iRiver H320
« on: October 10, 2004, 11:03:48 PM »
I just got an iRiver H320 for my birthday and it apparently can record. In the press releases it says, "The iRiver H300 allows recording, encoding and storing MP3s or uncompressed WAV files from a variety of sources." I can not for the life in me figure out how it records in WAV. I'm pretty new to it, and I'll Google some more, but all I can see is mp3, and that'd be no fun. Does anyone know how to record in WAV using this player?

Do a search in here on the iRiver, there are a couple threads on it.  I have a H140, if the 320 is similar, you can switch between MP3 and WAV in the recording menu.

I don't believe I can switch. I'll investigate farther. I've already done a search and read. Anybody have any experience with these things or am I one of the first to get an H320?

Browsing the iRiver forums, it appears that a new firmware was scheduled for October that would allow .wav support, however, it is October and such a thing doesn't exist. I posted on there, hopefully I'll get some info. Right now it looks like I'm waiting for a firmware upgrade, until then I'll be in mp3.

Cut from the iRiver page:

Upgraded Voice Recording, Direct Encoding and Lineout Output
H300 makes it easy and simple to record voice with internal/external microphones, and other audio sound (such as CD, cassette tape or radio) with the analog cable.

The Direct Encoding function directly connects to a CD player or other audio

 tools and converts the music into the MP3 format. AutoSync automatically

 categorizes and stores music into the MP3 format. Voice Detect supports

 voice recording, and enables the system to be turned on only when voice is

 detected, saving storage space and power consumption.

Compatibility with AGC(Auto Gain Control) makes recording capabilities comparable to a professional recorder; it captures sound from even at a distance and controls recording quality.

H300 is compatible with Lineout, which produces dynamic sound with its analogue cable connection to the speaker.


No mention of digital input...  THough there is not much technical detail on the site, more search is needed...  However, I did notice that 44.1 OGG is supported.  Not sure how OGG works, but make me think the H320 would only be 44.1 WAV capable...

Does look like a nice player though, lots of nice features!
