Rick Steves Audio Tours - AAC Format

Has anyone been successful loading and playing any of Rick Steves Audio Tours on the Clip Zip? These podcasts are available for download at the iTunes store. They are AAC (m4a) files that run for as long as 48 minutes (about 24 MB). In addition to the audio there are pictures embedded and several section breaks.

 

I have been able to transfer to the Clip Zip and see the titles in the Podcast section of the menu. However, I have not had any success in playing any of these poscasts. The Clip Zip justs displays a static screen and no sound.

 

These files play fine on an iPod. Are they just beyond the capabilities of the Clip Zip? The Clip Zip is advertised as an AAC capable player.

 

Thanks for any help or insight anyone can provide.

I have an early theory, but I shall investigate this and report back. :wink:
