That's unique. Does this speaker has some internal memory or something? Not sure why would it try to connect to M0 the other way.

The speaker has a microphone/buttons for connecting to phones.
Plus they can join to other speakers. L&R
Maybe one of these options is triggering the M0.

Does not happen with my other DAPs.

@KSB1978 are you really thinking of throwing this in the bin because of the lack of support for external playlists?

 

[KSB1978]

Pretty much.
It's not much use to me if I can't use playlists. Given the tiny player is pretty much prohibitive of building a playlist inside it.

Same for me. I have a large lossless library so I can only load a subset of what I have at any given time. The easiest way for me to manage that is through playlists. I use a tool to export my playlists and it also creates a copy of all the files with the correct file path so I literally just do one click and I'm done. I'll wait a firmware update or 2 before giving up though. I also put the video sync problems in the same priority.

If anybody needs help in disposing of their M0, I'll help you recycle it

Seems most important external playlists and replay gain for most of the people here including me .

I don’t use playlists at all on all my DAPs. Maybe because I started with LPs and reel-to-reel tapes. Prepare the medium, physically put in on, sit down, listen. Then repeat.

Singles (45s) were even more work

Everyone has a different use case. While I grew up with LPs and my father's old reel-to-reel tapes, over time I grew accustomed to the "mix tape" culture. With that in mind, being able to generate my own playlists and load them onto a portable player is a lot more convenient than the old method of pausing a cassette deck and waiting until the song you wanted on the LP was just about to start.

And those kids need to get off my lawn.

Just ordered a red M0 off eBay - for all who don't know, they are having a site wide 15% off today until 10PM (promo code: PREGAME15) .. picked it up for $85 shipped .. take advantage of this, or anything else folks!
Got IE80s and CA lyra 2s coming in after that, going to be a nice winter of listening.

Hey guys, this one or BTR3?

Hey guys, this one or BTR3?

Based on all the info you provided as to what features are important to you, I would take both and perhaps some others.

What research did you do to come to this question?

Umm no, there is a vocal minority going REPLAYGAIN! REPLAYGAIN!

The rest of us want other things, and in my case, and it seems in bigger numbers if post numbers are anything to go by, want podcast/audiobook/resume support.

Go ahead, search this thread -

podcast - 34 posts
resume - 22 posts
replaygain - 28 posts
audiobook - 47 posts
m3u - 13 posts
playlist is 60 posts - but that's not just people requesting that feature, also people talking about other things or about the internal playlists.

Anyway out of 190 pages, that's not exactly 'most people' is it?

what he said.
I asked for bookmarking for podcasts etc on about page 5 (might have been page 20 or even 50 for all that I know).
The only reason I'm not banging on about it every day is because @Shanling said that it was on the todo list and pestering wouldn't help.
No need to shout.
If I get bookmarking this dap can be my only and truest friend.
I don't want to wind the guy up while he is helpful and omnipresent.

So apparently Fiio contacted audiobook about adding support to their new M3K ultra cheap DAP and were told audiobook won't grant a license to any non-android devices. If this is true then we aren't likely to see audiobook support on the M0 at any point. Time to remove audiobook support from the M0 wish list.
