It amuses me you can even push aac that high. I have flacs with lower bitrates

Got that tattooed on your knuckles Mr Trev?

Haha, I think I'll stick with CBR, instead of VBR 0.

 

[Mr Trev]

My CBR focusness is simply based on the fact when dbpoweramp first switched to FDK they didn't recommend using variable. The latest version of the FDK codec is all and good, but I like my sad little rut

 

[nmatheis]

Okie-Dokie. V0 is good stuff, though

 

[Mr Trev]

What sort of bitrate are you getting at v0? Using db. it maxes at 224 average. I'd kind of like a bit more than that, you know, just to be on the safe side. 

 

[nmatheis]

Yes, but it flexes up to 320kbps as needed. Do you typically use Constrained VBR AAC Mr Trev? You know, the format Apple calls iTunes Plus. Pretty sure it results in higher bitrate because it flexes upwards from 256kbps but not downwards. So you're not taking as much advantage of VBR savings during very simple passages with that setting.

X3... X3... X3...

See, we're on topic :wink_face:

FiiO responded to my query on the support email.  I'm a little surprised, as I thought they were on Chinese New Year holidays, so that's customer service.  They said they are not sure if 200Gb cards work, but they linked me to a thread in their own forums that discusses it.

I think it'd be constrained (the other options dbpoweramp has are he & lc, which are for loooow bitrates). Its just the slider maxes out at 224 - whereas cbr will go to 11

. I remember when I was young and naive and using mp3, v0 would avg. greater than 256k. Wasn't sure if aac is really that much more efficient, or needlessly low.
 
I like x3

I believe China went back to work on Monday

I have a SanDisk 128GB micro SD ULTRA Class 10 UHS-I 30MB/s
 
and filled it for 110GB with roughly 10.000 songs.
With the older firmware it started to get really sluggish when selecting 'all songs' and browsing through it.
 
Now with the newer firmware and the 8.000 song indexing limit gone, it responds fairly smoothly actually.
Still, I sometimes have to wait 1-2 seconds or so (especially when going back 'up' in my selection / folders)
 
I'm curious what 200gb will do.
 
I do have my folders categorized into Artist -> album. Maybe if you put all songs into 1 folder it won't cope with it that easily
 
Grtz

A 200GB card works fine in the X3. I have a 256gb SD flash card plugged into an adapter and tucked between the player and a tuff-luv case and it works also.

Folks, my 64gb card (san disk ultra class 10) isn't scanning media library after I copied some new music from my friend's collection. It stops after scanning around 1450 tracks and gets stuck. Although folders are perfect, and that's the way I have to play my music now. Could this be a track info or properties problem?

What would be the easiest way out? Thanks

Does the circle indicating the media library is updating keep spinning as if it is still scanning or does it actually look like it has stopped/frozen? The X3 does eventually stop showing what track number it is up to but it often is still actually counting up if the circle is still spinning. You just need to wait and eventually it will say a random number of tracks has been undated.

Are your tracks playing properly?

You certainly seem to know the X3 inside out! Yes, it does exactly what you said, the circle keeps on turning, but the track number stops counting after a point. So how long do you think I would have to wait? And yes, the tracks all seem to play fine without any issues, while playing from folders that is.

Thanks

This happens sometimes due some files not being copied properly. In my case, if the scanning got stuck at the Nth track, simply deleting the Nth file overall across all folders in the memory card after sorting its contents by name solved the issue. You can then copy back the deleted file again.
