Firmware Version 1.0.5 Release Notes:
Feature Enhancements & Bug Fixes

Added DSD playback capability


    Playback of DSD file utilizes the DSD mode of the player?s DAC.  The data in the DSD file is presented directly to the DAC.

    Support for 2 channel DSD64 and DSD128 files

    Support for DFF file container (containing uncompressed data)

    Support for DSF file container including ID3 tags


Improvements to Audio file support

    Corrected ?Scanning Music Library? issue for MP3 files that have malformed UTF-8 tags

    Added handling for truncated/malformed WAV files

    Added handling for AIFF files with invalid chunks (some HDTracks files had this issue)

    Added support for 32 bit WAV files


Improvements to USB mode and device management

    Fixed issue where the PonoPlayer drives weren't always detected if the player was asleep when plugged into a computer

    The screen rotation locks automatically while Music Transfer Mode is enabled

    Detect corrupted files that cause the ?Scanning Music Library? issue and display a dialog with the filepath of the file to allow users to connect via USB and remove the file.
    Detect if the internal storage is formatted to an unsupported filesystem or has filesystem errors that the player cannot repair.  Display a dialog allowing the user to reformat the internal storage if this occurs.


General Improvements

    Improved support for microSD cards with certain types of invalid partition tables
    Exit Balanced Mode if a cable is removed while the player is powered off
    Prevent overwriting playlist number if microSD card is removed and firmware is updated
