This doesn't affect performance or quality but WHY does this occur? (corrupt file?) EnerJen EDIT: I just used Creative Audio Converter and re-encoded the file from 160kbps to 160kbps. It fixed the problem by chopping out the other 40 seconds that doesn't load and shrunk the filesize too from 9958 --> 9386. Does anyone still know the reason for this? jdat was this a vbr file? EnerJen No it is mp3 Geoff he meant is the mp3 in variable bit rate as opposed to constant. if u use winamp, watch the bitrate and it'll jump around if it's variable sometimes i'll have that time problem and it's usually a vbr mp3. to fix it i just open it in goldwave and save it as a constant bitrate CLICK TO RETURN TO TOP OF PAGE
