Problems playing Mp3's

I have a big list of music that used to play in iTunes, but now they don't play anymore. I tried to remove them from the list and reload them and now it wont even put them on the list, also no errors come up. Also tried reinstalling iTunes with no luck. These songs do play when loaded into another player. Has anyone experienced this and know how to fix it?

It's possible that the headers on the problem tracks may have become corrupted (this can happen if you used any sort of tag editor on the tracks or played or altered them with other software). If you search the web for "mp3 repair" you'll find a number of repair tools. Here are a couple I've seen mentioned:
MP3 Validator
VBRfix.
I haven't tried any of the versions of either, so I can't attest to how well (or indeed if) they work. They might be worth a try on a few test tracks, though, to see if it gets them playing.
Hope this helps.

Problems playing mp3s after installing iTunes 7.1

I installed iTunes 7.1 today. After that, I have problems playing mp3 songs on my iPod (80 GB). The AAC-files play well. The mp3 songs can also be played on iPod via iTunes when its connected to my computer, but when I disconnect from the computer, the mp3 songs starts, and play for about 2 second, and then jumps to the end of the song and stop.
Very thankful for any help.

that's typically caused by a problem with your QuickTime. (itunes uses QuickTime for audio and video playback.)
the following document may be of some assistance:

Still having problems playing MP3s on Mac OS 10.5

Hi everyone,
I was never able to solve this issue, and moved on to other things, but I'm stumbling over it again. I believe that I have everything set up properly; I put the jmf and mp3 plugin jars in my /Library/Java/Extensions folder, but I am getting this message when I try running java com.sun.media.codec.audio.mp3.JavaDecoder:
java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException
Registered succesfully
So does that mean it's properly registered, or is that InvocationTargetException something tats causing a problem. The JMF works fine for everything but mp3s; when I try playing an MP3 file, I get this error:
Unable to handle format: mpeglayer3, 44100.0 Hz, 16-bit, Stereo, LittleEndian, Signed, 16000.0 frame rate, FrameSize=32768 bits
Failed to realize: com.sun.media.PlaybackEngine@39b3a2
Error: Unable to realize com.sun.media.PlaybackEngine@39b3a2
All of the files I've tested worked fine with the JMStudio application that came with the JMF, but when I compiled JMStudio on my system, I got the same results that I describe above.
I've installed, uninstalled, and reinstalled the JMF and the mp3 plugin a couple times now, and then have run the jmfinit binary, and then the jmfregistry binary, and then added and committed the com.sun.media.codec.audio.mp3.JavaDecoder to the Plugins->Codec menu. Again, with the results that I have described above.
Can anyone help?

I have had some success adding the [JMF codec|http://java.sun.com/javase/technologies/desktop/media/jmf/mp3/download.html] to the run-time classpath of the application (or applet).
I did not 'install' any version of the JMF to this Ubuntu system, but separately downloaded the (MP3 codec) Jar and just added it to the classpath (at run-time).
Note there are a number of MP3s that the JMF codec fails to get an input stream from. I recommend anybody attempting this, try it first with an MP3 that has been seen to work using the JMF codec. As such you might..
a) Visit this applet(1), which tries to load/play an MP3. And if that works OK on your Mac., then go to..
b) Visit the [sound section of my media page|http://pscode.org/media/#sound] and download the 'Dead End' MP3 for your own local testing.
(1) The applet Jars are digitally signed. You can safely refuse the digitally signed code and the applet should still work. The applet is still experimental - if you have any problems with it, I would appreciate hearing them. Part a) is effectively an 'acid test' on whether my attempts to play MP3s in applets for Mac users (and other visitors) is successful. If it fails, it might indicate a difference in the way Macs implement the SPI.

IPhone SDK (Beta 5) - AudioQueue Problem playing MP3

Dear community,
i have a problem using the iPhone SDK (Beta 5). I want to playback a simple MP3-file. So i checked a lot of examples, read documentation and found a least the "AudioQueueTest" example. This is an simple example which is able to play MP3, WAV, ... from the command line. I ported the example to a simple application on the iPhone. Now the problem:
If i playback a WAV file in the iPhone simulator, everything works fine. If i want to playback an MP3 file, it doesn't work and i don't know why. I stepped through the debugger and found out that the application freezes at the command "AudioQueueNewOutput".
Do you have the same problem? What i am doing wrong? Is it no possible to create a background thread playing back a local MP3 file?
Thank you!

Did you get PCM recording on actual iPhone hardware? With Beta5, my PCM recording works fine in the simulator, but on the hardware, all the buffers I receive contain only 4 bytes of audio data!
Here's my source code - if anyone can spot anything wrong, I'd be enormously grateful!

Safari 4.0.5. problems playing mp3 files.

