mp3 files show as "File Format not supported"[ Edited ]Options
12-14-2015 04:43 AM - edited 12-14-2015 04:48 AM I am puzzled. I have 5 of the Sandisk Clip Sport (8GB). I use them with a 64 GB MicroSD card, no problem.
Now I face an unexplainable (for me at least) issue. I have two file directories with lectures. Both look absolutely identical to me when I check the file type (with mp3tag) - but one plays without problem and one does not play at all and gives the message "File Format not supported"
Files in both are: MPEG 1 Layer III, Tag ID3v2.3, 128 kBps, mp3 Format
I put both in the 8 GB Storage area, still the same. One directory plays and the other says "File Format not supported".
Would appreciate any idea how to solve this issue. Thanks.

Thanks, maybe some input for others with a similar problem.

11-25-2018 09:56 PM Thank you. Your post was helpful. I encountered the same problem with a homemade MP3 mix file and couldn't transfer it to my Clip Jam without your advice. Listening to it now. Awesome. Thanks so much! |
