Creative Vision:M question

hey guys
i have a question about the Creative Zen Vision:M
i was wondering how you can transfer a song to the mp3 player ..
because i have the Creative Rhomba myself.. and i can do it very easily when i have the player connected to the comp, no programs nothing .. just by right mouseclick>copy to> and then the station from the usb ( rhomba)
i really want to buy a zen vision:m but i really want to know first, if i can transfer the songs like my rhomba!?
is there no programs needed for installation? i really dont like that though! just the simple old way (like my rhomba ) so please no programs etc..( like iTunes for example, programs like that )
i hope its possible let me know
thx !
- Tom
<SPAN class=time_text> PS: i hope a moderator from creative can reply my answer quickly my dad is planning to buy one today in the noon.. but we like a answer thanks!

Creative Vision 60GB Question for mov

I've only had my Vision for 3 days and syncing music as we speak........around 800 songs and hour at the moment.
My question is what format people use to move a DVD onto the unit.
I use IMTOO Platinum V4 to move my DVD to WMV and then have Creative Video Converter to its thing.
It took over 75 minutes to convert a movie.
QUESTIONS:
What formats are people using?
What software are you using?
How long does it take?
I have the following software:
DVD Shrink
Nero Ultra V6
DVD Fab Express
IMTOO Platinum V6
What is the best format to use so its compatible with ZVM?
Cannot I simply drag and drop the files into the folders?
thanks in advance.

Many thanks for that..............
I just tried copying another movie into my ZVM using the iri'verter but it too took around an hour (was a shorter film then the first)......
Ok, seems that this is the length of time then it takes to convert a DVD across to the Zen standard.........no problemo....
thanks heaps anyway...... I now have two converters...

Creative Zen vs Creative Vision M question regarding d

Ok im traveling a lot so i descided to purchase one of those players so i can watch moovies . The problem is that i like the creative zen but i read that there is a problem with this model regarding the divx playback well not much of a problem but its still pain in the neck if you need to convert every video file to 320x240 everytime you wana watch something wich is not the case with the Vision M model with wich you just need to upload the moovie into the device from what i hear is there any truth to that because that will determine wich one i choose or that problem has been solved already !

What about direct playback in the vision M series do you need to convert the file to 320x240 divx format in order to play it or it will play anything with curent resolution lower than 720xXXX ?

Creative Zen Vision M question!

Creative Zen Vision M question!?Hey guys, I'm not from US but I hope you will understand my english anyway .
So here's my question:
Is there any legal way to get one of "creative zen vison m" players? I prefer new products... 60gb would be awesome..
Since Im fed up with Apple and got already n Touch i simply want a player with a good capacity and just to listen to music... and i pretty much liked the creative zen vision m player... more than any new product from creative... all of em are more like multimedia and not "classy"....
Furthermore I just find the product over google at customers site... if i browse all mp3players from creative I cant find the product i want.... It would be awesome if anyone knows a way to get a new one of these... and it would be kickass if it could get delieverd to EU/Austria
At the end, thx for all the upcoming posts n answers and a picture of the desired product:

really? :/ I dont like ebay and would prefer a new product... is there no other solution? Like writing to the customers and make out a good price for em to get a new of zen vision m?
Otherwise, i know it doesnt fit here, but does any knows an "classy" player with about 30-60gig... like ipod classic, just for music n maybe photos... I dont need any multimedia .. got touch already...
If anyone knows a good one which looks nice post here, would be awesome
(I hope asking for other brands is allowed :S, otherwise sorry)

Creative Vision M - Radio built into headphon

Hi There,
Thinking of purchasing a Creative Vision M and have a question about the radio. I plan to use my own headphones - I like my noise cancelling Sennheisers. Anyway I read that the radio is partly attached/embedded in the headphones - is this true and therefore if I change to other headphones, how can I receive a decent reception?
Many thanks,
Martin

FM Radio is built into the unit itself. You only need the headphones as an antenna and any headphone can serve as one.

