Albums on USB stick (Sync)

Hello

My friend has a 2019 Fiesta. I have put some AAC songs on a usb stick for him. There are different albums in different folders. When we put the usb stick in the car, it shows the songs as one long playlist. They are all tagged correctly and the album name and artwork does show when the song is playing. Is there something I need to do to arrange by album?

Thanks

    Sync ignores the folders and goes purely off metadata. You should be able to use browse button and view songs by artist or album if they are tagged correctly.

    They are all tagged. When songs are playing, it shows the name, artist and album, as well as the cover art. When I go to Browse, it only lists the songs. I can’t find anywhere to list as albums.

    I think there should be a new search button on the browse screen

    Have you not got the "browse folder" option at the bottom of the list?

    What version of SYNC are you running?
