Thanks again for your feedback. Are you only noticing the second issue when launching from playlists? I seem to get this effect intermittently no matter how I start the player. Other DAPs buffer (and sometimes even show you a little progress bar), which is quite tolerable. It does spoil the experience a bit when the front of each song gets truncated.

No,
also after start the player i get this effect together with a little fade in.
 
When launching from playlist (intern or extern), get this effect intermittently.
 
Thanks

Wating for the scanning fix and international characters correct displaying.
 
Sugestions:

1. Allow various artists, genres, etc. in a TAG separated by semicolon.
2. Allow lyrics from TAGS: LYRICS and UNSYNCKED_LYRICS.
3. More use of ID3 TAGS: Track Number, Disc Number, Artist, Composer, Year, Ratings.
4. Allow library to search, order and select by ratings.
5. Allow Fonts size selection for Fiio Music App. Some people has eye visibility problems.
6. Allow landscape mode. Like other Android players.
7. Allow to Queue a song to be the next to play when the actual playing song finished.

 
Make the FiiO Player the best Android Player in the world that actually not exist. Sometimes in the past like iRiver H-100 Series and Rockbox.

And... we're at 3.1.8beta:
 
http://fiio.me/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=42157&extra=page%3D1
 
This FW update appears to have squashed our (previous) number one-rated bug, which was the inability to scan large files with lots of embedded artwork. Here is the change log:
 
1. Fixed issue where a scan may fail on too many songs with embedded album cover
2. Added the function of Play through Artist/ Genre/Album(turn ON the Play through folders) 
3. Modified Album to be the default display choice under the list of Artist/Genre
4. Fixed issue where FiiO Music may exit abnormally when playing songs from other paths after playing DLNA songs
5. Fixed issue where incorrect display after removing and recovering the songs cover 
6. Fixed issue where AIF files can not display album cover
7. Fixed issue where MCU may fail to update

Note: After this upgrade, FiiO suggest deleting the album(internal_sd\FiiOMusic) folder and then scanning for songs on FiiO Music again. (Please make sure the FiiO Music app is closed before deleting the album folder.)

FiiO also appear to have fixed the issue of correct alphabetical ordering of files and folders. Great job, FiiO!
 
I still have an issue with play-through-folders. At the end of one folder, play jumps back to the first (or some random) track instead of continuing to the next folder. Is anybody else seeing this?

The frustrating thing is that the alphabetical ordering (in song, artist, album or folder view) is perfect I when order items by clicking the little folder icon, but it is not right (almost random-looking in places) when I click the "a-z" icon. The scrolling with the edge of the screen to select the first letter only works with the "a-z" icon. This means I can only have either correct alphabetical ordering, or scrolling by first letter, but not both.
 
I am actually puzzled about what these icons are supposed to do. Why have them both? What is the "a-z" icon supposed to do? Is it supposed to order alphabetically? (It doesn't.) If so, then what is the folder icon for? (It does order alphabetically.)

 I'm not convinced the alpabetical order is sorted, I still think it is only using the first letter I have
 
Hinder
Holloeen
Hit Parade
 
and
 
Johnny Van Zant
Jazz for summer
Joan Baez
 
in folder view
 
Fiio app has been cleared, the usual folders deleted, cash emptied, rescanned

If you click the little folder icon (rather than the a-z icon) in any view you should get correct alphabetical ordering.

yes, I've just discovered that, you have to do it each time you change from a-z to z-a

My first correct scanning since firmware 2.0. Now scanning all songs. First time not returning back fo FW 2.0 and sticking and trying FW 3.1.x.
 
Also international characters seems to be fixed. 

 

[csglinux]

Woohoo! Thanks for the feedback!

 

[kiwimcc]

Almost. I have an artist starting with Ü. This character still displays as a Chinese character. Strangely, however, the lower case 

ü does display correctly.​

FW3.1.9_beta is now out: https://www.dropbox.com/s/p98hckvykjlbn4m/X7-ota-3.1.9beta.zip?dl=0
Here are the main updates and bug fixes:

1) Added option to return to the root directory with just one click while in the Folder view menu;
2) Fixed issue where FiiO Music would exit abnormally after creating a FiiO Music widget in the home screen;
3) Fixed issue where the ViPER effect would not work after restarting the player;
4) Fixed issue where the track number display and track skipping under a folder/album might not work properly;
5) Fixed issue where FiiO Music would exit abnormally when switching the display between different track lists;
6) Fixed issue where the now playing list would be displayed incorrectly when resume playing a song;
7) Fixed issue where the Sleep timer value would not be reset after the Sleep function took effect;
8) Fixed issue where the set value of Idle poweroff timer might change after restarting the player;
9) Fixed issue where the idle poweroff function would still take effect when in DAC mode;

Number 9 is a big one for me. Thanks FiiO!

One other issue that seems to have been fixed is playing through folders. That always used to work in the sense that play did continue beyond the last track in a particular album folder, but the next track played often wasn't what I'd have expected - the FiiO music app would often jump to a random track. My X7 seems to be working ok now in that regard. Anybody else still having problems with play-through-folders?

 

[csglinux]

One minor issue (not a new bug in 3.1.9 though)... Try pausing playback, scrub to a new area of the track and then hit play. The FiiO music app flushes its play buffer by playing you a second of the previous section of the track before jumping to the selected area. Not a big deal, but also not exactly how I'd expect it to work. (It doesn't happen if you scrub without pausing playback.)

Is RM1 able to link to the X7 again yet?
