Used a rockboxed Clip+ for a couple of years, now i use my Smartphone because i discovered Neutron Player which is the only player in the entire Play Store that equals most if not all of Rockbox's features.

Also 4000mah with 10h SoT so plenty of battery and hardware buttons on my IEMs to manage the music player make it nice.

I use EMMS for Emacs which hitches onto VLC, but thats because I've sorted out all my albums in well named directories so I don't need them to be organized by an external player.

As far as 'traditional' audio players go on linux, I have never been impressed by any of them. Sometimes I use Audacious when I'm not in my usual emacs environment, but it doesnt orgnaize collections either.

Maybe rhythmbox or banshee aren't shit, honestly i dunno anon

The current /g/ approved memep3players seem to be Fiio's x1 through 5.

Rockbox is pretty fuckin' dead nowadays so don't hold out for a doom port or anything.

I'm kinda interested if anyone has experience with AGPTEK, thinking about picking up something basic like the A12 right now. It seems like a better analogue for the clip.
>>

It's funny you mention that because I was looking into Rockbox last night. Basically my old Clip died so I got another one, but it wont read anything off the card for some reason. I thought maybe throwing Rockbox on there might help or fix it, since I'm basically out of options aside from returning/replacing

How is it compared to the original firmware?

Also will the default theme destroy my eyes, because the site apparently took a shit with their themes so I couldn't customize anything when i DL'd and fiddled with it
>>
>>58565623
>How is it compared to the original firmware?
A shitload more features, support for more audio formats and customization of the entire interface, also supports up to 128gb mSD cards if it's formatted as FAT32.

The original firmware is way too basic and lackluster.
>>
>>58565729
Sounds neat. Like i said the most important thing is that it actually reads shit off my card; my new clip recognizes the card but wont read/play anything on it.

Either way additional features are nice, but i'm not too picky as long as it has randomize functionality.

Is it easy to remove it/replace the old firmware? Because if it doesnt work then I'll need to get a refund
>>
>>58565895
>Is it easy to remove it/replace the old firmware?
Yes, at least with the Clip+ you needed to hold the left button while powering it up and the original FW will boot instead of rockbox, then you can reset to factory settings.

impossible to beat for price, and it has support for FLAC, if that's your cup of tea. supports microSD. dirt cheap. had mine without issues for many months, and even if it died it's so cheap to replace that you'd still be saving money.
>>
>>58566040
Mine lasted about 7 with about the same usage

Beat to hell too, kept on trucking. It actually still works, but the display is completely gone and sometimes the functions get stuck, or it randomly pauses

I could probably keep using it until I get this new one figured out, or get a different one..

It'll be my backup forever probably

No idea if its still an issue but my concern comes from knowing blue pixels, specifically, used to burn in a lot faster with OLED.

I mean last time I checked they were rated about 15000 hours which should be fine for a few years a least but at the same time it kinda makes me wanna go for something with an LCD in it instead.

no the headphone jack or micro usb will most certainly die on those before the OLED screen does. Plastic 3.5mm TRS jacks take so much abuse in those things. Main reason i like my iphones - metal jacks and frame. OLED failure is a shitty /g/ meme

What do you need to do when your entire music library can't fit onto your PMP? Smartphones provide the easy solution: Streaming from your computer or NAS. Or hell, just paying Spotify the $10 a month if your tastes veer into the more mainstream.

Did you take your entire CD collection with you in your car when CD players were the main thing?

It's so fucking difficult to make a fucking playlist of the songs/albums you want to hear for a specific time period and change it when you want to hear something differentOH WAIT IT'S NOT AT ALL DIFFICULT.

Dumb, dumb, dumb. This is seriously the Dumbest Generation.

Managing more than one device takes more time than I want to spend. Simple as that. Centralize. Minimize devices. Once you graduate college you'll realize that you won't have the time for all of this shit.

You're also asking that I give up the convenience of easy access to my entire library for now reason. Are you a luddite?

Also, I don't have shit tastes where I only listen to singles, so playlists are worthless.

That's pretty funny. Smartphones give you the option of both local playback AND streaming. You have one option with a PMP.

>>58569672
>2017
>people still using the word hipster to mean "people I don't like"

Hate to break it to you but the people talking about how great PMPs are fit the definition of a hipster far more than anyone who says just to use their phone. Using your phone is a populist viewpoint. Though, I think using your phone to its fullest is not.
>>
>>58569691

I'd rather not waste phone battery, not to mention a lot of phones have shit sound quality, and sometimes I just don't want to be attached to by phone, sometimes I just want to listen to music in peace. I bet you don't understand why people buy and wear nice watches either, sometimes it's not all about utilitarianism
>>
>>58569739
Music barely wastes any battery and you really need some self control if you can't stop looking at your phone. Also, you say "a lot of phones" but there's people out there who build a purchase around the DAC. It's not difficult these days now that it's such a popular option.

As for a nice car and watch comparison you do realize that a PMP is literally the exact opposite of that right? It's utility and not showing off, fashion, or feeling good about the amount of money you make.
