MuVo Sport C100 - Neck St

Anyone else having a problem with the neck strap on the Muvo Sport? I just got deli'very of mine today and noticed that if you attach the player to the neck strap it's possible for the player to easily unhook itself from the strap...as I found when it bounced off down the room!! I'm not too fussed as I probably wouldn't have used that strap too much.
To me it seems to be a design fault but has anyone else noticed?

Yeah, I think I see what you mean. I've kind of looped the 'string' around the hook a couple of times and that seems to work really well!
After a few hours playing time I think that this is a pretty good MP3 player, as I'd expect from Creative (my original NOMAD Zen is still going strong!). The only quirk is the software...i.e. getting used to MediaSource after years of PlayCentre....and having to change the naming convention of my ripped files!! But these are minor and I'm pleased I stuck with Creative...again!

1GB sd card for Creative Muvo Sport C100 questi

I want to get a GB sd card for a Creative Muvo Sport C00. I was thinking of getting it from amazon. Can anyone tell me
)the name of ones that will works with the Creative Muvo Sport C00.
2)the best one I should get (or should I just get the cheapest).
Thanks

It sounds like something got corrupted in the memory. I would reformat and transfer the music again. Won't take long ... 256MB with 50-ish tracks at USB2 speeds is quick.

Muvo Sports C100 Froz

I put some songs onto my Muvo Sports C00 recently and when I unplugged it, it just shows the screen when inserted into the computer (The usb cable connected to some music notes). It won't turn off/on when I hold down the play button. What should I do?
P.S. What does the button on the back do?
P.S.S. Would it be a problem if I just put songs on it without putting them into folders?
Thank you in advance.
~Atrain

The button on the back opens up the case ... where the battery and SD card are located ...
Try removing the battery, wait a moment, then reinsert the batteries.
Also you can load tracks onto the SD card from any card reader.
We have two here used extensi'vely (you should see my wife's almost 2-/2 yr old C00 - looks like it has been through a war) and they take all the abuse you can give them, and keep on playing.
FWIW since the player has minimal playback ie normal, shuffle, that's it you are best served to just put all the tracks in the root of either the onboard memory or the SD card.
good luck with it,

MuVo Sport C100 and MMC c

I have a new kingston 52mb MMC card.
My pc sees the card 'out of the box', the Muvo indicates that a card is there and when conected via usb card shows, however attempt to access it (write to it) io error.
PC writes no problem, muvo does not see any music copied via pc, shows 'no music'
specs say card should be ok.
any ideas

Search for C00 and MMC in the past threads as I have seen something before where only certain types (not makes) of MMC card worked. Did you know there were different types? Nor did the others till they had problems!

Firmware wishlist for the MuVo Sport C

I would like to start a thread to discuss the suggestions for firmware update for the MuVo Sport C00. FYI, I am running firmware version .0.0. Please post your comments or ideas to my suggestions, or reply with your own comments.
Before I begin, I'd like to say that I think the C00 is an awesome sports player, but it could definitely be improved. My Fiance has the Rio Cali 256, which is also a good sports player. Right now I think it's a toss up between the Cali and C00, but I think the C00 has the potential to outshine the Cali. (I like the Cali's separate volume controls, but I dislike how it falls out of the armband.)
Here are my suggestions in my order of importance:
[urgent] Fix the stopwatch so that the user can change tracks while the stopwatch is running. You should be able to press "Menu' and toggle between stopwatch and music modes while the stopwatch is running.</LI>
[urgent] Fix shuffle mode so that it truly shuffles playback from internal and external memory. Right now it appears to select songs from internal memory 90% of the time. Also, I don't think the player has ever selected anything over the 200th song on the player for shuffle playback at the root level.</LI>
Provide the ability to select a specific song for playback from the Menu. Right now, you can only select the folder for playback and then navigate to a specific song from there.</LI>
Reorder the Menu icons, and place "Folder", "Stopwatch", "Music" and "Play Mode" next to each other. This would allow for easier and faster navigation while running.</LI>
That's all I can think of now. Does anyone know how to submit these to Creative's dev team so they can consider them for a future firmware update?

Definitely, point one in the list is the most urgent one (making player functions accessible without having to stop the stopwatch). This ridiculous flaw leads to the situation that from day one after buying the device it rests unused in my drawer. I do not agree that there is no marketing for this device. Actually, I bought this thing for 20 Euro after I read in an ad that this was the ideal mp3 player for sports. Maybe for 00m runners this is right (you barely change a music track during the2 seconds). But for any distance above 000m it is just laughable.
I wish there would not have been marketing at the time when I searched for a sports-mp3 player. I wouldn't have fallen into the trap to buy this crap. And that Creative is not able to provide a firmware upgrade which corrects this bug for about .5 years now is enought reason for me to make a BIG detour whenever I see a Creative product on a shelf.

Problem battery life MuVo Sport C

in creative web site, muvo sport c00 battery life is 8 hrs.but my muvo' s battery life is 3-4 hours..( battery is duracell )my muvo has two harddisk...once itself 256 mb diskthe other one is 52 mb carddisk where is back of the muvoi always listen songs from 52 mb?( carddisk ). is that the low of battery life ?you are listen from 256mb muvos itself disk. the battery life 8 hrsand if you are listen from carddisk 52 mb. the battery life is 4-5 hrs...is it maybe ?

