Sandisk Sansa Clip+ ?

[wtfh4x]

Clip+ looks very different from Fuze. Clip+ looks better imo.

So anyone clarify if Fuze got folder browsing?
So to put music in a clip+ is connect n drag into it?
Like a folder can be a singer wif sub folder in it as albums?

Yup, just drag and drop. Fuze does not have folder browsing unless rockboxed.

 

[winthony]

But if i rockbox my fuze, isit more stable than clip+ rockboxed?

 

[randomguy123]

Yup, stable ones for the fuze v1.

 

[winthony]

But what are the chances of clip+ being bricked?
Cos i really think i shld get clip+ but afraid that rockbox might brick it.
Is rockbox just dragging a file into the clip+ n reboot?

 

[randomguy123]

Until they release a stable version, anything can happen. So it's at your own risk.

 

[winthony]

Hmm.
So its safer to buy a fuze since after rockbox-ing can have folder browsing right?
N for fuze, b4 rockboxing it, how do i put song in?
N after rockbox how do i restore to orginal fw?

 

[animeonegai]

Just use the clip that came with it?

wouldn't the sweat touches it and kaboom?

Your main purpose is to rockbox if I am not wrong? You can just drag and drop but must be in the MSC mode. You can just install the original firmware from the website itself.

I have brought it out to exercise and this is one little hardy music player. Of course, excessive moisture can damage it.

As of the 1.02.26 and 2.02.26 firmware revisions, Fuze now supports Replay Gain for MP3, WMA (non-DRM only), Vorbis and FLAC, which utilizes any Replay Gain metadata that has been encoded into the media files. Also, navigation by folder was implemented as an addition to browsing by metadata. [4][5]

from wiki, does this meant folder browsing is avalible wif ofw?

 

[randomguy123]

Ok erm, Fuze can have folder browsing only when it is rockboxed.
The player will be read as a removable disc(flash storage) in MSC mode while in MTP mode, it needs a proprietary software to transfer stuff. Just like how your iphone needs itunes.
I use MSC mode all the time for your information.

 

[winthony]

So whats the diff from msc n mtp?
So only by rock boxing, my fuze than can browse music by how i group them?
If i nvr rockbox, how do i browse for music? If not by the folder i drag in?
N btw, u know if the people selling fuze in the marketplace is v1 or v2 since v2 is unstable?

What are u using n do u rockbox?

Whoa at the questions.

Ok. In lame man terms, just use the MSC mode. It's simpler.
If you do not rockbox the Fuze, the player will go strictly by tags. Means if your songs are not properly tagged, you would have some trouble finding them.
Regarding the version of the player, you would have to ask the person selling it.

I have used a Sansa clip plus and getting it again soon.

Ohh! I see. I get it. I just posted a reply.
Did u rockbox your sansa clip+? Was it okay?

 

[randomguy123]

Have not tried rockboxing my clip plus but may try it on my future one. Or maybe wait till they release a stable version of the firmware.

 

[winthony]

Oh i see.
Btw, how u know fuze cant folder browsing one?

 

[randomguy123]

I was also thinking of getting either the Clip plus or the Fuze last time but ended up with the Clip plus as it sort of 'beats' the Fuze in many ways except for the smaller screen. But when watching videos, it is just not satisfactory on the Fuze but that's just my two cents.

 

[winthony]

I see.
How clip+ win fuze ?
N which design nicer?
