I've just got my hands on a brand new N6. Had it a week but, for different reasons I didn't open it till last night.
Whilst I have been incredibly impressed with the sound I have discovered either a major flaw in the player or confirmation of my Wife's suspicion - I'm an idiot.
I can't play albums sequentially, one after the other, not without physically picking the player up & starting another album. You can't hit play just to start playing albums, only tracks within albums & once the tracks have been played in that album, the music stops.
What am I missing ? I sincerely hope it is my stupidity & it's easily remedied & will be happy to make my Wife's day :-D.
I read through the manual online a few times last night, in case I was missing something. My Wife suggested that I should look to adjusting the structure of the album folders into as few as possible. For example, one album ripped is from a series of volumes 1-9, each volume consisting of four discs/albums. So, on the PC there’s an initial file with the series title name, that contains a further nine that are the volumes & each of those contains four more of each disc & in each of those is the music files. Because I just copied & pasted that structure, as they’ve been ripped & compiled on the desktop, my Wife thought that’s where the problem may be & so I started re-labelling them so they’re not folders within folders.
It hasn't worked.
I can play the trance, hip-hop & rock n roll (Elvis) genres on their own as they’re not mixed & the randomness wouldn’t bother me but, I have many house albums that are sequentially mixed & to play them as a genre means they play in order of track title number so 1 then 1 then 2 then 2 etc. from any number of albums. That is a mess & not an acceptable listening experience.
Just looking quickly, making up a playlist or favourites doesn’t look easy & it looks time consuming.
I hope I’ve made the issue clear to somebody so that you understand because I’ve also contacted Cayin, in the hope they may be able to offer some advice. If you can't understand me, then I doubt they will.
The player is set to play once, I assume that's the normal setting, to ordinarily play through in succession, all the music on the card but, it won't.
Any thoughts please ?
Hi Woogy:
You write very detailed, but forgive me English level, I hope I'm not understand your meaning.
N6 there is no folder playback functions, but has the plan, and started in June this year. In the new firmware, we will define the file playback function.
Then you will achieve your request, can be carried out in the following way to edit yourdocument, I cite a simple example to illustrate.
For example, you have ten albums a singer, you first to the singer's name in a folder, and then, in this file are better in the ten album, then you choose to play the singer's folder, N6 will start from the A album, after the completion of the automatic switch to B album, hasfinished playing.
I do not know whether the corresponding answer, your problem and can give you a reference.
Thank you, my friend.
