Zen V Plus pausing the audiob

So you know how in iTunes under song info you can tell the iPod to remember playback position in an audiobook you put on your iPod. Like not from iTunes or Audible. So is there a way to have the Zen V Plus remember the playback position of the audiobook I uploaded to it's I don't want to have to find my place every time!

Hold down the Menu button and choose Set Bookmark and select a slot to put it in. When returning to play the book again, select Bookmarks on the menu and select the saved Bookmark.

Creative zen v plus and the belkin char

We discovered something that maybe is so obvious to everyone else but maybe not... we bought the belkin charger that works with our zen v plus. HOWEVER please note the usb cables that come with it and then with the zen v plus are NOT interchangeable. We at first assumed the only difference was the belkin cord was longer but the shorter cable that came with our zen v plus does NOT work with the wall charger. It made our zen lights blink on and off and go wierd and not charge at all but thankfully did not damage our player WHEW!

If the purchases you are talking about are DRM-protected files, which is mostly what the iTunes Store sells, they are not compatible with players other than iPod.
All you can do with them is use iTunes to burn them to an *audio CD.* Think how handy it would be to have them on an *audio CD.*
Going forward, do not spend your hard earned money on songs with proprietary DRM protection. There are other online stores, such as amazon.com, that sell the same songs in non-DRM format, which will be compatible with iPod, Zen, or virtually any other player.

Will Zencast Organiser support the Zen Nano Plus in the futu

I would like to know whether a future release of Zencast Organiser will support the Zen Nano Plus and similar players in Zencast Transfer. Or is this only possible for MTP players?Also items from a particular channel need to be played back on players?(normal play mode) by date (oldest first) and not alphanumerically by file name, or at least for this option to be introduced. I like to hear my podcasts in date order. Surely this makes sense and wouldn't be too difficult to introduce into Zencast transfer?

I have the same problem with my Zen Nano Plus gb player, only it shows up under "Other Devices"

Are ALL Zen V Plus Screens the Sa

I have a 2GB Zen V+ that has a cracked screen and out of warranty. My classmate says he has a GB and a 4GB plus that have good screens but don't work. Classmate wants to sell the dead units.

If that does not work, it would be best to get in touch with support for further assistance. Check the "Support" folder on your installation CD for Customer Support contact details.

Zen V Plus keeps connecting and then disconnecting to the computer. HEL

So when I plug in my Zen V Plus into the computer using the USB cable, it pops up in windows XP as usual, but then 2 seconds later it disconects. I move it to the side and it re-connects, then 2 seconds later it disconects again. Can anyone tell me what's going on with my Zen??Thank you !!

I cannot guarantee that this is the answer to your question (I'm not an electrical engineer), but the same thing happened when I tried once to charge my Zen V Plus at work. But after reading this forum for a while, I came to the conclusion that the Zen waits for a specific signal from the USB port that says it's okay to charge it. If it doesn't get the signal, it goes to "sleep" for a while, then wakes up to check again. If still no "okay" signal is received, it cycles back and forth between sleeping and checking. That's why the screen lights up, then goes off for a while, then lights up again.
This is a GOOD thing I guess because it means I don't have to do the "disconnect USB dri've" thing since the Zen knows when it's receiving power.
At home I don't experience this behavior.

When is the Zen V & Zen V Plus availabe in Austral

Hi,
I was wandering if anyone has any release info on the Zen V & Zen V plus for the Australia region? Knowing Creative Australia, by the time it get's here it will be 'uped by Crapple!

Creative announced US pricing of $30, $70, and $230 for the gig, 2 gig, and 4 gig model. Those higher numbers you see are in Singapore dollars. Often if a price is in Singapore dollars there is an S before the price. The exchange rate is roughly .6 Singapore Dollars equals one US dollar.

Zen Nano Plus and N200- the sa

Yesterday I ordered a N200... or a Nano Plus, actually i don't know since the title said Zen Nano Plus, but the pictures and text said N200. Of course I asked support which I was going to get when I ordered and in their reply they said they are the same but with different name... so I don't really know what i'll get tomorrow, but then I guess it won't matter if they are the same with different name... But are they really the same?

