Bugzilla – Bug 10091
Track length become gigantic
Last modified: 2009-01-08 10:50:23 UTC
For some of my tracks, my squeezebox pads the songs with approx an hour of "no sound" at the end. I have seen this problem for both WMA and mp3 files. The track works fine at my mp3 player and in windows media player, but on my squeezebox the track becomes more than an hour long.
Please upload a sample file so we can investigate. Thanks.
Which version of SqueezeCenter are you running?
Hi Im running 7.2.1
Looks like this file was deleted.
Paal: can you upload the file?

How did you rip that file? SC really is confused about it: File Format: MP3 Duration: 25:47 Bitrate: 32kbps CBR Sample Rate: 44.1 kHz File Length: 6,203,256 OSX says it's 192kbps - which might explain why SC thinks it's 6x longer than it actually is. That said it doesn't add silence, but forwards to the next track after the regular playing time.
I don't quite remember about this spesific file, but I saw it on another file aswell which was ripped i Windows medial player to WMA format, but that file was deleted before I remembered that i should report this as a problem in SC
Changing target to next release
This is a problem with the ID3 tag of the file. Stop Time = 25:47.755 Michale is correct, other players like iTunes and Windows Media Player treat the track in the exact same way SqueezeCenter is. I.E. they wait till the EOT before moving to the next track in the queue
