Problem with some albums on clip zip
« on: March 18, 2014, 01:53:01 PM »
Hey guys, I just recently got a clip zip and rockboxed it. I am currently in love with it!!!! But I have one problem. I have a couple of albums that won't play. They don't show up in the database, so I go into files and see if I can play them through the explorer and what happens is it shows the album and song information when I hit play but then it instantly scans through the rest of the songs and kicks me back to that albums folder. Does anybody have any ideas? Is it a tag problem? I opened up MP3Tag and noticed that when I scroll all the way to the right 2 of the 3 albums im having problems with have no bitrate, frequency, or length. The other album I am not sure whats up with it. Does anybody have any ideas? Should I maybe take some screenshots? Im just lost at why its not working. I know for a fact they aren't corrupted either since My computer, phone, and zune can play them.

The odd thing is when I go to the actual files on my computer and click on "properties" it shows the length bitrate and frequency. If that helps.

I already tried what you suggested but It did not work. You then decided to change the subject about sansas in jail and something about oversampling.

You checked if the files on the player were corrupt?  What was the result?

That is our development IRC channel.  Lots of things are discussed there, not just your question.

I transferred the files directly to the microsd card using an adapter and my SD card slot on my computer. The result was the exact same but instead of (root) being in the middle of the screen it showed the song information. But it did not play any music at all. On the bottom of the screen it just counted until 14 and then kicked me back to the album folder. Im currently listening to that same exact album on foobar2000 on the sd card and its playing fine.

Ah ok, I did not realize you had tested that and was assuming you'd get back when you had.  If you post a link to one of these files that doesn't play I can take a look at it.

Im sorry, yeah I tested it when I posted on the IRC and then you were talking about the other stuff and I was under the impression you didnt want to help me anymore so I decided to come onto the forums. It was a misunderstanding. Ill get back onto the channel and see if we can't figure it out.

I was able to get my problem fixed thanks to dfkt. I ran mp3val and got "WARNING: "D:\Downloads\02 Endre - I Kill For You (Probspot Remix).mp3" (offset 0x1100): MPEG stream error, resynchronized successfully" so I repaired all of the albums and re synced. Works flawlessly now. Not sure what was up with them but according to him it had something to do with imbedded album art.
