Missing "Artist" folder after using DriveSort on USB stick

After messing around with DriveSort on the USB stick I am only seeing a list of Album folders and not the parent Artist folder names. It's probably just a setting I need to redo on DriveSort but I am a bit lost. Basically I just see a list of Album names and not the Artist tree. Everything is in the correct order though. Artist>Album>Track

If the Artist has multiple albums then I'm missing the main "Artist" folder through the headunit. I even reformatted the usb stick and readded the files but no luck.

I think it is normal. Will only see the last folder of the tree view.

Oh, is that just the way the head unit reads folders? You can't have two "levels" deep?

I don't think so...

Seems to be the same on my Sony radio that I have in another car. And the same on my Sony CD player inside the house (that also accept a USB stick).

It is sadly not the same as a MP3 player or a phone or a computer.
