Hi,

I read it that he didn't have an up-to-date system at home, so used CF
cards to transfer to work, then onto the player from the CF card at
work.

Thanks for the info - this is certainly encouraging!

Andrew.

Hi Pele,

Don't forget this player is compatible with the Rockbox software, see
http://www.rockbox.org.  With this software loaded, the player will
speak all the menus, and spell out file and directory names, thus making
it quite accessible.  I have the H340, and it works fine.  The only
difference is that the 320 is 20 GB and the 340 is 40 GB.  But one thing
puzzles me Pele.
You say you copy MP3 files to a compact flash card.  Since the player
doesn't take CF cards as far as I know, what do you achieve by doing
this?
This is a hard disk player, so CF cards ain't going nowhere.  Unless you
mean you copy to a CF card, then use a CF card to transfer to your work
computer, then to the 320?

All the best

hi andrew and Everyone

The iRiver h320 is about the size of a cassette.  It can be connected to
the PC with a USB cable.  It says it is compatible with Windows 98, but
not with my machine.  Better people than me have tried!

I have got round this by copying tracks to a compact flash card and
connecting the iRiver to my Windows XP machine at work.

I use Windows Explorer as the player shows up as a hard drive.

The controls are relatively easy to use, except that some of them
perform a number of functions.  I believe it can be tamed, but a certain
amount of assistance is necessary to get going.  It has a radio and can
record, but I have not used these functions much yet.  The FM radio is
not very good.

I have downloaded a PDF version of the manual from the iRiver site, but
it is not over helpful as when it tells you wich button to press it
displays a graphic which is lost in translation.

I only asked for comments offlist because I thought people might not
want to read such specialist information.

Pele
