I plugged a usb thumb drive that has albums/folders on it. It was playing randomly (through all, maybe alphabetical?) soi found i could search and pick an album: in my case, Brahms' piano concerto #2, with all 4 movements in order, as you'd want.

However, once you select an level ("all songs", or 1 album like above, etc.) you cannot re-browse while car is in motion... "for your safety, disabled...". So a 3 hour highway ride and I had to pull onto shoulder to get out of Brahms #2 looping over and over. I tried searching by voice both with Alexa or built-in search just in case, and no luck. Basically I cannot hear a whole piece (3-4 movements). Browse "all" lists hundreds of track unclearly (the albums/folders are clear) and in undesired order: you cannot choose smartly.

I don't think there is any way around this but essentk\ially I am limited to 4 tracks (movements) until I pull the car over to the side of the road!

If anyone knows a way around this (and I tried), please let me know.

It was reported early on the system played USB drives in filename alphabetical order (not necessarily artist/album/track). Was this ever fixed? I don't really use USB drives.

I can choose a folder when not driving, and it plays in order, but only that folder once moving: you cannot switch to tracks on anothr album. . The default may be alphabetical by track, not sure, but it's not how I want to listen, ends up being kind of random.
