SD Card Organization

Kralik · 08-31-2009, 01:20 PM

Is it possible to organize the SD card similar to the internal card so that books are in one folder, music in another, etc? I've tried adding the "AudioBooks, Books, Pictures" directories, but the jetBook displays them when I load the book browser. I would like it to automatically use Books for Books, AudioBooks for Music, etc. as it does on the internal card without displaying the directories themselves. Make sense? Doable?

Good idea! I think it will be very helpful.

So... it doesn't work that way yet?

It's a feature I'd like to see but I don't think we'll see it work that way anytime soon.

Well, for now I'm dumping a bunch of my mp3's in the root folder, since the jetBook doesn't sort the audio by folders anyway. That way I don't have "empty" folders in books.

I'm doing the same thing myself. Which brings up a question. I remember FAT filesystems have a hard limit to the number of files/directories one can have in the root of a disk. I vaguely recall that for 16 bit FAT that limit was something like 256. Anybody know what it is for FAT32 or whatever the file system is for these SD Cards?
