Thanks for the reply, but I wasn't using playlists and I think I managed to figure things out last night. Bizarre problem that I would love to know the reasons behind.
As mentioned, every one of these songs will play in Winamp, but not Media Player and several other popular players. It appears that each and every one of these songs was encoded using some 'odd' mp3 codec or somehow the mp3 got corrupted. Both scenarios are mind-boggling since often times half the tracks from a CD ripped with the same ripper were good and the other half playable only by Winamp. In any event, if I convert the files from MP3 to MP3 format, they all work fine with no troubles; or in essence simply recompile/reformat the MP3. The interesting thing is that it took me 10 or 12 programs to find one that could even open, let alone convert the files. dbPowerAmp and other popular programs gave me a 'Could Not Open File' error until I found one (an audio editor - Wave MP3 Editor by Code-It software) that actually would open it and allow me to resave it, thereby recompiling, or reformatting the file. I am happy now as the SB will play the tracks, but still confused as to what happened to these MP3s.... -- pedaler ------------------------------------------------------------------------ pedaler's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2398 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=18347 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
