So I got three of these for my kids bedrooms
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B083R3D8K1?tag=gistpr-20&linkCode=osi&th=1&psc=1
starry night projector and music player, says it can play music off usb, got some mp3s on some low profile usbs and plugged them in, nothing. It also works via bluetooth so i'm wondering if there's a bluetooth transmitter where i can plug a usb in and have it send the audio to all devices that way. They are close together so range shouldn't be an issue if i put it in the hallway. Anything you guys know of that might do this?

Insanity is not the absence of sanity, but the willingness to ignore it for a purpose. Chaos is the result of this choice. I relish in both.

Did you hit the USB selector switch on the unit?

 

Also, a lot of the cheap-ish, and some of the not so cheap USB devices I have seen need you to have the USB as FAT32, AND also have the files in a folder named MUSIC or similar,,, it should tell you in the manual though if this is the case.

Please quote my post, or put @paddy-stone if you want me to respond to you.

Tried the selector button, haven't checked the formatting, I'll give that a shot. Also, no manual
