Sirius/XM is great, but it's not the best sounding music. An iPod is the way to go. Got my wife the iPod touch and since it's wireless it updates her song list when it attached itself to our wireless network. No pulling it out since it picks it up fine in the garage.

I bought an extra iPod just for the car. It gets updated, added to, and put right back in the car. Look on apples site and take a peek at refurbished iPods if you want to get one on the "cheap".

If you are getting CDs from someone you can use any number if free programs to convert them to digital format. iTunes is one, there are many more.

You can arrange the music on your flash drive into separate folders for artists, playlists, etc.

The car doesn't have Windows media player and neither does the computer. Not sure what Windows media player has to do with how the Camaro reads USB mass storage devices. |

I load my USB drive from a PC using WMP works great & indexes the drive to work in my Camaro & Silverado. The Camaro is a 2011 and the Silverado is a 2014 with My Link.

Can anyone shed some light on how WMP would affect this scenario? Currently I have a Debian Linux workstation as well as the wife. All of our servers are Linux based except for two 2012r2 domain controllers. Most servers are virtual anyway on a pair of ESXi hosts. I think that I do still have an 2008r2 physical acting as my VMC so if I HAVE to, I'll go back to the server room and plug this USB into there...But that's is laborious for as often as I may wish to change music. Question...Does this 2012 stereo act as an iPod control? I'm going to have to purchase an iPod/iPad mini to control the NightOwl light main module and I've heard that itunes can update over the wifi so I wouldn't even have to remove it from the car. Criticism and suggestions appreciated. |

Also, have you tried using the SEARCH function from the menu? What happens when you do that? Another issue may be the stick you're using, depending on how many files you have on it. I use a 32-gb drive, and it works like a champ.
