Is there any known problems with mp3 playback with dbpro? I am writing an archiving/playback application and have discovered that when i play back some mp3's there is a 'knocking' sound which is out of time with the music. This noise is not apparent using media player. Any help would be appreciated , cheers.

could be some corruption in the mp3 data, not sure.
Maybe it's evil virus code knocking on the door, trying to be let out!

ok, that was stupid

Does it play properly in BASSMod/FMod ? If you like, you can sent me the MP3 and I'll see what its like in BASSMod & the standard MP3 system.

okay , ive cut a section out and resaved it as a 128k 44100hz stereo mp3 incase of encoding differences and the noise is still apparent. it plays nice in media player and music match. I will send you the sample Mr Tatoad to see if you have any insight

My drivers are up to date ,my mp3s sound fine on other playback software yet i still hear this godawfull 'knocking'. ARGH it must all be in my head , im going to bang it off a wall

What I might do this evening is write a program to play it through BASSMOD, then you can see what it does with that.

Yeah, I've had that problem too. Any chance you can pinpoint what codec it is? I haven't got a clue whats on my system codec wise, so I wouldnt know where to start it annihilating the right codec.

Insiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiide!

i will look at the codecs it installs when i get a chance,but short of going through each one individually i cant be sure. you could just try removing them one at a time?

ill post the list later
