Crash and restart while playing audio book with Media player

Hi,
I'm currently trying to play an audio book (approx. 4 1/2 hours length) ind m4b-format.
This file plays well with iPod, SE K850i and iTunes on Mac.
The file begins tp play properly on my Curve too.
But when I try to go to some part of the book after around 3h or later (by using the scroll bar of the media application),
I sometimes get a prompt telling me, that I'm using a invalid file format (though Media plays it from 0h on without problems).
In addition, the Blackberry freezes, the LED on top lights red and the Blackberry restarts!! Wow!
I can reproduce this with different audio books, all playing well on the other devices I use.
The m4b files are creaated with Audio Book Builder and contain no DRM rights as they are not downloaded from iTunes Store or audible.
I'm using a Blackberry Curve 8310 v4.2.2.176
Micro Edition Media Version 1.1 
 Allthough I think that my curve should crash while playing a simple audio book, I would even be gladif you could lead me to a third-party software which supports audio-books properly, so at least I can
hear my Audio books while there is no patch for the curve available which solces the problem natively. 
Allthough I think that my curve should crash while playing a simple audio book.
Thanks for any help in advance.

You are talking about a specific audio file format : m4b. It stands for "MPEG4, Part 14", which is not currently supported by the Blackberry Curve. The list of supported file formats, including mp3 and "MPEG4, Part 2", is available here :
Supported media files
I don't know if there is a Blackberry application that can read that m4b format. You can, on your PC, convert the m4b file into a regular mp3 file, then transfert the mp3 file to your blackberry. There are many free tools to do that, I'll give you one : LameDrop. Its a small square, you drag'n'drop your files on it et voilà.

  • My desktop (M73 SFF) keeps power down and restart while playing games

    I bought M73 small form factor with Intel core i5-4570 and 4GB RAM with integrated video in Sep. 2014.
    Recently, it keeps being shut down while playing game (starcraft 2).
    Is this related to hit sink issue? graphic? or both?
    How do I fix this problem? Should I replace hardware?
    Thanks!

    Probably heat related.    You can monitor the temps using Hwmonitor or SpeedFan.    Your BIOS may have a fan setting, that you can adjust for better cooling performance (acoustic performance is the default.)   And check that your BIOS and drivers are up to date, using Lenovo System Update, including the optional ones.  

  • CS4 using a Mac and want to play video using windows media player

    Hi I am having issues with file types to play video back using Windows media player.
    I am producing video using Premiere CS4 on a Mac and I need to know what format to use to have the files play in windows media player as .mp4 is not compatable with wm player.
    Thanks

    I have Windows Media Player installed on my PC workstation and I do remember installing a codec so that MP4 files could play in WMPlayer 11 on Windows Vista 64-bit (should work on 32-bit also)
    look near the bottom section of this link for further information.  The codec is called DirectShow
    http://support.microsoft.com/kb/316992#34
    Otherwise if you're posting videos on a webpage for example in the mp4 format use the Quicktime html wrapper so that people using Mac's can also view your videos that are encoded for PC's.  If you encode in wmv format (Windows Media Video) then provide a link to the "Flip4Mac" application that can use Quicktime on the Mac to play Windows Media Files.  I think you can find it on www.mactopia.com .

  • Clicking on Transition and Title browsers causes '11 iMovie crash and projects/events play audio but no video

    After several years of working fine, my old iMovie started acting funny. Clicking on the Transition or Title browser would cause it to shut down. I just bought/downloaded the "upgrade" to '11 iMovie, 9.0.4, yesterday, and now, not only does it still do the same thing, but the projects or events won't play any video portion, only the audio.
    I'm running 10.6.8 on an iMac

    I seem to be having the same problem. I'm running a mac mini and I have like 5 photos, 1 song, and 2 movie clips (not a lot of stuff) in the movie, and when i go to preview it... I see the pictures, and hear the music... but no video.

    Well, I hadn't rebooted after the 7.1.1 upgrade, but obviously I had to restart iTunes. After I rebooted my iBook iTunes worked... Maybe the 7.1.1 update should be marked with a must reboot?

  • Jerky Vioeo 4 few seconds and freeze it while play audio ok..

    Thank all for ur input. The main problem is when I grab video clips from the desktop to the project window and play back on monitor of CS4, I get jerky video for few seconds and freeze it while playing audio perfectly up until to end of the clip. I have tried the same thing with APPro 1.5, the same thing has happened. When I play the SXS card thru Sony XDCAM EX1 on the Televion, I could not find any jerky video there. I have set the XDCAM EX1 and PProCS4 for PAL/HQ/1080i/25fps. Any other suggestions to try out.. Thx

    I assume that the "desktop" is your C:/  drive and assume that is where you also run your Adobe application from.
    Thats asking for exactly the issue you are experiencing.
    PPRo needs multiple drives and setups to run correctly.  Check the setup and specs required for the application.

  • Iv lost the files to play audio books iv tried to and found them locate files but that dont work

    iv lost the files to play audio books iv tried to and found them locate files but that dont work

    I'm going to take a wild guess and say that you have a SATA controlled hard drive. Apparently, there's some kind of bug with SATA disks and Vista and Quicktime/itunes video...and possibly Nvidia is involved as well.
    The workaround is sticking the video on a flash drive in order to play it (because that avoids the SATA controller and thus bypasses the issue). It's a crappy workaround, IMO...and I'm not spending another cent on iTunes videos until the issue is actually fixed.

    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.

    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
