Rio Manager... report your problems !

[thibs 0]

Ok,

 

What is annoying me (among other things!!) is to be unable to transfer files from my Rio to my PC. And for the rest, the guys who did write this software must be aliens 'cause I can hardly get into the logic of this tool !!!

It's a shame that a such wonderful piece of hardware such as the Rio 500 gets limited by the sofware that comes with it..

 

But the Rio is so cool...

Hi Drak0,

 

Well I don't have This problem but a friend of mine Louissan , who is around here sometime, has the same problem when importing songs in RioManager... it crashes. I bet it's the same problem as yours..

 

Maybe you shoul compare your configs.

thibs,

hrmm... so u don't have a problem w/ it crashing at all?? did you first install rioport 2.1? or did u just get 2.0 and install that? I tried to get 2.1 to work first before I was sent 2.0.

 

my config is:

abit bp6

dual c550

tnt2-U

mx300

realtek NIC

AMD NIC

tekram SCSI card (390 u/w)

hauppauge winTV (which is a ***** to get working w/ the other cards... my mb is full and it doesn't like to share)

 

well, i hope this helps me find the problem!

there is another freeware program that works with RIOs. I would try it but DMM has yet to send me an RMA number to return my RIO.

ThC 129,

O well... i can get the rioport to *kinda* work... so i guess that's good enuf

If you give me ur email addy... I'll email to you...

Thanks, I got it. And I think I solved the crashing problem. It would crash on me everytime I try to add songs to the database, but only when I try it when I have "Devices" selected. When I select "Playlist" then Add Songs or Search for them it doesn't crash on me.

OK, so mine is not crashing and I installed 2.1.5 previously...

 

Does anyone know how to use the "save to PC" option to upload MP3 in my PC ??

[Drak0 0]

Sh-it!!! I just found out that this POS software can't handle mp3s encoded at 192 stereo!!!! I can't believe it.... I just ripped metallica (black album) at 192 stereo and i can't upload it That is my favorite work-out album!!!

 

That sucks because the major release groups are starting to release at 192 stereo...

Can anyone send me a copy of Audio Manager 2.0? I've been struggling with this for a couple of weeks now. So near, yet so far.

 

I'll post it on an FTP site and announce the location, if someone sends it to me.

 

Thanks in advance,

Hi Braden King,

 

Do you have USB working properly under W2K ? is your Rio recognised OK in the device Manager ?

 

Make sure you have the MDMUSer.dll in the /WINNT/SYSTEM32 Folder.

Thanks for replying! I got it running after some registry hacking. I cleared out all the entries referring to the Rio and reinstalled from scratch and now it works great!! Thanks everyone! Now lets all lean on Diamond to make a 2000 version of the RAM so it doesn't crash every 2 seconds!!
