Does anyone know how to avoid the ‘buzz’ between tracks in the media player? I don’t hear it on the ipod. Also, how do you not have the music interrupted when receiving an email (probably turn off the audio notification).

i have this on my 8120 and it is the worst player i have ever had. it makes no sense no track forward or backward without having to access the full menu and you cant attach all your songs to a playlist you have to do them individualy and you cant tunr the sound boost off. worst player ever

The player described on the 8300 does not allow for the creation of playlists. All the tunes will go into one large list. Does anyone know of an mp3 player program for the Blackberry that has both a search function and a playlist creator?

press ball and scroll forward or backwards
press ball to mark
scroll ball down and press to play

M4p files are protected so your Media Manager won’t let it upload. It’s annoying. You have to burn a CD and then rip it back in to Itunes. It will covert to a m4a file format, which your Media Manager will accept.

I could not get it the Media Manager on my desktop to accept M4p files. It only accepted Mp3 files. Anyone else run into this and know why?

Thanks.

You can fast forward by placing clicking the ball randomly until the progress bar goes from ‘white’ to ‘blue’. It’s VERY cluncky if you asked me.

I like to transcode TV shows and load them up on my media card. I would LOVE it if someone could hack this player to do the ‘30 second skip’ forward function with a keystroke and ‘5 second skip’ backward key.

IF I WANT TO PLAY MOVIE IN THE BLACKBERRY 8310 WHAT IS THE PROCEDURE FOR FAST FORWARDING.

[...] Zenum’s hocus-pocus has resulted in a very real Opus in the hands of CNET. For some reason, it’s packing a miniSD slot. Why not micro? On top of that, it’s got the 2.5mm headphone jack. Really now, the Curve’s 3.5mm jack should be setting the standard from here on in. Being able to keep your old headphones is a huge pull for consumers remotely interested in music functions. The 2.0 mpx camera has a sliding cover on it, which looks like more of a hassle than anything else. I gotta say, though, that touchscreen AND QWERTY in the same package is pretty smooth, however cramped the keypad supposedly is. Despite all that, CNET seems pretty happy with the package. “Overall we’re quite impressed with this offering from such a small company and our only niggle is the lack of quad-band GSM connectivity and 3G — but this, we’re assured by the people at Zenum, is coming in future models.” [...]

[...] Just in case you were getting used to thinking of 2GB worth of music on the Curve or Pearl, you’re in for a bit of readjustment. Samsung’s got an 8 GB MicroSD card slated for mid-2008 release, by which time, maybe the 4 GB format will have a chance to catch on before it’s quickly ushered out. Samsung’s card will be clocking in at a respectable 16MBps read speed and 6MBps write. Still no word on price, but it’s a ways down the road. [...]

Ben:

The media player on the Pearl recognizes ID3 tags, and even album art.

I’ll guarentee that the new media player does as well.

I’m curious as what bitrates it will playback. I know some motorola java mp3 players on some phones can’t do higher than 192 kbps and can’t do songs longer than 8 minutes.

By: Ben

Does the media player recognize ID3 tags? such as iTunes and if I were to load the mp3 in via the mp3 player would it recognize the artist/title/album/cover art etc…?

Nice screen shots, thanks. So, how is the sound quality compared to the iPod using the iPod headphones?

Is it as clean sounding as your iPod? High frequencies biting or sharp… or clean like the iPod? How’s the bass compare?
