iRiver H320

Here is my iRiver H340 :)

Any suggestion on a good but not very expensive earbud?

[Xtreme $niper]

Any of the Sony MDR ones are awsome IMO. ranges from 10-30 bucks.

Your hands must be small because H340 look very big. :o

Getting Sony MDR-EX51LP Fontopia Lightweight Closed Earbuds

I guess my hands are small haha :-)

Will compare the iRiver H340 with roommate's 20GB iPod if he come back

[BroChaos Veteran]

i have pics of my iriver next to a 20gb ipod, but mine is in an iskin...so it's not a very fair comparison...

Starting time is very slow now with the iRiver HD filled up :)

Try defragging.

Also, if you keep data files on it, It might be wise to repartition it into 2 partitions, 1 for music, scanned by the player, and 1 for data, so that those files don't bog down startup time.

is defragging recommended on these tiny hdds? my h120 is full...i leave about 300mb free on it. startup takes a good 15-20 seconds, i think.

I recieved mine like 3 days ago (H320)

and i already lost one of the cushiony things on my earbud!! :(

[Xtreme $niper]

Get better earbuds dude, the stock ones arnt really too good.

can i upgrade my h320 to korean firmware? I have the US firmware right now and want to play video. will it screw up US radio, and other features?

[Xtreme $niper]

You could install korean firmware on it, but I dont know about the US radio, etc.

[BroChaos Veteran]

it shouldn't scre up your radio, that should be done seperate.

[Xtreme $niper]

Hmm would it void warrenty though?

[divinguy7]

i've heard a lot of different things about it, not sure if it will void warranty. is the korean H320 different (mechanically) then the US version? i dont want to end up with a 300 dollar paperweight.

Starting up time takes: 3 minute and 25 second

timing from pressing the on button and the lcd turn on to when i was able to play a song. :)

That is like a whole song already hehe

i really want to get this, but it has been discontinued right?

[Xtreme $niper]

Dreams, are u by chance using database mode?

and bingham, no it is not discontinued.

[skybl4ck]

How is the video quality when you watch anything? Is it choppy or really smooth?

[thechitowncubs]

Very smooth, I wasn't expecting good video quality, but I was wrong.

It is only 10fps but its fine on that small screen.

[planetik]

The screen quality is really good, almost like a computer screen, but the 10fps gets a bit annoying, BUT it grows over you ;)

I don't know.

When I got the player i just upload my mp3 using the data port and put all my mp3s on the player.

so by using other mode other than database mode make it faster?

yes you can upgrade, and no it won't screw up your radio, and it is in english.. the only thing is you will loose the "media" port to sync with media player, since the other versions use that port to sync with cameras and not with media player. Also once you upgrade to a non US firmware and flash back, you will get an error duing start up, it only says that the DRM key was deleted, it doesn't make your player start up time any slower or mess up anything else. DRM has something to do with protected media files.

NO! they're only discontinued at BestBuy, why would they be discontinued :rolleyes:

I dunno I run on database mode with about 500 songs and it loads in about 3-4 seconds..

[Dreams_Hopes]

I will try to read the manual :)

I had like 8021 songs on it hehe
