I'd like to report some display-related issues, on both the Android APP and the DMP-A6 itself. The 1st issue relates to display of lyrics, and the 2nd relates to the Play Queue in the APP. I attach 8 photos/screenshots to help explain. 1) Below is the start of a .lrc file, showing the first two lines of lyrics for a track. [00:14.16] In the day, we sweat it out on the streets [00:17.51] Of a runaway American dream Image 1 shows what the DMP displays before the first line is spoken. "In the day, we sweat it out on" is shown in bold text, and "the streets" in normal text. Should all be normal text. Image 2 shows what the DMP displays while the first line is spoken. "In the day, we sweat it out on the streets" is all shown in bold. Correct. Image 3 shows the APP before and while the first line is spoken. "In the day, we sweat it out on" is shown in bold text, and "the streets" in normal text. Should all be normal before the first line is spoken, and all bold while the first line is spoken. Image 4 shows the APP while the second line is spoken. Correct. The APP jumps directly from Image 3 to Image 4, so "the streets" is never shown in bold. Incorrect. 2) In the APP play queue, it's very easy to confuse the APP by dragging a track onto the CURRENT TRACK or NEXT TRACK. Image 5 shows everything as expected, with a single CURRENT TRACK and NEXT TRACK. Image 6 shows a second CURRENT TRACK, the result of dropping a track into this vicinity'". Incorrect. Image 7 shows no NEXT TRACK, the result of dropping a track into this vicinity. Incorrect. Image 8 shows random loss of artwork, which can often occur when a new track starts playing. Incorrect. Any questions, please let me know. Thanks.
Well at least you got the lyrics to display. I've not seen lyrics displayed in ages since a firmware update many versions ago. The only thing I can suggest is to edit the lyric file to insert a blank line before the first line of the lyrics. i.e. before [00:14.16] In the day, we sweat it out on the streets; add a line something like [00:13:00] with no text after the timestamp. Maybe this might fool the display into using a regular font rather than bold for the first line?? I will hasten to add my suggestion might not work and I haven't tried it myself because I haven't seen lyrics displayed on either my DMP-A6 or on the app for quite some time. BTW, you don't need to compress your files before uploading them. jpg files are already a compressed format.
I'm guessing that inserting a blank line would help with the lyrics display issue, but it's only a workaround and not practical for a large collection. The only reason I zipped the files was because there were 8 of them and it's easier to upload a single file.
As a matter of interest does your unit have the same issue of bolded font on the first line when displaying lyrics from online streaming services? What version of firmware are you running?
Could I just ask, for those of you who are familiar with how this forum works, are Eversolo themselves in the habit of reading bug reports? Would be nice to get some acknowledgement of these issues. I've got a few others that I'm saving up for a rainy day ...
Try @Zidoo Support-Kim She is possibly your best avenue to alerting the development team of any bugs in the firmware.
Hello Nigel, Thanks for the details and your suggestion. About the issues you met, there's something we require/want to confirm: 1. Please send us the files of lyrics and tracks, we'll test it. 2. Could you please confirm the version of your app? Android or iOS? Also, the lyrics file will help : ) 3. image5-7 The same issue here, you can quit and enter again, or scroll down to refresh, then access the correct queue. Also the correct result will be preserved. I'll report this confusing issue.
