Fenix 5x Plus freezing during workout+music

I've tried a Walk with Gps (Gps+Galileo) with music on, but after about 5 minutes the watch just froze and had to restart it. Same thing happend when I was in the gym doing an Strenght training (with Polar H10 connected) and music on.
The strangest thing is, the watch freezes after the same song finishes.
Could it be the music file that does this?
  • Have you managed to resolve this in the last six months ?

    Yes. It was a problem with the music file format.
  • Glad to hear that.

    Perhaps you can also help with this

    Obviously if you load music/podcasts/audiobooks onto the watch you can browse through the sections on the watch screen and select the one you want to play

    If you set the source on the watch to "Control Phone" can you browse what is on an iPhone and select it to play on the phone ? or is it just Play/Pause/Skip etc

    Thanks

    I believe that you can only PLAY/PAUSE/SKIP. Never used it before, so i'm just guessing.
  • MiniEggS, Raul77 educated guess is correct.

    Garmin-Heath Please make it work so you can browse the content on the phone just like you can in a modern car with bluetooth. Thanks
  • Suddely mine started also with a freeze behavior, but I do nothing with music, but it happend during my trainings.

    After reboot I can resume with the training.
