Have had my Yeti since Jan 1st and with over 5500k on the clock, I am very much enjoying it. A quality vehicle with everything a family needs and fun to drive.

One thing I couldn't work out from the Bolero instructions (very purely written) is how to have the mix function operate across all the MP3 folders I have on the SD card. At present, selecting mix, mixes only the tracks on the selected folder which is not what I want. Ideally, I'd like it to work like the shuffle function on my Ipod, ie randomly mix all tracks on the SD card.

Can anyone help? Many thanks.

I don't think you can do what you want. The folder on the SD card could be compared to a CD. You can mix the tracks but not the folders.

If you drop a couple of individual tracks in the root as in where the folders for albums are, you select an individual track from these Individual tracks and hit mix it will then random across all folders.

Tried this - works perfectly.

Thanks

Useful trick to know; thanks.

Now can you translate that into language a Luddite can understand, please? :S

At present I "copy" a folder, which is one complete CD or download, from "My Music" directly to the SD card. When played it does one "album", all tracks, then moves onto the next.

just put 2 tracks directly onto the SD card where all the folders are. Do not copy over a folder. So when you open the SD card on your computer, you will see 2 tracks and all your copied folders.

Hope that helps....

Nope, still sounds like Yiddish to me!

As said, I'm a Luddite. It needs to be in words, non-technical, preferably of no more than one sylabul.

drag 2 tracks from any album and drop them in the SD drive. You should then have your folders like Queen, and 2 tracks not in a folder like 'I want to ride my bike' or bat out of hell' amongst all the folders which have your albums on.

So, open an album on the computer, drag 2 of the tracks and drop into the SD card main folder.

I'm not using windows (as if you don't at first succeed, you are using windows according to Macdemon),

but attached is a screen shot of what a folder with a track amongst the album folders will look like:

Here I have 1 track, 01 Adiemus.mp3 amongst the folders.

As a mere mortal with only Windows XP I presume my SD card should look like this;-

Sort of, but it should have more music by Free on it.

Yeah, I think so.....

I've only got the one Free album; but 'Free Live' has got to be the best? However Joe Bonamassa is way better ....!

Well, one of the best. It has got great live versions of Woman and Moonshine. The "Free Story" CD has the best of their other stuff from the rest of their albums. I've never heard of Joe Bonamassa, will give him a try.

Hi Stewart,

Tried to PM you but the system says your not hooked up for this (might be that you have to be a 'Freedom' member). Nevertheless;-

Thanks for your tip about 'The Free Story', which I have just bought via Amazon.

I'd had a look last night and found all sorts of boxed sets and re-releases of albums, most of which have 'bonus track' (that I detest as a rule as they mostly sound the same as the main tracks) and was quite confused. The Free Story seems a sensible 'best of' compilation to work with. Thanks for the tip.

As to Joe Bonamassa, I'd not heard of him until a little over 2 years ago and somehow an album popped up on 'our recommendations for you' on Amazon. I bought it on a whim and have not looked back. I now have his full collection of 12 solo albums and several 'live' renditions.

Hard to know where to start, but his latest solo album 'Dust Bowl' was released on Monday and is awesome; start there and work back?

Best wishes,

Guy

Hello Guy,

I was experiencing RL - a trip to the dentist - only a checkup and scale and polish thankfully. I was reading Joe's website and I thought the new album sounded interesting. Off to Amazon etc now.

Did you know that Paul Rodgers - the lead singer with Free, Bad Company and lately Queen- is still playing live? We saw him at Sheffield City Hall a couple of years ago doing mostly Free songs and last year again with a reformed Bad Company. he's still got a great voice and all the women in the audience were swooning over him cos he still looks good b@st$%d :'( Ah, he's touring again in the UK in April.

Tried this out today; works perfectly.

Selected one of the individual tracks, then pressed 'mix' and following tracks then played randomly.

Glad my tip has been of use :yes:
