Suggestion firmware MuVo v200 Radio

I have a MuVo v200 GB vith 32 radios FM. Firmware .02.0e. It's a marvellous produced.
Suggestion: To be able to indicate the name of the stations FM memorized.
How: by creating a file fm.ini (simple textual file) containing following informations.
Example: If the user memorized the 5 following stations FM, he writes the file fm.ini according to and memorizes it in the root of key USB of the MuVo.
fm.ini file contains:
--- file beginning ---; no checking enters the frequency and the name of the station.;="Radio Creative the best"2="Radio France"3="Radio jazz"; 3="Radio culture"32="Radio Tour-Eiffel;; it's very simple for the user; Perhaps that it is feasible for the programmer--- end of the file ---
Thank you very much.

The latest firmware was a .0.xx version but it seems to have gone from the website - it will not do anything to improve your WAV recording.
What do you mean by voice and FM recording are BAD. That is down to how the player samples and encodes what it hears - changing the format to mp3 will not enhance your recordings. For example, the music on a CD is effecti'vely the same format as a WAV file and when you rip it to mp3 then the quality gets worse not better, due to the basic design of how encoding works - it removes some parts of the sound to allow it to be compressed into a smaller filesize..
It has never been said that you can't downgrade your firmware but peole do seem to have trouble getting it to work.

  • Muvo V200 turns off when trying to enter the FM Radio opt

    My Muvo V200 (52MB) stopped working. I was not able to turn it on: after pressing the power button the CREATIVE text was displayed and that was all. To solve this problem I've reinstalled the firmware (.2.03e version). The player is ali've now, but the FM Radio stopped working. When I try to use the FM Radio option, the player just turns off.
    How can I solve this problem? Is there any way to install an older firmware vesrion?

    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.

  • 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.

  • I want to downgrade my MUVO v200 to firmware 0.

    Hi,
    I have a Muvo v200, worked perfect in all computers until i upgrade to the last firmware, bad idea. I bought a Woxter with an USB port, and my MUvo v200 MP3 player not regconized, i thought maybe if i update my firmware it could be works. NO works in a voxter x-div.
    I updated tho the last firware in the web, and works perfect in my enterprise,with a lot f computers, but when i arri'ved at home with my motherboard P4C800 Deluxe, the computer freeze, and gave me an error on hardware found.
    I've read almost all the messages in the forum, recovery mode, USB mass storage, uninstall, reinstall drivers, i downgrade my Muvo with the complete list of older firmwares. I update the motherboard bios, the USB controller to USB2, the full speed in the bios.
    And in some computers not works.
    Before i upgraded, it works with all computers, and is that i want now.
    Please i'm wonder if it's posible to extract the firmware of the recovery that is 0.0.0 and put in the firmware of my muvo v200 again. I'm sure that works again with all computers.
    Believe me, when i say that i read almost all the faqs and messages, and i try a lot of possibilites during 3 days.
    I'm waiting an answer thanks a lot in advance.

    Hi rufustfirefly
    Were you trying to install the following firmware?
    Creative MuVo V200 Firmware 1.13.03
    Dated Aug 21, 2015
    File Name : MuVoV200_PCFW_LF_1_13_03.exe
    If this is the correct file, do note there is already a warning in the description that explicitly states the following:
    "...web release note. This firmware removes your player's FM recording feature."
    In any case, let me confirm whether this can be rolled back.
    Regards,

  • MUVO V200 Help Required

    Hi,
    I recently purchased a MUVO V200 with 52 mb memory.
    My first problem was the FM radio would not work, but I have since put this down to it requiring more power from the batteries than standard music. Bit of a pain as my rechargable batteries, even when fully charged won't allow the FM radio to work. Is this normal?
    My main problem; is since reformating the dri've and loading new firmware, the player will only store 00 songs, the packaging advises 256 songs. Can anyone explain if there is anything I can do to enable me to load more songs.
    Any advice would be appreciated.
    Thanks
    James

    I have Uniross 770mAh, Energizer 850mAh and Hahnel 900mAh, all .2V and all work fine.
    You can convert the files you have to a different bit-rate using the Audio Converter function of MediaSource that came with your player. If you use MediaSource to rip your CDs then you can set it up to rip at a lower bit-rate right from the start.
    MediaSource and V200 Media Explorer also have a SmartFit function where the files can be reduced in size as you transfer them to your player, though this slows down the transfer process and you would have to do it again if you reloaded the same files again at a later date.
    If these are files from an online music store then you probably can't convert them directly because of the license issues, but you can burn them to an audio CD then re-rip them at a lower bit-rate. If you use a CD-RW then you don't end up wasting a load of CD-Rs.

  • MUVO V200 FILE SYSTEM ER

    I know i don't have a recent product but maybe someone can help me.. I have mp3 muvo v200 and when I try to turn it on it only appears "file system error" and then it turns off. I can't switch it on anymore.. I inserted the usb port in my pc and noticed that all the songs where in the memory anywhere. I tried to format?the disk but nothing happened...does anyone have any suggest? how can I make it work again?please help me! thank you for your attention!

