I thought the runtimes were similar between the FMR and Recorder.
Certainly I have no problem with the runtime of my FM unit. How long does
a full charge last, and how long do you expect it to last? What kind of
mp3s do you play (bitrate, VBR or CBR)?

You need to get a recent daily build. I presume you are using version 2.0,
which didn't have radio support. However it was added into the daily
builds several months ago.

Sorry can't help with your Windows problems as I use Linux!
