I just tried that. Thanks for the suggestion. I will report back if it helps. 

  Does the light on yours ever turn from red to green or does it stay red indefinitely like mine?

  Also in addition to this I checked the temperature while charging. Feels very warm and has only been charging for about a half hour. ~ 40 C Does this seem normal?  

Does anyone elses X5 never stop charging? I could leave it plugged in for a day and the light never turns from red to green. If I unplug the cable and plug it back in it will then switch to green and realize the battery is fully charged. I am using the cable it came with and have tried my 1A...

Has anyone found a way to get album art to show with vorbis?

Gapless playback is very good with 1.22beta     Album art seems to load a bit slower possibly, but not a big deal. Could just be imagining it

I just got my tracking as well from Headroom. I really hope this thing is good because I am still somewhat sad my DX50 got lost on its way back to China for repair . Should have insured it.

  Might as well at this point. Do you happen to have the zip or actual update file you can give me the md5 of?

OK guys, my player is still giving me trouble since installing 1.2.8. I have to factory reset the thing once a day from recovery otherwise it will hang at the Ibasso Audio screen. This never happened on 1.2.7 or prior. I have tried wiping everything multiple times and reinstalling 1.2.8 from a...

  I downloaded from the Ibasso link this time (rather than the mirror) and installed without the SD card in. It still was hanging at that point but I did a wipe in recovery then was able to boot sucessfully and did a factory reset. It seems to be working now, not sure what the problem was.

  OK, so the same thing happened again. The device was hanging on the Ibasso screen. This time I had to go into recovery and delete data. It seems like my device will not boot properly after going into sleep/auto powering off. This only started happening on 1.2.8. Anyone else having this...

I actually did after installing the update, which is why I did not think it would be the problem.   .audio_data and .album_img. Never been connected to anything other than Windows 7.

I plugged it into the computer and it was still hanging at the Ibasso screen but the storage mounted and I was able to delete the system folders and it instantly started working again . Not complaining though     Yes

Guys what should I do... I installed 1.2.8 on my device this evening without any trouble and was listening to music. I unplugged my headphones for about 5 minutes and when I came back the player was off. I figures it had just went to sleep but when I try to turn it on it hangs at the ibasso...

I have the same "problem" with some songs vorbis converted with DBpoweramp (from flac). Doesn't really bother me much.

I made a pleasant accidental discovery today regarding 1.2.7 and ogg vorbis... apparently the firmware secretly fixes the problem where "null" appears as the artist with .ogg files.   If you delete the indexing folders on the DX50 and copy a new file to it to force it to rescan media, it will...

Gapless seems to work well now with 1.2.7. I don't see any option for changing the wallpaper though

Even with firmware 1.2.5 I still have a slight gap between songs (maybe 0.5 second). Has anyone found a way to get album artist to show on vorbis? The DX50 appears to use the album artist tag which AFAIK vorbis does not support.

  Thanks for the info. I am using embedded 600x600, so I will try resizing. I am on firmware 1.2.5 and there is a 2 second break between each song, even with gapless on "close".

I have a couple question for you guys that have had the player a while. Have you gotten gapless playback working? And also is there any way to get album art to look decent?

  I tried contact cleaner and it seemed to fix the problem :)   I wonder what the deal is, I had to wipe it down pretty extensively to get whatever was on it off.

If they have it in stock it will ship the same/next day. You may need to wait for the next batch to come in if they are already sold. Actual shipping was extremely fast... http://i.imgur.com/Qgxl4wU.jpg

Yeah, mine actually has issues near the plug as well, if you spin it the sound cuts in and out. MP4Nation is trying to sell these for $130

I got my DX50 from MP4nation today and thankfully it works well. My free R3 do not work though, the cable has a break somewhere :/
