    GhoS you said "I can't load my media library easily and shuffle the list."

    In what format is your media library? Is it just some files on disk? If so you can just drag and drop the folder straight onto Xion and it will load it into the playlist, which you can then shuffle. If not, how did you create the media library, what format is it in?

    P.S. I can't figure out how to get in contact with people, only by posting a rating in the hope that they'll read it again, anyone have any tips?

    I've tried this player a couple of times due to the high praise it gets and each time I'm disappointed. It has no features (at least nothing that works easy for me). I can't load my media library easily and shuffle the list. Maybe I'm not that bright, but I really couldn't figure this player out very well.
    I don't understand the hype when there are a lot of other choices that do more, are easy to follow and are still free - Winamp for one.

    downloaded it, tried it on a few tunes and then uninstalled it.
    it plays ok but after the crash i'm not carrying a collection of media players anymoew.
    i use media monkey, with my DSP's and GForce for my library and settled on
    AIMP2 on my "tune tester"
    gave it a three for effort

    Based on the "wunnerful accolades", I downloaded this and tried it and for the life of me, I can't see what all the fuss is about.

    LOTS of hype.

    Not much substance.

    It's an OK player, competent enough in its own limited way.

    And that's the problem - it's limited.

    No ASIO support despite claims that it's there. No WASAPI support. A *very* bare-bones set of configuration options.

    NOTHING distinguishes this player from the various others out there.

    You like this player? Fine. It's likeable. is it the second coming? Get a life; XMPlay, Foobar and Winamps (even VUPlayer) have it beat stone cold hands down.

    THREE stars for a competent enough, albeit decidedly lacklustre effort.

    If my G-force visualization plug-in ran on Xiion, I'd give it a five. As it is, it sounds great, and that's at least 80 percent of what a player should do!
