MediaSource 5 for Zen V Plus help on time scal

Help!!! I love the MediaSource and I have left to discover its wonderous powers. Im not sure what I did but the Time Scaling doesnt work anymore. I checked the Help and it advised to keep under the Playback tab on the Settings, to keep Digital playback ticked. I havent touched the settings at all, and its as if the time scaling just turned itself off. Can someone help me out Also , are there any other tricks that I can use on MediaSource :mansurprised:

This happened to me. I think it's merely a case of the device freezing - that's why it appears to be in USB mode. The Zen will need resetting, using the small indented reset button under the power-on switch. Then, hopefully, the computer will recognise it again. If it doesn't, try rebooting the computer. Then try Control Panel --> System --> Hardware --> Device Manager --> Windows Portable Devices. The player should be listed there. Try disabling it (not uninstalling) and then enabling it again. Hope this helps

Can't Download Any Firmware for Zen V Plus

? I've tried to update my little old Zen V Plus by downloading the latest firmware and applications, but I keep getting error messages. One error says "C:\Windows\system32\regsvr32.exe not found" and the other error has the code of 2472332. I'm running Windows XP Media Edition (2002) and Windows Media Player . My Creative Media Explorer won't let me add new media, and while I know I can do this via the Windows Media Player, I'd actually prefer to use the Creative Explorer. What am I doing wrong here? I've done device manager and updated the drivers, and my Zen V Plus is still detected. My USB is fine. Is there anything else I should do before I uninstall and reinstall all my Creative software? I still have my disc, and upon reinstalling the Media Explorer, the option to add media was greyed out. I'd truly appreciate any suggestions, and thanks in advance!

Just an update on my initial post, if anyone even noticed!
I was able to install new firmware, but not any software like Creative Source. It simply won't open. This goes for the Media Explorer as well. Using my disc, I'm still getting the same error codes. The video converter opened, but it doesn't recognize my player as being plugged in. I was able to roll back to Windows Media Player 0, but my system wouldn't let me install Service Pack 2. So now what? I'd like to be able to convert videos and add music through the Media Explorer instead of Windows Explorer. Once again, any thoughts on this would be helpful, thanks. I'm really at my wits' end.

Zen V Plus Help, Keeps Scanning Through Music.

I just a Zen V Plus today and I loaded some music onto it right away. The moment I tried to play the music, it scans through the list and then stops, without playing anything. For example: I tried to play track 3 on one of the cd playlists and it scanned through the rest of the CD and got back to track one, where it stopped and wouldn't play anything. I've tried using different playlists, but it still does the same thing, scans to number , then sto

well my mom gave me a creative zen v plus but she lost the cd that comes with it. how do i put music on it's?

You don't need the Creative software to transfer music.
You do need Windows XP (SP2) & Windows Media Player 0 or .
You can get manuals from the 'Support->Product Documentation' link in the page banner above. The link includes the longer manual that comes on the disc. It's probably worth downloading them & having a read.
does not normally appear as a removable disk. If it does, the 'Removable Disk' feature is enabled. That means you can add data to a section of the Zen VP memory just like a USB disk. But any music you put there will not be seen by the player in its music library. And it uses space up that you could otherwise use for music.
The manual explains how to enable and disable the removable disk feature.
With XP SP2 & WMP 0 or , you can drag & drop content using Windows Explorer and the Zen VP icon in 'My Computer'. Make sure you put it in the right directories (the director names will help you).Message Edited by daytona955 on 07-05-200707:4 AM

Zen V Plus Help Ple

I've had a stone for a while and decided to upgrade to the Zen V plus after finding a good deal on amazon, Anyway for the first week or so it worked perfectley (although it wouldn't play via the USB on my car stereo like the stone did) the other day it decides to freeze up and now is displaying "Firmware problem" I tried downloading the restore programme off of the support section of the site but its now saying its not connecting to the pc (pc says its not connected and mp3 screen just shows the error message instead of saying docked) so the restore programme only displays "mp3 player not connected" Help please

First, charge your player overnight to make sure it has a full charge. Remove?ALL Creative software from your computer?and roll back the Windows Media Player to 0. Then re-add your software and plug in your player. That is the easy way to get your player to work. Hope this method hel
ps.
If it doesn't, then I suggest you do a search at the top of page and see all the different things people have done to get their players to work. If that doesn't help, contact support by e-mail.

