Genre selection showing list of albums I would only appreciate with the option of play through, because otherwise shuffle play is useless (as it is already for the category "artists".
If I go to category "songs", I can shuffle play all my music, if I go to category "genre", I can shuffle play all my hip hop, electro, jazz, rock, etc.
If I go to category "artist", i only can shuffle play through one particular album of the artist..
And I won't do playlists for every artist.

Ooooooooh, so THAT's how you shuffle play on the QP1R !!! Thanks

 

[Bambule]

I would appreciate the possibility to shuffle through artists too...
More so, if I could just wish unrealistic future upgrades, I would love the possibility to shuffle simultaneously through multiple subfolders (on different levels), for example: shuffle through all folk (genre) & Norah Jones (artist) & Dark side of the moon (album) & smooth criminal (song)

The cowon s9 could do that, I loved it and I miss it

I'm older guy. Many of you were not born or were very young when I was serving in Army overseas. Many of my generation are accustomed listening to albums from start to finish. Understand attraction of shuffle function, but don't use it much. I tend to think of albums as concept in whole to be consumed start to finish. Never really cared for greatest hit albums. When young it was fun listening to music singles on jukeboxes and those 45's with one selection on each side. If I had been told when I was young my future music tastes would consist mostly of Jazz and classical I would have laughed my head off. This from one who liked the Stones, MC5, James Brown and Johnny Cash growing up.

I totally agree with you, satir.
I spend months to choose a DAP. Thought about players that could do streaming, Internet, Android driven, in those days many consider me crazy buying albums, CDs or digital. I chose the QP1R for sq first, but also for the thing you mentioned. An player without touchscreen, with less than good usability I thought it would help me to listen more to albums as a whole. And I'm listening more now this way. But there are always days I can't choose from my library, so much music and what should I listen now? I loved the times I owned some 20-30 CDs and knew them inside out.
Someone here mentioned some time ago, these days most suffer from musical ADHD, and I sadly realised I'm one of them.
But I'm fighting against it!

I would think so. If it can't format properly, use the computer and let us know how it goes.

 

[kingdixon]

Well, i will try and report later.

May be there are some file system limitations while formatting

If someone told me at eighteen in my future half my music listening would be classical and much of the other half Jazz I would have laughed my head off.

I like listening to the whole album as well. That is the product the artist intended to get to the public so I want to hear what they created as it was intended.

We have heard that the 400GB cards work on the QP2R, but haven't heard from anyone trying it on the QP1R. Please keep us posted on your findings.

I had to format the 400gb cards outside of the QP1R .. I have 2 players they each have one 400 & one 256 cards .. seems to be working fine .. almost 17K flac files

So when is the library limit going to be increased? Inquiring minds would seriously like to know?

Hint hint hint

Anyone in the US still having problems with the battery indicator issue, please PM me with your name, address, phone and email. I will assist you with getting your player working properly.

Great, i still didnt try though, what did you format to fat or exfat ?

 

[Bambule]

What about being in Europe and still having problems with the battery issue? How do you help the US people? Changing the device? Hardware? Or can you assist by giving recommendations on how to treat the DAP?

Fat ... I think the QP1R only accepts that

I had to download a free partitioning product to format them from a windows 10 machine
