Really liked the 1.5.0, it's warmer than 1.2.8 and mid is so thick. :D
Also the UI is the best among other FWs.

Am I the only one to face this issue: DX50 + standard 1.5.0 would occasionally skip a fraction of second in the middle of a track being played resulting in a very bad listening experience.
 
I have never had such an issue with 1.2.8 or previous version. Nobody met with this issue?
 
As far as I am concerned, this means... back to 1.2.8.

Yes, and ibasso isn't sure if they will ever program them. So, no luck for DAC on a Mac. Am in the same boat and asked the question a few posts up. It's a shame, especially since the Fiio X3 works as DAC on a Mac without any drivers.
 
Cheers,

Lets hope someone will make DAC driver for Mac based on win driver somehow, if it`s even possible

i ill give up on usb dac on mac =(
Just feel stealed from ibasso since its rival x3 have a lot of better charact. Only the UI is better. Sounding, only LO to a fiio e12, so i guess i will end selling my dx50 and getting a X5
Sad story from ibasso

Sigh that's really disappointing...was really looking forward to it. I assume this is the same for the DX90 too?

Megaexplosion 1.1 sounding extremely good though!! Kudos to all parties involved.

Here is a new problem:

Yesterday, I downloaded Cannonball Adderley's "Somethin' Else" in 24/192 from HD Tracks. Whilst it plays perfectly on the DX50 from an OTG USB stick (and sounds amazing), when tried from two different MicroSD cards (one Sandisk, one Maxell), the player freezes when I try to play any track from this album. All other HD Tracks downloads work fine from these cards.

Any ideas?

You could convert it to a different format (WAV, say) at the same or lower rate and see if it works that way.  Just to see what happens.  It sounds like that album was created in a way that your cards don't like, for some reason.  Or you could try reformatting the cards and trying the album again.  Did HDTracks embed or encode it in some way that is interfering with you transferring it to your cards?  Maybe an email to them stating your issue might get you a better answer, especially if everything else you've gotten from them works fine.
