New Firmware 2.002 for the M6

Meizu has released a new firmware (version 2.002) for the M6 MiniPlayer through their Chinese website.

Below is a change log:

• When playing media from "Browser" mode, response time is reduced greatly. (No more lag).
• Fixed bug of when recording in high quality, playing speed is abnormal.
• Changed default player background, title bar, and selector strips.
• Fixed other various bugs.

For download and discussion, please see M6 Firmware V2.002.

Thanks to members allanrl and iversonjack for the heads up.

Update: 2.002.3 has now been released, more details. Thanks Knuppel.

^^ No problems mate.
Wonder if this is the official version... doubt it.

just thought i'd comment that there's still a lag when playing files from browser mode. is it just me?

I have noticed that the lag is a lot less then before. It can't be fully lag-free. Did you know how long it took for browser mode to play a song? After you select a song, it used to make you wait around 3 to 4 seconds before playing. Now it is around 0.5 to 1 second wait. Pretty good.

Doubt it's an offical version, or? I'll stick to the V2.001.1, untill they release the final version or when the OTG-support is included.

I just upgraded to V2.001.1 yesterday from V1.010.1 i think, so i had to "fix" everything again that erases when the player completely clean itselfs.
And I don't feel like doing it again ;P.

Thx anyway Err0r.

well it's on the official website, so if that's not official i don't know what is.

The video player is still with the contrast bug.
Wonder if they know about it ? I realy makes videos look crappy on such a great display.

Does anyone know if they worked on MTP at all?

Yes, well at least with the testers firmware i bought a couple of songs off urge and they worked pretty well.

Yes, basically working, but i freezes after 5-8 songs with me ...

Yep, I've seen that too. Hope they fix it soon..

Another thing I was hoping on was a better albumart-support. Guess that's for the next firmware aswell.

I notice that the startup response is even slower with the latest firmware (v2.002). I need to hold the power button for even longer than I had to with the v1.010 firmware. Anyone else notice this?

the truth is, i don't play files using the browser, so i don't know how long the lag was before. however, i tested it again and found that the lag is about 3-4 seconds on my m6. i'm not sure why mine is so laggy.

actually, you only need to press the power button until after the white flash disappears. once you let go, after a second or two, the "...Loading" screen will appear and the player will startup as normal. someone else already took note of this from the prior fw so i'm just repeating what he/she said.

This firmware is pretty stable for me. The only quirks i have with the 2000 series firmware is the visualisation. I really wish theyd just put it in the "now playing" screen somewhere. It doesn't have to be a 10band eq meter, they could just have a 2-bar VU meter.

But, other than that, beggars cant be choosers. Lets see what Meizu has in stock for us in the future.

um. compared to other players such as ipod and zen and sansa is it more new and buggy? is this a problem. i dont want a half finsiehd player but i do like thr idea that they improve it often..
