Returned the lights and ordered the same brand 2-sided ones (same ones jkeaton uses I think).  Fingers crossed that everything works

Doesn't Uconnect use Gracenote? I think it does, and if so, it won't matter how you put the album art on the sd card. If the artwork isn't in the Gracenote database, you'll never have your album art display. At least that's the way it was in the Dart with the 8.4 screen.

Guess I'll stick with my flash drive then and keep doing some trial and error. Frustrating as hell, but I'll try to come up with some answers. (First world problems...ha!)

Well it turns out there are more albums then I thought that come up as Unknown Artist. Also, when I shuffle all songs I consistently get the same album come up about 5 times out of 20 songs about. Getting the same album come up that much when I have 1700+ songs is insane. This is frustrating! How can a car this new get the shuffle feature so wrong?! Do I just need to invest in an iPod, or are these issues still present using an iPod too?

Thanks! I love the blacktop package too, though I don't see many around my area at all. Kinda nice I guess, makes mine stand out a bit more than the others.

Sure is, you know your old Chevys!

Ok, so my update! I loaded a bunch of music on a 32gb flash drive (down from a 64gb one) using the WMP sync method and so far my issues have mostly been resolved. Some albums are still coming up as "Unknown", but not many. I'll just have to play around with the file names to make them all work right (OCD driving me crazy)!

You may be right, the size of the flash drive might be my issue (64gb). The radio I had in my Dart was the 8.4" and my DJ has the 4.3", so I'm not sure how similar the 2 are on the inside. I just assumed that both systems running with Uconnect would behave the same. I'm going to see if I can dig up a 32gb flash drive and give it a try. I'll report back.

That's my wife's actually. Old Biscayne that just needs a little work.

Coming from a Dodge Dart, I used a flash drive that had a fair amount of music on it (~2800 songs). In my 2016 Journey though, I'm having issues getting it to play most of the songs, it's only showing 240 songs when I try to put it on shuffle. Even when I go to play a specific song, most times it won't play at all even though it shows up in the folder. What am I missing here? I figured coming from Uconnect in my Dart to Uconnect in the Journey would be a smooth transition, but it's not going that way with my music. Any help is appreciated!

Thanks everyone! So far so good! I put a lot of miles on my vehicles (~25,000 a year) so I'm hoping for a ton of trouble free miles ahead of me!
