Playback of my USB memory stick starts only
after a
very long wait (around 2 to 3 minutes).Some files supplied with the memory stick
may greatly slow down access to reading
the memory stick (multiplication by 10
of the
catalogue time). Delete the files supplied with the memory stick
and limit the number of sub-folders in the file
structure on the memory stick.
When I connect my iPhone as a
telephone and
to the USB port at the same time, I am unable
to play the music files. When the iPhone connects automatically as
a
telephone, it forces the streaming function.
The streaming function takes the place of the
USB function which is then not usable, there
is a
period without sound of the track being
played with Apple
® players. Disconnect and reconnect to the USB port (the
USB function takes priority over streaming).
Some information characters in the currently
playing media are not displayed correctly. The audio system does not display some types
of characters.Use standard characters to name tracks and
folders.
Playback of streaming files does not start. The connected device does not support automatic playback.Start playback from the device.
