Sd Card usage So i'm a little confused on how much the SD card slot can expand the memory. According to the product description, you can pretty much just load a crap load of songs or videos onto one SD card pop it in and just play songs from it and interchange cards. What I was hoping I could do would be to make a library of videos using my SD cards so that I could save the core memory just for music and interchange the cards. I use Amazon unbox, and according to a few reviews this would not work. WOuld some one PLEASE clear this up and explain to me exactly what the SD card slot adds and its' limitation.Thanks Sd Card usage So i'm a little confused on how much the SD card slot can expand the memory.

Boris...I found your comments helpful. I got the 8GB Zen about a month ago. I really like it. My biggest qualm is the SD card. I find that the player freezes very often when I play from the SD card...especially when I play video. I've had no such issues when playing off the internal memory. I got a generic SD card brand. I noticed that the product page on the creative web site has a compatible list of memory cards... should i stick to them to minimize the 'freezing' incidents ? I am interested to know what brand you are using. thanks in advance.

But how do you go about putting videos onto your card. Can you just click and drag stuff out of your itunes library and drop them off in the Removable Disk "g" folder? If not please tell me in detail!

There is some limited internal memory (for things like stock photos supplied by the manufacturer); however, I was unable to find any info on how to, or whether it is even possible to, transfer any of one's personal pictures to this internal memory. I just assumed it's not possible after reading the instructions. The viewer accepts SD cards or USB-type memory sticks. You plug them in and view the pictures on the memory devices only while they are plugged in. It does not seem possible to transfer pictures from these memory devices to the internal memory. - John

I am using a 64GB SD card and haven't seen any issues. I don't think there is a limit to the SD card GB but I haven't used beyond 64GB card.

I am using a 64GB SD card ( actually it's a micro-SD with an SD adaptor) and I can say its just the best. Take it on a long trip, go crazy on the pitcures without a care, bring it home and download them to your PC. Even at max resolution of 20MBPS, I am yet to use up anything close to 50% even taking videos.

Yes. If I remember correctly, the paperwork says that up to a 16Gb microSD will work, but I have two of these units and they both have 32Gb cards installed and work with no problems. I tried a 64Gb microSD with no luck in either unit, so apparently 32Gb is as high as you can go. (I have almost 5000 songs on each 32Gb card).

You can leave videos on the SD card. Then insert another empty SD card in slot. Save videos on the new card, and repeat with as many SD cards you want. Be sure you at least label each card in an envelope or some other container, with the videos/dates on it.

Hi!! I am wanting to know when you received your answer to your question about whether you can use these for storing and viewing pictures if it worked for you? I too, wish to use these to transfer all pics to each one and want to make sure I will be able til do that with no problems. So, my main question. Is: once I have saved my pics to this device, will my family be able to copy the pics I put on there to tbeir computers.. I a m hoping that you purchased these, and if the party who answered your question right. I really hate to spend the money if they on my burn music, you know? Thank you in advance. Steph Hi!!

John: I'm using a normal sd card, with 32 GB capacity. Try to buy a fast one. Regards, I hope this help

Although I haven't used it yet, I have an app called AppMgr that will do that. Why haven't I used it? Using the SD card for music, not apps...:-)

Hi, Eric...that would depend on how large a memory card you have :-) I have an 8Gb SD memory card in mine & I have taken over 7 minutes of video with it & never ran out of space. I haven't pushed it beyond that point but have read in reviews that the average time you can video in 1080p with an 8Gb card is 22 minutes. I'm sorry I can't be of more help. :-(

Sorry cannot help on this one. I haven't tried the SD Card Slot for videos. I've used it for music only (32GB) and that works very well. I'm sure your aware videos are locked out while driving.

Hi Tom,This MP3 player also features a microSDHC card slot, so you can expand its memory by up to 32GB with a SanDisk microSD or microSDHC card**Card(s) sold separately.This is from here: http://www.sandisk.com/products/music-video-players/clip-zip/

This thing doesn't add memory, it adds the ability to read sd cards. So while that will, by extension, add memory, it may not be the easiest or cleanest solution for that...not sure if they make flash memory in PC Card slots...

If you can I haven't figured out how to do it. I've only managed to move my apps over and lose a bunch of pictures attempting to move them over. Still worth it, apps take up most of the space so they sit on the SD card by themselves.

No, there is no limit. I think the maximum is 32GB SD card. You can load songs as much as you want.I am using 16GB (not full yet), & has around 600 songs in it. Press & hold the forward button for 3 seconds to play music in RANDOM.

Storage size limited by current production technologies. I have tested running 16gb microSD modules on this device and it seems to work pretty well. However, if you are loading large songs (more than 1 hour), expect some lag when switching between songs.

No, it can't. I assumed it would be able to (as the product description didn't say it couldn't, and the pictures showed all cards in use at once), but when I opened up the instructions, on the last page at the bottom it says, "Note: Micro SD [slot 1] and MMC/SD [slot 3] slots will show as one Removeable Disk in My Computer screen. Users cannot use both slots at the same time."Needless to say, I'll be returning this.
