MuVo TX FM radio prob

Hi!
I have a muvo tx fm (256mb) player which was bought in France.
For a while the fm radio worked just fine. Then the player started to freeze if I try to tune to any station.
Out of approximately 0 attempts I can get the radio work only once. But even if it turns on I still can't tune to any frequency, the player just freezes again.
The only thing I can do after it freezes is to disconnect it from the battery and reconnect again.
I have the firmware version .00.04.
I tried the latest firmware .3.03 but with it the player stops responding right after I switch the radio on. So i downgraded back to the original firmware.
Anyway i still can't get the radio working.
thnx and regards,
Konstantin

st problem:
I'm suffering of the same problem. The player just freezes at 89.00 Mhz when I try to tune in the radio. It's too bad that one need to remove/ replace the battery before it starts again. I am in possession of a Muvo N200 GB.:angry:
2nd problem:
When you try to jump to the next song, the player simply sto
ps.
But the other way around, jumping backwards isn't any problem at all. But it's pretty annoying hearing the same songs over and over again when having capacity of GB.:mansurprised: Could somebody help me, please?

Muvo N200 FM Radio - no stereo so

I have a Muvo N200 52GB with latest firmware (.2.0).
The only problem I have with it is that the FM Radio sound output is mono even if the display indicates stereo reception.
I can achieve stereo sound if I pull out the headphone jack a little way but the connection is not secure if I do this and I don't have to do this to listen to WMA/MP3 music.
This could be down to firmware but I have only seen one other post with this problem.
I will try to reflash just in case but would appreciate any other suggestions.
In my opinion, even if FM reception is mono, sound output should still be directed to both right and left channels and not just one (left channel in my case).

Obviously the player is faulty as even if it's in mono you will get output from both channel. You can try reinstalling the firmware on the player and see if that helps just in case. If not, you should return to creative and get it repair.

MuVo v200 plaing radio when connected to

Hi,
can I somehow configure MuVo V200 to play Radio (through it's earphones) when it's connected to PC? So to save the battery's when I'm near PC.

Yes, I did - with no result.
But your advices lead me to one more solution, of which I hadn't thought before. I've tried to install the latest firmware (.2.03) in the recovery mode. And guess what? My V200 is fully functional again.
I'm not quite sure if it was the recovery mode or the slightly different file version which made the trick. This time I've used the MuVoV200_PCFW_LF__2_03.exe file (without the "e" suffix). But I'm almost sure I've also tried it in the normal mode before, which lead me to the broken radio function as in case of the MuVoV200_PCFW_LF__2_03e.exe file.
What are the differences between MuVoV200_PCFW_LF__2_03 and MuVoV200_PCFW_LF__2_03e? After extracting these files I can see that their contents differ.

Creative Vision:M Radio prob

In the US my vision:m had no problem picking up radio stations. But now in Ireland when i do an autoscan, it picks up nothing.
Anyone know why this is?
Thanks.

Sounds like a bad connection internally or something else going out. Your best bet would be to contact Customer Support about your warranty status. Also, just because I know CS is going to ask you to try this, you may want to update your firmware just to eliminate the possibility of a software issue, and because you can tell them you already did it.
Also, please leave the cursing off the forums. We try to be 'family friendly' around here.
Good luck!

MuVo TX FM memory prob

HELP! I just bought a Muvo 52mb TX FM. I converted my mp3's to WMA format to reduce the size so it can play more songs. When I tried to load 480mb worth of WMA music I was only able to move 228mb worth. Properties show I still have 267mb of free space but I get an error when adding even more file. Since then I loaded the lastest firmware and still no luck. Any suggestions?

Hi, Did you just transfer them straight in as files, not in folders or anything? - if it works in the same way as my Muvo N200, (from the product specs I think it does) there's a limit to how many files you put in the root directory like that. You have to put them in folders first and then transfer the folders onto the player as if they were files. This can either be done just by copy and paste of folders into your 'muvo tx fm media explorer' directory in 'my computer' (just like the media explorer window was for a floppy disc), or folders can be created in media source. There's a step by step explanation of how to do this (with pictures) here.
Folders are really useful for organization too, as you call name them things like 'rock' or 'classical' etc. and then sort your tracks, or give them album names!
Of course if you've already done this, or your muvo works differently to mine, this will be no use to you, but just in case...

Muvo tx fm driver prob

everytime i connect my muvo tx fm to my computer, i always have to install the driver because my computer does not recognize my unit. do i need to update my driver so that i will install it once?

We've seen from some Nano Plus users that the latest version on new players has FM Recording back on again so we'll just have to wait for Creative to post a later version to the website. PB

Muvo tx fm sound prob

i just upgraded my firmware successfully from default to version .9.0... after that, i noticed the sound become too loud even at volume #... it also lost the crispness of the sound (radio and music files)...
i also read that there's no way to revert to the default version... does creative have solution on this?

Why you upgraded the firmware ?
you can't go back now. If you have read the messages here in the forums
you have seen why its very bad to upgrade, for no reson.
sorry....

