Bah. This update wouldn't have been so bad if they hadn't completely screwed up gapless. Now we have to wait another 2-3 weeks for them to fix what worked mostly fine in 1.2.5.
Should I leave EQ off . . . ?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
It's weird cause it should have. My best advice is to download again from the FAQ page and extract the file onto the DX50 and try again, you should get it to work. That's exactly how I did it.
The past few pages of EQ talk has been getting kinda confusing. I just want my DX50 set to neutral; basically I like to listen to my music as it was recorded. What should I set my player settings at? Should I leave EQ off, but I heard when set to 'Off' it isn't totally neutral? If I turn EQ on and set to custom what should I set the sliders at? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
The EQ is subtractive. Yes, the numbers say +/-6 but they really mean -0 (top) through -12 (bottom). A slider at 0 subtracts 6 steps (they appear to match the volume steps from the volume controls) from maximum for that band. EQ "off" -- no presets can be selected, sliders can't be adjusted -- is the same as all of the sliders at maximum. You can test this by turning EQ "on", sliding all of the sliders to the top, adjusting the volume to a comfortable level, listening, and toggling EQ on and off. If you hear any changes then your mind is playing tricks on you.
I either don't know how to use the timer feature or it ain't working. I played a 80 minute music session and even though I set the timer to 30 minutes, it kept going until the end.
I hope you are not confusing auto shutdown with sleep timer. The first will only shutdown after X minutes if the player is not active. Sleep timer should turn off your player after X even if it is still playing.
It could also be a bug because there have been problems with the autoshutdown feature too.
Nop I set sleep timer to 30 minutes, not 1 hour or 2 hours, it's definitively not working. I am wondering though if it has some interference with the auto shutdown feature.
