This link does not work. Neither does going to http://www.mympxplayer.org directly.
here you go
This guide is for you if:
You bought a player larger than 2 GigaBytes capacity from eBay.
You just bought a new player.
You are experiencing Format Errors on newly added music/videos.
You are experiencing frequent Player Restarts (hourglass) when playing certain songs.
Your player duplicates music/video files that you add in.
Your player does not allow you to move/delete files that you have copied in.
If you fit any one of the above (or even all), then this guide is for you.
Why you should format:
Not formatting will only cause you ALOT of trouble in the future.
Not formatting increases the chance of killing your player in future, and you will need to perform Dead Player Recovery
Ensure that what you have bought, is of the actual memory capacity.
If it is a gift for someone, you don't want them to come back to you with the above mentioned problems.
Common Myths regarding this formatting procedure:
You will not lose any firmware/theme related files.
You will not accidentally kill your player whilst doing so.
STEP 1
Back Up All Your Data Before Proceeding! This Guide Will Clear Everything In Your Player's Memory Chip.
Install MP3 Utilities, any version will do. It usually comes on the CD with the player, or you can download version 3.68
Here, or version 4.03 Here, or version 4.05 Here. Any one of these will do. The Disk Tool Utility is the same.
STEP 2
Start up MP3 Utilities Disk Tool.
You will be shown a screen like this:
Ensure that you select LOW Format Type.
Next, go to the Partition and Encrypt tab as shown below.
Now, slide the Partition Slider all the way to the Right.
You will notice the "Setting encrypted disk capacity" increases, it is normal.
*NOTE* Ensure That You Do Not Click The "Set Username And Password", Leave It UNTICKED.
Next, click on Start to begin the format and partition process. You will be presented with a dialog box like below, click on Yes to proceed.
It will take a few moments for the process to complete. You will notice that your player would disconnect from the computer, and then re-connect back again.
You will be presented with the "Complete setting disk partition!" dialog box like below.
STEP 3
Go to My Computer and check that now you will two memory drives for your player.
One of which would be small (about 17MB), and the other would be the remaining memory capacity.
Now, go back to the Partition and Encrypt tab.
Slide the Partition slider to the Left, and click on Start.
You will repeat the process and the "Complete setting disk partition!" dialog box would appear.
Check in My Computer that now you will only have One single memory drive for your player. Right click on it and select Properties, this is your actual real memory capacity.
Now check your player's Memory Info for the correct memory display.
To access this, go to your player's SYS TOOL >> MEMORY INFO.
Your player should display the actual memory size that you have just checked.
Check if the percentage is at 0%. If it is, you can skip Step 4 below, and continue to Step 5.
STEP 4
If your player's Memory Info does not show 0%, you will need to complete the below procedure.
Right click on your player's memory drive, and select Format.
Now a new windows format screen would appear.
Select FAT in the File System dropdown menu.
Click on Start to begin on the format process.
A warning will appear for the format, click on OK to continue.
Wait for a few moments while Windows formats your player.
When completed, check your player's Memory Info again, it should display 0% now.
STEP 5
Once completed, sit back and start copying music/video files to your player and enjoy your stuff![/quote]
I did exactly what u did and now my mp4 players memory capacity is only one freaking gigabyte.it used to be FOUR.thanx a lot.[/quote]I am considering formatting my player because I have been experiencing the 'frequent restarts [hourglass] when trying to play certain songs.'
but i'm worried that if i do, my 4gb player will become a 1gb player like this...
Anyone have any other solutions I may try first, or any comments about this [did you lose memory space, did it work fine, etc]?
