Can you make playlists with this model?

I'm not really sure. It did not work long enough for us to use all the options.

I don't know why not. This is a click-and-drag kind of deal, so I can imagine you could load whatever you like. I have other mp3 players which I am happy with, but this one makes it easy to delete/add selectively, rather than adding a whole playlist at a time. You should have no trouble with your books and 4g for this price is a great deal. Hope this helps.

Thanks for your question. Yes, this will handle playlists. This is an amazing sounding player. World Wide Stereo is 35 years old and a very proud A&K dealer.

While this great little device might, in fact, accommodate an audio playlist, I would be very surprised if it actually did. You should consider that this unit is a clock radio. And while it may appear computer-like in its functions, those capabilities most probably do not extend to the command-layering required for digital signal processing, etc. It's a clock radio.

At the moment the X5 does not have support for any playlists, I asked FiiO a question about playlists and here' their answer "Kindly inform you that, our software engineers are trying to add .m3u playlist into the X5's firmware." I also ran across a thread on head-fi dot org that has FiiO asking the users for input on the requirements, so I suspect they will be coming in the future, but at the moment it can't use or create playlists. **Update 9/14/14*** FiiO has released 2.20 code that has playlist support. I've been using it since beta2.05 and it's worked ok. It's a little rudimentary and you need to edit the m3u files, but it works. Now you can have it's great sound along with playlist support.

There is no play list, it continuously plays. Very basic but it works great for the money.

Where their is a will, there is a way. However, I find that support for iTune or any other playlists to be troublesome at best across all players with the exception of iTunes across apple products. To get the same effect trouble free, I simply create folders by the name of the playlists and copy those songs to those folders and chose folders like playlists. This system will work great with any player that supports files which is pretty much all of them. Assuming that you have high quality files and good headphones, the increased sound quality over apple products or any other player in its price range will make the trouble well worth the effort. The X5 is uniquely good in terms of SQ. Where their is a will, there is a way.

If I recall, it can make playlists on the go. I returned mine. After being a Creative user for many years, I found this to be absolutely horrible.

No, but you can make playlists from the DX90 itself. It is rather inconvenient however..You have to go to each song and add to the playlist. You can have multiple playlists.

yes of course you can. On my computer I have media player. I create all my lists there and down load them to the mp3 I want. Each one is tweaked differently for what I am doing.

That has to be done digitally, you would have to convert your files to mp3 then create the play list in whatever application you use. IE itunes.

No, you can't make playlists on this device. That was the only reason why I didn't get it. I've owned two other COWON Mp3 players and was very happy with them, but I need to make playlists AND I need 160 GB of storage. That leaves only one other choice and I had to reluctantly purchase the iPod Classic with its 160 GB hard drive. Though there were some compromises compared to the COWON (EQ in the iPod isn't as extensive and there's no A-B section repeat switch), I'm happy with the iPod. Good luck on your purchase.

I haven't tried that feature. We are having a difficult time to get it to shuffle in a playlist so I would think if you assigned it all to the playlist it will play it. To be honest, this wasn't a good purchase...freezes up quite a bit when trying maneuver from folder to folder.

If you want to put together a playlist, what I do is a look in the device itself for each song I want to add to the playlist and then I press the bottom part of the control pad and then press the second option option there: "Add to playlist," and then press the center pad and that's it. Not difficult at all! I couldn't find a way to do it in the computer and then transfer it to the mp3. Good luck!

yes but on this player , its 'favourites'' instead of 'playlists'......to add songs to favourites,scroll to the track, album or artist and press and hold volume button and select add to favourite

Not sure but the Web site does tell you which model to get. its fine product but hard to use you my just end up setting a Playlist and letting it play that's what I did

You can, but it still won't play them in any order that I could work out. Not numerical, not in track order. Just some random order.
