PSP MP3 Playback Problems
When I try and playback an MP3, the timer/counter gets to anywhere between 00:00 and 00:02 and then stops. No sound is heard from the speakers and playback appears to be hung. The attempted playback cannot be stopped and as the PSP has the file open it cannot be deleted without a full reboot.
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Are there any particular bitrates , filenames etc. I need to use.
Thanks

Re: PSP MP3 Playback Problems
A quick update for anyone interested:
I've now established that my PSP cannot play either MP3 audio or MPEG4 movies. After copying movies known to work on an other PSP to my memory card, I'm now sure this is not an issue with the files or the way they were encoded etc.
As I see it, the next thing to try is a different Memory Stick DUO, which I'll do when mate's PSP arrives. (Wireless Lumines battles, can't wait!) After that, the only thing I can think of that might sort it is a flash of the firmware when an update is released?
Re: PSP MP3 Playback Problems
man that sounds crap!! have you heard any other reports on other people with this problem because if it happenes alot i would rather no!
Re: PSP MP3 Playback Problems
No, I don't know of anyone else affected by this problem.
I've now managed to test another memory card with known good MP3's on (I.E. works in another PSP) and it still doesn't work :( I'm a bit concerned now as I imagine this can only be a firmware or hardware issue.
If anyone hears of anyone else with similar problems please point them in my direction, I'd be keen to share notes.
Re: PSP MP3 Playback Problems
I have problems with atrac3plus tracks and mp4 vids they jst dont seem to work wots wrong ???
Re: PSP MP3 Playback Problems
Dunno, still got the problem. As I said, I've tried a different memory stick from another PSP with videos that I know should work, but no luck on my PSP. The last real hope I have is a firmware update which I'm hoping will come out when the PSP is released to western terratories.
Do I take it from your post that you can play MP3s?
Re: PSP MP3 Playback Problems
yeah mp3s but not atrac3 plus files as you say i hope a official firmware update comes out
???
