Thanks for the response! Yes, correct, if the player did not work, to me, that would most certainly be a big problem and more than just a worry!
I just wanted to make sure I didn't have a knock-off manufacture, etc., which to me if it was would have been more than a worry as well. In addition, I was hoping this might help someone else avoid confusion when purchasing a gold/black version currently, as it could be like the one I received.
I'm hoping that one day it will start to at least look a little champagne in some light like yours does... maybe I need to leave it out in the sun or something? Only thing I can think of trying at this point... would be truly crazy if it worked!
Did you happen to purchase your player recently? Is the Plenue text tan like in the photo Vitor Valeri posted above? Does the text change color as the player does in some light?
I just remembered that I have a nice Raynox macro lens for my camera, so I decided to take a few pictures with it and without it of the Plenue text, which is very much gray in color on my unit (it is nighttime right now, so the lighting without the flash is a warm LED bulb, which makes photos look more red a hazy overall; hence why I took some with the flash):

According to what I've seen so far, the gold unit's text should be quite tan, while the silver version should be gray. What I have is the gold/black version (already returned one), so it is a bit crazy that along with the silver like finish, the text is also quite gray.
Thanks again for the input... I think a true answer to the differences with this particular unit would be if I could find someone with an older gold/black unit locally and take a photo side by side.
What is gapeless playback?
Does a car stereo USB mode recognize the Plenue D? I have an Alpine system if that makes any difference. If so what is the sound difference between using the headphone out as opposed to the USB connector?
Thanks in advance/
The Plenue D is a USB client. The car stereo is a USB host.
The Plenue D should go into connected mode and behave as a USB drive.
The hardware/firmware in the car stereo will probably only recognise the one drive (the internal memory) and not the micro SD card (external memory) as it was only designed for USB sticks and USB card readers.
You cannot set the Plenue D playing and use the car stereo as a USB DAC. That is the wrong way round. The PD doesn't support USB DACs and the car stereo doesn't have that function either.
If you want to play music on the Plenue D in the car then use the headphone output and the 3.5mm input (LINE IN, AUX IN).
yeah mine tooI bought my Plenue D six months ago now. Great player. But one disappointment: one of the little screws at the bottom side is already rusty. Anybody with the same issue?
yeah mine too
