I found that I was unable to play the .M4A files generated by get_iplayer for radio programmes on my AGPtEK player. I received many helpful suggestions from this list. One suggestion was that if I demultiplexed the file generated by ffmpeg and then remultiplexed it with mp4creator I would be able to play programmes up to 30min long.
I subsequently bought a SanDisk Clip Jam and found that had the same problem. SanDisk's own website said playing of .AAC files was limited to clips of 15min, although that was not quite right. I reported it as a bug to SanDisk support. I was told it would be fixed in a later firmware release but I was not given any timescale, and I was told I would have to keep checking the website for the fix.
Today I checked and found that v1.12 firmware had been released. (I had v1.10.) That seems to have solved the problem. I have not tested it exhaustively but I have played a 56min 128kbit/s file and skipped through a 3h 320kbit/s file.
