| eatcha's Full Review: Sony Network Walkman NW-E3 (64 MB) MP3 Player |
this player rocks, un-fortunately the software was created by some-one from the stone-age. I've been playing arround and come up with some fixes - because believe me once you've got this baby you will not want to return it because of software conflicts. If there is enough demand I'll post them as comments on this otherwise theres not much point typing them in.
If your getting slightly annoyed I've fixed some conflicts with
my sound-blaster live-
Windows instalation i.e. not pre-installed
The recorder buffer "code4" errors
If your interested in how leave me a comment and I'll fill you in. If you've got any other problems or need to convert SONY format files into something more easy like MP3 do the same thing and I'll see you in a month.
Bye Eatcha... and remember If it looks this good, you aren't just wearing it for the music....
P.S. after sales support is not very good they told me to take the product back for a refund ?!!! I said no I love it !

Update
Anyway--- in reply to a couple of questions.... make sure you update yoursoftware at the openmg site... esp if your an XP'er. if you have lost your serial number (like me) because its rubbed off the side of the player just enter random numbers (the update page checks for a number but does not check its valid ;-)
My player is still druming along - I have decided to go completely MP3 - sounds mad... but with a P4 you can now convert whole CDs in almost no time so all I now do is copy my CD as MP3- then use the converter to put it into ATTAC.. I then listen to the tracks uploaded and siply delete the database (I have a shortcut that does this) thats it, it takes 5minutes to convert a list of MP3's for upload..... Have I discovered a way round ATTAC's messed up file format?
any comments --- usuall space... love to here from people
