Nope, those would have been easy fixes. I've attatched an example of one of those viewed in Easytag. The results are about the same in Amarok. This is a VBR file with a bit rate of ~224, which should be way shorter than 16:33 mins and which, when played in Amarok, is way shorter. The file is confused internally, as far as I can see, not in the tag. -- 16:30:01 up 10 days, 10:48, running Mandrakelinux release 10.1 (Official) for i586, kernel 2.6.8.1-12mdk Registered Linux user #324360 I stood on the leading edge, The eastern seaboard at my feet.
