I have a few basic questions. Besides the default music player, what other free player can be used that has a clean, minimal interface and an easy search function? For reference, I use MediaMonkey on my computer and I like the way it scans everything and can search by ID3 tags.

I still find the volume to be somewhat limited, I did install the firmware upgrade. Specially during driving I have to set it very high. Currently I connect using Bluetooth and just put on a long playlist. Is there a better way to connect for superior fidelity? Or can it be controlled by the car interface? I can only skip songs with Bluetooth, I like how my car stereo recognized my ipod and I was able to control it via the car interface. I'm assuming if I connect via aux connection I won't be able to control it at all, aside from physically through the device, which is dangerous while driving.

You might try "Hiby" music player, my cars bluetooth does not recognize my pioneer, but all in all i'd rather use the aux input, hiby does allow play through folders, not a bad option.

Hi all. Just bought this player from Amazon US. The one I have is Imported in the EU, and I did a firmware update. The version I now have is 0.1.37. However I srill do not have the Variable Line Output under Sounds and Notifications. What version does everyone else have? The player is pretty good but I believe it is not very loud.

Mine is also 0.1.37 and it does have the Variable Line Output option in settings.

Thanks csimon. It is so weird. I did try restarting the unit, and have logged a complaint with Pioneer Support. Can you take a picture of the Sounds and Notifications so I can see what it looks like?
Other than this issue, I am happy with the unit.

does the xdp-100r still have issues with tidal offline?

Thanks cSimon. I definitely don't have that option. Pioneer EU support say they going to look into it. I even tried a Factory Reset. Crazy hey.

Does it make a huge difference to the sound quality?

Hi, it may be to do with the market your DAP is for - have a look at one of the latest posts in the Onkyo DP-X1 thread. I have a
Japanese market version and the same firmware as you and have what csimon posted in his photo, the EU put some restriction
on volume but the Onkyo thread may help.

Thanks tiddlywinks. I will definitely go and check. I must say, at least the support on this thread is top notch. Most of these issues and solutions would not have been known

Greetings everyone,

i just purchased the XDP-100R in silver. Which sounds fantastic and a big upgrade from my half dead DX50.
But a few noob questions may I ask,
Is there a way to lock buttons, especially the volume wheel after I switched off the screen?
As I follow along this thread, I notice some of you are able to make this device as an USB DAC or I mis-read it?

It's been great using this baby, I hope all of you enjoy it too!

thank you in advance and happy listening

In the Sounds & Notification settings screen, there is an item called Volume Lock (see my screenshot 6 posts up ^^^^).
USB audio out to a DAC is described in the manual on page 80.

You might find it useful to have a quick read through the manual first which should answer quite a lot of basic questions.

Hi all,
I have a Mojo hooked up to a new XDP-100r, Wi-fi and Bluetooth off, I have disabled most of the extra programs and using UAPP playing a mix of 16/44 Flac files and DSD files. I get maybe 1.5hrs and the player drops to 30% battery remaining, and then dies about 30min later. Has anyone else encountered a super-reduced battery life when using an external DAC? (Or more specifically MOJO...)
