Some songs not even play in folder mode with firmware 1.42.
Under 1.33 no Problems.

There's your answer, use 1.33 until the next FW update. I don't think Ibasso has the stones to put out another problematic update.

Shure, this is what i will do.
DX80 sounds too good for not using it!

If the DX100 experience was robust (may be little laggy but solid), it's fair to expect DX200 also will follow suit. What says? Although I feel I missed the boat on DX80, now it's fairly stable, it's not that much fun anymore, if you know what I am saying.
 
Sorry I meant this post in DX200 thread.

That's not my experience with the Dx100. Stupid library scanning on every startup, large battery drain when turned off, and only a 5 hour battery life playing lossy on low gain. Not going to waste my money on Chinese gear anymore.

dx80 is very musical.

Thanks for your valuable input.

You should have the DX100 serviced. We can have it off for quite a while with very little battery drain. Also it sounds like there needs to be a reinstall of the FW. Once the music is scanned the player does not rescan when turning the unit back on.

The end of a warranty period does not mean the end to service. It depends upon what is wrong but we always keep repair costs to a minimum. You can get service by emailing service@ibasso.com.

I am really liking 1.4.2.  The transparency on the volume screen is great, for some reason having the track/album blocked when i adjusted the volume really bothered me.  It seems like such a stupid inconsequential thing and I can't explain under what circumstances it bothered me but it's way better now.
 
The older 1.3.whatever firmware definitely corrupted some tags on my files.  It's only a few and not a huge deal, but it definitely did it.
 
I did the factory reset when I installed, and I just happened to run across an album where the first track didn't get caught by the rescan for some reason.  The second track was marked track 1 and the album seemed otherwise normal.  Odd because all my files have track numbers.  I went to the folder the directory browser clicked the file to play it, it scanned the track and it now shows up with no issues.  I haven't noticed this on any other albums yet...if it's widespread it would be a significant problem, but from what I've seen so far it's not a big deal.
 
The new scrolling....I would have to say it's better.  I wish the scrolling worked like other android devices where you can control how far it scrolls by how fast you swipe, but the new system is definitely better, keeps you from getting too far away from anything.
 
Other than that everything is working great.  I don't use the equalizer so I can't comment on any of that.

the dx80 is really really good.
bought an ak100ii recently and expect it to be better but dx80 is holding its ground!

  Sorry, confused. Are you saying that
1) the tag must contain both Artist and Composer for DX80 to realize that  Artist is not null ?
2) you believe the above is not a FW bug and we should not complain to iBasso

For me it was that the player does not support the album artist tag.  All of my files are tagged well, but I had things like techno mix albums marked with the Album artist as the DJ, and then the individual tracks with the track artist.  It works awesome in foobar but causes problems on the DX80.
 
I swapped the two tags on all my files to fix this and have not had an issue since.  Not the ideal solution at all, but not a dealbreaker either.

It's always been like this since I first bought it. Reinstall fw? Lol, that's what people do with ibasso daps, more than actually listening to music. I can't even remember how many firmwares I've gone through and the thing scans at startup every time.
