Random track skip on Sansa Clip+

<< < (3/3)

saratoga:
If it started happening recently, maybe the flash memory is wearing out?  Corrupted data would explain weird playback sounds.

I made builds for the plus and zip with the test_disk plugin:

Might be worth trying the write and verify test a couple times and see if you get any errors.  Just trying it on my Clip v2, I got no errors.

Edit:  Make sure you have > 500MB of free disk space, I changed the plugins to use that much per pass.

TOTAL:
Thanks for the apps. I will check and write back.

In the meantime, I have noticed another strange thing: when copied to hard disk the same files are messed up in the same way, that is although they still look for windows explorer in identically, playback in windows shows that the latter parts of the file are permanently overwritten by files from a different folder on sansa.

I suspect that apart from flash disk failure another cause could have been too long usb cable that I used then.

My plan is to:

0. use mp3 checker - DONE, found no errors
1. check the device with your app
2. replace all the faulty mp3s

TOTAL:
Was it disk tidy plugin?

Tidied no files, or I didnot know how to use it.

But I have added another copy of the faulty files to the sansa flash - an they consistently play correctly, as the old ones incorrectly.

It seems that I have solved my problem by using the original cable to copy the files to the player.

Random skips on FLAC is related, unfortunately, to an hardware issue of some Clip Zips. My old one, that had this problem, is broken. I had to buy another one and this work flawlessly with FLACS.
