I just use, under Windows, a tag editor to convert the V2 ID3 tags into version 1, readable by the media launcher. I expected a better battery life, thinking about the audio DSP included in HHE architecture, and used only by the Sony player. But now battery life is not just better. Battery life is absolutely incredible. I Played music during 5 hours, at maximum volume, plugged to my HiFi ... and battery dropped from 100% to 96%. Even if during this time i only used the unit for about 10 minutes for PIM, this result seems incredible !

I just select them all, go to advanced, and choose convert ID 3 tags __________________ Sony Clie N760c -> Sony Clie TG-50 -> Treo 600 -> Sony Clie NX80, Fossil wrist PDA-> Sony Clie UX50 -> Sony CLIE VZ90 -> TG50, iPod 5.5 Gen -> Sony CLIE UX50, Sony PEGA-EB40 -> Sony CLIE PEG-TH55/E1, Samsung A900 (Blade) -> HTC Touch -> Palm Pre -> HTC Hero, Apple MacBook -> HTC Evo ->Nexus S 4G, Apple MacBook Pro I like iSpin, it's my favorite launcher!!

It's better for taking a shower. I feel soooooooooo stupid now ! Thanks to you hahaha ! I never saw the option to convert ID3 tags in iTunes !!! Ok, i was using ptunes, because I didn't succeed to use comfortably Media launcher, without knowing how to get my MP3tags recognized ... Now, with right tags and CliePet's album swap ... i'm happy (and music sounds a lot better than on an iPod). Thank you !

I came to the same conclusion... are you using the Bass Boost also? (picture of a speaker with +0 by it)

Although the battery life and the screen on the VZ90 were nothing short of phenomenal. (except the stupid digitizer grid). If I could have afforded to keep it, I would have... __________________ Sony Clie N760c -> Sony Clie TG-50 -> Treo 600 -> Sony Clie NX80, Fossil wrist PDA-> Sony Clie UX50 -> Sony CLIE VZ90 -> TG50, iPod 5.5 Gen -> Sony CLIE UX50, Sony PEGA-EB40 -> Sony CLIE PEG-TH55/E1, Samsung A900 (Blade) -> HTC Touch -> Palm Pre -> HTC Hero, Apple MacBook -> HTC Evo ->Nexus S 4G, Apple MacBook Pro I like iSpin, it's my favorite launcher!!

LupeValenz (^_^)/ Hi Join Date: Jun 2003 Location: NM Posts: 2,937	Eh? What was wrong with the digitizer grid? I thought this was a Sony, not a Palm product . I haven't heard much about that problem on the VZ90?? __________________ Sony NX-Sony NZ-Sony UX-Sony TH55-Treo 650- Treo 755P-iPod Touch->Palm Pre

When you have a bright image, you can see the digitizer grid. __________________ Sony Clie N760c -> Sony Clie TG-50 -> Treo 600 -> Sony Clie NX80, Fossil wrist PDA-> Sony Clie UX50 -> Sony CLIE VZ90 -> TG50, iPod 5.5 Gen -> Sony CLIE UX50, Sony PEGA-EB40 -> Sony CLIE PEG-TH55/E1, Samsung A900 (Blade) -> HTC Touch -> Palm Pre -> HTC Hero, Apple MacBook -> HTC Evo ->Nexus S 4G, Apple MacBook Pro I like iSpin, it's my favorite launcher!!

Maybe I should try to get a VZ from ebay when I have the money to burn __________________ My devices: NX73V -> TH55 (primary) my blog:http://intellidryad.blogspot.com/ Get Firefox, the ultimate browser!
