| 1476712 | 2021-04-24 05:08:00 | Is there a way I can rearrange the music on my PC other than the default, alphabetically. I dont see any manner in which I can rearrange by say, file size. Reason, when I transfer to a memory stick, its nearly always in the same order, so when played on my car stereo, its too familiar. Id like to shuffle or random play, but one car radio doesnt have that option. Thanks John W |

I do that in the work van because the USB playback resets every time the van starts, so I hear the first song all day. If the stereo supports playlists you may be able to make a random playlist but I've never really tried that myself. |

If so, you may be able to sort on those columns, and hopefully once the stick is transferred to the car it *might* just honour that sort order setting. | Paul.Cov (425) | ||
| 1476718 | 2021-04-28 05:29:00 | car radios etc dont use Windows file explorer . :-) You'll need to rename each individual music file . www.howtogeek.com also , some music players see 12 as coming before 2 (sorting via the first number/letter) ,so wont allways play in the expected order That used to be an issue for me with audio books where the chapters would play out of order on media player eg 11 played before 2 . You might be able to create a M3U playlist, and hope the music player knows what to do with it. |
