Philip go gear 8g opus permanent white screen

This player cannot play mp4 files only mp3 files. When the files are copied to the MP3 player the computer can play the mp4 files from the MP3 player but when you play these mp4 files straight from the MP3 Go Gear it cannot see or play these files.

MP3 players can only play music files in mp3 file format. You can download mp3 music files from the Internet toyour computer and then copy them to your MP3 player. For your CD collection, you need to convert your CDs tomp3 music files onto your computer or download them from the Internet and thencopy them to your MP3 player.
You can do this using Windows Media player and Rip the CDs - Media Player willcreate a MP3 music file for each music track.

This worked for my Opus player supposed to work for all Opus players.
Tip: if the Device manager asks you to update first, dont, close the dialog and Choose 'Repair' tab. Follow the instructions from there.
You need to connect the player whilst holding the "+" volume key to enter the repair mode

I had this same problem. I had put GoGear Opus software on my SA52xx player. When I uninstalled the Opus software and resinstalled the SA52x, the problem went away.

The HDD6330 works perfectly with Windows Media Player 10, but synching it with Windows Media Player 11 eventually causes problems - there is a warning about this issue on Philips' website. The damage has probably already been done, but if your computer will still recognize the GoGear, double-click MyComputer, double-click the icon of the Philips Go Gear, and look for a file call "wmpinfo" - it is a file that Windows Media Player 11 adds automatically to the player that wreaks havoc on this particular GoGear - delete the file called "wmpinfo". Then rollback your version of Windows Media Player to ver. 10 - it will not erase any of your media files in the process.

Good luck!
