MuVo2 playli

Hi
I have a MuVo 2 and use Mediasource software.
When creating playlists (in the usual way following instructions), I end up with a separate folder in my actual player lists that duplicates the playlist title and contents - if I delete it off, the playlist content disappears, but having another folder takes up valuable space.
Can anyone tell me if this is a regular feature or if I am doing something wrong when creating playlists?
thanks

There was a recent Muvo2 driver update for MediaSource.
Connect your Muvo2 to your system, then go to Creative's <A HREF="http://us.creative.com/support/downloads/su.asp]Software AutoUpdate page[/url].

MuVo2 not uploading playli

My new MuVo2 does not seem to upload playlists which have been created in Mediasource. Also, in the'sources' window on media centre software (V2.03.29) there is no player 'icon', and no settings button to go into - thus I can't configure to upload playllists and files within them & create directories - as explained in the Mediasource HELP file.
So far the only way I can get my ripped CD's to play tracks in the correct order is to just drag & drop folders of the album name (with the tracks within) across to the root directory of my MuVo2. Unless I do this, all the tracks just upload in alphabetical order !

MuVo2 FM 5.0GB Playli

I have a question regarding playlist management on my newly purchased MuVo2 FM mp3 player. I am posting because I have found the manual and the pdf help file to be fairly inadequate in a lot of places.
Can I put all the mp3/wma files into the root directory and then have playlists over them whereby a song may be referenced in more than play list?
I am aware that it's easier to put together the playlists on the pc and then just drag them across to the device, and I've had no problems doing that and putting the songs onto the player. The one thing I am trying to avoid is doubling up on songs that appear in more than play list.
I hope I have made sense here - I'm only new to this stuff so please bear with me.
Thanks
Michael

Thanks for your prompt answer yesterday carni - much appreciated.
I managed to move the files around on my player and edit the playlists - all seems to be working well now.
However, there is a(nother) problem with the organising software: regardless of the setting in the playlist creation options to create a directory for the tracks, a directory is created when you add files to the newly created playlist. This meant a fair bit more mucking around than I expected - about three hours in total.
Luckily I am fairly computer literate and am willing to give things a go, otherwise I'd not have been able to accomplish the rearrangement of the tracks on the player.
Overall though, I am quite impressed with the MuVo2 FM 5.0GB player - sound quality is good, FM reception is adequate, and navigating the menus to set options is fairly straight forward.
If anyone else needs to know how to do this I would be only too happy to outline the process in a posting on this forum.
Happy New Year to everyone!

MuVo2 load time with long playl

I recently purchased a MuVo2 because I liked the form factor and sound quality. The small size of the display wasn't going to bother me because I plan to make liberal use of playlists for driving and what not. I created a playlist of approximately 300 MP3s using Windows Media Player, but when I tried to play it, the MuVo2 would hang. After a few tries I realized that the MuVo2 wasn't freezing, it was just taking a (really, really long) long time to load the playlist. When I pared the playlist down to about 20-30 MP3s, I got the load time down to an acceptable time. However, if I put the same 300 MP3s into a folder and just played the folder, the load time was also acceptable.
My question is: Is the long load time due to the fact that the MuVo2 is a hard dri've based player? If I swapped out the 4GB hard dri've and replaced it with a 4GB compact flash card, would it take the same amount of time to load long playlists? My guess is that it's not because of the hard dri've, because I used to own an iPod and didn't have the same problem with long playlists.
Thanks for any help!

It's most likely WMP.
Try Creative's MediaSource software, and I've also heard good things about using MediaMonkey with the MuVo?.

Nomad MuVo2 File organization H

Hey all, I have a 4 GB MuVo2 and I was wondering how I can organize my files within a folder by track number. When I view a folder in Windows, I can select Details to show name, album, track, etc. I can then sort by track number for an album and it will rearrange my files by track, ,2,3, etc. When I upload that folder to my MuVo2, they are?put in alphabetical order. Does the MuVo2 only read and organize by name? Would the ONLY way to get these files in order by track is to put an 0, 02, 03 etc. in front of each name on each file

you;d have to put the "0,02,03.etc" in front of the track names, I had a movo2 and had the same question, but worked it out quickly... It's not really that time consuming, and worth it if you want to scroll through songs

Muvo2 1.5 GB: Can't upgrade firmw

I just got a Muvo2 .5 GB and was told to upgrade the firmware. I got both the latest American upgrade (-6-) and the European (-2-0e).
After the Muvo removed the present firmware I'm not able to load the new firmware. I get the errormessage: your player is not conntected, please connect your player. But it is connected, I can access it as a dri've. I even bought a new USB cable just in case, but this also doesn't seem to solve the problem. Strange is tha when it is connected, I can only see the screen with the Muvo picture that is connected via USB. I can't access the recovery mode options while it's connected.
Can someone please give some hints?

Normally you should run the reload firmware routine, then connect it to the PC straight afterwards for the firmware update.

