Hi all. I attempted to copy and paste an mp3 file in to a folder called Carroll Centre 2 but when I attempt to find the file using the Plextalk player, it doesn't recognize the file. I deleted the files in the plextalk carroll centre folder and then copied and pasted them in to the folder but it still doesn't recognize the file. However, the player recognizes the rest of the files. Do you have any suggestions on how Plextalk could recognize this file? Thanks for your help and have a great day.
Try putting the file on a blank CF card and see if it will play. If it will not you have a problem with this file. If it does you have a problem with your folder allocation Frank -----Original Message----- From: Plextalk [mailto:plextalk-bounces@lists.hodgsonfamily.org] On Behalf Of John Christie Sent: Tuesday, November 03, 2015 10:20 AM To: plextalk@lists.hodgsonfamily.org Subject: [Plextalk] ptp1 doesn't recognize an mp3 file Hi all.

Hi, Are you sure that it's an mp3 file? (It might be an M4A file, for example.) Plextalk won't play M4A format files.) I once had an "album" of ten tracks, nine of them mp3's and the other one M4A: Plextalk would play the other nine files, but not the M4a. You might need a file converter from M4A or whatever format it actually is, to mp3. -----Original Message----- From: John Christie Sent: Tuesday, November 03, 2015 6:19 PM To: plextalk@lists.hodgsonfamily.org Subject: [Plextalk] ptp1 doesn't recognize an mp3 file Hi all.

Hi Flor. I believe it's an mp3 file. Windows media player plays it. What program would I use to be sure that it's an mp3 file and how do I check to be sure that's it is an mp3 file?

Hi John, In don't know what file-type it is then, since WMP doesn's normally play M4A files. Have you got the WinAmp player? If so, does it play there? If you have the Plextalk Transfer software, or if you can attach the PlexTalk by USB to your PC, they explore the relevant file folder in the PT drive with your computer. See if you get any anomalous filename endings. -----Original Message----- From: John Christie Sent: Wednesday, November 04, 2015 12:45 AM To: 'Plextalk User Discussion List' Subject: Re: [Plextalk] ptp1 doesn't recognize an mp3 file Hi Flor.

Flor, I solved the problem. There was a period at the beginning of the file name. That's why the player wouldn't recognize the name. Thanks for your suggestions and have a great day. Hi Flor.
