My feedback for the next update

1. Different Themes - solid darker colours would be nice, it's hard to read the fonts next to bright areas.

2. Fonts - specificly at the a bottom, the track titles and file information (eg. 16/44.1) it's quite thin and small, slightly bigger and bolder would be welcome.

3. Scroll wheel, each click of the wheel should represent a single movement on the screen, It feels too sensitive at times and feel like I'm correcting the movement often.

4. Battery percentage icon.

Yeah I remember a while ago, Shanling said they were going to add an adjustment for the sensitivity of the scroll wheel in future firmware. That would be really nice! Also um I still would like the stock akm filter settings 5 is better than 2. Also I don't know if it's possible but it would be really awesome if the player could revert to headphone out by just plugging headphones in. Or some kind of warning when it's on LO mode so I don't blow my eardrums out.

Did you ever get on to your engineers about the truncated bitperfect output?

You're still getting the mid bass hump then I assume? I do get more bass with mojo ( which I f ing love by the way ) but I assume this is just because of the more powerful mojo amp and unfortunately I don't have a cord to try mojo with any other sources.

In PM, Deftone confirmed to us his problems was caused by cables, with right cable Mojo sounded as intended.

@Shanling I'm having problems upgrading the firmware from ver 1.2 to 2.10

I copied the update.upt file to the root directory of the memory card, from System Settings/System Upgrade, clicked the little tick mark in the circle, I hear, what sounds like a reed switch click, the screen blanks the switch clicks again and the screen returns to the desktop without upgrading and without any failure notice.

I have downloaded the firmware four times from two locations, from your website and the Google Drive link you provided earlier. I have tried three different memory cards. Following several failed attempts I reset to factory and tried again. All without success.

What do you advise?

We have seen reports of these problems with few times with 1.2, 2.1 should have fixed it. This is first report of that, so we still need to look into that.

I haven't had enough time to do a full evaluation, but I have noticed with both this and my M1 I hear a faint tick. Almost similar to vinyl playback. I'll do a longer listen over the weekend and see if I can narrow down when it occurs, I don't hear this on other source options (android cell phones or laptop). And it isn't always there, but often enough to be noticed without being annoying. Anyone else hearing this?

You hear the tick in your headphones or does it come loudly out of player itself? If from player itself, it's just hardware working when it starts playback for the first time.

Did you ever get on to your engineers about the truncated bitperfect output?

Was reported, not sure if they were able to replicate this problem(of 0.3 last second of song missing).

 

[Shanling]

And to all your suggestions on changing UI, we would like to change many small elements. But all of that needs to be done by folks at HiBy, so we can only report these things to them and wait.

Hi guys,
I have a problem after new firmware update. My screen when turned off (screensaver) and I want wake up the screen I have seen nothing. I mean I seen something similar like on the TV when no signal. After switching off and back again on it's working, but as soon the screensaver turns on the issue repeat itself. I have upgraded twice the firmware and I went from the 1.10 firmware. Oh, and sometimes the screen working fine. Any idea @Shanling what cause this problem?

Hi @Shanling ,
Any news regarding my firmware problem?
Thanks

Ahh good to know, thanx.

encountering issues where i have some DSD SACD’s ripped as ISOs on my microSD card–

the albums do not show up on the “Artist” list on My Music

the albums DO show up on the “Album” list on My Music, and when you play one of the albums, the artist name does show up in “Now Playing”. however, the tracks are all out of order.

so why don’t the albums show up when searching via artist name? and why are the tracks out of order?

@Shanling Thanks for this. I have downloaded the Cloner tool package and read the instructions. Before I give it a go.
Is it necessary to have a memory card inserted?
If I need to leave the card in, are the contents safe?
Do I need to delete the failed 2.10 update.upt file from the memory card?

 

[Shanling]

@Moodyone You can do it without card inserted.

Hi @Shanling ,
Today I have updated the firmware with the above method but the problem is still there. Could you give me any information what to do and how to solve this problem? Thank you

Edit: Downgraded back to firmware 1.2 and the problem is gone. Seems to me there is a problem with the firmware.

 

[BartSimpson1976]

Any thoughts on hooking the M2s to the new Q1MKII for trying balanced?

 

[Moodyone]

@Moodyone You can do it without card inserted.

Thank you @Shanling Using the cloner tool, upgrade to 2.10 went without a hitch, in just a few minutes.

The new lowpass filter mode, should there be an 'Off' option? If not, what is the default position?

A couple of small issues I noticed in ver 1.20 and are still present in 2.10.

With Gapless play 'OFF', there is a noise just before the next track starts, it sounds similar to a needle drop on a vinyl. Not present with gapless play 'ON'.

Comparing my M2s to my wifes Shanling M1, which has the same UI.
Scrolling the wheel on the circular sub menus clockwise the M2s highlights the icons in an anticlockwise direction, and anticlockwise, when scrolling clockwise.
It's much more intuitive using the wheel on the M1.