Muvo2 stuck in recov

Hello
I am having a problem - I've tried searching the forum but everyone seems to be on Zens now and my poor little Muvo2 seems rather old hat! Either way I haven't found an answer to my current problem. It was fine this morning and then when I tried to transfer an album it started to go a bit strange. First of all although it was showing the album folder on my pc it wasn't on the player when I disconnected it. Then it decided to go into recovery mode and won't come out of it.
However, when I reconnect it to my PC it is still showing that all the folders are there, I just can't get to them. Some of them are coming up as corrupted and unreadable but not all of them...
I've tried clean up, removing and replacing battery, poking the little reset hole underneath the battery - nothing.
My Muvo2 seems to be stuck in Smartscan and I'm getting the message
Smartscan failed
unable to proceed
Press MENU to start recovery
So I do and I get Recovery Mode v.00 followed by the 5 options, which I've tried (except Format All because I really don't want to have to start loading all over again if I can avoid it - there's stuff I only have on my player...)
Can anyone give me any advice on what to do and whether this is a problem I can resolve?
Thanks
Em

Thanks Jason for your reply.
I ended up wiping it and going back to the beginning, which is kind of a pain for having to reload everything but on the other hand (glass half full mode [ON]) it was probably time for some swap-outs and getting other parts of my CD collection on there....
It seems to be alright now anyway.

Creative Muvo2 FM freezing on start

Hi everyone,
If anyone can help me with this I'd greatly appreciate it. My muvo froze the other day on a song, and wouldn't turn off - after removing the battery and replacing it, it gets stuck on the 'Muvo2 FM' screen won't do anything else, and it doesn't get recognized on a PC.
Any ideas? I'm currently in Thailand on holiday, so am unable to check with customer service or warranty info.
Thanks!

Thanks for replying Glenzen. I've tried that a few times, as well as just connecting it to AC without battery, and just USB, but it keeps freezing on the Muvo2 screen. Oh well, biggest pain is all my music is lost now!

Muvo2 Battery drains o

Hello everyone, I need a help. My Muvo2 is acting weird - it looks like the player itself drains out the battery. When I charge it at the night & switch it on next afternoon, battery indicator shows me only one bar! I tried 4 different batteries - it's all the same. Any help will be really appreciated. Thanks in advance...

A 1A charger really will not be enough when using the phone for navigation if you want to keep the charge up. I have the Anker 13000mAh battery which has both a 1A and a 2A charging connector and when using the 1A while on the bike using navigation, tracker and media player the 1020 will slowly drain still. On the 2A port it stays at full charge as long as the Anker is able to provide enough power (which is easily a full day under these conditions).

Muvo2 FM 5GB Charging Prob

hi, my friend just gave me the above player, i had problem charging the player using USB player,?when i connect it to my pc, it only sync between the pc and player for transferring files but it's not charging at all, how do i go about to charge the batt? do i have wait till EMPTY battery before i can charge it's?please kind advise thanks

Double click on My Computer and then right click on the MuVo2.
Click Eject, but leave the player connected, it should then charge.
Leave it attached until it's full (3 bars).
Careful charging via USB as it must have least one bar of power before you can start to do so.

I guess it depends on the problem. If you still have a warrenty then you dont have to pay. But i guess it depends on what is wrong
I recommend emailing supportMessage Edited by Bloodangel05 on 04-7-2005 0:2 PM

Hello everyone.
I recently broke my macbook, and had to replace it with a pc laptop. I have my data saved on a time machine enabled external hard drive.
How can I use that hard drive to put my files (music/word documents) to the pc?
Any information would be greatly appreciated.
Sadly, in your case, the TM backup is practically useless. TM provides a backup primarily for the machine to which it is connected, and then, only through the TM interface engine, never directly.
The files are not stored in a linear manner as would be in a regular backup - they are linked to each other and each "file" only represents a "delta" or incremental backup unit. The TM engine knows how to reconnect all the links to create the proper file.
What you need to do is get another Macbook similar to yours, and see if you can connect to the TM backup with TM. If you can, then you can restore the files and them copy them onto a FAT32 formatted external HD.
If you network the borrowed Mac with the PC, you can transfer the files over the network, but in any case, you have to use the TM engine to do so.
The only files on the TM backup that are most likely "normal" would be the original files created during the first backup.

Problem with Muvo2 FM 5.

I'm having a problem with my Muvo2 FM mp3 player.. First when i tried to change songs, it showed "playback error" After i switched it off and switched it on, it took a long time to load at the "CREATIVE" "welcome note" and i finally got to the recovery mode automatically.. over there whichever option i select, either "connect to pc" or "format" or "run pc scandisk" neither of it worked.. it will state Media Error.. What's the problem with my mp3 player? Please help me..

I have the same problem as you do. The player always goes to the recovery mode, and whichever option I choose, it only shows "Media Error". When I connect the player to my pc, my computer cannot detect it.
Well, I just bought the player yesterday, and I'm going for an exchange.... Hope the new one doesn't have the same problem.Message Edited by wonghei on 0-25-2005 0:08 PM
