Playing folders in succession

(1/3) > >>

Leprechaun:
Hi all. I hope I'm in the right place;if not feel free to move this to the right place.
I have the xduoo x3 with vortex rockbox. My files are flac and tagged with mp3 tag.
They are organised in albums,I don't make playlists. What I want to do is this: play an album
and leave it going until it finishes,and then go to the next album(or folder). Now what happens is
that the album plays the last track in the folder and then stops.
This is important for me because I want to use the xduoo as a music player while I'm riding my bike(motorcycle). I don't want to stop every time to select another folder. I've tried everything
to do this,without success. My old galaxy s1 can play my folders one after the other; I select any
folder in the list,and it plays all the folders in succession without any further input from me.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks

Leprechaun:
Thanks for the suggestion,but according to the manual,this only works using file browser. My
files are tagged;if I use the file browser it plays them in alphabetical order,not the original order
of the album. As I said, my old Galaxy S1 plays the music the way I want, even my wife's old Sony NWZ 845 does this, my old Sansa clip+ played folders all the way through and continued to the next folders. Is it possible that Rockbox can' t do this simple thing?

saratoga:
The file browser does play albums by file name and folder, not by tag.  The database organizes music by tag.

Which are you using?

Frankenpod:
File browser would play tracks in the original order if you named your track files with the track number at the start of the file name (with leading zeros).  Is this not the normal way to name music files?

There are utilities that will do that in bulk, I think (mp3tag _probably_ does, though I can't remember).  Maybe you could run one of those over your music collection, then use the file browser?
