Default USB Playlist Issues

1) After a ton of effort, I've figured out how to get music/playlists to the USB stick. But i have one issue. I just noticed that some playlists don't show all of the songs on the playlist. From what I can tell, only the first 199 songs show. Is this s a Mazda Infotainment limit? 199 songs to a playlist?

2) When I have the playlist above with > 199 songs on shuffle, whenever it gets to the first song, it will get stuck and keep playing that song over and over again. Anyone else experience this? Is there a fix? I wonder if it's b/c of the 199 song limit.

2018.

I just realized that the repeating song issue also affects one of my shorter playlists (< 199 songs). For whatever reason, when it's shuffling and gets to the first song in the playlist, it just keeps repeating that song.

I would book it in at the dealership & let them fix it under warranty.

You might have it on repeat in addition to shuffle. I loaded up 300 CDs onto a 32GB USB and it works great. I use mostly MP4s.

FYI, I heard from MazdaUSA and 199 songs is indeed the limit for a playlist.

"Thank you for contacting Mazda USA. We appreciate the opportunity to connect with you. With regards to your USB thumb drive, you are correct 199 songs per playlist is the maximum."
