Hello Everyone!
 
I apologize if this has been answered already. I downloaded firmware for the AK120 (1.37) and file unzipped thus was left with a .hex file. I copied file to the root of device ( I think) and nothing happened ( I just dropped in there and din't double click on anything). The root from my perspective is where I see other folders such as Iriver, Music, Playlists, and System. Is this considered the root or I'm at the wrong location? Any information would be really appreciated.
 
Thank much!

That is the correct folder. Just dropped the hex file there & unplug (eject first), after that it's automatic.

Is the file name correct? Ak120.hex?

 

[JACONE]

Hi! Yes the file is AK120.hex
 
Let me give it a try! 
 
Thanks much for your quick response!

 

[JACONE]

That seemed to work!
 
Thanks again!

I have Seen a Recent post on this in the ak100 thread (on page 513). It should work for the 120 as well, i guess.

  That's because it's looking at each number character in turn rather than the whole number - you need to name them 01 02 etc to get them to play before track 10.  Easytag will do this automatically in Linux or MP3tag if you use Windows, I have never used a Mac so can't make any recommendations for it.

Kid3 on the mac does this beautifully.

Album art only seems to work with flac files.

I get album art (mostly reliably) using FLAC and ALAC

Hi Nashton,
 
I'm trying to use Kid3 to tag files on my AK120 but it's not working for me (tracks still show alphabetically). I've read the Kid3 Handbook but still can't work out what to do.
 
What am I doing wrong!?

I used YATE on my Mac. It works great for editing and artwork and its free. My problem is that if the FLAC does not have any information it does not get info from the web. You have to manually add it. Other than that... no issues...

Try naming the files 
 
"01 track1"
"02 track2"   etc. 
 
This way the order of the CD will be maintained 
 
You can do this for example with XLR or MusicBrainz Picard and surely also with Kid3 (I guess)