Zen Nano Plus- help can't turn it

thanks, i tried it and now it works

Update For Zen V Plus Video Conver

Is there an update for Creative Video Coverter for my Zen V Plus? I got way to many problems with this converter. It wont let me choose the quality settings, its always set on "Good Quality" 2. When I convert a 3mb video it comes out to 79mb. Please I need a better Video Converter for my Zen V Plus. Its says the player supported avi, xvid, divx, any other codecs when I bought it online now I find out it only supports some format called DIB. What is that? Can download this codec anywhere?PLEASE FIX THIS COVERTER!!!!!!!!!!

Unfortunatly the site you bought it from had incorrect information on it. That is quite a bit problem with the internet these days.
When purcashing these types of devices it best to reference the manufacturers website to verify specs just because of situations like this. There isn't an updated converter for the Zen V Plus, it only supports uncompressed video content the form of DIB AVI files. While most content can be converted to the 28x96, 5fps DIB Avi file format supported by the device the files will always end up large due to the fact the device can not support comrpessed video.
Many people have asked for a better codec in a future firmware version, but I doubt the little device has the memory and horsepower to handle mpeg video decoding.

Belt clip for zen stone plus with spea

I've had a Zen Stone Plus with Speaker for a little less than a year now. The speaker makes it wonderful for riding bike trails without using earphones to stay alert to the surroundings. It's worked quite well when used with a (technically unsupported) non-Windows PC. A careless person in a store collided with me yesterday, flinging it to the ground, with no damage to the electronics. It is disappointing to find, however, that there seems to be no replacement clips available for the one she damaged. Does anyone know if the clips sold with the multi skin packs for earlier models, sold elsewhere, might be the same spring clip

Hi,
Yeah..appreciate it very much.
I'll pass this to someone here for their reconsideration.
Cheers.

Install for Zen microphoto? Help PLEAS

Hi, I have a zen microphoto, and had installed it on my laptop using the disk a couple of months ago. I lost my entire hard dri've, thus...the installation of my mp3 player, and, of course, I left the installation disk lying on the coffee table and my dog decided to make it a new chew toy and snapped it in half. I tried looking, but where can I find software to download to get my player working again? I already tried just plugging it in and seeing if it showed up in "My Computer" so I could just drop files into it, but it alas is not working. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Zen V Plus - track seek times completely screwed

When seeking within an audiobook track, the time index on screen will advance to whatever I command it, but the actual audio WILL NOT advance-- when I let go the joystick to resume playing, the audio picks up from right where I initially pressed the joystick!
This bug has manifested itself in the bookmark function too. It allows me to set a bookmark, but when I select the bookmark, it resumes playing from somewhere totally different than where I set the bookmark.
This is an mp3 format file, windows explorer reports it as 28Kbps file. If it is a standard bitrate and not variable, why should I be having this problem? Any ideas how I can fix this?
thanks

