Need Playlist help for .MP3s

I have the Nav radio/jukebox with USB port, and I keep all of my music on a USB Thumb drive as .MP3 files in subdirectories, eg. BEATLES/Help, Revolver/MP3 songs. The file system lets you call them up by ARTIST, ALBUM or PLAYLIST.

I have edited the MP3 properties to all have album and artist info, and this is working. I can see them and call them up by ALBUM or ARTIST but can someone explain to me how to create a PLAYLIST?

Tried putting some MP3s in a folder called PLAYLIST and this works on my computer but not in the truck...PLAYLISTS are blank. |So is the truck looking for some special attribute or filetype in order to appear as a PLAYLIST on the truck screen?

I started a thread lasts year, asking a similar question. Here's a link to it. Hope it helps.
The bottom line for me was that Playlists created on my MAC won't transfer over
to the Microsoft based, Ford system. I don't have any answers beyond that.

Oops.

I wrote the above post, then tried to Edit it, and it disappeared. So I figured I had to write
it again.
Well, both appeared in the thread, so I did an edit on this one, erased everything, and
wrote all this in place of it.

At the risk of
being a hijacker: How do you delete a post you've just made?
