64GB Limit on SD card?
I have a lot of trouble getting my SD card to work properly. The latest problem seems to be a 64GB limit on content. If I have more than that, Comand recognizes the card, but it says there are no media files on it. When I delete some content to bring it down to just below 64GB, it seems to work. MB likes to keep all the details about their systems that we really need to know secret, so I don't recall reading about this limit. Can anyone confirm this? Also, does this limit also apply to USB drives?

I've recently had the exact same issue with my USB memory stick. Annoying.

Thanks. It's funny how a $200 cell phone can handle a 128GB SD card but my $50,000 Mercedes cannot...

to be fair, the cost of the Merc is about more than a USB stick

And remember the hardware has been released more than 2 years ago. That is like ages for this kind of technology. What would you expect?

Obviously I expect more. I would be willing to bet that the W205 released TODAY doesn't support it either. This is not cutting edge technology. I had that in my cheap laptop many years ago. In any case I expect them to publish their specs. The Manual says they support SDXC cards. SDXC cards support up to 2TB.

Thank you, that is extremely helpful. Right now I have all the files in the root directory. There are only 280 video files, but they total 75GB. I will try to put them in a "video" folder. Could you tell me where you found this information?