Creative Vision M Voltage Adapt

Dear all,
Planning to purchase Creative Vision M in USA but primarily going to use it in India.
I checked the voltage converter in bestbuy it was showing 0V 50/60Hz.
I feel Creative should have made this product uni'versal voltage. But want to confirm before investing $300.
Please let me know if I need to purchase any accessories before start using in India. (India uses Circular pins for AC plugs).
Apologize if this is repeat question.
Thanks in advacne for help.
Regards
Samir.

Hey sameer I will also be taking it back to India and dont purchase plug pin over here. India u will get that for max 40 bucks.
But are you purchasing for yourself or giving it as a gift to someone. The reason I am saying this is because there is no store for creative in india and also no chance of any repair or return.
What say is it worth taking the risk of buying Creative or play safe and buy an IPod. Surely IPod doesnt give so many problems as I can see with Creative. I have purchased mine but its in backorder right now so I can still cancel my order. Do give your comments of how comfortable are you? about buying Vision M

Creative Vision: M AV cable(watchin movies on

I just got a creative vision:M and i got an AV cable for it but when i play videos through the cable to the TV all i get is sound and a somewhat white and black scratchy picture i dont know what i have to do to be able to watch my videos on my tv? Help!!

Thanks you guys. It would seem I have very littl eoption but to get out my credit card and buy the ugly white s.o.b. Creative should give you loyalty points, man!! I mean, we're being forced to buy the bloody gear against our will, so why not show some sympathy? Fat chance, methinks!
With regard to the length of thew cables reaching the tv, you can buy AV extension kits in any good TV/electrical store if you're feeling too mean to splurge on the RC kit. Also only?available in nappy white!! What gives?
Thanks again?for the feedback you guys.
One last question - the new updated drivers?- what do they do?

Creative Vision:M freezing repeate

I purchased a Creative Zen Vision:M 30 GB back in August, it worked fine until about a week or so ago, when it started freezing repeatedly. Sometimes it freezes in mid-song, and I get an annoying machine gun sound. Sometimes it freezes at the Creative Logo, sometimes it freezes while rebuilding the library, sometimes it freezes when its in "lock" position. I notice that it really likes to freeze if I hit the back button and I want to listen to a song over. I've been resetting the device with a pin in the reset hole, maybe, 5+ times a day. I've reformatted the player from the reset menu, I've gone through the clean up from the reset menu, I've deleted all songs and reinstalled them twice now.
I've gone through the self-fix suggestions in the Knowledege Database. I haven't dropped it, there was no specific cause that started this problem. It is very annoying and difficult to deal with., as I use my mp3 player to jog and to work on my foreign language lessons.
Are there any other solutions to solve this problem, has anyone else had this incessant freezing of a Creative Vision:M, and/or is it time to get an RMA and return the product to Creative?
Thanks for any responses.

I should add that I've reinstalled the firmware, but I have not yet done it since my last reformat of the player. I notice that the firmware is not available for download at this time, correct?

Creative Vision:M Driver Softw

Greetings,
I have recently purchased the Creative Vision:M mp3 player. Unfortunetly, I am unable to install the software as my CD-ROM dri've on my computer is not working. I am wondering if there is any other way I can get the software, perhaps through Creative's website by downloading. Or could any kind soul zip the software up and send it to me.
Thanks
Jason.Singapore

Just remember most people that post on forums only do so because they have a problem. There are a lot of folks out there that never have problems and so they never post. Don't read this forum as an indicator that everyone is having these problems because that would not be true.
I have had mine only a short time, but it has worked flawlessly and I suspect it will continue to do so.
In order to use the Zen to store files, you must turn it on via the menu. Extras, Removable Disk. You can set it for 52 KB, GB, .5 GB, 2 GB, 4 GB 8 GB or 6 GB. Anytime you wish to use this space, you simply turn on the Zen, Go to Extra and Removable Disk, then plug it into the computer. It will show up as a hard dri've.

