How Much Memory In Cvp509

I downloaded a Church Hymnal to a USB flash drive and attempted to install it in a Clavinova CVP509.  Got message "Cannot proceed.  Too many files in folder."  The entire hymnal exists on an 8 Gig flash drive and the piano cannot contain it!  Any idea of the memory size and can it be upgraded?  How many files per folder are acceptable? The hymnal contains 671 files. Thank you, C. A. Rhodes [email protected]

I too had this problem... I was not able to "find" the answer anywhere, so, by deductive reasoning, I figured it out...

When you use SONG SELECT, and choose a FOLDER containing SONGS, you will notice that you have up to 8 PAGES (P1, P2, P3, P4... Next Screen is P5, P6, P7, P8), depending upon how many SONGS are in that particular FOLDER... well, I counted on my CVP-509 Screen that it displays 10 SONGS on each PAGE... so... I figured out that if I limited each FOLDER to 80 SONGS, I would be able to utilize all the PAGES P1 - P8... and... it worked!

Another tip... I alphabetized my favorite songs... I had 170 songs total, so I divided it into 3 FOLDERS, to stay within the 80 (or less) per FOLDER rule...

Also, regarding the "internal" memory of the CVP-509... it is not relevant, as you are using a Flash Stick... all of the content you are storing remains on the Flash Stick... it is the CVP-509's software programming designed to display 10 SONGS per PAGE, and 8 PAGES per FOLDER, that forces creative organizing!

Hope this helps you...  Good luck with your 671-song hymnal... you will need to spread it over at least 9 FOLDERS!  If all the songs fit on the 8GB Flash Stick, they will all still fit, even when divided into folders...
