Flash based AA battery mp3 player with AM and FM rad

There are so many mp3 players out there, but none that have the features I want. I also want variable speed playback, so I can play lectures back at speeds between half and double normal speed. I listen to many lectures at around .4 times normal speed on my pc. I want to also do that on a portable mp3 player. I also want a nice sized display. I don't want the smallest possible player. As long as it will fit in a typical shirt pocket I would be happy. That means a player up to around the size of an audio cassette but perhaps a bit thicker. i also want a player with many buttons. I hare using a joystic and multi teired menus. I want to switch from mp3 music to the radio (or back) with just one press of a button.

Flash MP3 player with AM and FM rad

Why is it that the only MP3 players I see with AM and FM are CD based? Some people have a great desire to listen to AM radio for sporting events, news, or talk radio. It is so annoying for me to have to carry a separate radio with my n200 so that I can have my music as well as AM radio. The funny thing is that I listen to AM radio much more than FM. I usually like to either listen to my music or to AM radio. I also have an MP3 cd player with AM and FM, however that is even larger than both the n200 plus a small separate radio. Since I don't want to constantly swap the earphones from the n200 to the radio and back, I am also carrying two sets of earphones.
My ideal flash mp3 player would be
) At least 4 gigs
2) have both AM and FM radio
3) Run on a AA battery.
AA batteries hold 2.5 times the power of a AAA yet are often lower in price.
4) have a decent sized display.
5) Have a separate button that with one press switches from mp3 music to the radio or back.
6) Supports subscription music
7) has a built in clock with the time constantly displayed, even when the player is off.
While such a player would be slightly larger than the Nano Plus, it would be so much more functional.. There are still some who want the smallest possible player so I wouldn't want to see such a player replace the Nano Plus, however it would be nice if such a player would replace the TX FM which is too similar to the Nano Plus(who really cares whether the USB plug is on the player itself?).

I think the reason you don't see AM radios in 00% digital products (such as MP3 players) is not enough demand to tackle two significant technical issues:
The ferrite-coil antennas used by most portable AM radios take up a lot of room on circuit boards; some MP3 players are too small for them, while others simply can't give up valuable circuit-board real estate for a feature used by so few people. OTOH, most portable FM radios use the headphone cord as an antenna, so they can be smaller.</LI>
AM frequencies and channel spacing vary around the world in ways that make a "one size fits all" digital solution very hard to implement. The US AM band runs from 535-705 kHz with 0-kHz spacing (540, 550, ... , 700); in other parts of the world it still runs from 535-605 kHz, and/or uses 9-kHz spacing which is incompatible. OTOH, nearly all major countries, except Japan, have adopted FM bands in the 87.5 (88 in the US) to 08 MHz range, and all spacing schemes are multiples of the narrowest one, 50 kHz (it's 00 kHz in most countries, 200 kHz in the US), so a digital FM tuner covering 87.5-08 MHz with 50-kHz spacing will work everywhere but Japan.</LI>
Also, digital-radio considerations in the US may inhibit the sale of new AM radios here. The US digital-radio standard is an IBOC (in-band, on-channel) system, where the analog and digital broadcasts share the same frequency and signal. Though this is supposed to allow simultaneous analog and digital broadcasts as long as broadcasters want them (unlike DAB systems in other countries and digital TV even in the US, where the digital signal is separate and broadcasters must eventually give up their analog spectrum), even IBOC broadcasters will eventually go all-digital. Since the bandwidth of digital AM is so limited (at present it only promises "FM quality" while digital FM promises "CD quality") and digital limits analog sound quality (especially on AM where it's poor to begin with), it's likely AM will want to go 00% digital long before FM does. Limiting analog AM radios now makes it easier for AM to make that painful transition.

MP3 player with AM and FM tun

It is so annoying not having an AM tuner on my MP3 player. It means that I need to carry a separate radio when I want to listen to AM. It would be nice if Creative came out with a flash memory based MP3 player series that has an AM and FM tuner, uses a AA battery, has a larger display than on the N200, and comes in capacities of 52 meg, one gig, and two gig(with larger capacities to be released later as flash memory prices drop).