Hello,
Just so you don't make a mistake, the 200 and the Zen Nano Plus were different for me. Both I bought were GB but the software was different on the N-200. I was told NOT to load the N-200 on the Zen Nano Plus. I also bought Notmad software and they said that the ZenNanoPlus would be supported soon.
I mistakenly thought I had to upgrade the firmware to get Audible compatibility. I did not. It was Audible ready out of the box. It was .00.02 from the factory. I got 2 different Creative support people telling me 2 different things...including how to upgrade the firmware with N200. One support said DO NOT do it.
Finally I got someone who said it was audible ready as it is. I tried it and it worked perfectly. So...just check. I am not sure who was right. All I know is I blew one up once trying to upgrade and I am real cautious now. At this time, I would not trade the Zen Nano Plus for anything......except perhaps for a copy of the new firmware for the Zen Touch ! Had to get that in.

Is the 8gb Zen V Plus ever going to be released in Europe/Americ

Hi, people.
I really want to buy the new Zen V Plus, but the only downside is that 4 GB players that are available worldwide are way too small in terms of capacity.
The 8 GB version would be more suitable, but they only sell it in Singapore, which doesn't really make sense to me (but, hey, that's just me).
So, I was wondering, if anyone here knew anything about the 8 GB European/American release? Is it ever going to be released? If yes, then when?
Thankies.
A.

No probs, we all have our gripes. I don't think Apple was in any way dishonest about the intel version. Heck they even 'lifted their kimono' for 1.1 at PMA and we all got to hear how much improved 1.1 should be. Lets be glad the company is listening and quickly getting good solutions to the first release issues. Many companies either do not listen or take 3 times as long to fix.
As for the intel transition, i can't get steamed-up about it at all. I will be getting a MacBookPro soon so i'm listening to the forums and reviews. The engineering effort to do what they have done in the transition and with Rosetta has been very very smooth. And they are 6 months ahead of original plans ! Time will tell how FCP et al work out.
Once Aperture 1.1 is released and you've played with it, please post your comments as i'm keen to sense how it runs on intel.

Creative Zen V Plus Backli

Sup all!?I really hope it'ss not defecti've but for the past week it seems to be losing its display power (most likely called the Backlight). It's almost to the point to where I can't even see the display. The Backlight seems to be burning out (If possible). I reset it 4 times and it'ss still real dim.
?I checked the contrast and it'ss at 00%. I even tried moving it up and down but as soon as I take it down from 00% I can't see it at all. It says in the online V troubleshooting to go to system/Backlight and then adjust it. Well My Zen V plus has the system folder and then a folder called player settings and that?s where I find the contrast but no where does it have a backlight setting.
I?m disappointed since I just got it for Christmas and I only use it at bedtime. The battery is still holding a good charge (So I think anyhow). I?ve charged it full a couple of time of the PC to try to get the backlight problem fixed but no go. The play/pause and the back button still seem to be lighting up just as strong as when I got it. No scratches or marks of any type on the LCD screen, like I said though it'ss been treated good. I?ve never taken it out of the house and the only time I use it is at bed time.
Thanks for any help.

yo tambien tengo el mismo problema, y me acaba de ocurrir hoy de buenas a primeras, cuando lo encendi para escuchar musica no iva el back light.

Creative Zen V Plus - Seeking your help with "Audio format is not supported" error

Hi,
I have a problem with my Creative Zen V Plus and am looking for someone to do a quick test to help me. I listen to a lot of MP3 podcasts, so I often rewind, fast forward or set bookmarks inside tracks. When I do those operations in some tracks, I get the error ?Audio format is not supported? when I ?land on certain places in a track (and I am able to reproduce the problem, which happens always at the same place in a particular track).
Here is what I mean by ?land?. For instance, there is a particular track (see the mp3 link below) that whenever I rewind to exactly 35 min 37 seconds, I get the error ?Audio format is not supported? and playback is stopped. If I fast forward to exactly 35 min 37 seconds, I also get the error. If I set a bookmark to exactly 35 min 37 seconds and I then go to that bookmark, I also get the error. But I don?t get the error if I play the track normally without any rewinding or fast forwarding: the track is played and passes the 35 min 37 seconds mark without any error.
Creative Labs customer support wants me to return my player for repair, but I am not sure if the problem is with my player or if the problem would also be present on other Zen V Plus, thus my asking for your help.
I would appreciate if someone of you could try one of my problematic tracks on their player. Here is what you could do to help me:
1- Download and transfer to your Zen V Plus player the following audio file (it'ss a technology podcast and don?t worry, it'ss virus-free, it comes from CNET):
http://podcast-files.cnet.com/podcas...oud_090808.mp3
2- Go to the 35 min and 37 seconds mark, press PAUSE and set a bookmark there.
3- Go into the Bookmarks menu and go to the bookmark you just set.
4- Do you see the error ?Audio format is not supported?, or the audio plays just fine? If the audio plays just fine, could you tell me what are the first words you hear
when going to that bookmark, just so that I am sure we are indeed doing the same test on each of our side?
5- What firmware version is your player at ?
Thank you very much for any help you could bring me.

