The Fiio X5 Gen3 is like a second smartphone, something I don't want in any way. And (sadly) now that Apple only ships iPod Touchs, the Fiios get more and more into touch aswell. I don't think that Apple Users aren't in any way targeted, since the resemblance of the product is almost 1:1 of an iPod, with the only DAP on the market that has a wheel and an interface that works the same. OS is OSX, so I'm already short on choices :/Īnd I hope some other lost souls will find this thread and share it so I / we're not alone Has anyone an idea how I could convert it inside the same app that is responsible for copying the files to the Fiio? Is there some way? I don't have enough nerves / disk space to double my iTunes library to just hold on to a 320kb/s copy of my entire library. I just want to sync my Fiio with iTunes like Dapper does, but with the option to convert it before copying. I don't need my ALAC-Files inside the fiio (someday yes, but that has to wait until 512GB microSDs won't cost as much as a trip to the moon) I mean, is there something apple tries to stop, or is the option not wanted at all? My Fiio has a 256GB microSD inside, and it's full. Why oh why has NO app the option iTunes has with "convert music files to XXXkb/s to transfer to "iPod""? And that option isn't missing in Dapper alone, it's missing in ALL apps I tested out before deciding to buy Dapper -> converting files! And yes, it does for the most part what I want - I had to tinker here and there, but one option is missing. I don't mind if iTunes has an updated playcount for every single music file on my drive. I don't need two-way-syncing, just one way. The other part I tried to hold on to my iPod, was the syncing with iTunes. (still hopeing for a custom firmware at some point in the future )
I don't like the OS but that is ok for what you get. It's *almost* like the iPod handling was.
After purchasing it, I liked the handling. The things that were holding me away - the system and the use of a touch wheel (not a click wheel!). So instead of hunting for parts (again), I changed my mind to go the Fiio-way. After modding it, and after using it constantly, it died on me recently.
I recently bought a Fiio X1 Gen2 after god knows how long I tried to get the last out of my 13 years old iPod.
