Songs won't play on 4 Gen iPod
« on: October 15, 2007, 07:55:33 PM »
Hello, I recently transferred my song onto my iPod, but they won't play. When I select them, a bunch of gobely-gloop shows up on the now playing screen (not the tagged information) and no file plays. My files are OGG, transferred with WinAmp.

Are they chained Oggs, by any chance? One indication of that in Winamp is that the playtime for the file is larger than what the "File Info" window says. Another possibility is that the files have an ID3 tag in front of them.

If not, a description more informative than "a bunch of gobely-gloop" would be useful. :)

Well, I deleted the database files on Rockbox and then re-established my database, Now the files play all of the sudden. Thanks anyways!