How exactly do you do this? I checked this out tonight - when I logged onto my PC using my son's Limited User account (XP Home, BTW) I could connect his N200 and see it in Device Manager and Windows Explorer but both Creative pieces of software (CMS and N200 Media Explorer) did not see that it was there!
I tried setting the Run As... properties for the CTMS.exe file to run as one of the Admin user accounts but kept getting an error about being unable to find a specific file (which is in the Media Explorer folder!). When I went back to using the current user the error stopped. Perhaps I need to set the Run As.. options on that file as well?
As we don't use DRM'd music this isn't going to be a problem but it would be good to find out the cause of this once and for all.
I'm going to see if WMP0 has problems as well or if it's just the Creative ap

Zen V plus 8 GB capacity -- How much free sp

My new 8GB Zen V Plus shows the total capacity as 7660 MB. Is that to be interpreted as 7660,000,000 bytes or 7660 * 024 * 024 = 8000,000,000 bytes which is the marketed "8 GB".
I am concerned because it filled up completely with just 6.95 GB (approx 7,460,000,000 bytes) from my computer.
I assumed the marketing capacity 8GB meant 8 * 0^9 bytes, which is really 7.5 GB approx. But 6.9 GB seems to be somewhat unacceptable. Will reformatting free up any space Message Edited by pannayar on -28-20072:53 AM

every computer memory (flash disks, hard drives) has some hidden space in it. if you buy 80GB hard drive, you will never get full space of it - you will have like 70-75GB. there are various informations hidden there (let's say, for example, that you can recover files that were deleted like 2 months ago - the hidden space is where the information about them is hidden). read about it on the internet if you're interested.
you can recover this space (but i'm quite sure that below method works on ZEN), but you will surely lose your guarantee:
http://www.theinquirer.net/en/inquir...ives-recovered
you have also asked about files that actually take more space on ZEN than on computer. you are wrong. on computer, you also have two sizes. open Properties window of any file and you will see magic things.
(i have opened random .jpeg file)
Size: 8.60 KB
Size on disk: 2.0 KB
every program (operating system, image browser, itunes or whatever) will show 8.60 KB as a file size, but the actual size is 2.0 KB and that's what you should look onto. this is about the file system, clusters and so on. read this if you are interested:

Zen V Plus and USB Connect

Hello everyone. First off... I love the look, feel, and design of the Zen V plus. I'm hoping to eventually get to compliment the actual functionality of it. It has been a long day of hurry up and wait since I sped off to Circuit City early this afternoon for the Zen V plus. I'm just DYING to test it out, but it seems there is a major stumbling block. Let me give you a step by step run down of what has gone on since I can't seem to find a solution in the other posts I've read:
I put the installation disc and successfully installed the software on it.
After installation, I connected the zen v plus to the USB port and it wasn't long before I saw the battery symbol, complete with lightning bolt to show that it was charging. I also noticed that it was "docked", and I saw the USB symbol on the screen of the mp3 player. The button lights were glowing on and off. No problems yet...
I checked to see if you could sync songs while it charged - and it didn't recognize the player.
Around the 4 hour later mark, it DID recognize the player, and allowed me to rip and sync my Maroon 5 CD. I decided to leave and let it charge fully before making any other attempts.
I come home, and the mp3 player has been charging for approximately 6.5 hours. The lights are no longer flashing, and it has appeared to shut off, which I assumed meant it was done charging.
I unplug - attempt to turn on - and nothing. It's dead. Now...it's not being recognized at all.
I'm not good with electronics really, and never pretended to be, but something tells me the USB connection is weird. My brother owns a PSP - and sometimes it doesn't want to read *his* device either. I'm wondering if perhaps it did recognize the device long enough to give me confidence that it was charging, and then lost the usb connection at some point. (It's highly doubtful that my pc went into any sort of sleep/power save mode because there is almost always someone on the computer here.)
For what it's worth, I am using WMP 0, Windows XP (service pack 2), and have tried ALL usb ports (front and back) to get some juice into this thing. The computer just won't recognize it now. I plug it in and hit the power button, and it won't show me so much as a sign of life.
Any suggestions

I had this exact same problem. you should see a little plug on the battery when its connected to the computer, you are seeing a lightning bolt because your V Plus has an old Firmware version on it. Head to the Support->Downloads section and download the latest (..03 I think). This fixed most of the problems I was having.

