    Shanling M0 - Smallest Hi-Res Portable Player - New Firmware V3.6

    We had to wait 2-3 years to get that - check this thread! But resume for podcasts usually doesn't work, I check with my own podcasts, it's not 100% reliable like iPod Nano is. It quite often forgets. Also I think they never supported some of the audiobook formats?

    Shanling M0 - Smallest Hi-Res Portable Player - New Firmware V3.6

    Please please PLEASE @Shanling can you sort out audiobook and podcast playing from the start this time? Rather than it being on the Never Never/partly done then not really? As I said back in this thread many years ago, massive audience for podcasts and audiobooks - even more now, and it's...

    Sorry for the belated reply - but I use Dapper which you can find in the App Store. It's really good and works with iTunes, and you can create playlists it works from for those of us with massive libraries. Just setup as a generic DAP, you'll be fine.

    Hope it lasts longer than mine - mine fell apart within 6 months. Utter crap.

    Shanling M0 - Smallest Hi-Res Portable Player - New Firmware V3.6

    So does Linux/Unix. Files and directories starting with a dot e,g. .config or ._Trash are hidden. Windows shows all files, regardless. But I turned that off as explained above, and the _explaylist dir didn't appear. And it doesn't start with a dot...

    It is odd since OSX can have directory names starting in _ - I checked (but not on an exFat device). So it's either something to do with how this particular directory is generated by the m0, or some exFat/OSX incompatibility.

    And it took me ages to get my VirtualBox working, but can confirm it's OSX - Windows10 sees the same directory fine, the playlist works fine. Something odd about that directory on OSX.

    Even tried turning off the hidden files in this: https://www.howtogeek.com/211496/how-to-hide-files-and-view-hidden-files-on-mac-os-x/ and _explaylist_data doesn't show.

    Hmm I was going be a Scrooge cos your reply was so snarky in tone...but actually just verified you are correct, annoyingly. Ex-Fat Samsung EVO 256Gb card here, with OS High Sierra on Mac. The directory doesn't show in Finder - no great shakes there, Finder sometimes doesn't show what it thinks...

    Yes they think we want Audible, no, we just want bookmarking of podcasts and audiobooks - or any long mix or file would do. It doesn't have to have a special menu, or app, or anything. The Playlist stuff which think fewer people want is not that technically different, adding files to a...

    Shanling M0 - Smallest Hi-Res Portable Player - New Firmware V3.6

    *sigh* This has been asked for many times over the nearly 2 years this thread has been going! It's a feature I really want too, but it seems like we'll never get it.

    THIS. Nail. Head. Completely. I now have AptX headphones, and even on my old AAC/SBC ones, I could hear a difference but definitely compared to the other 'cheap' DAPs I've tried, it's no contest. Original iPod is surprisingly close, cos I switch between those (lack of podcast/audioboook support...

    Dapper for Mac updates: App to sync iTunes with your DAP

    Case in point - I quit that sync, or tried to - the program spinny balled and froze, I did a force quit and now - won't scan the drive even after reselecting it.

    Dapper for Mac updates: App to sync iTunes with your DAP

    Well it's for times like this - sometimes my DAP (Shanling M0) syncs REALLY slowly, and of course now I can't 'quit' this sync, there is no cancel button. If I crash out of the program - or the very few times it's crashed - or quit and restart quite often Dapper either freezes or cannot see the...

    Dapper for Mac updates: App to sync iTunes with your DAP

    As an aside - in High Sierra I have this from time to time especially if the app is quit out of/frozen and restarted. I was wondering is there a way to resolve it without a reboot?
