Anyone else having problems with some mp3 files playing in xbmp 2.1. I have ripped several of my audio cd's into mp3 and uploaded them to the xbox. I had to change a few file names to meet the xfat naming requirements. Anyways I notice that some of the mp3's will not play at all. some will play for 2-3 seconds then stop, and others will have an annoying pop sound at the beginning of the song. When I play the exact same mp3 on my computer it plays flawlessly. I have compared the file sizes, and even re-uploaded the song but the same thing happens. I tjust seems to be picky about certain songs. I am using cdex to rip the tracks into standard 128 kbps mp3 format. Just wondering if this is a common problem or not. It's not a huge problem, I'd say maybe 1 out of every 10-15 songs is affected in one of these ways, but still I'd rather fix it if I can.

I am also having issues with divx avi's with mp3 encoded audio... Some play fine, others stop while playing randomly. These are all videos that worked on beta6, so I switched back! (Waiting for another CVS snapshot, e.g. 2.2!)

I have exactally the same problem, the only solution i came to was to convert he mp3 to another format like .wav

I have heaps of problem with this player as i copied 4 mp3's to the xbox but i can only play 1 of them,my biggest problem with this player is as i have 4gig of music vidoes on my hard drive all played fine in version 5 beta and after installing the next version more and more will not play at all just bloody black screen. I have just downloaded the lastest version and i will test it tomorrow and if anymore problems i will install the old version 5 beta and stuff any more updates
