I wrote a script Make sure this runs on a COPY of your library.
My MP3's are 192 kps. It collapses multiple MP3's into one MP3 per folder (_album_.mp3). What's nice is it does not decode and re-encode which degrades MP3's. No special tools needed. MP3's are unique that you can do this. This only works for MP3's. Some players will only play first song. But the VW CC plays the whole file but will only display meta data tag for first song of each album. You can't jump between tracks if you do this but you can fast/rewind forward. Next/Prev will just jump albums instead of tracks. This was to get past an odd limitation of 2048 files or 500 folder on the VW. It will get errors from cleanup code that runs in each folder first. You can of course mix and match and have some albums with seperate tracks as long as you don't go over 2048 file limit. My music is in F:\VWCC change script below accordingly. Put this in a MERGE_MP3S.BAT file on Windows (I used windows 7, I think it will work XP and up) REM Start Script F: CD \VWCC For /D /r %%i in (*) do ( CD %%i echo %%i DEL _album_._mp3_ DEL _album_.mp3 copy /b *.mp3 _album_._mp3_ DEL *.mp3 REN _album_._mp3_ _album_.mp3 ) CD \ REM End Script -- mswlogo Transporter/DuetController > SPDIF > Meridian G68 > DSP6000, DSP5500HC, DSP5000 "It's the speakers and room stupid".
