Hello all, I just purchased a used DX160 and am very happy with it but am coming to the conclusion that it is not possible to edit album art on the Mango player, am I right ? I have an album loaded on the player and the back cover of the album shows as the art and I've been trying to change it...

Hello all- I am using the Sony NWZ-A846 and it is a stunning player but all my album art seems to be hit or miss quality wise. Does anyone know if there is a pretty good standard as far as what resolution to use (I am varying around 300x300), any of my larger files just come out messy and...

Cheers for that information swoon !! I actually downloaded Media Monkey and transferred all my music files to it but all the files came up as Media Monkey audio as opposed to MP3 or WMA which they were initially. I did not know if that was actually just the name they give the files and they...

Hello all- I have the S30 player which I like alot but am wondering if there is another music application other than WMP 11 to get music (with album art) onto the player ? Cheers for any help !!! LL-

Amy Winehouse is just another corporate-music manufactured product. The entire "rehab" persona is just a part she is playing as a corporate performer. Everything that is done by her and for her was simply manufactured as another money generating music tool, the drug/alcohol angle was started to...

Oh, just thinking... Since I do not have the original MP3 files but have these CD's that are basically the same sound quality how could I now store these audio CD's on a hard drive with no loss in sound quality, would I have to use a certain format ? Cheers again, LL-

OK now I see. Cheers for all the information guys. I was not able to save most of the original MP3 files simply because I had no computer or storage device and I was downloading al of those files at a local internet cafe and burning them onto CD right there. The other bad part is that I am...

Hello all- I have been downloading alot of full albums off blogsites recently and then transferring the original MP3 files into regular CD's (CD audio format) for playing on my home CD player. I am wondering about this CD audio format though and exactly what is it equal to ? If I have a full...

The whole thing is kind of confusing as there are so many options, I hear terms like lossless, variable bitrate among others and it's a bit intimidating. I have never been very concerned with sound quality until recently when something seem to click and now I am more interested in fewer songs...

Cheeers for that psyllium- Honestly I was just looking to do a mass conversion simply thinking that MP3 would be a more universal format as opposed to WMA. I have a Toshiba gigabeat and am looking to get something new and figured MP3 would be more widely accepted in whatever I decided to get. I...

Hello all- I have around 2000 songs (WMA 128kbps) in my "Music" folder on my laptop and am wondering if there is a program I can download that will let me do a mass conversion of these files into MP3 ? Thank you for any help !!! Cheers, LL-

Cheers for the help guys, I did not realise that X5 came in 60GB. It looks to be exactly what I'm after but a question about the battery life; It states approx. 14 hours but would that apply to even the 60GB player ? I figured the larger player may also have a larger battery and longer life ...

Hello all- I have a Toshiba S30 which I happen to love but find myself filling it up rather quickly so would like to get a larger capacity player. I would like something 60GB plus, I have no interest in video so the screen is not a priority, and would prefer it to be as portable as possible...

A-ha that's it. That was easier than thought. Cheers for that ! LL-

Hello all- I have been reading about formats and have been hearing of people tout these terms (ATRAC Lossless, Gapless playback, etc...) but I am unsure of what these terms gapless and lossless really mean ?? Are these things that I should know in regards to sound quality, bitrate space, etc...

Hello all- I have 4G 20GB iPod that I would like to sell but would like to first empty all the songs from the device but have only figured out how to delete individual songs and with about 2000 songs it would take a while so is there a way to at least delete entire albums or all songs/albums at...

What happened was this was a recording by a standard CD recorder of a vinyl record and when the guy with the record played the LP to record it the pitch on his turntable was set very high and the CD records exactly what it hears, in this case a 33 1/3 rpm record played at around 39 rpm. Now...

Do some research into punk from California in the late 1970's. There were some fantastic groups at that time that you would probably like. The Urinals The Germs Crime The Weirdos The Avengers just use those names and it should branch out and also pick up anything on the label Dangerhouse...

If you are interested in something a little less long winded than many horn based artists check out some jazz vibraphone players; Johnny Lytle and Dave Pike are two of the absolute best and many of their recordings are not terribly difficult to find. LL-

Thank you for the information nikon... I have also heard of CD players with a pitch control so I am under the assumption that there must be something available I guess it's just a matter of searching. I have heard of audacity but have never downloaded it so I will give it a try. Thanks...

Hello all- I recently picked up a CD that was made from an old vinyl album but it seems that when the LP was played it was spinning at around 39rpm or so and now when I play the CD in a normal player the music obviously sounds a bit sped up, nothing drastic but I would like to have it sounding...

OK, now I know what you guys are on about. I did not know the Gigabeat was discontinued, that explains why the price of mine was so low. I have been pretty lucky with most of my gadgets, I baby them and have never had any problems that I could not work out myself. Nothing major that would...

leo5111, that's the one I was looking for !!! Cheers for that mate !!!!!!! pds.. no the Gigabeat is alive and well, you must be thinking of 8 track !! LL-

Hello all- I just purchased a Toshiba Gigabeat S30 which I happen to love so far, good sound and have had no problems at all using the Windows program to convert, organise, etc... A couple of weeks ago I came across a website that was pretty much dedicated to the Gigabeat series, talked about...

Hi MIKEp- Thanks for your reply. That thing looks cool but honestly I was wondering if there was a player in something like the size of an iPod or Sony NW-HD.. series with a small single built in speaker. I realize the sound quality would be crap but it would be kind of cool to just have it...
