Qashqai Model: Mk.3 Qashqai - J12 (2021+) New Model

Post by TomVDJ »

I'm using a USB drive (Fat32, 16 GB) to play MP3's in my J12 Qashqai and this works, but the only issue is that after the last MP3 in a folder, it does not switch to the next folder, as it is supposed to do according to the NissanConnect Instruction booklet. It just stops playing after that last MP3, and I have to select another folder myself.

Do other people experience the same when playing an USB drive, or does someone knows how to make the software go to the next folder when all MP3's are played? I used different brands of USB drives, tried formatting them in both FAT16 and FAT32, and different sizes ranging from 8 GB tot 64 GB. Nothing worked so far... :(

Nobody? Is there someone that can confirm the behaviour I'm describing?

Have you got the ALL selected, like in my example below??

I don't have that option. I only have a repeat with a folder icon (it repeats everything in that folder then) or one with a number 1 (it repeats that single song then). Don't have any other options with the repeat button...

It might be to do with the Folder layout...

On mine, I have my MP3's stored thusly:-

Band Name >> Album Title >> then the Mp3's

So for example it would be:-

Asia >> (1982) Asia >> Then the songs (01 - Heat Of The Moment, 02 - Time Will Tell, 03 - Sole Survivor.... and so on)

so, again taking "Asia" as an example, I have their albums stored thusly in the "Asia" Directory:-

(1982) Asia
(1983) Alpha
(1985) Astra..... and so on

Just a thought?

Yes, I store my MP3's Exactly the same way:

- Artist 1
---- Album 1
------- Song 1
------- Song 2
------- Song 3
------- ...
---- Album 2
------- Song 1
------- Song 2
------- Song 3
------- ...
- Artist 2
---- Album 1
------- Song 1
------- Song 2
------- Song 3
------- ...
---- Album 2
------- Song 1
------- Song 2
------- Song 3
------- ...

Etc... No very long names, no special characters... MP3's are all 320 kbps. No idea if this has something to do with it? At this stage, it looks as if I Just have to live with the fact that my version of the software does not switch to the next folder / album. Too bad.
