People can dance around it but he did lie and he did miss the deadline. Most of the stuff he promised was supposed to be in 8.0 last October then he promised it for last December as "8.1". So here we are in April of the following year with a new view of "favorites" in the media player and a dumb drawing pad. This is beyond his propensity to exaggerate and over promise...this is not telling the truth.

Can't disagree. I ended up being way wrong about "8.1". Here's hoping for 8.2....

Can't believe they still haven't fixed shuffling. Now every time I get in my car I have to smash away at the "Next" button for like 2 minutes so I can listen to something new...

Or for the time being you can just play all songs in alphabetical order. At least you're guaranteed not to play the same song again unless you put in the same track in twice in which case you know you need to get rid of a track.
Which puts us right back to where we were prior to shuffle and guarantees one "play order" for all of eternity.

Would be nice if they could even implement some simple playlists! I mean how much code could there be to do something like that.

Another old bug that won't go away is the re-scanning of USB drives. I took a trip last weekend and supercharging triggered USB drive re-scan two out of three times. No music for the next 30 miles.
Tesla's s/w efforts are struggling across the board. You'd think Elon would have understood the importance of s/w, but the record reflects that it's another case of a h/w company that can't produce software. Until they can produce the basic operating s/w for the car (i.e., AP2, M3, etc.) we should not expect anything to happen in the "accessory" apps. Elon has zero credibility when it comes to his s/w forecasts.
There is not a single CID app that evidences parity with what we have come to require from software in other contexts, like smartphones. And forget about seeing any innovation. All of the apps are pathetic and I routinely point that out to people who ask about the car. I tell people that the car has to be supplemented with a web site from a college student (EVTripPlanner) and smartphone apps.
Elon is a master at selling the sizzle, but caveat emptor, first cut open the steak!

I agree, the supercharger rescan bug is frustrating... And to make in worse, neither support nor 2 service centers acknowledge it is an issue.
This has never happened to me, regardless of whether I'm supercharging or using HPWC/UMC. Are there specific conditions required to trigger this bug?

Difficult to say as it doesn't trigger a re-scan every time. It doesn't seem to be related to SOC.
I was supercharging twice yesterday and did not notice the rescan issue. Then again, not on 8.1.

My solution (well, hack) for this problem is to go to songs view, pick a random letter of the alphabet, scroll down a few songs, and start there. The randomizer has a much lower chance of getting stuck in a rut.
Regardless of the first song I actually select, the second and subsequent songs are always the same ones in the same sequence. I have given up and reverted to using alphabetical order - at least I don't encounter that same set of songs each time

So I'm on AP HW1, and haven't gotten any update to 8.1 yet....anyone who has gotten 8.1 know if when browsing USB using folders view, if songs are still sorted alphabetically by song title? This bug is the bain of my listening existence....who listens to an album that way?

Check my detailed post upthread #1109. Specifics are covered there. Net is, 8.1 didn't address the bug.

Well, yesterday the MS pulled a new trick. Normally, I have USB "Loading" all during my morning trip to work, and I have music on the trip home. Yesterday, it was "Loading" on the way to work, and "Loading" again on the way home. No music at all yesterday.
Bu the good news is, Elon has tweeted, "Feature coming soon that allows one touch access to all discovered Tesla Easter eggs."
Jesus.

I wonder if we can have an Easter egg that fixes the media player.....
