    The FiiO X3 2nd gen (ex X3K, X3II) Thread : 192K/24B, CS4398,Native DSD, USB DAC with LO and inline remote

    > add a distinction to the folder you are in when browsing albums as the folder title looks like could be one of the albums Not sure what you mean, is it this: when you browse files, the top line shows the folder, and the subfolders below have the same icon and indentation. That's just the same...

    The FiiO X3 2nd gen (ex X3K, X3II) Thread : 192K/24B, CS4398,Native DSD, USB DAC with LO and inline remote

    Yes I tried to squeeze all the animation that the firmware allows in the sailboat theme, but it doesn't look right. I only use theme 2, fearing the day my eyes will need theme 3, and someone on this forum asked for theme 4 with an even bigger font. So I replaced theme 5 with an adaptation of...

    I still use my high contrast white/green on black on github (and two other fishy experiments), plus processing to avoid the album art from interfering. My player is still fine but the fiio.me site that the page links to seems dead.

    Entry litegui/theme?/msg/none.png in the list above is wrong.

      Well, this thread has them all... but some of them are on a wiki page next to the forums here on head-fi.

    Don't assume... I did have trouble getting the X3II to recognise the gain values in some MP3 files. Roughly speaking, It likes ID3v2.3 ISO-8859-1 and doesn't like ID3v2.3 UTF-16 and ID3v2.4 UTF-8 tags. Even though It always recognises the "ordinary" values, like title and album name, and the...

    I wouldn't know about the X5, but you're right: I completely overlooked buttom_bg.png thinking it pertained to buttons.

      Thank you! Didn't realise its potential - also for leaving out the artwork, as I was doing before. In addition, Mp3tag makes it really easy to move the cover art into files, without creating duplicate files for album art repeated in each track.   I've written my command-line code in Go on...

      I was trying to share information about what I figured out, that's all. But in the mean time, I found another goal: trying to enlarge the 169 pixel vertical space between top bar and progress bar. There are several pixels to be gained without clashing with actual visual elements. The 23 top...

    The numbers I mentioned go beyond vertically fitting the full artwork on the screen, they are for fitting in the 169 rows of pixels in between top bar and progress bar. Therefore, in addition to (even bigger) left and right margins, the image needs a top margin.

    The vertical resolution is in fact irrelevant for the X3II. You can do 320x320 with a 128 pixel bottom margin, or cut off the bottom margin and obtain 320x192, or anything between. The extra file size for an all black bottom margin is very small, but my point that 320x320 ensures that other...

      One of my wishes too... I couldn't believe what you wrote, then I witnessed the same, but in the end I must correct you: it works fine, if you do it right. I initially made several mistakes: Just replacing the cover in Mp3tag is not enough, the file needs to be saved The X3II caches the...

    In my experience, the FiiO does respect track order when browsing by album or artist. When browsing in folder mode, alphanumerical filename order is the king, so that's why many of us prefix the filenames. In both cases, the alphanumerical order amongst titles is irrelevant (except probably if...

    Change the title itself? You can do Convert > Tag - Tag, and set field TITLE to format string $num(%track%,2) %title%. But I wonder why you would want that.   I also wondered if this can easily be reverted, and it can: convert it again with format string $cutLeft(%title%, 3) - assuming that...

    I know it's not the point of your post, but that seems like a really easy job in Mp3tag: Select all files, Convert > Tag - Filename, format string $num(%track%,2) %title%, done.
