Force MP3 to MP3 encoding

[dopegroove]

I think I know what has been happening to some of my mp3s that refuse to play on my Android client.

I think that if I force them to be re-encoded, it will work. I have tried to make and mp3 to mp3 transcode option but it does not seem to work. Is there another way other then ogging my whole library?

Upload this MP3 to Android and check with Android player...

I don't think this is the reason because when I try to play the song in subsonic, the file that is created in the subsonic folder on the device is 0 kb in size. I converted the same file to mp4 and played it on subsonic with no issues

I do not think lame is encoding the file correctly. Also I bunch of these files so I do not think that will help

Just for test upload not playable MP3 file... my be this files is a broken.

Yep it plays.... I think the issue is on the subsonice server.....

Check also if this files at 48 kHz or other sample rate. Post log after attempt to play this files.

I have a number of old MP3's that are like this. Is my only solution to reencode? Ones that I have have made and others from podcasts that I download.

Is there no way to for mp3 to wav and then wav to mp3?

Send example file to my e-mail...

I have sent dropbox link to a file that I have issues playing in subsonic on my phone. It appears the download from subsonic fails. The file is zero bytes in size. I have no issues playing it if I download it right to the phone.

I hope this helps

Remove apostrophe from file name and test again. I no other ideas...

[dopegroove]

Hmmm that did not work

The download that get int the android subsonic folder is zero bytes in size. It is like is failed to start encoding on subsonic.

Her is clip of my log.

Does the andriod subsonic player stream ogg? Maybe I can for transcoding to that....
