Brenton Haas asks:
I have a 1TB Seagate hard drive. On it is a music folder with over 3000 songs in Alphabetical order. When I plug my hard drive into my Blu Ray player or TV the folder stops at the letter K. All songs starting with L-Z are now showing up although they are still there when I plug it back into the computer. Can I fix this so all files show?

February 28, 2012Maybe your BD player makes an automatic page break after XXX lines and you have to switch to a secondary site or it only supports a limited number of entries per directory.
You could try to devide them into subfolders e.g. A-I, J-R, S-Z and see if all files within each folder show up.
I can’t think of anything besides that ~ the only other option would be file type compatibility but it’s highly unlikely that all files from A-K are in a supported format and the remaining from L-Z are not.

February 29, 2012Hello, Are these folders subfolders of a music folder? maybe there is a limit on how many subfolders you can have in a folder? What if you sort the music by artist? Or kind of music? I know it could be a pain to sort them all out but it is worth a try.