Deception with VIDEOS in Zen V Plus (Deceiv

En espa?ol:
Creative pretende que el ZEN V Plus sea el competidor directo del IPod Nano de Apple, y para mi humilde opini?n casi lo ha conseguido, supera en todo al Nano, pero falla en una cosa, LOS VIDEOS, la compresi?n y conversi?n es muy mala, el programa facilitado dobla el peso de los archivos, y solo soporta DIB de Microsoft. Este detalle le resta muchos puntos, y lo deja por debajo de su mayor competidor el NANO o cualquier otro MP4 mas barato de cualquier otra marca.
Consejo, mejoren este aspecto en alguna actualizaci?n futura, hagan que sea capaz de reproducir formatos MP4, Xvid, Wav, u otro archivo AVI mas com?n. Tambi?n podr?a ser bueno alg?n formato de M?vil (Mobile). O por lo menos una actualizaci?n del ?Creative vides Converter? que permita seleccionar la calidad, el tama?o, peso,? de los archivos a transformar.
Un usuario desilusionado y algo descontento por este detalle de GRAN IMPORTANCIA EN UN MP4, ya que para escuchar solamente m?sica me hubiera comprado un MP3, que espera que solucionen este problema lo antes posible.
Posdata: Digan en las caracter?sticas del producto que el formato que reproduce es el DIB, y no el AVI, o por lo menos especif?quelo, porque si lo hubiera sabido no me lo hubiera comprado. Me siento algo enga?ado y estafado.
Saludos.
In English:
Creative tries that ZEN V Plus is the direct competitor of the IPod Nano de Apple, and for my humble opinion almost has obtained it, surpasses in everything to the Nano, but it fails in a thing, THE VIDEOS, the compression and conversion is very bad, the facilitated program doubles the weight of the archi'ves, and single it supports DIB de Microsoft. This detail reduces many points to him, and it leaves below its greater competitor the NANO or any other cheap MP4 it but of of any other mark.
Advice, improves this aspect in some future update, causes that he is able to reproduce formats MP4, Xvid, Wav, or another file AVI commonest. Also some format of Moving body could be good (Mobile). Or at least an update of the ?Creative Converter grapevines? that allow to select the quality, the size, weight,? of the archi'ves to transform.
A disappointed user and something displeased by this detail of GREAT IMPORTANCE IN a MP4, since to only listen to music a MP3 had bought me, that hope that they solve this problem as rapidly as possible.
Subscript: Say in the characteristics of the product that the format that reproduces is DIB, and not the AVI, or at least it specifies it, because if had known to it to not me it had bought it. I feel something decei'ved and swindled.
My English is not very good, for that reason there am traducio with Google. Excuse to the failures and misspelling.
Greetings

Bueno, pues he estado probando varios formatos... Y al final el reproductor ha hecho lo que le ha salido de los webos. Te cuento
Prob? con un video de 200mb, algunos formatos consegu?an reducirlo hasta 90mb y se pod?a ver bien en el pc, con otros pesaba m?s. Pero siempre, al ir a meterlo en el reproductor, el convertidor hac?a lo que le sal?a de los cojones, con algunos formatos me pasaba de 200 a 300mb de peso, y algunas veces incluso de 90mb a 500!! 300mb m?s que el archivo original y 5 veces m?s que el archivo en otro formato! Sin embargo, con algunos archivos s? que consegu?a que me pesasen 0mb mas o menos pasando primero a formato Zen Vision.
Qu? he hecho: de momento he ido a la tienda y me han devuelto el dinero. Estoy esperando a que traigan los Zen V Plus de 4gb (200e) porque en esos caben mas v?deos, porque si te vas a un mp4 de 300e no bajan.
