m4a still problematic on 5G ipod video (30GB)

<< < (2/3) > >>

EricRoss:
I figured that there was a good reason for it to be written this way since it appeared to be by design. I just didn't know what that reason was. It's really not a big deal now that I know why they wouldn't play and have a solution to fix the files.

walterk:
If you have the solution, can you share it? I'm ready to give up on rockbock over this issue. this seems to be a recent issue - it worked before. is there a version i can revert to that worked?

sorry - the replies mean nothing to me. is this a problem that can be fixed? is there a older version that works?

EricRoss:
Sure it can be fixed but the problem lies within the m4a files and not Rockbox. I used the utility mp4creator to fix the m4a files on my linux workstation. You can try the following line at a command prompt to fix your music files.
  mp4creator -optimize yoursong.m4a
Then copy the song to your Rockbox player and it should play without a problem.