Hi,
I'm having trouble playing mp3 files on my iWeb created website. When I use Safari (4.0.5) to browse, Safari does not display the player part of the mp3., and on my welcome page, it does not play the music that's set to autoplay.
When I use Firefox to browse the same website, all mp3 files work fine, including the mp3 set to autoplay on the welcome page !
I also tested browsing with Safari 4.0.4 running on OSX 10.5.8, (on another computer), and it works fine !
I'm guessing this means something is buggy with Safari 4.0.5. running on OSX 10.6.3. or could it be something else ?
Anyone notice this type of issues with Safari 4.0.5. ?
Some feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Thanks for confirming that you are experiencing a similar issue when using Safari 4.0.5 and try to play your mp3 files. As I mentioned earlier, Firefox displays, and plays the files perfectly !
This must be some kind of bug in 4.0.5. that Apple needs to fix.
I already sent Apple a bug report.
By the way, I used another computer running OSX 10.5.8 and Safari 4.0.4 to test my site, and found no issue, Safari 4.0.4 works fine, it played the autoplay mp3 file, and displayed the mp3 player without any issues. Which seems to indicate that this is a Safari 4.0.5. issue.

Problems playing mp3 in Chrome and Firefox

Hi
I have added a small MP3 file to a page in DW which plays perfectly in I.E., Safari and Opera. But in Google Chrome the audio player appears at the top of the screen and I see a black rectangle exactly where it should appear on the page (which is not at the top of the page).
In Firefox I get a the Install Missing Plugin message after which it tells me 'no suitable plugins were found'. As I said, everthing works fine in all other browsers.
I am using DW CS5,5 for Windows, Windows 7, Chrome and Firefox 10. I have heard somewhere that Firefox does not support MP3 due to licensing issues but I don't how true this is. Any help and advice will be much appredciated.
Thanks
George.

I'm also experiencing this problem.
My page is:

Problem plays mp3 files

Hi,
Im designing a Java sound application with ICOP VDX-6354, and operative system X-Linux.
The application receives data from RS-232 port, and plays an mp3 file.
The serial ports are working properly.
This Java sound application works fine in other operative systems (Windows XP, Puppy Linux), but when I run the application with X-Linux, It shows this message:

Could you help me?

Looks like your program doesn't have the necessary permissions to obtain a line, or JavaSound isn't supported on "X-Linux"

Why won't my Vision:M 30GB play MP3

Can anyone help me out and explain to me why my Vision:M freezes up when I try to play 96kbps mp3's?Doesn't seem to have a problem playing mp3's at 44kbps or .wav files, but then that kind of defeats the purpose of being able to sample a rather sizeable file down ( @ 30+MB per?file ) so I can get as many mp3's ( @ 2.5+MB per file ) onto the player. The firmware on the player is the same version as what can be currently downloaded. I do recall reading something about formatting and reloading the player and haven't tried that yet... Appreciate the assistance.

Hi. I use Adobe Acrobat XI pro to make a PDF ebook embedded with audio. It works really well on my computer-I can read the book and hear the auto play mp3. The problem is, when I send it to my customers, they have difficulty hearing the audio. A few of them say they have Flash player on their PC and somehow they still can't hear, some say their Google Chrome browser tells them they've already got one flash player while they try to download one. For me, I had to download two versions of Flash player to be able to access to the audio. I don't know what the problem is, is it because it's the latest version of Adobe Acrobat XI pro that people with older version of Adobe reader or flash player can't open it properly? Or is it something else? How can I make sure every customer with different system can access to my books? Hope to hear from you ASAP! Thank you very much.

And how are the customers accessing the PDFs?
What devices are they using?
What program or apps with versions are they using?
I this age of other then PDF eBooks formats and reader program and apss for computers and mobile devices for these formats I would look at creating the books in one or more of the eBook formats.
Google Chrome and FireFox both have their own version of a PDF reader plug-in and they are well known to be less capable than Adobe Reader. It is possible to configure these products to use Adobe Reader.

[SOLVED] unable to play mp3 or flac files in mpd, .dts files play fine

I had a perfect running mpd setup before I tried to fiddle around with some dependancies to get xbmc-svn to compile without errors. I installed some AUR packages (ffmpeg-svn, x264-git, libva-sds, libvpx, libid3tag).
After that I started to experience trouble with mpd, it start fine and says it plays audio files just fine but whenever i play a mp3 or flac file the progress bar just looks like it's playing the file but I hear no sound. Whenever I play a .dts file i hear the sound correct.
I'm very curious to why this happends.
I rolled back the packages mentioned above but the issue remains unsolved.

Whenever I run xbmc using the hdmi digital output it just plays mp3 and flac files without problems.
Anyone any clues on how to solve this issue?

