Does anyone know if any of the custom firmwares support Ogg Vorbis please?
There's no support for additional formats, so if it's not originally supported, then it won't work with a custom firmware either.

Thanks. None of Sony's firmwares can handle vorbis sadly.

Maybe a dumb question but how do I get J3 with A55 player?

Wm1z + J3 on WM1a sounds wonderful!!!
I am currently testing a new firmware from Mrwalkman which significantly increases the power of sony.
To give an idea to feed my odin mk2 I need a volume of 75 in direct source.
With the Mrwalkman firmware I am at a volume of 25 to 27.
My Wm1z is now more powerful than my sp2000T and sp1000 high gain amp (10 vrms) and a friend's sp2000.
No problem either to feed a 250ohm dt990 on the unbalanced output of my Wm1z volume 50.
For me no need to add an amp behind the sony.
I don't know how he did it but he's a genius and a super nice person.
I who had left to buy an N8II only for the additional power now no longer want to order it.
Mrwalkman saved me a lot of money.
I'm going to focus on buying a new helmet instead. Many thanks to Mr Walkman

Wow! This is exciting! Does it sound like it will be released soon?

I need that download link asap

I don't desire more output power (for now), but what intrigues me is the potential ability to toggle (using the lock switch) between two different tuning profiles when booting-up the -1A/Z. I hope this is a feature that is still a possibility with a future release.
What are peoples recommendations with WM1Z tuning and Plus mode v1 or v2 and standard DAC vs alternate DAC?

1Z tuning, Plus v2, standard DAC and region J3 with the new test version.
I use this on my 1A and 1Z.

Thanks aside from I’m using alternate DAC that’s the same as I’ve got it set up currently

Awesome!
What do you think in comparison to DMP-WM1 FE?
curious as well , been on dmpwm1 fe classic for quite some time now , i have downloaded walkmanon but too lazy to switch CFWs
wm1a with those CFws of yours is trully fantastic dap , i may need to buy one as backup in case the one i have breaks down (have logged more than 8000 hours of use with zero problems , amazing build quality by SONY)
