Compact Flash card and duplicate folders

I have been playing with the CF card reader. I took a CF card, reformatted it and have been writing artist folders and dragging and dropping albums. Here is the exact order from a reformatted CF card.

New folder named "ABC Artist"
Drag album "1" into ABC Artist folder
Drad album "2" into ABC Artist Folder
Drag album "3" into ABC Artist folder
Drad album "4" into ABC Artist Folder
Insert into car

What I get is I get when it reads it

Album 1
Album 2
Album 1
Album 2
Album 1
Album 2
Album 1
Album 2
Album 3
Album 4
Album 3
Album 4
Album 3
Album 4
Album 3
Album 4

Anybody have any ideas? I have reformatted to clear old data off. I have checked folders and they only contain one copy of the album. When I open the folder on the cars sound system, there is no repeat of tracks.

I just can't seem to get it to only read each folder once.

I think you have copied these folders into sub folders. The system does not display the sub folders as nested.

for example you have

-folder1
___-folder 2
___-folder 3
_______-folder 2

the system would show

folder 2
folder 3
folder 2