Vision M FM Radio Prob

I got my Vision M last Thursday (today is monday). I installed the newest firmware update (.30.02)when I got the thing, then loaded a few albums. Everything worked fine. The FM radio sounded great, I was able to set radio stations, and record shows.
Today, though, the radio stopped working. The "FM Radio" option is still there in the menu, but when I select it I get no signal. (It isn't that the reception is bad, there simply is no singal.) When I unplug the headphones I don't get the "no antenna" message that it used to give me. I tried the "autoscan" feature, but this seemed to hang the device. After resetting it I went into recovery mode and tried "clean up", but that didn't bring back the radio. I reinstalled the firmware. Still no change. I'm beginning to fear that this may just be a hardware problem and I'll have to send the player in to the shop. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I bought my vision M from amazon and have the same problem . when I received the device I was able to do and autoscan and work fine then I heard several stations and no problem. But after one day or two I could not find FM in the Menu. I thought I had a firmware problem and I downloded the latest firmaware .30.02 .. surprise FM showed for a couple days and then I have tried everything Resetting options , reloading another time Firmware , clean up and formatting none of these options has allowed me to have FM back in the menu.
Have you fixed the problem..please let me know..

FM Radio prob

I recently purchased creative zen about a month ago and one day it froze at the creative logo and so i formated the hardisk and did a disk cleanup and then ran the 2.x.x.x whateva update it start working right but now all of a sudden i dont even have the FM Radio feature on the main menu i have checked where you can customize the menu and add things and it wasnt even there. The model i have is a Creative Zen Micro and if anyone can help me thanks in advance.

I know this topic is long since dead but I really need some help with a similar problem.
Recently I have been having the same problem since I updated from .42.x to .62.0 version of the Zen Vision M firm ware and when i tried going back to an older firm ware which the radio was working on for my brother in the display options menu it only made things worse by adding two new options with no label and they do absolutely nothing I was wondering if anyone else had any ideas because my personal experence with the tech support has been far from being even decent and I would like to avoid them if at all possible.

Muvo TX FM 512MB prob

I got a TX FM for Christmas and then a little over a week ago I couldn't get it to turn on. I didn't do anything to troubleshoot the problem for a couple days. Then I decided I had better take care of it, and sat down in front of my computer to try and find a solution. But before I started I tried to turn the Muvo on one last time, and low an behold, it worked, and continued to work for the next couple of days. Then I had the same problem again. This time I didn't wait and see if it would come on later and started looking for a solution on the Internet immediately. First I tried to format it, but that didn't work. Then I updated the firmware. It still wouldn't turn on. Finally I tried changing the battery, but I didn't think that would work because I was pretty sure the last time I had it on before it stopped working the battery meter showed that it still had half a charge. But to my surprise it did work, so I figured that I was mistaken about the battery meter. Earlier tonight I had been listing to it while I was working and turned it off for a second to talk to someone. When I tried to turn it back on it wouldn't respond. So I stuck it in my pocket, very frustrated, and wanting to get off work so I could come home and post this message and hope someone could help me. About fi've minutes latter I tried to turn it on again and it worked. Then I turned off and tried to turn it back on again, but it wouldn't come on. So I waited another fi've or so minuets and I was able to get it to come on again. But after turning it off again the problem returned. I went through this cycle one more time and then stopped trying. When I got home I couldn't get it to come on at all, So I tried formating it, but it still doesn't work. If someone knows how to fix this I would be very grateful.

All you can try is the standard recovery and update procedure. Try downloading the latest driver and firmware from the website. Install the driver file. After you have installed the driver, press and hold the PLAY button, continue holding the button while inserting the player into the USB port for about 0-5 sec. Run the firmware update file and check/tick the 'Format Data Area' check box and click on 'Start'.
If this doesn't help then you need to either return it where you bought it or contact Creative Support.

Strange MuVo sq 5.0GB prob

My MuVo 2 5GB FM mp3 player has ceased to operate in what to me seems a very odd way. I'd like to see if anyone else has seen this particular malfunction.
After finishing listening to an audio book, I connected the player to my PC, navigated to the appropriate folder, deleted the book files (mp3), and downloaded some new audio files (wma this time) into the same folder. After the download was complete, I turned off the player and plugged it in to recharge. As usual, the battery state and external power icons flashed alternately, but after about 30 minutes, the display went blank. At that point I disconnected the transformer and hit to power button.
Now the strange part. The display came on showing the date and indicating a full charge, but in addition, one of the files that I had loaded earlier began to scroll, continuously, across the screen from right to left. And, both the power and menu buttons became inoperati've; that is, I could not access any of the menu options, nor could I turn the player off.
By removing and replacing the battery, I was able to access the recovery mode and move through the options. However, none of the options appeared to have any effect except the reboot. When I selected this, I was taken back to the scrolling display and the buttons once again became inoperati've. So, for now it's just a paperweight with a scrolling display.
Anyone have any ideas what has happened? Any ideas as to how to go about fixing it's I will contact Creative tech support and the reseller, but I don't know how successful I'll be in either getting it fixed or replaced.

I have the same problem. My MuVo^2 has also ceased to operate with this strange problem. It simply doesn't go anywhere once I put the battery on just the way you did. Is there any solution to this problem?
