The limit is for both combined.

 

I've only run across two possible alternatives:

1. Mod an iPod Classic 120 or 160 GB model, swapping out the HDD with an adapter and a higher capacity SSD.
2. Set up a wireless DLNA media server and use smartphone as player (requires DLNA-player capable app).

I have not tried either.

 

Regarding latter, I believe there are several models of wireless portable HD's which offer this capability out of the box.

 

Found some info on the web about modding iPod.  I purchased the adapter but not the SSD.  No plans for immediate future.

 

It's been awhile since I researched either avenue so can't offer any further details.

 

Currently I download a ~1,000 song playlist of lossless files to my 120GB iPod Classic, and that only uses up about 30GB.  Update as necessary.... but since I am not into new music, that's not very often.  I have over 17,000 files in the "active" directories on my computer, and probably a total over 50,000 if I include library directories I have obtained through others (which include a lot of low bit-rate and obscure-artist files I choose not to tolerate in my active directory).

 

The real question here is how much availability do you really need in your vehicle?

 

I have close to 600GB of music (flac/320kbps mp3)...when I put a quarter of my collection onto a HDD the index scan freezes.

 

I was hoping I can fill each(sd card+usb hdd) having a total of 30,000 files

Any alternatives for those with more than 15,000 files/1,500 folders?

Can I have 15,000 files/1,500 folders in both SD Card/USB HDD...total 30,000 files/3,000 folders?

or is the max 15,000 files/1,500 folders between both SD Card/USB HDD?

If you are going to use a SDCard above 32 gb, it will come formatted xfat, and you will need to delete all files, including hidden files, and format to fat32. I use a PNY 256gb SDCard and have so for 6 months or so. Warning, if you continually add and delete files on the larger reformatted sdcard, you may encounter corruption. Best thing to do is put your music on there and leave it for read only. I use my sdcard for ripped movies and converted iTunes movies(to remove the protection apple puts on them) and play the movies on the headrest monitors for the kids. My music is on solid state drive in an external usb drive hooked up to usb2, since i use iPhone. If you are using android phone, you would want to hook up drive to usb1 and phone to usb2. 

Just know that Pioneer supports up to 32 gb sdcard, because they do not support xfat, and all sdcards above 32gb are formatted xfat. 

 

 

Which format setting do you suggest for someone who wants 256gb SDCard + continuously add music?

Has anyone else experience this bug where you play a flac file from a folder all the files skip through onto the next folder?

Will make a donation.....not sure if he's still taking donation

1)I am currently on 1.06/NEX4000 will I need to be on 1.08/NEX4000 to install 1.03/NEX4001?

2)If I install 1.03/NEX4001....are you saying bluetooth audio from my phone would not work?

Is there anything else that would not work?

3)would there be a method to violate the album art pixel size limit from 600 pixels?

Great work guys
