I got a flash-based 1GB mp3 player, removable SD card is how it stores everything. Only about half of that is filled up, but I get a "Could not create file/directory" error when trying to copy mp3s to it. It's got about 135 files on it right now, when I delete some I can copy new ones onto it, but only up to 135 total.
It's formatted in FAT right now, think that's a problem with FAT itself, or the player?
Edit:
Bah, n/m...found the answer on their site:
"I am not able to put more songs onto it though it has more capacity left. (For example 1 GB SD card)
Please format the SD card in FAT32 format. It is because the format of FAT16 has a limitation of the files supported. "
I wonder why they didn't pre-format the card for FAT32 though, although it's a standard Sandisk card, so perhaps they didn't bundle it until afterwards.
