Question about Riot MP3 Player

1 Answer

Rio Riot I have an old Rio Riot BIG MP3 player and it worked pretty well. I recently tried to update it and add some music with iTunes and it recognizes my device but willnot let me drag and drop music to it like it will my IPod. Any ideas? I tried to get assistance from Sonic Blue and this is what I found - Welcome to the Rio Audio Extended Support Center! The Begin button below will guide you through the order process for receiving an Extended Support Priority Code and Phone Number. The Priority Code is a value at $19.95 for receiving technical assistance per case or issue for a single Rio Player. What a rip off!!!

Have a try with this one:

http://www.digitalnetworksna.com/support/rio/downloads/rmm/Rio_Software_Ver260.exe

Although not officially available (or supported by DNNA) for the Riot, it happens to function with the Riot as well as newer players. Potentially later updates to RMM might break support with the older players.

Grace Note not working in Windows Media or Rio Music Manager

you are suffering from the Digital licensing information encryption from the majors, which ITunes will NOT agree to. That's how the music industry is making it's muscle show, with this sort of tawdry nonsense. I don't believe there's a s/w upgrade on this, unfortunately. There is a slight possibility that your software might have an interpreter, yet your Rio being that old, not for certain.


got backup?

Itunes will not recognize my polaroid pmp350-4 music player. Can't save my music I bought on itunes.

For Windows folks, try iTunes Agent which you can get at CNET Download.

If you don't have the latest .NET framework for Windows, you'll get an error, so go to Microsoft.com and get the latest version and install it.

Once you have iTunes agent up and running it will prompt you to configure it. If you've never used it before, just say no. You're indicating you don't have a previous profile you need to transfer. If all goes well, iTunes will launch and a pop-up will tell you iTunes Agent is ready to sync your devices.

To add a new device, make sure it's connected to your computer, then right click on the iTunes Agent icon in the system tray and choose preferences.

Press New. You'll get a warning letting you know that the first time you sync, all the data on the new device will be erased. So, be sure you have everything off the device before you go ahead.

Then fill out the fields, naming your device, and so on. Point the folder to the place on the new device where you want the music to go. You can choose particular playlists to associate with this device. Once you're done, press save.

To sync, right click on iTunes Agent and select synchronise devices.

Your selected songs will now be synced to the device

    "First"

    Download "Itunes Agent" from here:

    http://ita.sourceforge.net/download.html

  • 2work-mp-playercell-phonepsp-portable-1.2-120x120.jpg jQuery(document).ready(function(){ jQuery('#jsArticleStep2 span.image a:first').attr('href','http://i.ehow.com/images/a04/hd/ss/work-mp-playercell-phonepsp-portable-1.2-800X800.jpg'); }); "Setting up iTunes Agent"

    "Second"

    Setting up "iTunes Agent" to recognize your player:

    It's real easy, after you've installed "iTunes Agent" it'll be on your "Desktop"....."Left Click" it.

    It'll now be in your "System Tray"... navigate to your "System Tray" and "Right Click" on the little "iTunes Agent" icon, click "Preferences..." , click the "New" button and set-up your configuration, fill in the fields that need to be set-up in order for your player to be recognized by "iTunes Agent".

    Follow the steps from the "iTunes Agent" pic I provided.

  • 3work-mp-playercell-phonepsp-portable-1.3-120x120.jpg jQuery(document).ready(function(){ jQuery('#jsArticleStep3 span.image a:first').attr('href','http://i.ehow.com/images/a04/hd/ss/work-mp-playercell-phonepsp-portable-1.3-800X800.jpg'); }); "Setting up iTunes Agent"

    "Third"

    Your "Music Folder" field specifies where your music will be saved on your player, you could name this folder to anything you like example: "BigA2infinity's Jamz Folder" or if you like to have your player set up just like an iPod and save your files in separate folders i.e. 90' Music, Music Videos, My Top Rated, Recently Added, Recently Played, Top 25 Most Played.


    Or you could just leave the "Music Folder" field blank and have your music saved to the "ROOT" of your player example: "Removable F: drive" .

    In order for your player to be recognized, it must be recognized by a specific name.... in the "Recognize by folder/file" field type in a specific name, example: "BigA's Mp3 Player 2009" .


    So basically every folder name you've created in "iTunes Agent" set-up, make an extra folder with the same name in the "ROOT" of your player.


    Example #1: My music will be save in "BigA2infinity's Jamz Folder" on my player/mp3.

    Example #2: Just like an iPod, in order for an iPod to be recognized it needs a specific name in the "ROOT" of the iPod.... so create a folder in the "ROOT" of your player to recognize your none iPod/iPod-knock-Off/PSP/Mp3 Player, I created a folder named "BigA's Mp3 Player 2009" in the "ROOT" of my player/Mp3/PSP/iPod Knock-Off so it could be recognized.


    Follow the steps from the "iTunes Agent" pic I provided (same pic from Step 2).

    "Fourth" and last step....


    The very last field in set-up is the "Associate with playlist" you could set this option to recognize any playlist you like, if you would like a playlist created with the name of your player set the option to "Use device name" .

    How do i download/transfer my rio carbo mp3 music database to my ipod itunes music manager??

    The Rio Carbon is completely incompatible with iTunes (which uses AAC format). It only accepts mp3, wma, and some WAV's. The Rio Carbon is still the best mp3 player I ever owned, but since Rio doesn't make them anymore, it will never be compatible with iTunes. You can use it with Rhapsody's Mp3 Only service, or any music service that gives you the files in mp3 format - but you can't sync the songs through the music service's "synchronize function" - you have to download the files to a location on your computer, and then use the Rio music Manager to transfer the songs to your device.

    Rio carbon 5 gig mp3

    The Rio Carbon will not play songs from iTunes unless they are in mp3 format. If you cannot download the songs in this format then I would recommend a program such as mediacoder to convert the tracks. I don't know why iTunes was recommended for the Rio but I would just use drag and drop into the folder called Music on your Rio.

    Hope this helps,
