QUESTIONANSWER SOLUTION
Playback of my USB 
memory stick starts only 
after a very long wait 
(around 2 to 3 minutes). Some files supplied with the memory stick may greatly slow down 
access to reading the memory stick (multiplication by 10 of the 
catalogue time).
Delete the files supplied with the memory stick 
and limit the number of sub-folders in the file 
structure on the memory stick.
When I connect my iPhone 
as telephone and to the 
USB port at the same 
time, I am unable to play 
the music files. When the iPhone connects automatically as a telephone, it forces 
the streaming function. The streaming function takes the place 
of the US
b function which is then not useable, there is a period 
without sound of the track being played with Apple
® players. Disconnect and reconnect to the USB port (the 
USB function takes priority over streaming).
Some characters in the 
media information are not 
displayed correctly while 
playing. The audio system does not display some types of characters.
Use standard characters to name tracks and 
folders.
Playing of streaming files 
does not start. The peripheral device connected does not support automatic play.
Start the playback from the device.
The names of tracks and 
the track length are not 
displayed on the screen 
when streaming audio. The Bluetooth profile does not allow the transfer of this information.