ITunes takes a few seconds to start playing MP3 files

I just started using this new MacBook Pro and transfered my music library to the new laptop. I'm having a problem with iTunes playing MP3 files: when I double click on a MP3 track iTunes seems to freeze for like 3 - 4 seconds before the track starts playing and then it plays normally without a hitch. This is happening with each and every MP3 track that I have in the library as well as new MP3 tracks that I'm adding. Th short delay/freeze also occurs when I try to view or alter the info of an MP3 track in the library, so that when I right click on a track and click Get Info, the 'Get Info' screen will take about 3 - 4 seconds to show up and the same freeze happens when I click OK to close the 'Get Info' screen.
Note that this happens only with MP3 tracks. Tracks purchased from the iTunes store (AAC) do not have this problem and start playing without any delay/freeze.
Another weird tidbit: When MP3 tracks are in the same playlist (or album) and I let them play one after another (without me skipping to the next/previous song) then the delay/freeze does not occur at all. This delay seems to just happen when I start playing a song or when I click the fast forward/Rewind buttons to skip to the next/previous track.
Does anyone know what might be causing this? And if a fix is available somewhere? Thanks in advance!

It only happens on mp3s not on AAC's to me too! Just so you all know. I thought an EXTERNAL DRIVE was my problem but after hours of research I found it's probably an intentional bug (just kidding Apple you don't hate other companies that much....geesh! ) It might not be this...but you never know.
I thought maybe it was the TAG but it seems this has nothing to do with it. Point is either Apple left a bug on the last update of itunes MP3s because to them it's less of a priority or it's being messed up by Amazon folders (still looking in to), or maybe there was a problem with the install.
So far my options are to get an MP3 to AAC convertor and dump my 3000 songs into a program for converting, wait for an update, reinstall, or keep looking for a missed solution.
Any help would be appreciated!!

Cannot play MP3 files in Dreamweaver CS4

Hi
Apogogies if this has been asked before.
I have an embedded MP3 file on one of my DWCS4 pages but when I try to play it from the Properties Inspector I get the message "Unable to find the plugin that handles this media type".
The sound file plays OK in Firefox and IE but I would like to be able to test it in DW. I have the currrent version of Apple QuickTime Pro installed.
I am using both Windows XP and Vista with the same problem.
Is there a plug I can download for DW only in order to play these files without resorting to converting the MP3 to another format.
Any help would be much appreicated.
Thanks
George

Yes but I did exactly what I accused you of doing so it was really bad!
Software troubles can drive you a bit crazy. Sorry again.

Hi
Thank you for the apology, but as we have all (probably), misread and
therefore wrongly replied to posts, it is not really necessary.

Zen Nano Plus wont play mp3 fi

I cannot get my Nano Plus player to play mp3 files. I have reformatted the dri've but it still will not play them. This includes home-made mp3 files with no rights issues. When I transfer files to the Nano Plus and try to play them they simply will not start playing. Instead of the triangle "Play" icon, there is a solid square "Stop" icon in the display and the timer stays at 0:00. I have played some of these mp3 files in the past but none of them will play now.
Any ideas?
Thank you,
Tony

Creative MuVo N2000 doesn't play MP3 files anymore?! HE

Hi everyone,
I hope someone can help me out. Here's the problem.
My MuVo N200 player doesn't play mp3 files anymore.. there's only a strange noise comming from the player if i attempt to play mp3's...he only plays the wma files?! I gave my player to my flatmate so she could here music on her vacation to the US, and that's when the problem started. I never had this problem before, and i wonder if she acidently pushed a buttom she shouldn't. I can't figure out how to fix it. Anyone has a clue what has happend, or if the player is "lost" :-( ?! PS: The player is brand new.
Help is appriciated
Thx Lizzy ;-)Message Edited by lizzard on 08-23-2005 03:45 AM

Unfortunately, NONE of my friends use Windows anymore , even at work we use Linux for security reasons. So what am i supposed to do now... They have a link at Creative that makes you belei've that they support Linux and offer you the possibility to choose the operating system, in other words=Linux. When i told in a mail to Creative Norway that they offer Linux support at their download-site, they actualy had the nerve to tell me that they don't do that!! I told them to remove the choice if they don't offer it, and don't try to tell people that they are eighter blind or stupid, and i pasted the Link + added a Screenshot of the page into the mail!! I realy got upset. It is the last time i by something from Creative. My first player from Creative lasted exactly 2 weeks, after that he stopped working for one odd reason, so i paid a little more in order to get a better one in exchange, and that device didn't li've longer than month eighter?
Not exactly QUALITY we are talking about..aren't we?
What to do, what to do?
Anyone has a clue?
