As I can't find a manual anywhere, could please someone tell me when is the D fully charged,
The light on the charger went green, but if i hold power button and big battery indicator shows, its still keeps on charging. How long does it take and how do you know when it's ready?

Just to avoid a misunderstanding: do you unplug the DAP from the charger before switching it on? If you don't, then try it, it should be good. If you try to switch on the device while it charges, with red or green light, it might show the big battery symbol.

Please report after trying what I suggest.

Otherwise, my DTR1 needs approx. 2.5 hours to get a full charge.

Thanks for your reply.
I know what you're saying,
I was talking about the big battery icon when player is still plugged, so i switched it on whilst still plugged and battery indicator keeps on charging.
I did try unplugging and then switching on, then battery indicator on the right corner is full and green, but that might not be an indication of full battery i thought.
All i noticed was the red dot going green on the charger.
And im trying to make sure i start from full to see what's actual battery life

Ok, I got it. Thanks for the precision. I understand that the light switching from red to green means that the battery is fully charged. It sounds pretty obvious to me, but maybe ask Anson in order to get the right answer.

The proper way to charge DTR1 is turn off the unit and start charging. The red light should turn on if the device is not fully charged. Once it fully charged the red light turn into green. Then turn on DTR1 and use. Charging while DTR1 is ON sometimes shows false battery indicator and produce lots of heat. Strangely if you charge DTR1 in off mode the unit remain totally cool which is great thing.

This is also how I do it and it works perfectly

All cool then guys, green is a Yes
Thanks
Btw, whilst im on it, there's no way to operate buttons at the front without waking up screen, right?

no, not for the time being

 

[celticprince]

no, not for the time being

Only the volume buttons operate without 'waking' the screen!

 

[soundblast75]

Yeah, thought so, but with the update history i am hopeful

And how about the sound quality? Any comparison if you could?

Best I heard after Tera. That's my ear and I am not exaggerating.

Sold my DX200 + DX150 and Sony PCM D100 (I know its a recorder) and keep DX90j and DTR1.

Some option about leveling volume needs to be added fast imo
I am on high gain mind you with iem, but still

The majority of my listening is done at either Medium gain at maximum (55-60) or High gain at settings 35-45. This is using relatively 'inefficient' Final E5000 IEM's, but still there is reasonable headroom and that's before having my ears syringed, which I will do soon

I also believe there is a difference in sound when comparing Medium and High gain; even when played at the same 'actual' volume, High gain sounds a little fuller, weightier and more dynamic. This is obviously to my ears only and may have no real basis

I relish the idiosyncrasies and uniqueness of this player; I hope it reflects my personality as I find myself marvelling at each new experience of 'old' well-known albums and really getting 'lost' in the music.

What is it you would like to see addressed by firmware?