I'll try to answer your questions:-. Using XP (home edition) SP 22. Using ZenV Plus, 2 gb2.a? Have used Creative Media, Windows Media Player, but prefer Overdri've Media Console (simpler, faster, great)3. Have never tried to load books from another computer.4. Do not purchase or rent books. I get them all from library.4.a. I have used Net Library but get most of them through SEO Library Consortium. That's where I downloaded the Overdri've Media Console software from.5. They are regular "audio" books, recorded on tracks. I have gotten some with as many as 3 tracks. I think the track sizes generally must correlate to the size/capacity of a CD.6. I believe they have all been wma format and they are "licensed" to you for a specific period, just like when you check them out from any library. I had the same problem with keeping up with the story line at first until I figured out the navigation and particularly the "seek" and "bookmark" functions.
Time bar:? The time shown on the left is the time that has elapsed in that particular track, and the time shown on the right is the time that is left on that track. Seek:? When you access the "seek" function, you then have to hold the joystick button to the left (back) or right (forward) position until you get to your desired?time mark on the bar. When you start it goes slow and the longer you hold it in that position, the faster it moves. As soon as you let go of it, it stops moving and if that is where you want to start listening, you push "in" on the button to start the play from that point. You cannot seek either backward or forward into another track. You can only seek within that specific track. Bookmark:? When you are at a point where you want to set a bookmark, it is best to pause the playback and then set your bookmark. When you select the bookmark function you will get a screen where you can set multiple bookmarks and you would use the navigation button to select the bookmark position you want to use. Then you would push the navigation button in to set the bookmark in that position. When you want to go back to that place in your book, you go to Music Library>bookmarks and select which bookmark position you want to go to. TRICKY PART:? Normally, you would see the Track # in the upper LH of the display, but if you are playing from a bookmarked position, the player will display the Bookmark Position # instead. The?name of the book will scroll across the display and show the actual track number, but depending on how long the name of the book is, your display may black out before?it gets to the track #. The time line at the bottom of the display will show your?position in the actual track?where the bookmark was placed. The playback will continue until the time line reaches the end of that track and will then stop. To?continue the book from that point, you have to go back to the track listing and start the playback on the next track. Navigation General:?If you push the?joystick button to the left or right?and hold it, while in any track or bookmark, it will almost do the same thing as seek, except that as soon as you let go of it, it will start playback whereas with the seek function, it will just stop and you have to push in on the button to start the playback. Also, just like the seek function, it will only go back to the beginning or forward to the end of that particular track. If you quickly flick the joystick button to the right or left, instead of holding it, it will advance to the next track, wither back or forward.
Hope this helps some!

HELP! Brand New Zen Stone Plus WON'T TURN

Just received the product today, downloaded and installed the latest software. Charged the unit for 3 hours and successfully loaded mp3 onto the player. Following every direction and clicked the "safely remove hardware" option. All ready to go... press the on/off button... NOTHING HAPPENED! No screen! LED light did not turn on! NOTHING!
So went to Creative site and follow the "fix it myself" direction, reset the player did not work, formatting the player did not work. There is no firmware download available for Zen Stone Plus (only Zen Stone), so I could not try that option.
I am starting to think there is a defect in my player. Do you guys have any suggestion on what I should do? Does any know how to contact Creative's US customer support (email address and/or phone numbers)? And please don't refer me to the 3 dollars to 30 mins support because I already spent money expecting to buy a non-defecti've product.
I tried looking for the customer support number before posting this message. I did not know Creative have such a poor customer support system! I clicked the "email support" on its site and it directed me to some "fix the player yourself" page (I also tried those solution but did not help), and does not lead to any customer support number! HORRIBLE!Message Edited by misellu on 07-3-20070:6 PM
****** UPDATE*********
Thanks for everyone's suggestions.
Since I didn't want to spend more time to fuzz over a defecti've product, I returned my Zen Stone Plus to Amazon (I did this because I know sending it to Creative would take much longer time before I receive a replacement). Amazon sent me a new one in about 3 days at no charge (and free return shipping). The new one works fine now and does everything its suppose to do (so far...).
Just like I wrote it when I posted the problem, I tried different time intervals and it still wouldn't turn on. I couldn't have lock the unit because it requires power on to turn on the lock (which I was unable to turn on the unit).
The lesson I learn here is think about the product's customer support and where I am buying from before purchasing anything online. I would definitely think twice before buying Creative's products again.
Message Edited by misellu on 08-05-200702:2 PM

mine wont turn on after almost two weeks since i bought my player. i went to the store where i bought my player, asked them to replace my player right there and then (because i firmly believed that it was a factory defect) but to no avail. so i let the creative support checked my player and voila! my player was infected with WORM VIRUS!!! they fixed my player, deleted the virus and was all set after 2weeks. i scanned my computer, found A LOT OF WORM VIRUS, deleted them before connecting my player to this computer. after transferring files to my player & disconnecting it from this pc, it wont turn on again!! and i havent used it for at least 0mins since i got it back! darn!! i'm gonna return it again to the storea and ask for creative support's help again. does anybody know if there is an anti-virus available for zen products?
