Sync to Fiio X1 has suddenly started hanging
Posted: Wed Jul 04, 2018 11:55 am
I have MMW version 4.1.20.1864, the free version (not Gold), running on a laptop under Windows 10. My music player is a Fiio X1 with a 64 GB SD card. It is not an Android device.
Until recently I have had no problems with syncing the device to WWM, the sync started automatically when I connected the Fiio via USB to the laptop when MMW was running, and finished quite speedily.
Today I Added/Rescanned about 40 tracks into WWM, and removed some duplicates. I then connected the Fiio via USB as normal to initiate the sync. The sync began as normal, by asking to delete some content from the Fiio. It then hung on the message Copying 0 of 40.
The first time it happened I waited several minutes then right-clicked on the sync progress bar and selected Terminate. I received a message box indicating there was a problem copying an artwork file, but it was not from any album I have amended recently or which has ever given problems before. Unfortunately I did not keep a record of the message.
I tried again, still the sync hung, but I no longer get the message box when I terminate.
I can right-click on a file in MMW and use 'Send to' to copy it onto the Fiio, I can also inspect the Fiio's contents normally via Windows Explorer.
I have tried closing MMW, restarting Windows, turning the Fiio off and reconnecting it via another USB port, all to no avail.
As I was writing this I had the Fiio connected for about 20 minutes. Suddenly the sync has started, but with very lengthy pauses (several minutes) on certain tracks, whilst others sync at the kind of speed I used to experience. It has now stuck again on the penultimate file to copy.
Does anyone know what might have caused this problem to appear, and how it can be resolved? Thanks.
