      I also have a Shanling DAP (many files in FLAC, Opus, Ogg, AAC, not just MP3s). Just 9 more comments to a dozen.

        Nice. I almost got a Shanling a while ago, but went with the Fiio M5 instead (the tiny one that they stopped making). The one in the photo is a Hidizs AP80.

        Do you like Shanling’s interface? I find it’s kind of hard to get to a specific album on the Hidizs. All it gives you is one long, scrolling list.

          The UI gets finicky at the edges of the screen where I think they want gestures. Trips makes scrolling a bit of a pain since you may accidentally switch views. I’ve gotten used to it. The price to performance/features is nice tho.

          If I could change two things it would be: a) properly release their source modifications to the Linux kernel for GPL compliance, b) support some of the native Linux kernel file systems like ext4, f2fs as they would allow better performance & I wouldn’t need to install exFAT drivers.

            Ah, dang. I found the same thing with the Fiio and Hidizs.

            Apparently some of Hiby’s devices have a search feature. That might be useful – I’m hoping the Hiby R3 comes back in stock at some point.

              Finicky isn’t the right word in hindsight. If you tap the edge it takes you immediately to the current player which is a fast shortcut one would like to have, but given the size of the small screen, it’s very easy to accidentally touch while scrolling, which if you have a large library can be very cumbersome to recover.

              Other issues: certain files don’t seem to index correctly, but can be played via the file explorer instead of the main music part. Some of my Opus files don’t want to play despite the devices saying it has compatibility (tho I don’t know if my encoding was wrong or what).

      Short question about the Q8, if you don’t mind: Is it possible to map the two halves of the space bar to different functions/key presses (using VIA)? I’d like to use one half for space and the other as a return key, if possible. Thanks!

      Mokulua kit from mechwild probably your cheapest option. It’s a solder kit and all through hole, I built one myself and had fun. It’s fr4 sandwich so on the cheaper end, though depends on what you’re used to. Soldering is fun!
