However, this blog may not attract those who are using an online MP3 player that usually don’t create any hiccup during its usage. 

 

In this blog, you will also get some useful troubleshooting tips for common issues that you might come across while using Phillips MP3 players including the RAGA, GoGear or Muse ranges. Phillips carries its ominous presence in the field of digital music player manufacturing industry with different ranges of MP3 multimedia players that start from music-only Raga to the full video Muse player. 

As there is no gadget available in the market that is free from problems or technical issues and the Phillips player is no exception to it. A malfunctioning music player can deliver poor sound quality, may fail to sync with your PC or it will not turn on at all. Improper file formats, outdated driver software or firmware, an error within the disc, or lack of internal memory are some of the reasons behind a malfunctioning player.

You can fix these commonly faced problems by following some easy to apply tips on your device. Let us discuss a few of these issues and their appropriate resolution. 

Poor Sound Quality

Mostly, bad sound files are responsible for poor audio quality of the gadget. You cannot derive a good sound quality from bad files. It is impossible to any player in the world to produce high-quality sound by using low-quality sound files. Since the input responsible for fantastic sound quality is missing, so expecting good sound quality is an illogical thing. 

You need to follow the below-given steps to troubleshoot the issue: 

·         First of all, you need to open your “Options” in your software or “Rip” menu and then set “Bitrate” to a higher value and click on “OK” and then insert the CD

·         Now click “Rip” or “Import” button to re-import the CD at an increased fidelity

·         Send the imported files to your MP3 player

Majority of the experts agree that a bitrate lower than 128 kbps will produce a low-quality sound. However, some don’t prefer it below 320 kbps for good sound quality. 

Player Becoming Unresponsive

You become highly irritated when your player stops responding to your control commands or your touch. If your player is not responding to your commands, then there might be many things responsible for this disorder. You need to observe whether it is displaying a black screen, or it is stuck on a particular song, menu item or video. In the case of a black screen, you may require charging your player. 

In the case of a stuck or frozen player that refuses to respond, you need to reset the system. You need to press the “Reset” button located on the left or rear of the player by using a ballpoint pen or paperclip. However, there are certain GoGear players in which you can press the “Reset” button by using your hand. Once you press the button, you should wait for around 30 seconds before the system reboots and gets ready for use. 

Player Doesn’t Sync 

If you are using a Phillips GoGear and not able to connect the device to your PC, then you won’t be able to send files to the device. To troubleshoot the issue, you have to make sure that the drivers and firmware on your system are updated and working in an appropriate manner. To update the software, you have to go to the Phillips website and choose the type of MP3 player that you are using. Now scroll down to find the brand of player and then click the name of the player. Now click “All Software” appearing on the right side of the screen and then download both the "Device/Firmware Manager" and "PC Software."

Once you download the software, you can update the drivers for your player. To update, double-click the downloaded “PC Software” and then follow the prompts. Once the file gets installed, you need to double-click the “Device/Firmware Manager” to unzip. Now you need to connect your MP3 Player using a USB and then double-click the downloaded file to launch the software. Now the files will get updated or installed automatically. 

Above mentioned are the three most common issues faced by you while using the music player. Apart from these, you come across some other issues like corrupt files, hardware failure or other significant software problems.
