How To Fix PlayStation 4 Firmware USB Music Player Issue: Unable To Detect USB & More

Everybody had been buzzing about the brand new PlayStation 4 Firmware is finally live now. As expected the firmware adds many anticipated features including Share Play, where one can share gameplay with a friend who might not have the copy of the same game. But it was only recently known that the quality of friend's gameplay will be capped with 720p even if the original game runs at 1080p.

The other interesting feature added to the PlayStation 4 Firmware is USB Music player. Its features are: It's not possible to copy music files from USB to the internal hard disk of the PS4. The tile of the USB music player will be shown exclusively if the connected USB storage has a "Music" folder. Also, it cannot be used at the same time as Music Unlimited. Tracks played by the music player won't be heard while livestreaming and in videos recorded by the PS4.

This is how the USB Media Player looks like:
