Is it possible to use media folders across 2 usb memory sticks at the same time?

I have a car audio head with 2 USB ports. I can therefore plug in 2 memory sticks.  However, I can only get Rocket Player to recognise one of them.

Is it possible to manually add a media folder on the second usb media stick and scan it?

Rocket Player should auto detect anything the device manufacturer properly supports. If that isn't happening, go "menu->my library->Select media folders->Add Path", and you can type in the path to the other SD card if you can figure out where it is. Then Rocket Player should scan that path, and show it in the select folders area, etc.

Thanks Justin

I’ve managed to do it. I used a file manager that gave the properties for a file on the second usb stick. This gave me the path to the file. Using that I managed to input a path into Rocket Player that found the files on this stick while maintaining the files on the other stick.

What about a usb stick (256 GB SanDisk USB3 in my case on a Pixel 6a) for which Astro File Manager lists the path as /USB drive/Music. Adding to Rocket gets me the "path does not exist" error every time. No problems with VLC but prefer Rocket interface. Is this doable? Will attach storage functionality be added? Is my path wrong?
