Multimedia player not listing mp3 files

O wise ones,
I installed the latest pc suite. The Nokia Multimedia Player does not show any .mp3 files. Under 'view/options/formats' many formats are listed but not .mp3.
How to get .mp3 in that list?
Thanks in advance!

I have reached a very painstaking solution to my problem. I have gone track by track to Audacity and opened these tracks in Audacity. Thereafter I copy and paste into a fresh Audacity file and export as mp3. I dont know how exactly the resulting mp3 file is different from the original, but the new file is picked up by iTunes.
For a tousand tracks I can see a lifetime of misery doing this.
If I go to "get info" by right clicking the original and remake file in Finder, I can see almost identical properties. But in a crucial section "more info" within that get-info dialog box, i can see a lot more fairly ordinary information in the new file, but for the original file, it is strangely compressed and little is visible. So in terms of properties that have changed, I am still blind.
I wish there were a way to batch process all 100 old files that wont get included in iTunes into the new format, after of course knowing what exactly is the change that has happened.

Flash CS5 will not import mp3 files

With the latest Flash program and the latest Quicktime version, I still can not import mp3 files to my Flash.
No reason is given, it only tells me it can't be done.

that's usually an mp3 setting problem. open your mp3 in audio editing software and resave.

N8 music player not recognising music file details

I've been using mp3tag to embed album art in the ID3 tags & also fix the album artist so I can copy the files across to my N8 in windows. It all worked fine before but now the music player just sees them as album artist & album unknown, depite this info being correct in the tag files. Any ideas? In fact I've deleted some stuff that was ok & put it back on & since going back it's not been recognised properly.
Any help appreciated
Nokia N8 on Belle

I have been using muscibee to embed tag information into mp3 files on the Nokia.
1) The trick is to use the proper version of the ID tag.
You MUST use ID3v2.3.
The album art can be both embedded into the mp3 files, and/or saved as folder.jpg. Embedding worked for some time, then it was changed to the folder.jpg, if I know well. Now I do both.
Musicbee has also a lot of mp3 tagging function, also auto numbering, freedb info.
2) If you change the tag info in the files, you must remove the files from the phone, refresh the music library (so they get deleted), then copy the files back, and refresh the music library. Otherwise, the old tag info will be present in the database.

ITunes 10.2.1 does not decode mp3 files properly

Hello,
I have recently posted the results of my MP3 decoder test, covering iTunes, Winamp, Windows Media Player and Foobar2000:
http://blog.szynalski.com/2011/03/16/itunes-10-2-1-fails-to-decode-mp3-files-pro perly/
The result is that iTunes 10.2.1 (Windows) fails to decode mp3 files properly. Its output does not match the other tested players, nor does it match the Fraunhofer decoder in Cool Edit Pro. I have not tested the Mac version.
The distortion is mostly above 16 kHz.
I am posting this here in the hopes that someone from Apple will take notice.
Best,
Tomasz P. Szynalski

I solved my problem I tried several other programs to play my music and since nothing seemed to work, i started deleting other software from my computer and apparently Uniblue's RegistryBooster was the one that caused the problem. Now able to enjoy music from my computer again

ITunes not importing MP3 files

Hi, I've purchased an album online from an MP3 retailer and downloaded the tracks from the album (I've done this quite a few times from this web site).
iTunes imported them fine using the "Add folder" function, however I've found that the song is skipped on my iPod.
I've tried to play the tracks from iTunes and they just don't play. So I deleted the tracks and tried to reimport them, but the Add from Folder function just doesn't do anything - no error, no music in iTunes. Strangely, I added other MP3 files to the same folder and tried adding from the folder again, and the new tracks imported fine, but the original album tracks did not.
I have double clicked on them from Explorer and Media Player plays them just fine, so the files seem OK. I've tried adding the files individually and tried using Explorer to "Open with iTunes" - again, nothing.
This is really annoying me - has anyone else had this issue? I'm using iTunes 7.6.2.9 on Windows Vista.
Cheers,
Pete

OK, if iTunes can't import the file, you could try working on the ID3 tag with a tag editor or repair tool. But if you experiment, always do it on a copy.
You could try MP3 repair tool:

MP3 Tag Studio also claims repair capabilities http://www.magnusbrading.com/mp3ts/
Remove iD3 tags

Foobar2000 has tag removal and add capabilities

Mp3s play in browser - I have NOT enabled mp3 file types in QT 7.1 prefs?

I do not want Quicktime to play mp3s in my browser. I want to save them to my hard drive and play them from my mp3 player.
I do not have mp3 checked in the Quicktime 7.1 prefererences file types tab.
How can I stop quicktime from playing mp3s in my browser - but retain the ability to play quicktime movies?
Thanks!

Is that the only alternative? I knew I could right click and save as. But I'm looking to left click and have another application play it (so nothing hijacks the current page I'm on). I'm talking about clicking on mp3 files.
For example, on my PC I can left click on any mp3 and it opens in WinAmp and thus doesn't take over my browser window. This allows me to quickly and easily listen to songs on an mp3 blog while reading about the artist/etc. I don't have to right click, save to my desktop, close the browser window, double click, etc.. I can just left click, it plays, and nothing is hijacked.
That is not possible on a Mac?

