Hello all, I am getting my Fabia next friday and have got a SDXC 64GB card that I'm about to put all my music on. Does anyone use one successfully in the Bolero using its default exfat format or does it definitely need to be formatted differently such as into fat32?

 

Also does it read files dependant on the date/time they were put onto the card (as i've found some players annoyingly do) or does it look at the file names such as..

 

01 - artist - first track

02 - artist - second track

03 - artist - third track

etc etc 

 

Thanks for your help

Hi contino --

 

the manuals are on here :

http://www.skoda-auto.com/en/mini-apps/owners-manuals/fabia/

 

As a summary - from pages 22 to 27 :

 

(p. 27) Formatting in :

FAT16, VFAT, FAT32,  exFAT,  NTFS

 

(p. 23-24) Sorting:

 

Playback

 

The unit will play the contents of the connected audio source according to the alphabetically sequenced directory and file name.

 

Multimedia database

In the multimedia database the tracks are sorted according to categories.

 

(see manual for graphical instructions which won't copy across here: )

 

›Press the key  MEDIA → ???.
or
›Press the key MEDIA → ??? → » Fig. 11 on page 23.

 

Multimedia database - Information and function keys » Fig. 12
Selected audio source / selected category / audio source folder (move- ment within the folder is done by pressing the function key for the folder) Display of folder / track list (available only for the display of the entire source content - source folders)

 Select the audio source
 Sorting according to the track list name
 Sorting according to the artist's name
 Sorting according to the album name
 Sorting according to the track title
 Sorting according to the podcast name
 Sorting according to the genre type

For playback the category and then the title is selected.

 

Enjoy !

 

Cheers, didn't fancy filling it up and then having to do it all again as has happened in the past...

Thought the biggest was 32gb you could fit?

64Gb formatted as ExFAT working fine in my Bolero as of this morning...

Absolutely fine.. I've got 100+ albums on a 64Gb SDXC card with bags of room to spare.. all I would say is rip to mp3 in the highest quality you can with the least amount of compression and then the decoder doesn't have to do that much work and you'll get less chance of any playback issues, plus better sound quality.

I've got a 128Gb in there - works a treat.

I've used a 64gig and flac files...sounds awesome!
