iPhone Bug: Silent tracks for 5 secs [Solved]

[judas]

Hi, i noticed some ot the files I have on my iphone didn't work: they would play for 5 seconds (no audio) and that's it...the file transferred normally, album art and all, and they were all plain 128k mp3 which played perfectly on MM.

First i thought the cause was the non-english characters, so removed them and re-transferred the files, but no luck. Then i discovered the problem lies with extensions being on Uppercase and not lower case.

I changed the case with Steegy's script, and then removed the files from the ipod and resynched it: now it works perfectly.

If you just change the extension and sync without deleting the tracks they won't work cause MM won't recognize the file as having changed.

So, devs: there should be an option to convert extension to lowercase when syncing with iphone...actually, it should be done automatically.

> actually, it should be done automatically.

Agreed. And the MM failure to recognise case change as significant should be fixed too.

Thanks, it will be fixed in the next release.
