FW 1.1.8 Now available: http://www.fiio.net/en/story/597
Well it installed okay, wifi too slow here so gave up on the OTA and just did it via USB, At work so have to wait to test later, although I didn't notice any of the issues mentioned in the release notes in my usage.FW 1.1.8 Now available: http://www.fiio.net/en/story/597
They put a lot of work into this - including transitions between operations (optimising). Testing was actually quite fun because I could see the improvements as they were happening. I hope people find the improvements worth the wait
@Kasios - FiiO are having to prioritise things - ie targeting the most requested improvements / features. Proper gapless is one of the highest importance one (it is seamless on lossless now, but still has a micro gap on lossy files - they are still working on it). They've also had a lot of requests for replay gain, which again will be a higher priority. If its really important to you (crossfade), can I suggest you look into using an app like Neutron? It has crossfade and its configurable. It'll make you happier - until FiiO can get around to implementing it in Pure Music.
Stay updated on FiiO at their sponsor profile on Head-Fi.

I have not said that FIIO has said it, I said it is something basic and it exists in most mp3 players, and in this 500 € I think it should have come from basic.Neutron has working crossfade - which is what you are after. Its one of the most configurable Android players on the net - I'd suggest giving it a go.
Also where did you get the idea that cross fade is one of the features FiiO advertised? They've never (as far as I know) talked about it being on their Android players. I'm not sure why you're disappointed in FiiO when it was never a feature that was planned. This idea of "should have been there on day 1" is a bit of a strange one.
But I was under the impression that USB audio out would be a standard implementation and not Device specific with which it is connecting (I may be wrong). I had tried X5-III-FW 1.1.7 with FiiO-Q1 and Oppo-HA2-SE, both not working. My Cayin N3 works well with these two. I have not checked with 1.1.8 (first i have to download it ).
