I've damped like 2.7GB of (good, maybe this is the point!) music down on it, and it plays any sample I give a try 8) ... I was somewhat anxious when loading over the 2GB line since no-one on the forum had ever reported doing it successfully on any "noname" chipod. I now feel confident it'll behave nicely up to the available 3.82GB it boasts.
I've also downloaded back to my laptop randomly chosen songs/movements stored on the player, and, well, all such files are unaltered (linux has a tool to compare files) and will play perfectly to my hi-fi.
The reason why I haven't downloaded the full 3.8 GB yet is lack of time and the only grief I' m holding against it: the damn "skipping to last played song" issue I spoke of earlier when scrolling thru the directories :twisted: : first, browsing is in any case very slooooooooow, and while the chip lists (or at least seems to do so) the directories you may be "undesirably" prompted to the "last played song".
%% please skip if under 12 or over 90 %%
That $uck$ and pi$$e$ me off: no claim for the Holy Grail, as yet!

It may be the chip is sort of "too weak" to deal with so many entries... Hopefully it's only a software issue, that a coming firmware would improve? :? Can someone provide help or advise? :wink: Kerdu, happy in Paris, hopefully yet happier after your answer .