I had the same problem. I played the music loud and used
tunes with high bitrate. 4-5 hours at the most for batteries.
My solution to my problem was to get a plastic AA bsttery
holder from radio shack and small alligator clips and connect it
to the AAA terminals and velcro it to the back of the player.
It don't look pretty but works good. Actually I like the look
because it don't look sissyified but thats my $00.2 worth.
scroffa...

Creative sport c100 start

I am having trouble starting my Creative Muvo sport c00 MP3 player. Everytime I go to start the player, it turns on, plays about one second of music and then shuts itself off. I have tried deleting all the music and re-adding it and the batteries are brand new, but it still will not start. Sometimes I can change the song, but it shuts off right after. I got the player as a gift in April of 05 and it hasn't worked since July. any suggestions on what to try next?

Download the firmware from Nomadworld.com downloads and reload it. Make sure to follow the instructions at the download page.

Muvo sport c-100 button troub

I just received a used muvo c-00 sport for Christmas. I am having trouble with the buttons. They only work when pressed extremely hard, and some times not at all. I read some posts about this problem, but didn't find?any solutions. I don't think I can get tech to fix it as I can't provide a reciept. Does anyone have a clue what the problem might be? I am thinking of taking it apart and inspecting myself. This really sucks, I bought one for my girlfriend a couple years ago and her's works fine!
!!! Thanks in advance!!

Does Anyone else even have this player!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Muvo sport 100 and iPod - common file form

Now that santa has brought both, is there a best suggestion for ripping CDs in one format that will accomodate both players? Is MP3 the obvious choice and does that provide reasonable quality? Or I guess the only other common format is WMA?
Thanks

iPods won't play WMA. MP3 is the common format.
For quality I would suggest LAME encoded MP3s, at a minimum bit-rate of 92 kbit/s.

Muvo Sport C

I bought this 3 months ago and really do like it for the gym running etc... I have been trying to use the SD expansion slot to expand the memory for more songs for travel. However, whenever I place a SD card in the expansion slot the player freezes up. It will not advance past the Creative logo startup screeen. When I remove the card and power up again it works fine. What gives?

What make and size is the card? Chances are it's not supported.

Broken 256 Muvo tx

Arrrgggg.......Jsut when I wanted to use it too.
If you own one you know how it splits apart so you can plug it into your computer. Well it seems the USB connecter is the problem. Ive only split it apart a couple of times too add songs, so Its a factory defect which sucks becasue I needed it this weekend. I guess It has to go in for warrenty, Lucky Ive only owned it since christmas. Its my favorite MP3 player so I dont want to give up on it. Ive had an Ipod literally explode on me, and a Iri'ver with a defecti've battery, So far this one has been the best sounding, best quality and best price with enough room for all of my favorite songs.

The flash players are all very easy to use, we have a few different ones, it's best to look at the product pages to see which you prefer. In roughly the same pricerange as the TX 256, we also have the MuVo TX FM 256, the MuVo Micro 256MB, or if you want to spend a little more (and have more storage), there are larger capacity versions of each of the above, and the Zen Nano (52MB or GB), Zen Nano Plus (52MB or GB), MuVo Sport C00 256MB and MuVo Slim (256MB or 52MB).

Sports MP3 Pla

considering getting a muvo sport c00
http://www.creative.com/products/product.asp?category=23&subcategory=25&product=079 4
cos i want a decent flash mp3 players with an arm strap to wear when jogging, any other players i should look at and how does it rank against them in terms of size and sound

You're on the right track. Only flash memory based mp3 player can support the amount of shock that you will put it through while jogging. Hard-dri've mp3 players are way too fragile for that type of use.
The only player that I found out on the market that looked halfway as durable as the C00 is the Motorola DAP025 found exclusi'vely at Radio Shack. Which sucks because they get to jack the price up on you because it's only sold there.
http://www.radioshack.com/product.asp?catalog%5Fname=CTLG&product%5Fid=42%2D 8064
To me, all of them sound about the same. Really... Is this player one you want to listen to hi-fi music? It's for jogging, right? What I've found is that the difference comes when you place earphones onto them. The earphones can make a world of difference. I was surprised at how clear and loud the supplied earphones from the c00s were compared to my old Sonys.
There's the Rio Sport out there, but I've seen more than a few bad reviews about it relating to its durability on Amazon.com, pricegrabber and other customer review sites.
http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=55-0-3
I've owned an RCA Lyra. Don't even bother looking at it.
Something VERY interesting has come from Lexar which is an MP3 player with no onboard memory at all. This dri've the price down CONSIDERABLY. If you already have SD cards like I did, then this is something you should check out. I can't say anything about whether it's durable or even works, because it's not even available yet, but the concept is very interesting. From the looks of it, it's not even a sport model, but it costs a little more than /3 of what I paid for my C00.
http://www.jr.com/JRProductPage.process?Product=4022
So far, I've been very pleased with my C00 except for one issue. I have had a hell of a time getting it to work with my high-speed memory in the external bay. It took me about 2 weeks worth of emails to customer support for them to even recognize this as an issue. So if you do get a C00, be very careful about the type of card you get. Stick with the slow-speed cards for now.
