5800 shows wrong track length for MP3s with VBR

I have a Nokia 5800 "XpressMusic" with the current firmware 20.0.012.
Yesterday I converted some CDs using Nokias Music Software (shipping with the mobile).
I converted the CDs to MP3 with VBR 256KB/s.
When i play them on the 5800 a song with i.e. 3:50min length shows about 14:05min length.
When i try to scroll forward i can only do that in the first few mm up to where 3:50 would be. If i go beside that border it jumps to the end and skips the title.
Shouldn't a mobile with the name "XpressMusic" be able to display the real track length of a MP3 with VBR???

Duplicate post.

  • ITunes 6.0.2 shows incorrect track lengths, clips track when playing

    I just upgraded to iTunes 6.0.2. In previous versions, iTunes would often show incorrect track lengths on longer tracks, but would play them all the way through, with the time remaining staying at 0:00 until the track finished playing. This new version simply cuts the track off at the incorrect endtime. For example, I have a track with a length of 17:33, but iTunes has always shown it as 17:28. No big deal, it would always play to the end. Now, the new version cuts it off abruptly at 17:28. There seems to be no way to correct the track length. Is there any way to fix the track lengths to their correct times, or get them to at least play all the way through?? These are custom mixes and not from commercial CDs, so simply re-ripping isn't an option.

    I have recently accused Emusic.com of supplying truncated tracks only to find that Itunes 6.02 and 6.03 (Mac) is clipping the start and end of the tracks. The counter gives the correct length but the playing is not correct. Fade out / in are off. Playing the offending tracks in quicktime or any other player gives all the track music.
    Looking deeper shows that the tracks in question are all VBR .mp3 tracks (Variable Bit Rate).
    Solutions to date are to either play in another player (not ideal).
    Convert the tracks to fixed bit rate .mp3 using the setting nearest to the highest variable bit rate. Amazingly this works even when the conversion is done in Itunes. Your file size should be same or larger to avoid quality loss.
    On playing the tracks I have converted the counter in Itunes gives the same reading but the tacks are not truncated.
    Some VBR tracks do not seem to have the problem but that is usually because the nature of the track makes it less obvious.

  • How do I update/refresh track information for mp3 files already on my the comput

    I recently started using MediaSource after buying a Zen Touch and noticed that one (possibly more, I haven't screened all the?files I've burned) of the CD directories doesn't show the track information in MediaSource. I don't know why, when I go to the file directly on my computer all the information is there. I thought correcting the problem would be a simple matter of identifying the tracks without information and getting Gracenote to tag them, but I can't find any way to do this, and I've spent a lot of time looking.
    In searching this forum I've found other users with similar problems but no solution. To keep this simple, I will ask the question in the most direct manner I can:?How do I get track information for mp3 files already on my computer?Please note that I'm not asking how to get track information for CD's I'm burning, these are files that have been on my computers for years. Can somebody please help? I'm quite frustrated that what I thought would be an easy to apply feature of MediaSource is proving so difficult.

    Go to Settings>Store>Apple ID. Make sure that your current ID is set in there.
    You can also try logging out of FaceTime - Settings>FaceTime>Apple ID. Tap that ID and sign out. Sign in with the correct ID.

  • Wrong track length listed

    Hi everybody,
    So, I'm running iTunes 7.4.2, and several of my longer songs (generally over 10 minutes) have the wrong length listed. For example, I have one that is over 12 minutes long, but is only listed as 9:57.
    I tried converting it to MP3 using the convert to MP3 function, but the new track had the same length as the old one.
    Is there any way for me to fix this for this song and all the other ones in my library?
    Thanks in advance.

