Sorry to read about your various problems with your Clip Sport.
Internal Memory problems:
If the folders and files are messed up on the player itself, maybe use the device’s internal Format command to give you a fresh start. This command will erase all your personal files in the device memory. The device will recreate all the required folders.
SD Card Problems:
You can use FOLDER mode for the device to play mp3 files inside each folder (saved under the Music folder).
Make sure the first 8 characters of the mp3 folder names will clearly define the contents of each folder ,
You can use CARD mode for the device to play mp3 files inside each folder (saved under the Music Folder.) CARD mode is highly dependent on your ID3 tags (V 2.3). Make sure the first 8 characters of the album names will clearly define the mp3 files in each album.
MUSIC / CARD mode mp3 file limit:
Firmware 1.28 allows the device to create two music databases (internal/ SD card).
Each database can handle a maximum of 4000 music files.
If your SD card has more than 4000 music files, you can find all the music files using FOLDER mode.
