Good to see you here Arnold, but my loudlink doesn't work like expected from the first day (about 6 months ago) and there is still no solution.. Tried everything, Firmware update, copying files manually or with Loudlink Explorer..

Maybe you can help me here..

This is the text on the loudlink Website:

Firmware version 1.1.0 for Loudlink LLK-LTHX models.

What's the new in the firmware version 1.1.0?

Subfolder capabilites, from now Loudlink can handle cca. 10000 Songs.
(99 Albums x 99 Track)
Simply copy Albums to the SD card!
CD1 - select Album
CD2 - CD5 select Mp3s within selected Album
CD6 - select AUX

Minor bugfixes.

In my Thesis with Loudlink LLK-LTHX it is like that:

CD1 - CD1
CD2 - CD2
CD3 - CD3
CD4 - CD4
CD5 - CD5
CD6 - AUX (cause I selected it in the Loudlink Explorer as AUX)

I used the newest Version of Loudlink Explorer to prepare the Card..

How can I get the functionality stated on the website?

Are you sure firmware updated and up to date?

I recommend to format SD card , which size <=2Gybte
Copy unzipped fw.bin file to the empty card

Wait while LED on loudlink goes off. Sometimes takes minutes, depends on Thesis when go to stand-by.
Insert SD card with firmware.
And after around 20seconds blinking goes off again.
If firmware is up to date, goes off immediately.

Copy few folders mp3 inside to SD card.
Change radio to CDC, and switch to CD1.
track1 means 1st folder on SD
track2 means 2nd folder on SD
etc

When folder selected switch radio to CD2, and whole folder will be played.

Please let me know the result!

Hey Arnold,

Firmware update finally successful!

I switched the key off and even locked the car but still had to wait around 5 minutes until the red led had gone off (no led activity at all). Then I inserted the SD (128MB and only fw.bin on it) and update process worked for about 5 seconds.. Changed SD with 32GB SDHC and it works like you described!

After all great device but you should update the description at:

Would have saved me a lot of Trouble

Best Regards
Stefan
