My point still stands ! We all are having a conversation which has nothing to do with the purpose of this thread. Please do not reply to this. I already have unsubscribed so as not to get all this irrelevant notifications

I believe that the purpose of this thread is to discuss issues and other matters that are of common interest to FIIO 2nd gen owners or potential ones. Most of the latest posts IMHO belong to privete discussion between owners that would be better to be done through PM or email or chatting or...

wow! Was that the official answer from fiio support? I might have the same problem. Actually I gave up trying to build database using both cards (128 GB each). I also have a similar amount of songs . I only use folder browsing although I would like to use category browsing as well.

I absolutely agree with you about the apple comments. But we all have to agree that the are the best in developing the best user friendly interfaces.

Hi Welcome to the club. Same issues here. The only reason I've not sell it yet is the awesome sound quality !

hi there all of the above mentioned are  - unfortunately -  true. Actually this is my first portable player other than ipods (I've used 3 ipods so far)  and I can tell you that x5ii is better only in one thing : Sound quality. Which is very important actually. ALL other features are  inferior...

I respect your opinion. I just need to pinpoint one thing. Metadata Tags where invented in order to help organizing music files in libraries and to actually make the need for file/folder organizing obsolete. Meaning that "Make sure you tag your files correctly and don't bother for file /...

OK no offense taken. But I don't thing that you are completely unbiased. You actually don't find any serious flaw in X5 as I understand. We all know that most of what I'm pointing have been discussed before. So I guess that I'm not alone in this.

Thank you very much for such a complete explanation. Actually if I knew it I would have thought twice before buying it. Anyway I will try and live with that for a while and see. If I find it too annoying I'll probably will sell it.

1. How do you know that FIIO fro a fact is not willing to improve anything. It is only 1year model. 2.My tags are as perfect as they should be. I've spend enormous amount of time on tagging. they even have reviews in comments .Re-organising my Hard Disk is not a solution. It will take time and...

1. Yes it is. But I believe that supporting 256 GB storage means exactly that. That your device has to be able to manage so many tracks. 2. There are these 3 fields in an mp3tag : Artist, album artist, compilation (checkbox). In a normal album that is of ONE artist the fields ARTIST and ALBUM...

Hi there I recently (4 days) bought fiio x5 2nd gen to replace my IPOD 160GB 7th Gen which was had it's battery ruined by Rockbox and also did not like its musical fidelity very much. I will focus on the negative things of FIIO that really need improvement to make it work. I'm sure all or...

I had the same issue on Windows 7. I discovered that there was due to ASUS Ai charger. I Uninstalled it , rebooted windows and rockbox drive was recognized. In your case the problem maybe due to another software. In order to find it check the drivers used for Apple Mobile USB Device in the...

Yes I'm upgrading regularly. Yes I agree battery indication is totally unreliable. I estimate that battery does not last more than 8 hours while with original firmware lasted more than 20. Anyway I cannot do much , so I'll live with it.

Couldn't agree with you more! I would just like to add that I believe that rockbox has ruined ipod's battery the first time I installed it. It completely drained my battery while scanning for music and originally building it's database (I'm talking indexing about  27,000 files). At that time...
