Help with USB music Jaguar XF 2017
Discussion
Please help, I'm pulling (if I had any) hair out!
I cannot get my music usb to be recognised/played via source.
I've played around with various settings including tagging, naming conventions, root, folders, bit rates etc but no joy.
I'm using a 64Gb usb flash drive.
Any pointer on what I need to do would be appreciated.
Thanks

Make sure the USB stick is FAT32 formatted and not exFAT, which usb sticks tend to be.
Thanks bunchofkeys, you're a legend! I downloaded some software and converted USB to FAT32 and the car now recognises the flash drive.Quick question - can I simply now copy over onto the USB drive all my music folders so that I have root, music folder, mp3 files? Or do I have to stick all the mp3 files directly onto the root?
Thanks

It uses folders and you can navigate through them. Subfolders too, I have a 32GB stick of music sorted into folders by Artist them Albums.Quick question - can I simply now copy over onto the USB drive all my music folders so that I have root, music folder, mp3 files?

You can also get a 30 pin iPod interface to bluetooth adapter for these cars, which is dead handy.

This is the thing I used in my XK. I don't have the Audio jack, so can't use the bluetooth audio streaming stick I had from my previous car.
It's not cheap, but it works flawlessly.
