    FiiO X5 2nd gen Impressions and Discussion thread

    It's definitely annoying, and even trying to "trick" the selected songs doesn't seem to work to throw it off.  Mine recently decided to randomly wipe both my cards (they're fine, I just had to re-format them and load them back up), but I definitely noticed that after I both reset the firmware...

    Has anyone else on 2.0 noticed a weird glitch with the back button?  It didn't happen on 1.27, but there are times now when I'm playing a song and hold down the back button--like before--to skip directly to the main menu screen, and instead of it doing that, the screen goes entirely white.  My...

      Well, that's....fantastically annoying.  The one thing I don't like about the X5ii is that they didn't have a black version like the original X5, so now, months after I pulled the trigger and bought one, they come out with it.  I'm not about to buy a second one over a color, but that's a...

         I bought this cable from Amazon for my Fiio 2nd gen, and it works perfectly for me.

      It does run warmer to my touch, but that's also probably because I tend to have it in my pocket, or in the fabric case I bought to put it in.  I don't notice any more battery drain than before.

        I used to use a card reader when I only had one card, but that A: is a bit of a pain (you have to remove the card, put it in the reader, put the reader in the computer, reverse process to get it back up again), and B: if I switched between USB or card reader, I found out it also changed the...

       The only time it starts from the home screen for me is after I've done an update, otherwise it starts up from where I've left off.  The random thing I've seen mostly if I use the player categories; in playlists I've made with Foobar, it doesn't seem to be as much of an issue.

      I have noticed there seems to be a letter limit in m3u8 playlists that I've not encountered on other players that I've noticed, but creates problems on this one.   The song will come up in my playlist and it will say it's "not found" but I can very easily go out and into the folder direct and...

    Official X5 2nd gen beta firmware download and discussion thread--version 1.27: library search function, replaygain, filter options

      Possibly it's within a genre or a particular grouping that it has issues?  And to be fair, it seems like it really gets bad after I've left it in that particular genre or playlist for a while (like, I set my Game genre to play last Saturday, and I don't shut the player down cold after my work...

         This beta firmware came with the option to search by letter.  Like right now, if I'm in my Game genre list, and I hold down the Menu button, it pops up an alphabet to select.

        Same here, except I have two 200gb cards with over 22,000 songs.  My biggest genre has 10,000 plus songs in it, and yet somehow, when I'm in that genre, I'm seeing the same four disc album over and over again, which is...well, frankly, absurd.  The shuffle algorithm definitely needs some...

        I'm at 22,000+ files over two 200GB cards, and it flies on the latest beta.  It's almost night and day.

       Huh.  I actually just fiddled with the EQ earlier today, and I didn't have that happen.  Granted, I didn't change it from "off" to something else, I just switched from "Rock" to "Dance."  And I also have custom firmware (Relic's are just too amazing not to use).      I do have to say...

          Actually, I figured out where it was coming from anyway; what looked like gibberish in some of those extended tags had the extra genres.  That was why I was so confused, I thought I'd gotten them all.  A mass cull with extreme prejudice finally did it.

    Official X5 2nd gen beta firmware download and discussion thread--version 1.27: library search function, replaygain, filter options

      Unsure if this is related to the new firmware or not, but I have to agree with some commenters in the main thread; I'm seeing a lot of repetition in my shuffle.  And it's hard to ignore when the genre I'm playing is well over 5,000 songs, so there's clearly more than enough variation for me...

           I have a bunch of "ghost" genres that shouldn't exist (they were deleted out of the files before I even loaded them on to the card, yet they're somehow still "attached" to them), and I tried this thinking it might work, but I might be misreading this.  If I press power, it turns the...

        I haven't had one yet with user replaceable batteries, but the Cowon X5 could easily be opened and the battery soldered in/out.  So I guess I'm used to having to figure out how to deal with it myself.

    FiiO X5 2nd gen Impressions and Discussion thread

           I'll agree to a point; the lag is considerable when I hold it up to my Cowon X5, which I bought over ten years ago, and still works.  But I was also not in the habit of using genres then; I solely used playlists, and they worked perfectly.  The Cowon X7, though, was definitely laggy...

    Official X5 2nd gen beta firmware download and discussion thread--version 1.27: library search function, replaygain, filter options

    The player seems a lot snappier now with this firmware (and that's with 15,000 files already; it's really gotten better), but I still have weird tags showing up in my Genre categories that I can't get rid of.  I've checked the files--the genres are not the same as what Fiio keeps telling me, and...

    Change the tags for Artist to "Beatles" or "Beatles, The."  How iTunes sorts has no bearing on the Fiio.

      Sadly, they're also out of silicon cases from the company; I emailed and asked them.  I don't like the plastic case at all; it doesn't fully protect the player whatsoever.  And I've had to fiddle with the card with my fingernail as well.  I've just finally stopped removing it and just...

    FiiO X5 2nd gen Impressions and Discussion thread

         I've noticed that, on one particular playlist that has a LOT of songs (it's my largest song category), they wouldn't stop midway, but they would stop at the end of the song and not go on to the next.  I'd have to physically tap the button to make it continue.  Weirdly, though, using the...

     Using a 200gb right now, waiting for my tax money to arrive so I can buy a second.  Works perfectly fine, even though, yes, if it's filled up with a lot of files, scrolling and other things can sometimes take a second or to to react.  (I'm used to it, since my Cowon X7 was terrible with that.)

    FiiO X5 2nd gen Impressions and Discussion thread

      So, I've gotten my player finally, and I have to say, I'm so far very happy with it.  Granted, I'm coming from a Cowon X7 that was thoroughly disappointing in almost every way (it had a touchscreen, which is why I said stuff it to that guy who cried about them half a section back; it was the...