The mass market listens to both AM and FM. Sports enthusiasts listen to sports on AM. Others listen to news or talk radio on AM. I am not a sports enthsiast, however I do like listening to news and talk radio on AM. If the FM spectrum was larger, it would be nice if these stations could move to FM, however in large cities the FM band is already crowded. FM is definitely the better technology, although cetain programming(news, talk radio, sports, etc.) isn't available on FM. I also like to sometimes listen to FM radio, as well as my favorite music from my CDs. Eventually when sattelite receivers get much smaller and the monthly fee smaller(or perhaps later there won't be a monthly fee?) then I would like a sattelite radio revei'ver that is also a flash memory MP3 player.

Mp3 player with movie

can I sync my mp3 player with itunes and download movies with no problems.

Assuming your MP3 player is an iPod with video capabilities, then yes, it is quite possible to sync with iTunes and download movies. That's exactly what iTunes is designed to do, and I do it frequently.
However, I doubt if anybody here would know, better than you, if you can do it with no problems. Have you tried?

Flash-based MP3 player with specified frequency respon

I'm looking into buying a flash-memory based MP3 player. I'm trying to get a quality player that has linear audio output. I am usually listening to Baroque music, both from CDs and from my own recordings. Here are my detailed requirements:
- USB 2.0 hi-speed
- flash memory
- powered by standard batteries (AAA or AA)
- specified frequency response, S/N ratio and THD
For example, on the Zen Nano Plus specifications web page, I read
- Signal to Noise Ratio: up to 90dB
- Frequency Response: 20Hz to 20kHz
- Harmonic Response Output: 0.%
This appears quite weasel-wordy. For example, a S/N ratio of "up to" something says nothing ("I am up to 00 years old"), reasonable wording would be "S/N ratio of at least x dB". The frequency response does not specify the attenuation over the given frequency range, -30dB at 20Hz would not be ruled out. I prefer frequency response charts that show the function "attenuation (dB) over frequency on log scale". For example, those are readily available for many headphones and all reasonable microphones. Further, I can only guess that "Harmonic Response output" means THD. Moreover, there is no data for stereo separation/crosstalk.
Since these data points relate to the headphones output of the MP3 player, measuring them is fairly easy, since no actual sound waves are produced.
Has anyone measured any of the Creative flash products and can post the respecti've charts and data?

Thank you for your answers.
Yes, I'm technically minded (I'm German, in case you think that explains it :-) I just posted hoping for the off-chance that someone was curious enough to have performed some real measurements.
The idea for generating the WAV file would be NOT to try to record a real oscillator, but instead create the WAV file with a PC audio editor where you can say "give me a kHz tone for 0 seconds". You would do this on a log scale from, say 20 Hz to 20 kHz, save as WAV, move the resulting file to the MP3 player, play it, and check the output levels for each frequency. Calculating THD is probably more ambitious, but if your 'scope shows some frequency skew, that would probably be interesting, too. I don't know whether a traditional 'scope has enough amplitude resolution to deal with 90 dB S/N ratio (that's a factor of 30000 between signal and noise floor).
I don't think I can attach files

Flash MP3 Player with Timer

Heres the thing:
I have developped a mp3 player with a tutorial, and now I need it to mute when it comes a certain time like 23pm and then unmute at 10am for example.
I am a really noob at this and need real help to get this done, its for a christmas family project
The real idea is to set an hour to mute the sound and another to unmute it.
The player I have done its the one in the following tutorial http://www.republicofcode.com/tutorials/flash/as3musicplayer/6.php
I really hope you guys can help me ! :S
thanks in advance

if you just want to check the time when your app starts, use:
function playSong(mySong:Number):void{
var myTitle = my_songs[mySong].@TITLE;
var myArtist = my_songs[mySong].@ARTIST;
var myURL = my_songs[mySong].@URL;
title_txt.text = myTitle;
artist_txt.text = myArtist;
if (my_channel){
my_channel.stop();
my_sound = new Sound();
my_sound.load(new URLRequest(myURL));
my_channel = my_sound.play();
my_channel.addEventListener(Event.SOUND_COMPLETE, onNext);
    var myTime = new Date();
    var myHour:Number = myTime.getHours();
var st:SoundTransform=my_channel.soundTransform;
   if ((myhour>=10)&&(myhour<=(22)){
st.volume=1;
} else {
st.volume=0;
my_channel.soundTransform=st;

Create a very simple mp3 player with flash

newbie with flash...
with the FLVPlayback component i can get a nice looking basic player for .flv files easily...
Q: is there some way to set up the same functions to create a very simple mp3 player with flash?

