Re: software for checking audio files for problems?

[Joe Paton]

You would use a batch converter to achieve this, once you know which paramaters
you need to change to make these files play on the device, which, at this time
they don't. So you don't really have a choice, well actually you do, you, don't
bother. the choice is yours.

Simon,

Check out the sampling rate, and bit-rate.

Then check the player, and see if the player has support for the current 
file
attributes.  If not, trans-code them to a supported format attributes type.

Good luck.

hello all,
does anyone know, if there is any software for checking for, and preferably 
also fixing problems in audio files?
I have recently experienced a number of problems with some downloaded mp3 
files, which whilst they play just fine on the computer, when put on an SD 
card or USB stick, and played back on something like a PTX1, either won't 
play at all, just make a horrible noise, or end before they should. these 
issues are very annoying when trying to listen to a good audio book, so if 
possible, I would like to be able to find and hopefully fix them before 
putting the files on the media for the PTX1, and only finding out when 
trying to listen to the book.

Simon
