@tadad1
yeah, it's a bit frustrating to know how hard it is to get the player that you really want especially if you already have one. Already learnt that it's no use to try flashing my MP4 player with other firmware as it won't work and I've tried so many times with different firmwares. :cry:

Anyway, there's one seller claimed that all player he sells that can auto rotate have CTW500 inside, after your explaination I know that it's not always true. sigh....I hope he knows what he's talking about and not just assuming it has CTW500. The manufacturer should specify clearly in the packaging or in the manual the type of chip they use so it would be much easier for the consumers to choose what player they're goin' to buy. :cry:

@Copycat
most of MP4 player has more or less the same specifications as the one on your link above, although it looks elaborate they're missing some important infos i.e: whether it can play 120x160 landscape mode and at 16 fps smoothly and of course what type of chipset inside the player. CMIIW regarding downloadable/ upgradable firmware so far I haven't come across any sites other than this site and s1mp3.org that has them. Some of these Chinese manufacturers didn't even have website.

bigmike88,

i still don't get what your auto rotate means, it is when playing video or viewing jpeg.

well as far as i concern 1.8 inch screen is best fit with 160 x 120. if you concern when playing video, the rotating mode can be fix by editting transformsetup.ini. i am using amv converter version 4.0. i got problem with the video been play mirror. i fix it by rewrite the setting a bit only. bmpadjust = 2 instead of 0. And it solve my problem. i don't have auto rotate problem by the way. but i am pretty sure u can try my way. try bmpadjust=3.

That is the same as my ipod clone player. Everything looks the same from screen size, menu, except for the actual shape (as said, mine is an ipod clone).

Hi, i was wondering if this device has a audio only function. For example, let's say i have a video but i just want the device to play the audio only. Is that possible? thx

Guest, There is no way to play the audio only on video files. You would need to preprocess your video and extract the audio then convert to mp3 and play as a normal audio file.

Re: New Player Review
 

anyone know if the audio jack is 3.5mm? and whether the 1gb really means 1000 mbytes? and where can i get the 2 gb if available. thanks

Amazing!

Hey, i got one of those players as well. Now I can extract the firmware using s1fwx, but i can't upload it again using the mp3 player upgrade tool.

btw. my firmware is also 9.0.43

does anybody else encounter that problem?

(the main issue is that when i close the player, i see santa claus riding on raindeers away.. want to fix that...)

my mp3 player is this one:

thx

skullclamp

At the moment, s1fwx can't detect ver 9.0.43 fully so that is why you can't upload it.

I think we just have to sit back and wait for the latest release of the tool in the meantime......

skullclamp, Although s1fwx will extract the 9.0.43 firmware it will not repair it which is why it will not load back to the player. I have emailed "wiRe" who makes the s1fwx tool and he tells me this firmware uses a flash type F648 that he has not seen before and a file ADFUF648.AP is missing from the extracted firmware. He suggested I rename an ADFUF644.AP to ADFUF648.AP and add it to the firmware but it made no difference. If you can obtain a Full Version firmware from your seller you may be able to edit that and load it to your player.
