Re: Sub-standard MP3 VBR derived - what to do? |
This is bizarre. The MP3-files produced by the deriver don't work in Windows Media Player 10. I get an error message, "The input media format is invalid." Both VBR and 64kbps versions. What's up?

Re: Sub-standard MP3 VBR derived - what to do? |
This is a known issue, Windows Media Player will not play files with an id3 tag that contains a creative commons license. This is either Microsoft's subtle way of telling you you're a communist for using CC, or a bug on there end :). We suggest users try alternatives such as iTunes, Winamp, etc.

Re: Sub-standard MP3 VBR derived - what to do? |
I would guess that our deriver software can't handle the original pre-conversion format of the audio. I think someone else has had this problem recently. You might want to mail qa at archive dot org and explain the issue succinctly.

Re: Sub-standard MP3 VBR derived - what to do? |
The issue is with generating ID2 tags with recent entries in the Open Source Audio section.
I've sent you a detailed letter with my troubleshooting and the results, hopefully that'll help in getting the thing fixed.

Re: Sub-standard MP3 VBR derived - what to do? |
Help, I'm having the same problem. My derived mp3 files won't play on Windows Media Player. I get the same error message as the previous poster. Can you please email me the detailed troubleshooting info that was sent to the previous poster?
