.swa files are .mp3 files, minus some tags, so the file formats are the same.

I am playing MP3 files
(actually .swa file that have been renamed .mp3)

Just a side note: It may have nothing to do with why the file doesn't play, OTOH, it might, if 2.6.1 tries to fix a filetype/name extension matching problem.

AFAIK, changing a file's extension name does _not_ change the filetype. All you've done is cause a mismatch between filetype and file extension name. The system does not automatically convert filetypes because you rename them. The system and player should be looking at the file's header data and other metadata to see what type it actually is. Maybe 2.6.1 is causing the player to conk out because of a mismatch. Just a thought.

If you want the files to actually become MP3 files, then I think you should do a _conversion_ to the filetype.

All the best,
Ken N.