Muse site will not play mp3 files on iOS devices

I'm testing my new/first site using Muse CC 2014 and finding that audio files (MP3) will not play on iOS 7.x devices.I am using the MP3 Player plug-in from Musethemes.com. They have yet to respond to my support request 3 days ago so I am hoping someone here might have encountered the same issue. What alternatives would you suggest?

Never mind everyone. Musethemes got back to me. The issue is the link for each MP3 file points to assets/filename.mp3 in the desktop version but since the tablet and phone versions have their own sub-directories the link needs to properly point to the parent directory where the assets folder is located i.e. ../assets/filename.mp3. On to the next adventure.

ITunes 10.6.3 not importing mp3 files but will play the mp3 files

Hi
I recently updated my iTunes to v10.6.3 on my mac. However, I cant seem to add new music to my iTunes library. Dropping and dragging doesnt work even though the '+' curser appears and importing music using command + O doesnt work either. There is no indication of the music being analysed or anything.
However, when I click on an mp3 file it opens and plays in iTunes but will not be added to the library. If I click on the mp3 file again from finder, it will play in iTunes from the last point..
Does anyone have any ideas of wrong? Its frustrating me because I need to sync music to my iPhone and I cant
Thanks

Ye playing the file should automatically add it to iTunes but its not since I updated iTunes.
The music plays and I can see the the time bar in the window on the top of iTunes but the file is not located in the iTunes library or anywhere in iTunes so I cant right click it.
At the moment the mp3 file is on my desktop. Normally dropping and dragging it into iTunes adds it into my 'iTunes' folder in the 'Music' folder.. but this is not happening. I've tried manually adding the file into the 'iTunes' folder using the appropriate folder titles etc.. but iTunes will not detect the new mp3's. Wierd!!
I think I might just have to re-install iTunes

It could be you're not adding the files the right way. In more seldom cases:

New computer ff install not listing all file types under tools-options-applications

New windows installation on another with the same version of ff (10.0.2). Clicking local .pls files in this machine gives option to launch VLC media player but on other computer just text appears.
The extension appears in the applications tab after clicking tools and options on this computer, but the list is far shorter on the other machine and does not include this extension. Is this rectified by installing a plugin? If so which one?

The issue isn't that VLC isn't playing the files- it is... but linking to the files saved on my system does not launch VLC from Firefox on the other computer like it does on this one. I've actually been able to add to the applications list. Technically I can run the same apps and associations on both machines except that Firefox isn't handling the ".pls" files at all with the other machine
I've saved a directory structure with .pls files to different streaming radio stations and the directory is linked to from Firefox on both computers... identical directories and files stored. When I bring up one of the folders in this machine and click on the file, I first get the same dialog as you attached- I launch VLC by selecting "Open with" then clicking OK. The radio station plays. I've set it to change stations when I click within the iframe without having to go to VLC and use the open media feature- it does the trick with a single click from Firefox,
The other machine when I click the file the iframe in which the directory was displayed shows text information (urls and other arcane digital nonsense) as though the file were a text file. Both machines have similar installations.... I do not want to overload on the other machine- it's my communications backup but I would like this arrangement to work as it does on this computer.
Again, the biggest hint I see is the absence of the ".pls" file type in the list under the "applications" tab after clicking "Tools"-"Options" in Firefox on the machine in question.
Can something be done either by transplanting missing files from one machine to the next or from about:config to induce the desirable result from the other machine in Firefox?

Hi,
This is my code...
package sampleplayer;

import javafx.scene.media.MediaPlayer;
var song=Media{source:"G:/Shono amra ki shobai.MP3"}
var player=MediaPlayer{media:song}
player.play()and its giving the following error
FX Media Object caught Exception java.net.URISyntaxException: Illegal character in opaque part at index 2: G:/Shono amra ki shobai.MP3
but I have tried creating a video player to play a .flv file.It works fine.
Please help...

Several messages here tell there is an issue with media player and paths with spaces...
Note also that source is an URI, must look like: "file:///G:/Shono amra ki shobai.MP3" (or use {__DIR__}).

Jdb in java 1.3.1 not listing source file...

Hi,
I'm trying to use the remote debugging option Xdebug for my server. If I attach using jdb -attach, I'm not able to list my source file using list command. It says Source file not found. I tried various means, -Denv.class.path, etc. nothing works. the use command is always showing "." I'm able to attach put breakpoints, stop the server code etc. please help.

it finally worked if I start the jdb from the ROOT dir. Then it takes the class path for the sources. But still, changing the "sourcepath" inside jdb is of no help.

Ovi Player only displays .mp3 files on my N97

Hi all,
I'm having problems with Ovi Player. First it caused severe problems with my music library app on the phone, which wasn't able to read any files from the file system. I managed to fix this by formatting the whole mass storage.
Later, after importing music files from PC to N97, Ovi Player doesn't display any.m4a files (which I ripped from original CDs using the very same application!), only .mp3 ones. Any ideas on possible causes and solutions?
