8 g View bookmarks? Does this player have bookmarks?

No bookmarks unless you buy books in a proprietary format from on vendor. Plus, fast-forward works fine for MP3s, but is reportedly too slow for books. I love the View for listening to music and watching videos and movies and FM radio and recording messages, but listening to generic books-on-disk is its weak point.

I am dissapointed at the youtube browsing, one of the main reasons I bought it. i can only view my first 9 favorites out of 1000+. I LOVE the player and still give it 5 stars, but not being able to view your favorites is crazy. I suggest everyone write to them with the feedback to fix this in a firmware update, its do-able, they just need to get enough complaints on it.

I finally purchased with cowon d2 and am very happy. I listen to audiobooks on it and it can bookmark, but play the next track after the bookmarked track (extremely important). I had the creative zen for awhile and returned it as it didn't have as many features as the d2. If you have any questions about the d2, please feel free to ask.

Sorry, I have used the player just a couple of times and think it starts where I stopped it. Not tech savvy enough to experiment either .And then remember what I did !

I have very positive experiences from using GOM player in playing many different media formats. It automatically find codecs and everything. Perhaps you should give it a try for the new AVCHD format also.

I noticed in a review that it does have a bookmark feature on audio books if you exit directly to the main menu. It didn't say how to do that, but I assume it would be pressing the little button above the wheel. When you exit to the menu, it will ask you if you wish to bookmark.

not that I know of. You can create playlists, and it has this DJ setting (which basically just picks a random song to play), but no bookmark that I can think of. You can delete songs straight from the MP3, and it has different playing functions, but... no.

The ZOOM feature moves in to X4 and moves out to X1/4. The SD card feature is handy, but the internal memory of the Player cannot handle large files. JPGs and MPGs will be displayed or play, if not too much memory use is involved. Certain types of formatted material on a flash drive can be played, but some cannot. You will need to experiment. Overall, this is a really good Media Player.

Yes...sorta. Organizing content into folders (and just dropping those folders onto the player) is the whole reason I have bought Phillips GoGear players in the past. Most brands won't let you do that. But, this player has a basic software problem of not being able to alphabetize the folders. That may be a Windows 8.1 compatibility issue---I don't know.

A1) Yes. I don't know if there is a limit. A2) Currently the Zune software (3.1) doesn't support audiobooks directly. So you have to use Audible Manager to manage their files and OverDrive Media Console to do theirs. Yes, you can use the bookmark function on your Zune device. For others like audio CD audiobooks or MP3-on-CDs, in order to use the bookmark function, you need to add them as podcasts by changing the genre tag to "podcast". Or, if the files are .mp3 or DRM-free .wma, you can use OverDrive Media Console to transfer them to the "audiobooks" section on your device. (FYI: http://forums.zune.net/436444/ShowPost.aspx) A3) Zune supports .mp3, .wma and .m4a/.m4b. However, it does not support any DRM-protected files except those from the Zune Marketplace (and Audible/OverDrive). For iTunes songs, do as Andrew said. For .wma files, right-click a file in Windows Explorer and select "Properties"&gt;"Summary" tab ("Advanced" view), and you can find if it is protected or not. I believe all .mp3 files are DRM-free. I recommend you download the Zune software at Zune.net and try it before buying the device. A4) I'm not sure what you really want to know. On the device, (under its "music" section,) there are "songs", "genres", "albums", "artists", and "playlists" to view your songs.

Yes, it has a "go list". I have never used it as i mostly use my clip for audiobooks.

I have the Sandisk clip and when I am listening to a book and then pause it, it bookmarks where I left off. I just got it last week. I got the 4GB and I wish I would have gotten a 8GB. I downloaded The Pillars of the Earth, The Way of the World and The Devil Colony and that took my entire 4GB.

No it does not..you can scroll text files/songs/artist or radio name and song on screen if you set it to..Youtube it for a demo.

Thank you for the tip. I just upgraded my firmware and I am very please with the added bookmark feature. The Sansa Clip was a good little player before the upgrade...now it is darn near perfect!

You are wrong about the larger ipods not being ale to play books from sources other than Apple. I get two or three books a month from audible and they work great on my 60g ipod. The bookmarks work and I have no trouble at all. I have 69 books (including Atlas Shrugged at 55 hrs and The Fountainhead) and every album my wife and I own and haven't hit 15 gig yet.

Does the selection look for all file types, or just MP3 files. Can you select "All Files" and see everything on your player?

yes you can bookmark audiobooks. This is done two ways. By default The player will remember where you left off and paused. The second way can be achieved in the menu section by hitting select. It's also the audiobooks has a handy Time elapsed counter that you can record. I have two of these devices one for me and one for my wife. It's a great device also considering that it's not lithium-ion you get a lot of hours out of it.