Search Google for "Flash MP3 tutorial" and if you know which version of actionscript you plan to use, try substituting that for "Flash"

Using the mp3 player with various comput

Hello,
I was wondering if I can use the mp3 player with more than one computer, that's to say, not only with the first one. I'm in the USA now but I li've in Italy, so if I buy it here and use it here to download songs, then will I be able to use it in Italy too? Meaning, will I be able to use it with another computer and download others song on it's
And another question, concerning the battery, what happens when it dies? Because on the mp3 player homepage I read something about replacing it but I would like to know more about it. The battery is a big concern because I'm choosing between Ipod and this one, and on the discussion forums of Ipod, it wasn't very reassuring. While I had heard that Creative's battery is good.
Thank you very much. Please answer soon.

Lithium Ion batteries last on average 3 years at peak performance from date of manufacture. More here in the Zen FAQ at Nomadness.net.

HT1460 Where can I find a dockable MP3 player with no games on it?

I understand factory pre-loaded games can't be removed from an iPod. Apparently they serve some vital purpose. Who sells a dockable MP3 player with no games on it? I would gladly trade in one or more of my iPods for something like that.

fabulous, thankyou. The flashplayer is great. P7 thing looks
brilliant
too - good to know it's there if I ever need it. Thanks
again.

How to make an Mp3 player, with some neat looks?

Hey guys,
I need to make an mp3 player, with some nice looks.
Please help!

Mp3 player with built in speaker

HI,
I am looking for a basic mp3 player with a built in speaker under $100.
I just want to listen to podcasts that I download on my macbook and then
transfer to an mp3 player. I don't need video or lot of bells and whistles - but a built-in-speaker is crucial as well as being able to marry with a mac.
Simple drag and drop would be ideal.
Thanks a lot for any suggestions.

MP3 players come in a range of options and prices. iPods are probably the best, but are also among the pricier. You can see a bunch of options here: http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Audio/iPod-MP3-Players/abcat0201000.c?id=abcat020100 0&searchterm=mp3%20player&searchresults=1
Since this is an iTunes Forum, please be aware that the automatic sync option for iTunes only applies to iPods, and does not work with other players. You can however use your MP3 tracks both in iTunes and in your portable player.

Charge mp3 player with iphone auto charger

What does this have to do with the iPhone?
As the manufacturer of the MP3 player what the charging specs/requirements are.

Is Creative going to make a mp3 player with the 24-bit Crystaliz

I have dropped my Zen Touch 20 GB a few times (I know, I'm clumsy), and the most recent drop really damaged it. It still plays, but I can only scroll down with the touch pad (scrolling up goes down as well), and rarely the song skips forward randomly (progress bar does not skip forward though, this has happened ever since I got much Touch, but it happens slightly more frequently now).
I've tried pushing in on the touch pad as some have suggested, and resetting the Zen Touch did not help.
I was considering investing in a Zen Sleek Photo, but I think I will stick my Touch since I mostly use Shuffle play anyways.
However, has Creative announced any plans to create a mp3 that uses the 24-bit Crystalizer from the X-Fi soundcard series? I have a X-Fi Fatlty edition, and the sound is absolutely amazing, it blows standard CD and mp3 players away. If Creative made a mp3 player with the Crystalizer, I would buy it no questions asked, death to the iPod!
... That's IF Creative makes one, so does anyone happen to know? It may not even be technically possible, but heck if I know

Yes, it is technically possible and Creative will incorporate the X-Fi technology in its future MP3 players.
This was confirmed by Creative CEO, Mr Sim Wong Hoo when Creative announced its quarterly earnings about a month ago.
At that time, Mr Sim also said that the earliest we can see the X-Fi technology on Creative's MP3 players might be early next year.
But as Creative will be releasing a yet-to-be-announced product in Paris tommorrow (8 dec), i'm not sure if we will get to see it earlier than expected!
Just keeping my fingers crossed, but what ever new product Creative release tmr, it will definately make my xmas more merry!

Anyone with an iRiver MP3 player with USB host por...

Any iRiver MP3 player with USB 1.1 host port will interface with your n95. This will allow you to read and write to the mem card of your phone! So you can u/l sound tracks and d/l your images from and to your MP3 player.
My H340 is a 40GB version so I have got mass storage attached to my phone.
If only it was WiFi or Bluetooth as well!!
www.blogn95.blogspot.com

I just plug my MP3 player into the phone and browse from the player!
No pain really!
