Oh I suspect we will find things to talk about.
 
The Grateful Dead were done 20 years ago and people till talk about them after all.

  Once I had an update seem to hang. Like Hogweed mentioned the updates run and then kinda blanks out (still running but doesn't show any numbers). I just left it and it eventually finished. I only have about 4500 tracks on my 128gb card so it's possible 20k+ could take a while (or possibly beyond the db limit - anybody remember what it is supposed to be now)
 
 
oops, nevermind the 20k part. Just re-read and seen you only got 4k. Check your tags too. Sometimes non-standard tags can cause updating probs.

i wonder how much would it take for 10K flac (classical music) with this one i got yesterday

I think I fixed the problem... Somehow the filesystem got corrupted. It was rather weird as all files were ok and the only changes made to the card was the firmware update... Anyway, I reformatted the card and copied my music to it again. Now everything works.

Barring any tagging wierdness, it really should only be ~5 minutes or so. I've never actually timed mine, but I doubt it's any longer than a couple of minutes even with the hangish activity I mentioned earlier.

Nice -- I came in here to ask if anyone has one of these yet and there it is! Since I'm running two cards right now I'm very tempted, even though it costs almost as much as the player.

Ah, good point, I forgot (how un-American of me). I will exercise restraint until then. Thanks for the reminder.

didn't updated my player yet ... not in rush ... i want first to get accustomed to the line out of the X3 to my new RSA predator ... it sounds clearer and bigger than any thing i heard before  ... the x3 through the line out to a quality amp is a different beast !

The 1.4 firmware is a nice farewell treat.

Another big X3 LO fan here. I haven't noticed a sound difference in LO with fw3.4 but I'm not a daily listener, nor perhaps as picky or golden eared as some. All I can say is I loved it before and love it now. My amp is the JDSL C5, and with my HD600's I can't imagine things getting much better.

I have noticed a strange behaviour with the latest firmware. When playing a FLAC file (whole album in one file) with cue sheet, gapless set on, there are gaps between the tracks, when switching gapless off, there are still gaps but shorter.
I thought there are no gaps, when playing back a FLAC with cue sheet?
I understand, that there could be problems with gapless on separate tracks but this ...
 
PS: The files play perfectly on a PC (using Foobar).

 

[iancraig10]

TBH, I've always found gapless on the X series not to be proper gapless. iPods play gapless fine but it seems that there isn't really a fix for the Fiios.

The only real answer is to rip albums into one long file really. Not great though. I keep two versions. One with tracks split and one long file!!

Not much help if you buy an album though and download it as separate tracks.

 

[TheGiantHogweed]

I still do struggle to understand what this issue people people have with gapless on the X3 is. I have recorded a lot of music with the computer program Audacity and when I split the almum in to tracks (320kbps Mp3s) as I always do, there simply are only gaps if the tracks have gaps between them anyway. If 2 tracks join together, there isn't a gap. Just every now and then , there is a really quiet pop sound when it joins onto the next track. However, there is no gap at all. It is even better with my 24 bit flac album. That has a lot of tracks that join together and where the tracks that do join are, there isn't even a quiet popping sound. It joins flawlessly. It is the same case with all of my live music from a CD as 16bit flacs. I am used to rockbox as I used to have the iAudio X5L and gapless worked fine on that and I can't say the X3 is any worse.

Maybe it is just certain formats this issue happens on.

 

[HWTest]

Hmmm, maybe I wasn't clear enough.
I have the albums as one big file and a cue so I know which track is playing and the X3 inserts gaps, it separates the tracks which are in one file with gaps !