CREATIVE VISION: M 30GB (NO SOFTWARE)

My friend gave me a 30GB Creative Zen Vision:M & lost the software. It had been opened once. Can I somehow download the software (Installation CD)

)Re: CREATIVE VISION: M 30GB (NO SOFTWARE)2 Ok What Version of Windows Media Player is on the computer? To find out open it.(if it asks to update it Don't) If it looks like this one http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...0/default.aspx it's WMP0? If it looks like this? http://www.microsoft.com/windows/win...0/default.aspx? it's WMP. To find out what Service Pack of Xp you have go to Start>Control Panel>System There it will tell you what Os/Service Pack is installed. You may not need the install disc depending on the info you provide. The download file is quite large so it may take a while to download depending on your internet connection speed. but you can find it here. http://files.filefront.com/Creative+.../fileinfo.html

I was just wondering since i have my usb charger from my Zen Micro, can i use it with a Creative Vision m? Because what i've heard they are no longer coming with an ac adapter.
Thankyou!

The standard will work so no need to fret about that.

Creative Vision:M -- FIRMWARE WARN

DO NOT UPGRADE TO THE LATEST FIRMWARE, CREATIVE HAS DISABLED FM RECORDING ABILITY TO PLEASE THE RECORDING INDUSTRY!
Quoted:
(Interesting (and I think important) aside: I recently updated the firmware on my Creative Vision:M mp3 player, a player I've absolutely loved for its features, ergonomics, screen quality, you name it, there was hardly a thing about it I could find fault with. As the new firmware was installing I browsed the release notes... looking for the standard blah blah blah on what's fixed, what's new. The very last line of the notes said (paraphrasing), This firmware upgrade will disable your FM recording capability(!). WTF? It was too late for me to stop the upgrade -- sure enough, I now have a Creative Vision:M sans FM recording capability, (a feature which I was quite fond of)! Creative doesn't say whether it's RIAA induced, I have no idea why they did this... but if it IS more DRM crap, what a crock!)Message Edited by Segmented on 0--2006 04:49 PM

I thought it was already established that the removal of the FM recording funtion was due to unavoidable legal obligations.
Now I'll tell you this, when I learned there was a new firmware availible. I read the release notes as well as the comments from the consumers posted on Creative message boards and other websites. I decided that I would be much more satisfied with my Zen Vision M if I left it alone.
If I had not researched the firmware first, and just upgraded, I'd be pretty pissed off, and would have no one to blame but myself.

Creative Vision M help

Hi, Ive had a new laptop with windows 7 for around 6 months and a creative vision M for around 5 years. The vision M has worked fine with the laqtop till this weekend. On saturday I thought it would be a good idea to move all my music onto the laptop, incase the mp3 player ever broke. I started the process but an hour in i accidently removed the usb cable. Today I tried to start the process again and now it says "device driver not succesfully installed" when i try to connect it. However, the player still says "docked" but the pc just wont recognise what the problem is. Has anyone else encountered this problem? Im anxious to fix it as only my vision M has my music on it, and now I cant take anything off it, or put anything on. Does anywhere know if I can download a new driver?
would really appreciate any help

Well I finally decided to format?all and it did so(took about 0 minutes). Now when I plug it in it reads it and has the little window on the bottom of the screen that reads "Docked". And when it showed "Docked" which only happened every once in a while before I formated it if it said this then when I tried to add new firmware it would seem like it was working but crash right before it ended. Now even though it says "Docked" when I try to?add new?firmware it says the Zen is not connected.

Creative vision m 30gb - out of stock everywhere, is it being phased o

I was planning on using my circuit city giftcard to soon buy a creative vision m, but I noticed that most of the stores in my state say it's out of stock and the product wasn't available for shipping. Also, if you check newegg.com, the creative vision m use to be listed on there, but it's completely disappeared which is annoying me to me. My guess is that these stores are selling off their remaining stock. I just want to know if creative has discontinued this product because I don't want this video ipod. It's a possibility that their about to introduce a new hard dri've mp3 player, but I'm not sure.

Man I don't know why everyone is saying these are out of stock I see them everywhere. My local walmart has about 5 in the counter last time I was there. I also see then at best buy and circuit city. They might be a little harder to find then the ipod but they are out there. Maybe demand is up and they are just selling fast. If people where smart they would buy the VM over the ipod any day. There is no way the ipod is better then the VM but try to tell people that.
