The following changes and improvements were made to firmware 1.22 compared to 1.21:

3. Added option to delete a whole folder.

6. Fixed issue where some songs are shown with incorrect Genre on the X1.

7. Fixed known issue in 1.21 where the player would hang if the Shortcuts key was pressed while adjusting a named EQ preset other than Custom. (Now brings up dialog for reseting the preset as intended)
