I found it quite annoying when I want to add new songs because I couldn't listen to it immediately. Wish there was a way to turn it off or at the very least make folder browsing independent of the scan.

Annoying it is - just adding a few songs. I've gotten into a habit of doing some chores while the insanely slow scan happens.

Have you figured out how to sleep it with a button or something?

Right now, what I do is that I have to set a timer by pulling the menu from the top down. and hit the sleep button and wait for the minimum time which is 10 minutes.

When I first received my unit I questioned Opus about that issue, I was advised to simply stop/pause playback and close the screen from the top (power) button, that will put it to sleep.

This is absolutely useless to turn the DAP off on a dialy basis, why the hell would you do this ?

Opus and Sony DAPs share a VERY useful feature call deep sleep, which means that the battery drains very slowly over idle mode (= screen off, music paused). The best thing is that it makes your DAP instantly ready for use, like a smartphone.

I sold my AK380 precisely because of this, it was too much of a pain to turn it off and on upon need, which is 30 seconds plus systematic scan (which drains battery faster).

With my Opus #1/#1S and Sony WM1Z, when I want to start I light the screen, when I'm finished I pause music and turn the screen off, in pure smartphone style. And they still easily last for 2 weeks this way. I only switch them completely off if I know I'm not going to use them at all for at least 2 weeks.

I think all FiiO players that came out after the X5ii have this feature too.

What is the maximum amount of drain per day you've experienced?

For Opus #1/#1S, about 4-5% per day with no use, which is better than most smartphones.

I had X5iii for a little while : the drain on idle was appalling and the battery life was barely 6 hours when playing music. Dreadful...

That bad? How much did it drain on idle?

I'm currently using a N5ii and it drains about 7-8% per day on idle. It has no deep sleep function so i guess it's pretty OK but my metal opus is still more efficient on idle about 2-3% per day. I was surprised to see that it was still quite full despite 2-3 weeks of idling.

If anyone wants to know. I just got a pair of Campfire Audio Comet earphones. With an extra balanced 2.5mm ALO copper Litz cable.

Nice ... Extremely good ... A tad on the bassy side ... Just the way I like it

Though you have to set to high gain and use volume around 50

How does this compare to original opus?

So does anybody have the latest FW uploaded to a 3rd party site? 1hr for 212mb is ridiculous

Lol thanks guys, two days late so I finished the DL that night. Was gonna host it as well if nobody else did.

Maybe @peter123 can add the FW link to the main post and update as neccesary ?