    As of this week, with recently updated iTunes (7.4.2), I'm finding some songs (all mp3's) with a changed bit rate, now 64 bits and some longer songs (8 minutes +) with changed, incorrect times. Is there something going on here beyond an Apple bug fix, something I need to educate myself on to protect my files ?
    I'm not sure what's causing these problems, but over the years I've seen plenty of reports of things like this. MP3s created with Audion using the included LAME encoder were notorious for incompatibility with iTunes a few years ago. I think the best thing to do is to keep a "virgin" backup of your music somewhere out of iTunes' or any other player's reach.
    Can this, or any iTunes version actually corrupt previously recorded files ?
    MP3s are somehow susceptible to corruption and damage, much more so than with other formats of music files. Determining whether any version of iTunes actually causes the damage or corruption is quite a difficult task. Actually, without having a safe backup of MP3s which have never been allowed into contact with iTunes, it's pretty much impossible to prove.
    iTunes is my favorite player by a long shot, but the only application I trust with my master archive of FLAC files is foobar2000 (on my PC). I have this whole library backed up on different drives in my Mac in both FLAC and Apple Lossless formats, but the FLAC library will always be the one I rely on and use for transcoding to other formats.
    For what it's worth, I don't really consider iTunes an "MP3" player anymore, and I suspect that Apple doesn't either. Nothing in iTunes in the way of MP3 support has changed or been improved in any way for literally years--unless someone has evidence to suggest otherwise. Starting with iTunes 7.x, I suppose the single exception would be that Apple figured out and implemented a way to analyze the gapless playback information stored in LAME-encoded MP3 files.
    Finally, it's fair to comment that iTunes does alter audio files when the default settings are used. Adding MP3s to your library with Sound Check enabled, for example, actually alters the tracks' metadata without warning. Supposedly, when you turn Sound Check off, iTunes simply ignores the information it has written to the files, but the files remain altered and this can be easily proven by examing the files in other players such as foobar2000. A good rule to follow is to always be extremely careful when setting up iTunes in order to disable every possible function that has the ability to tamper with files before adding any files to the library.

  • VBR problems, wrong track length.

    I have a problem. I listen to a lot of audiobooks for work. I like them to be organized so I rip them on the computer in WAV format. I then use Audacity to combine them into chapters. Here is where the problem with iTunes starts. I can import all of the audio tracks fine, but the track lengths are wrong. For example, when importing one track it says that it is 2:40:18 long. In reality it is only 43:24 long. The only way I have found to fix it is to have iTunes make a copy of it, but I don't want to do this for every track.
    I know that it is an iTunes problem, because in the folder in Vista it says the correct length. It also says the correct length in; VLC Windows Media Player, Audacity, and every media program in Linux that I have used.

  • My long audiobook files are reduced to very short track lengths when synced with my iPhone

    Hi,
    (I had a look for this post from somebody else but didn't see anything, apologies if I'm doubling up...)
    I have a couple of audiobooks with loooong track lengths, like 10-11 hours per track. But when I sync them to my iPhone to listen, the tracks are cut drastically, only being about an hour each, meaning that I lose the other 10 hours or so of the chapter...
    Is there a reason why this happens and does anyone know how to correct this problem?
    Cheers

    Just to add to what ChrisJ4203 said.  You can sync them to your new computer using iTunes by selecting to Include Voice Memos on the Music tab of your iTunes sync settings and syncing.  However, you still need to re-establish syncing with the new computer without iTunes erasing all the iTunes media from your phone (as the warning mentioned).
    If you copy your entire iTunes folder (not just your music) from your old computer to your new one, along with other non-iTunes media you may be syncing with iTunes (such as contacts, calendars and any photos synced to your phone from your old computer) by using migration assistant of following one of these methods: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527, then when you sync again with your new computer it will recognize your phone and sync as it did before.  You will still have to authorize the new computer for any Apple IDs used to purchase from the iTunes and App stores (in iTunes>Store>Authorize this computer). 
    After that you can sync your voice memos to your computer as mentioned earlier.
    If you want to archive your voice memos before you do anything with iTunes, you can use a 3rd party program such as PhoneView or Touch Copy.

  • Iphone 4 showing wrong IP address for home wireless

    2 days ago we reset our home wireless password and updated our devices (ipad, laptop, and two cell phones). Now my iphone 4 will no longer connet to the wireless. It accepts the new password to join the network but it never connects. It is showing wrong IP address. How can I change it to the correct IP ? Tried hard rest, forget network, and renew lease all trying to get it to automatically update the info. Out of ideas. Any suggestions?

