Notes, FAQ and Troubleshooting Tips
Notes
Do not put too many files under each directory or in the root directory to prevent the
system from slowing down. If a large number of files must be put in the player, organize
the files into different directories.
Do not store data in the player to its full memory capacity. Allow at least 0.5 MB for the
system to manage memory to prevent the system from slowing down or improper data
storage status.
When transferring files to the Joybee 110 Digital Audio Player, do not remove the USB
cable when the transfer is in progress.
The Joybee 110 Digital Audio Player only plays the files in default folder MP3 and MicIn
in the memory.
Do not remove the USB cable when updating the firmware of the player. Otherwise, the
player may not be able to startup. Remove the USB cable only when you are informed by
the message on the display.
This player can play wma files with a bitrate higher than 32kbps.
Avoid storing over 256 song files in the root directory.
When formatting the player using the Windows Format command, do not format it using
the FAT32/ NTFS file system.
Notes, FAQ and Troubleshooting Tips21
FAQ and Troubleshooting Tips
Why can’t I play certain songs in WMA format using my Joybee 110 Digital Audio Player?
Some WMA songs currently available from the Internet are copyright protected. This kind
of protection method prevents unauthorized person from playing protected song files.
These songs can only be played using a Window Media Player program that has been authorized. If you are already authorized to play these protected songs and want to make them
playable on your Joybee 110 Digital Audio Player, follow the steps below:
1. Open Windows Media Player and select Open in the File menu.
2. Select the songs you want to transfer to the Joybee 110 Digital Audio Player and click
Open.
3. Connect the Joybee 110 Digital Audio Player to your computer. A new Removable Disk
should appear in the My Computer window.
4. Select Copy in the Windows Media Player File menu, and then select Copy to portable
devices.
5. A file list will appear. Check to select the songs you want to copy to the Joybee 110 Digital
Audio Player and then click the Copy button located at the upper right corner of the
screen.
The music files will be copied and become playable using the Joybee 110 Digital Audio
Player.
How many minutes of MP3 music can be stored in the Joybee 110 Digital Audio Player?
It depends on the memory capacity of the player and the compression ratio used in
encoding the MP3 files. For MP3 files encoded by MPEG1 Layer3 with a bitrate of 128kbps
and sampling frequency of 44kHz (most commonly used), 1MB of memory can store about
1 minute of music. i.e. 128MB/256MB of memory stores about 128/256 minutes of music.
How long is the maximum recording time?
Recording time depends on the encoding method, bitrate, sampling frequency and memory
capacity of the player. If high sound quality is not needed for recording of meeting or
lecture, lower bitrate and sampling frequency such as MPEG1 Layer3, bitrate: 16kbps,
sampling frequency: 16kHz are recommended. To record with high sound quality, use
higher bitrate and sampling frequency such as MPEG1 Layer3, bitrate: 224kbps, sampling
frequency: 48kHz. The following table shows the recording time for different settings of
recording.
Encoding

When should I recharge the battery?
When the battery indicator on the display shows that the battery is empty, or battery appears
to be weak (there is only one bar in the battery icon) or when the sound quality deteriorates,
recharge the battery as soon as possible.
Notes, FAQ and Troubleshooting Tips22
Why do different songs have different sound volumes?
Because the parameter of the volume level when recording each song may not be the same,
the volume level of different songs are different.
The file size is smaller than the free memory available in my player, but I still cannot transfer it to
my player
The Joybee 110 Digital Audio Player allocates memory in cluster of 16KB or 32KB. A file of 1
Byte also occupies one cluster, so a file of a size smaller than the free memory available might
not be transferred to the player.
Why is the memory capacity shown in the player smaller than that in the specifications chart?
The player needs some memory space to store other system data, therefore the usable
memory is smaller than its full capacity.
How can I get the updated firmware and fonts data?
You can go to BenQ website at http://www.BenQ.com to download these data when they are
available.
The Joybee 110 Digital Audio Player does not start up!
Check the following:
Make sure if you have accidentally disconnected the player from the computer when
updating firmware.
Physical damages in the flash memory may result in this problem.
The battery power is too low.
Solutions:
Recharge the battery.
Perform the firmware upgrade procedure again.
Please try to format the flash memory completely. If the problem still exists, please contact
your local service providers.
