i have this but i cant find a program to convert dvd movies to it, i tried any dvd converter pro. but it only converts 16mins of a dvd, can any one help?
Um i have this walkman, its very good and worth the money - though - i do really dislike the red case as it does look pink in the light, can anyone tell me if its possible to remove the red casing and place say the black case on, also where can i buy the black case sepratly if this is possible .. thnx :)
I think sony walkmans shit all over apples players & many others for sound quality but i wish sony would get a grip and start to support gapless playback for there players ,as it ruins mixes in electronic dance music. The X series walkman doesnt have it either !!! come on sony what are you playing at ?

never ever buy any sony walkman products in india bcz sony service center r really bad,they neither provide good servies insted they cheat u by charging u lot of money ???i purchased a walkman and my software of walkman got corrupt and i have purchased it for 5500 rs and sony service center r charing me 5000rs for it repair then wt is the use of buying there product whose repair cost so much ???it totally fuucks plz dont buy any sony product
you have to put i supplied software on your computer and transfer from windows media player by drag and drop and go to bbc iplayer.you must save to desktop via more downloads on portable devices,go to amazon .there is a good tutorial if you type in sony mp4.good luck
download replayer sp and there will be a box on every vid on the internet that says download
click that button then ther will be another box that comes up it will show that the vid is downloading after its done hit convert and ther will be another box that comes up it say what to convert it to click it and pick ZUNE.then it will want you to pick a file to put it in click one.Hit convert and wait for it to get done.Go into the file that you put it in and drag the video to the box that says walkmn
a lot of people have asked what to do when your listening to music, and it suddenly freezes and wont turn off. what you do? one, let the power die. too, hook it up to the computer. three, take off the most recent songs you put on it; that song may have a virus. four, let it charge, then ALL BETTER. if you drop it and you rmp3 player has a decolored spot, don't turn it off. let it sit there and little by little, the color will go back to normal. it worked for me.
i've had mine for almost 2 years and a few weeks ago the screen wouldn't work and then a few weeks after that it just wouldn't play music. Even when i plugg it up to the computer to charge it won't play music.Does anyone know how to fix this? is it just because it's old?
i have i prob i tried to put in videos but it wont work i copy paste and put the file in the videos file but its still wont work!!!!1 can someone help me?
OK this is what happened one day I kept my Walkman in my pocket in school so I can listen to it in my free period. When I turned it on I couldn't see anything I put it under yhe desk and then I saw the songs... I tried to put the brightness on max but it didn't help... any one know how to fix it ? ?? I still can see but only in a dark area...
hey anyone. I've had my Walkman for about a year. and i never used it. i want to put music on it. i dragged music to my library and click the the sync icon while it was plugged in. It said no device detected, press F5. i did several times and nothing happened. how do you i get my computer to recognize my Walkman and allow me to put my music on it. plz reply ty.
Ok it is kinda hard to explain but you know that plug that comes with it the one with the flat thing at the end well you take that plug you hook the fat part to a part of you computer the other part to the bottom of your walkman then you shoould soo this little thing that has the walkman on it or something then you go on your documents go to video or music or whatever and drag on to that little screen thing that should work.....
i got one of these but i can't play any video MP4 files. I had a film which was an avi and converted it to mp4 - it still doesnt work with 'file not supported' as my message. what the fuck is going on? someone give me a solution! im using a mac if that makes any difference.
Yeah, its because they were probably downloaded from Limewire. Tip for you, I think there's a program that automatically corrects any errors in the song information for Windows Media Player. Try looking for that.
you need to download a dvd ripper from the internet like magic dvd ripper (google it). you only need the free trial of the ripper otherwise it costs money. choose output format as mpeg4 with ratios of 320x240(so it fits the screen) then after the DVD is ripped find the file you selected to rip it to and click and drag to your video folder on the walkman
Very nice video on the Sony Mp3 player nice to use. On my website you can use PC texting very easy to use and send text messages online. You can go to my profile to access my website. Very nice video.
mope download WMP 11 from the disc, Download "youtube downloader", Download a vid, save it, convert it using "youtube downloader" to PSP Video MPEG4, once its done save it again, drag and drop the MPEG4 file tou you walkmans video folder n u r set
@worldwideidiot6 connect it to your computer, on your computer click start and then computer and double click on your device then you should see the video files than copy and paste stuff into it
It looks great, but how is the sound quality and is it good for podcasts i.e., can you seek through a file quickly and/or does it have bookmarks (unfortunately, only few mp3 players do)?
