SD card reader


Recommended Posts

Posted

I don't get my truck until this weekend, but I'm trying to stockpile music for the 14 hour drive back. Do the bench seat Silverado's also have an SD card reader? If so, where is it? I don't recall seeing it on my test drives, but I'll admit being distracted by everything else.I think I saw USB ports in the fold up center consol in a picture.

I have the fold down bench seat and I have one. It's right above the USB and AUX ports.

I converted "Star Wars" to a 901mb mp4 file with "handbrake", put it on a USB stick and tried to play it in the truck. It plays great for about the first 2 minutes and then hangs.

 

I'll put it on the SD card next and try that.

I read a few threads on here and across the interwebz and can't seem to get video to work. I had plenty of music videos in mp4 on a 32gb SD that I plugged in and it only showed that one video was on the card. That video played just fine! Noticed that I was formatted to FAT32 instead of NTFS so that was the first thing I tried, same results. Next step is to try a 4GB or 16 GB card

I put my mp4 library on an SD Card and my system doesn't recognize the card. I'm sure I'm doing something wrong. I just haven't looked into it much yet.

I had the same problem with the USB stick, SD card has been working great for me.

Try with only a few smaller video files first to see if that helps. I can't tell for certain, but seems to take longer to display video files when I add more files to the SD card.

Seems like a lot of work just to get it to play. Is this playing full screen for those of you who have got things to play or is it a fraction of the screen size when displayed?

Eventually we will figure out by trial and error what formats, sizes, etc..works for the system but it is unacceptable that the testing has not been done by GM and the resulting operating guidance shared with us. They actually have a support group but when engaged they read you the information that is in the owners manual. I'm sorry, but the overwhelming majority of folks that can afford this vehicle know how to read. Get this fixed

Just an FYI for those of you playing tunes from the card, it will never sound as good as a spinning disc, none of them do.

Not sure if you are pointing to LPs or CDs with that but flash memory plays pretty good unless you need the hiss and skips.

 

For those messing around with what formats work and what doesn't, I posted what I learned in another post

    • WTI futures / speculation is just that. WTI futures <> current 4-7% inflation and national average gas price over $4.00/gallon.   The spot price, at delivery, is currently $87-$95/barrel which is why gas prices remain high.   Edit: oH mY gOd mEnTaL BrEaKdoWn In tHE pOsT aBOve mInE.

    • He does, actually. In another unrelated video he mentions the president called him in the middle of the night to relay some information on a cause (religious based) that he's invested in. Glenn expressed concern that another leftist administration could wield too much power with some procedure the Pentagon was using, classifying certain religions a certain way. Being that he is LDS (Latter Day Saints), he gets hate all the time from ALL over the political spectrum, so he's invested in this. Trump called him back at 5AM to tell him he had made some changes to that classification.   So, yes, they are and have been in contact regularly since the start of the administration. Glenn, of course, always asks his permission before discussing anything on the air.   I already spent an hour or more just searching for these videos. I may have my numbers wrong - I'm not a numbers guy. It may have been a MILLION barrels, not 1.5. The point is, our President, by his actions, gives a crap about America, and US - this is completely OPPOSITE the actions of the prior administration who projected hatred for anyone who wasn't following the left's edicts in lock-step.   Remember, they called January 6th an "Insurrection", when there were ZERO weapons among the crowd, undercover FBI agents agitating the crowd, along with paid leftists acting as aggressors, egging the crowd on in an attempt to whip everyone into a frenzy. It's all been proven.  Pelosi refused Trumps request for more National Guard troops. This smells 100% like an inside job for those with critical thinking skills. Only a handful of guys in the crowd got wrapped up in that, thankfully, but EVERYONE was searched out based on cell phone data, and charges were brought against many. And 6 or so people were locked up and left in solitary confinement for YEARS with ZERO due process!! If you give the slightest crap about our Nation, REGARDLESS of your political leanings, this should frighten you to your core. This is what men suffered, bled, fought, and died against 250 years ago!   This has gone FAR BEYOND left vs. right. This is a  threat to America, and our way of life. This is PRECISELY why Trump, a BILLIONAIRE who could have chosen to take Melania and sit on some tropical island that he could afford to buy himself and RELAX, instead chose to run for office, get hate from literally every corner of the media, get ATTEMPTS on his LIFE constantly, and begin to repair some of the severe damage that's been done to this Great Nation.   I don't know why I bother wasting my precious time here. Everyone has their minds made up. They won't realize we all were correct until it's too late ... after they elect another tyrant that hates America to office (Obama), or another puppet whose administration is secretly running the show behind the scenes (Biden).
    • Hello, Im in a bit of a bind maybe someone could help me out.  We towed our trailer, up a pretty steep incline (395 north of Bishop) done it before no issues. I got to our campground turn truck off, i restarted the truck about an hour later  and check engine light turns on. Found DTC P2C48,  unable to reset.  This morning i removed the plug, there's 12.12v at the plug. Reservoir near firewall is full of coolant, checked for leaks nothing. I dont hear or feel the pump turning on. My dilemma, is nearest dealer  is 4hrs away that has the pump instock. Is it safe to drive? By me checking the available voltage at the connector and not hearing/feeling pump turn on, is it a bad pump? Please help...
    • The figure bandied about is "100 million barrels" so I think a decimal is off somewhere. But that doesn't change the outcome much when the expected flow through the Strait through over the same time should have been more than 2,000,000,000.   So 5%, if that number is even true, and there's sufficient data to believe it's not. Give that man another Fifa peace prize! 5% is less than the flow of a grapefruit-sized prostate blocking the release of cheap lager after a night of bingo.