    I have the exact same router as you, I have Comcast, and I am having the exact same INFURIATING problem.
    Comcast and Apple have no ideas. Linksys tells me I am having a router problem.
    I even went so far as to buy a new router and modem from Linksys (as they claim they no longer make the router/modem combo because it doesn't work well). I still don't buy this... my PC, my PS3, my DS... all of them connect to the router perfectly.
    I have the new modem and router here and planned to give that a whirl tonight but Comcast was being difficult and saying it could take 72 hours to activate my new modem. Totally unsat. I had them reconnect the WCG200 and I am still trouble shooting to no avail...
    If anyone finds a fix (short of a new router and new modem)... please post!

  • ITunes doesn't show all Photoshop Albums for syncing with Apple TV

    I created a new Album in Adobe Photoshop Elements 6.0. When I attempted to sync my new album with my Apple TV, not all of the Photoshop Albums are listed. If I sync my newly created album to my iPod Touch, the entire list is available by scrolling. (Scrolling is NOT available in the Apple TV Photo Tab).

    I am having the same problem. It has been ongoing for a long time. I have over 136 items in my feed, yet only 101 ever show in iTunes.

  • Why does Airport Admin Utility show wrong IP address for base station?

    After setting up my new MacBook Pro (and apparently updating Airport Extreme firmware in the process) running OS X 10.4.5, whenever I try to access the base station (IP 10.0.1.1) from my PowerBook G# (Firewire) running OS X 20.2.8, Admin shows 254.128.0.0. I cannot access the configuration windows, getting an error message "An error occured while reading the configuration."
    I am also currently unable to pringt from the Powerbook and an iBook (also running OS X 10.2.8).

    I just tried the hard reset, and nothing has changed. I had to rename the base station and network, and change the passwords, but I still see the wrong IP from the PowerBook, and I still can print only from the MacBook Pro, where I also see the correct IP address for the AEBS.

  • Importing large AIF file (1.4gb - 2 hours speech) -full track length absent

    G'Day Folks,
    I have a 1.4 gb audio file (AIF) of a lecture that I'm wishing to import into garageband and break into smaller audio tracks (for linking to a powerpoint slides).
    When I drag the audio file into a male vocal track on garagband, it imports the whole file ok (I can play it back), but visually garageband only shows a track length of about minutes (but continues to play the imported track after the first 2 mins).
    What it means is that I cannot split the single audio file into smaller segments, as there is no complete audio track to highlight in the editing window and 'spilt'.
    Any idea / suggestions?
    Many thanks.

  • Wrong track order in ipod

    My ipod has the wrong track order for at least three different albums of three different artists. Its only one song on each of the albums. All the album info is correct and in itunes the songs are all in the right order. I've restored the ipod twice to no avail. Any ideas

    the only thing I can suggest is make sure your playlists are in the right order when syncing, so maybe have your albums in the right order when syncing? I know my purchased playlist is in whatever order I sorted it last...usually by play count. SO my most played song is at the top of that playlist. Maybe it works like that for albums too, so make sure the songs on the album are sorted by track #

  • Finder search results show MP3s with incomplete or changed filenames in Yosemite

    Under Yosemite, when performing a search for "mp3" in Finder, certain search results will not display their true filename under the "Name" column:
    For example, the "Name" column above should display the entire filename (as shown in the Status Bar), not just what I can only assume is the track title.
    This does not apply to all mp3s, only to some. Probably something to do with ID3 tags, or perhaps with certain hyphen usage in the filename.
    Anyway, I'd just like the "Name" column to show me the filename as it should, and not metadata. I can't find how to change the results to display the correct filenames.
    This causes several problems. First it makes sorting by an album's track number, which is frequently included in the actual filename, in the search results impossible, as now the numbers are not part of the list. Therefore if I want to drag an album into an iTunes Playlist in the correct album order I have to go to the source folder and can't do it straight from the search window. Also I can't see separate versions of the same song, which may have the same track title but different filenames. Also I can't see the filename at a glance, which may include other important information other than the track title. And so on.
    I can't find anyone else who has this problem on Yosemite. Mavericks yes... and sadly no help. Hoping it's fixable.

    I have the same problem with AIFF's too...
    It's a big problem for me as I'm currently doing some sound design.
    I need to see the file name in the finder, not the title/track name.
