Hi. What contents do the files have? Is it music, or spoken word? If it is the spoken word then you could try reducing the bit rate and see if that will play because the spoken word doesn't have to be at 128kbs. On the other hand, if it is music then I don't really know the answer to that question. Have you tried converting a file from say, 320kbs to 128kbs and then played it? Walter.

However...once the bit rate was upgraded to say 320, it usually would do the trick! Does anyone know why this seemed to work? If raising the bit rate did nothing, then what did?
