Just a note – I have used several mp3 players with recorders, and have found them very useful. They’re unbeatable for recording lectures (i.e., in University), and I’ve even used some to record simple music (guitar & vocals) that came out not half-bad (I’ve used my old Iriver ifp-series more than my sansa clip for this).

It may be that most people do not care about this feature, but many of my friends prefer mp3 players that record as well – it’s a useful feature, and there’s at least a sizable minority that does appreciate it.

Simple hack for the shuffle problem:
My device also has the problem that it plays very often the same song in shuffle mode. It is song No. 1 in the Music->Title list (and in the file structure). So I made an MP3 with silence and duration 1 second. I call it 000-silence.mp3 (something which is on top after it is sorted). I put it in the same folder as the song which was always played before. Then I sort the filesystem with fatsort. Now, the file is still played very often, but it is just 1-3 seconds then.

first i had the 4gb, and just like morven10, shuffle crap, played same song over and over, took it back to store, got the 8gb version. shuffle is better but every day, starting afresh it plays the same songs as the day before. now after 4 weeks, some songs i have not heard yet while others have played over and over. i put this down to crap software. my answer is to not play shuffle, and every few days mix up the tracks on my pc, and reinstall!!!

Bought one of these a couple months back for £15 to replace my R0 Sammy (lost walking home from work). I expected nothing much but have to say after a little use and better quality earphones it pleasantly shocked me with the sound quality. Its cheap, plasticy but does what its designed for and will last until I get me a Cowon or Sammy again. I like it simple as that.

I’m very pleased with my Archos 1 Vision, but it has three irritating faults.

1) I have named all of my mp3 files so that they appear in the right order alphabetically, and copied the filenames to the “title” tag. However, they appear (and play) in some random order on the Archos.

2) If I select “albums”, some albums just do not appear. I have double-checked that they are there, and that the “album” tags have been set correctly on all of the tracks. This seems to happen if there are two albums with vaguely similar names.

3) Sometimes it will start playing a few seconds into a track instead of at the beginning.

Can anyone help?