    You need to get the firmware from Support->Downloads and then run it to reload it onto your player. During the reload click the Format Data Area option and all will be well again. PB

  • Muvo V200 or Muvo TX

    THX for suggestions.
    btw, heard that some muvo v200 have a bug, such as a buzz that it's present during song and esp when led is on.
    Is the TX FM affected by same bug too?
    all other specifications are just the same? or some rilevant difference?
    thx U

    The backlight buzz affects all of the flash memory players AFAIK but is not very noticeable.
    The volume scale depends on which firmware version you use but the latest versions for all of the players use 0-25.

  • Muvo V200 battery deplet

    There's a bug in the Muvo V200. If you switch if off when playing .mp3 files, all is OK. But ehn you are listening to FM and switch it off, it seems to switch off correctly (stops radio and blanks the display), but 4 or 20 hours after that (without using the player), the battery is depleted and you can't start it up if you don't change the battery (or recharge it). It happens with alcaline and Ni-MH batteries. It has happened to me 3 times, and now I'm sure that it happens only when I switch off the player in radio mode.
    I use latest firmware (.0.03). Could a firmware update solve this bug?
    Thank you for your support.

    Hello, i have simular problems with my Muvo V200. After some weeks the battery is empty even when i don't use it. Measuring the current when switched off i noticed that there is still a current of mA!! This means that a fully charged battery will be empty after about 700 hours (30 days). I went back to the shop and got another one but it has the same problem.

  • Muvo V200 extreamly low vol

    Hi, I have a Muvo V200 and have to have to volume on max all the time when playing mp3 (that's right on 40!). They are not of low quality (92 kbs) so that souldn't be it. I use the .0.03 firmware and have tried to d/l new firmware (from uk and asia) and format the dri've several times now, as I have read that some firmware have a limit to the volume settings. Now I need help, any suggestions?

    I got my N200 yesterday and plugged in some old walkman headphones (didn't want to rip the bag on the new ones in case i didn't like the player). I couldn't hear anything. I cranked up the volume and could hear it as it got to about 25. I put in the supplied creative earbuds and noticed it was way better. However, i listen to rock music and i like it loud. I need the volume at least 35 for what i am used to. Sometimes i would argue full volume is not loud enough. I am in UK and haven't looked into whether i have the ;e; version.
    To me, having the volume range as -40 is a complete waste of time -25 is pointless. It would take less scroller clicks if we had the traditional -0 (with larger increments) or even - for rock music (anyone remember Spinal Tap!)

  • Muvo V200 512MB randomly shuts d

    Hi, I have a Muvo V200 52MB.
    I usually have to try *many* times before it accepts to turn on. And when it does, it shuts down a few seconds later, randomly. It has an even greater chance of shutting down if I ever dare touching a button.
    This is not a battery issue. Tried new batteries, no better luck.
    I installed the drivers on my PC, I reflashed the firmware, tried last version, previous version, reformatted the dri've a few times, no better luck.
    Any idea ?
    Thanks

    Well, i have the same problem as it has been mentioned here.i have a Muvo Tx USB 2.0 52 MB without radio.2 days ago when i was listening my mp3 player in the bathtube =), it shut down itself.i did not paid any attention at first but when tried to jump on the next song it again shut down itself.Now my player opens when i press any button once instead of pressing the /0 button a few seconds.And it shuts down when i press any button once a time as it behaves when opening.i cannot reach the menu or any other function. My player only plays the last song from eactly where it'shas been on the last opening. Cannot change it , or jump on to other songs. i had got another problem with it 3 months ago and downloaded NoMad Muvo Tx Firmware v..22.03.(When asking info about firmware, it shows its version as .0.5.675, NoMad Muvo Tx Firmware Download Application)This was a problem which my player did not work and when i had connected it to any PC with a winXP sp2 (both on russian and english) windows only launched the true "ini" files and recognized my player but could not display the player on "my computer". When i had tried to reach my player, windows displayed a message, "Critical I/O error, Couldnt retrieve device info.." The firmware update which i have mentioned above have helped me immediately as well i have no such problems again till the day before yesterday. Now, please what must i do with this buzzling problem Can anybody hear me

  • Muvo v200 capabilit

    As a new owner of a Muvo v200, I'm pretty impressed with everything except the voice recording capabilities, something that does not seem to be getting a lot of attention in these message boards.
    Two very important questions:
    - The microphone sensiivity seems quite poor, is there any way of enhancing this? The microphone barely picks up something being said a meter away from the player!
    2- Is anyone aware of any mp3 encoding capabilities for the voice recording?
    Firmware version: .0.03e (I don't know if any updates offer recording amplification)
    Thanks

    About your second question, converting voice recordings to .mp3 format:
    I use Audacity, (freeware), to convert some radio recordings from the TX FM's format to .mp3 format, in order to save space when I need it. It works perfectly. After reading your question, I tried it with a voice recording and it worked just as well.

  • A Problem With Muvo V200 !!

