New firmwares are available for the X7/X7MKII/X5III again!
In order to bring continuous updates and improvements to the software of the X-series players, we've replaced the FiiO Music app with the new generic market version and also changed the X-series firmware to be more compatible with it. Some old features of the X-series that don't fit with the new design are hence removed. However, we will keep improving the new app and evaluate the possibility of re-adding these features (or improved features) in the future.
The following changes and improvements have been made to the FW1.0.8 compared to the FW1.0.7 on X7MKII:
1. Added support for external M3U playlists;
2. Added "Return to main menu" option in Now Playing menu (tap the "More functions" icon at the upper right corner to select);

4. Added Max volume and Fixed volume setting (can be set in System settings -> Audio settings);
