT. It just won't retain the stick contents.
