Just put on "Atlanta" by Porcupine Tree... Sorry lads, I'm not available for testing until I'm done listening to this gem of a live recording. 
 
That's something I've noticed with the DX100 - It makes me stop what I'm doing and just sort of sink into the music. Please don't tell my boss.

So this little guy CPU is a RockChip RK2918...

Arm A8 @1Ghz. 2d/3d gpu built in

Definitely NOT underpowered... :/

But I was correct


The "firmware" is separate than the OS in this guy. Now to find put base memory.....

[size=medium]Just got this in from Ibasso:-[/size]
 
[size=medium][size=12pt]"We are testing our new firmware. Hopefully, we can release it on this weekend. Otherwise, we will release it on next weekend."[/size][/size]
 
[size=medium][size=12pt]Why it has to go from one weekend to another is a mystery but there you go![/size][/size]

OK.
So there are two music players (wow... I am not going to even start on how f'ing silly that is). One plays just one album without proceeding to the next. The other has a sort or problem with descending sort on number.
Roffensian and sorrensiim
Your tracks.. anyway to make a copy of an album and replace the spaces with underscores?
Example
01 - Pretty Little Thing.flac
01-Pretty_Little_Thing.flac
Do this for two albums... along with artist (if needed) and album title (if needed).
The other question... are the two music players custom? Or is one based on Google music?
I managed to get the dx100 update image mounted in the Android sdk... unfortunately it is on work computer so won't get access until I head to work later.

 
 
OK, so here's what I did.
 
Checked an album in windows, the file name in the iBasso music folder is ##<space>trackname.  Looked in the main music player on the DX100 and the player has removed the ##<space>, leaving only the filename.  The player then adds it's own numbering of ###<period>
 
The album has 12 tracks, and in the DX100 track 12 (filename '12 Name' is listed in the main music player as '001.Name'.
 
If I rename the file in windows to put underscores instead of spaces the sequencing is correct, and what's more it converts the underscores to spaces - so track 1 is now track 1 and the name reads correctly.  That's a limited test, but if it's true for everything then all I have to do is replace space with underscore everytime it occurs (!) and the problem is fixed.  However, I don't believe that you can do a search and replace on file names!
 
 
In terms of system memory, under settings > applications the total amount of memory (used and free) is shown as 503MB, so I'm guessing that equates to 512MB of system memory.
 
 
@surfer, you do have two players - hit the menu icon above 'All Music' in the main music menu or the same icon at the top of the detailed now playing screen and it will open up a new menu.  The Albums option in that menu allows you to play one album at a time (by pressing the first song title in the album).
 
Finally, to echo others, figgie - you are being an incredible help, thank you!

Ok
I'm following Ibasso reccomendations to re-format and re-install firmware to see if this cures my loer case problem.
 
However following their instructions windows cannot find a driver for this platform!!!
 
I am picking the win 7 driver (from the x86) folder and thats what i get, im using windows 7 64bit!
 
Any ideas anyone ?

you need the AMD64 bit driver :wink: it is a for the 64 bit system (long story, AMD has the patent on the 64 bit extension, yes even the one that intel leverages in there CPU's). The x86 driver is for the 32 bit system :wink:

Hey Guys. No problem.
 
I would love to own this system but these User Interface concern are a huge no go for me. Now if iBasso is keep ing track of this thread, I am for hire on a per time basis! Get all your issues prioritized and in a clear concise report!... :wink:
 
back to the problem
 
I am thinking it is in fact a player problem not an OS problem. The question becomes, is the a FuZhou Rockchip development or iBasso?
 
In your instance the Underscores are converted to spaces by the player but it is also butchering the numbering and formatting them with 3 digits (###). Try the firmware reflasher posted by surfer and see if that clears you up. It should. Try two offending albums afterwards and see what happens (if the probelm returns or not).
 
there is a way to do what you mentioned of renaming all files from file name.ext to File_name.ext. Requires script (powerscript). The gist of it, look at the file name and replace spc with _ go to next file.
