    i've been asking for this feature for ~2months now with no response. this is critical for any progressive rock albums and/or reissues with bonus content. disc # is a very important tag to implement @JamesFiiO @Joe Bloggs please consider implementing this asap in the next FW update. thank you for...

    HI gain, all day, err'day. it seems to sound better to me. Then I started to notice other people corroborated the same findings as I did. It has to do with the X5II op-amps running in their desired voltage range. However, don't just take other people's opinions as fact, try it yourself, and see...

    rofl @Brooko yea yea. i get it haha. i do sound hypocritical. if you'll allow me to put my tail between my legs... haha. i just hate when people capitalize mac as MAC, as if it stands for something. as for me never using capitalization? im too lazy to hold shift for a split second, whereas he is...

    can @Dobrescu George stop capitalizing "mac", it's not abbreviation of anything, its short for "macintosh". the posix and linux operating systems treat any files starting with a "." as a hidden file. i run both linux and posix systems and have had zero problems writing to micro SD cards with...

    the difference in screen quality between X3II and X5II is night and day, as a previous X3II owner, it was the most annoying thing about that DAP. it was so incredibly annoying to read what was on the screen. if it was sunny out, forget about it. if it was relatively dusty in your room, forget...

    very much this. theres a huge drop off once it hits 1/4 of the meter. if there were some auditory feedback like a beep or a certain tone to indicate this when it is in your pocket, or even a voice saying "battery low" or something ~10m before it dies would be nice. battery reporting doesnt seem...

    im glad someone else agreed with me, because i thought i was crazy. this is not a knock on the quality of the battery by any means, its just that the indicator or the so-called coulomb meter is possibly not reporting properly. is there an interval where it checks the battery and reports it to...

    i mostly use mine in my car. my drive to-and-from work is ~30m, so thats an hr/day driving 5x/wk = 5hrs when used strictly in my car, it sips power, and id estimate i get about 20h using lineout = 2wks between charges   as for when its on (and i only use the high gain option), yes, 10h seems...

    haha. somehow, i will survive @JaZZ it will be treacherous, but i will persevere... talk about #firstworldproblems eh? still loving my X5II with my only complaint being the lack of continuous play feature over OTG. i posted this complaint in the firmware thread, but just for repetition (and...

    yes but not everyone wants to cut slits in their silicon case...   its doable yes, but id rather something a little more secure *AND PROFESSIONAL LOOKING*, something with a stronger backing up against your skin, silicon will stick and rip arm hairs out once i start sweating. plus, you're at...

    no. i've been asking about this forever, and im getting no replies as to if theres even one in the pipeline. no one from fiio cares to answer, and everyone here is just going to tell you to cut your silicon case and put a strap thru it. i dont know if the X1 case fits, probably not cuz the...

    thanks @Joe Bloggs i wanted to use the OTG feature this weekend with two different devices (a corsair x2 128 gb flash drive over a startech OTG cable & a leef microsd reader with a pny 128gb microsdxc card). they both work with the x5ii, but they dont continuously play. i figured id mention the...

    @Joe Bloggs can we possibly request continuous playback through OTG? OTG currently only allows you to play one song at a time, it will not carry onto the next song unless you manually press play each time. its VERY annoying, and i'd love to have the music continuously play while i'm driving. i...
