mp3 audio in MVMMCX2?

[leaded1]

I've been playing around with the various music plugins (Music, Music Library, and ML3) and found a bunch of my .mp3's don't play audio over the NMT. They play fine from the NMT file share intercface, but not through GBPVR. Are there any constraints on the type of files that get played?

2 files from the same artist different albums (different folder in the same directory)
Plays fine --> MPEG-1 Layer 3 CBR 44100Hz 256 kb/s tot , Stereo
Plays Silence --> MPEG-1 Layer 3 CBR 44100Hz 192 kb/s tot , Stereo

I haven't come across a standard file that I couldn't play. Without logs, I can only speculate but my first thoughts are that the files that don't play might have an accent or other special character which GBPVR doesn't support very well. I've it's a normal filename, I will have a listen if you send me a sample.

to me it looks like the file is playing normally in the logs, but there is no sound on the NMT. [ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]

Are all NMT the same (flash ver etc) ?

I had a weird 'some mp3 play, some dont' recently.. but it was with the MVP.

leaded1 is your G: a share? If so I consider this a permissions problem. I can play your sample fine in the GBPVR library and in the ML3 I uploaded today (it even shows the embedded art).

Dave72, the NMT's all are basically close enough not to consider that the problem. Your problem was easily explainable too, since the files were bad not the MVP.

Thanks for trying my file, at least I know it is something unique to my set-up. G: drive is just an external hard-drive on my server. Is there some way to start over with permissions? It seems like mine are all hosed up.
Thanks again,

I deleted these album level folders and replaced with a copy from another computer and now they play fine. I think I have some weird permissions issues at the lowest folder/file level. I can copy the bad file to another folder with files that do play and the bad files still don't play...
Oh well, I'll chalk this one up to my lack of understanding of computers and networking and call it a day and listen to some music.
thanks again for your help