    Hi everybody, I've bought a Muvo V200 GB, and it works well , less one thing:
    When the blue light is activated I feel a very "high-pitched" sound, and it's very unpleasant.
    Can somebody tell me if there is a firmware that fix that problem ?
    I've tried to format the usb flash but I still have this problem. And I've also seen some posts in other forums that complain about that.

    No, the problem is with the V200 hardware itself, not the headphones. But using a higher impedance phone results in this high frequency noise being greatly attenuated. Being a hardware issue, there is no possible firmware fix for this. The only option is to go to a higher impedance phone (the Koss KSC-75 sounds great and is available for $5 from amazon.com) or li've with the problem. You can of course set the player to have the backlight always off - this will also eliminate the problem except at startup but will make adjustments more difficult in the dark.

  • Muvo V200 Starts up for one second and then shuts do

    Hi,
    I bought my Muvo V200 two weeks ago and was delighted with the quality. Yesterday I went to use it and it starts up to reveal the Creative logo and then shuts down straight away. Now the computer wont recognise it either (although a graphic does appear on the muvo screen saying that it is connected to the computer). Ive tried updating the firmware but the installer gets errors. What do I do?

    Other people have had the same trouble so I don't think it's because you're in an Internet cafe, but it would be better if you had access to a PC that you could install the drivers onto. Without them you can't get into Recovery Mode.
    Perhaps someone in the Internet cafe would logon as an Admin for you so that you could load the drivers and carry out the firmware reload?
    Have you not got access to another PC?

  • MuVo V200 C

    My MuVo V200 just broke and now I see that there the one part is only fixed on _three very little_ points to the other part (I'm talking about the frontside and backside of the player/stick part). Do you have an explanation for this?!
    I'm really disappointed!
    Yours
    nightwolf

    Anyway has this question ever been answered... ? I doubt anyone from creative is assigned to watch this column... ? right Creative ?
    I am having a similar experience in nature... my daughter realised that her v200 had a 'Crocodile Mouth" at one side, upon curious which I am glad relected from a "Teen', she realised that the mouth can easily be stretched quite wide, afraid that it may conveniently allows water entry, she had called Tech Support, replied is to bring the device to them for review.
    I believe she "WAS' glad when they said so, but all is changed now as she had came to understand that nothing bought can be returned easily... they first conveniently claim that she might had dropped (as she honestly admitted she did dropped it once) and blamed the splitting mouth to the droppage... I had later phoned in to clarify that the incident occurred in my carpetted office location...
    Then they suggested that they are willing to let her purchase a brand new set after taking back her ex v200 @ $45.00.. I later called them to explain my mathematical understanding that to take my device and topped up $45.00 means to say they are taking my device back, recondition it and sell it brand new while still making another $45.00 from me (The Sucker).. They then say that it is for documentation fees instead.. I then suggest looking at their warrantee obligation to us which was published publicly.. they argue that there are small prints that they are unable to show to public with regards to qualification to an exchange for faulty equipment, I requested but Creative had conveniently declined...
    Anyway, I do not wish to create an issue over a PEANUT matter.. I would like to suggest that Creative at least publish clauses accordingly in order to educate users on the gray area of your warrantees... Service center was busy when my daughter visited in the afternoon... your staff should be more professional as my matter took 4 hours to conclude...
    Very interestingly, Creative had took my device in for "FORENSIC" investigation, this is to prove that the device had came to this state under abnormal usage... this of cos will not be immediate as expected...
    I will await patiently as I think the Technical Support had lost total cool in handling the matter when she starts leaving behind her name "Huitin" and Serial Number "05xxxx" and telling me to file official complaint if I am not happy with the handling methods.. maybe good professional staffs are really difiicult to come by...

  • My MuVo V200 doom

    so here is the thing:
    i bought my muvo v200 maybe few years ago and it has been working perfectly since it started to have problems connecting with my pc. it couldnt kinda connect with the pc. when i put it into my usb port the sound of "new device connected" played and right after it the sound of the device is unplugged and again connect/disconnect sound and it keeps doing that as long as the stick is put into the usb port.
    so when it was doing that first time the problem disappeared eventually. but now the problem appeared again and it wouldnt disappear. so i read about the recovery device and tried to do the things mentioned in that post, even more problems appeared. before that event i was able to listen music with the player but couldnt connect it with my pc. now, when i tried to flash the new firmware on it there was an error which said something about timeout during the update and then the update was cancelled.
    well there was that text blinking that do not disconnect the device during update, and then the error came so it kinda disconnected it during the update. now i cannot even put it on anymore, so i cannot listen to music anymore with my muvo .
    i've tried to connect it with my second computer which just have been formatted and windwos has been reinstalled on it. same problem there with connecting and updating.
    even my computer's bios displays that 4 usb devices are connected, and when i put muvo to the usb port it shows 5 devices connected, and after a few seconds it shows 4 and again 5 and so on...
    is there anything i could do or is my player completely doomed?

    If the firmware download was interrupted unfortunately the only way to fix the player is directly reprogramming the ROM, which is beyond what a user can do. You'll most likely have to pay for Creative to repair the player.
