petomane Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 Hi, My problem is that when I try to create a cue file from the mp3s in one specific downloaded torrent, ImgBurn freezes and gives me a 'not responding' message at the top of the log file. The files play perfectly on my laptop and I have, of course, checked them for viruses. And I have NO trouble with other mp3 files. Any comments would be appreciated.
Rincewind Posted February 27, 2011 Posted February 27, 2011 It could be that directshow doesn't like some of the files is my only guess.
dbminter Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 A problem with the MP3's is my guess, also. I recently downloaded some MP3's of a CD set off of Big Finish's web site. I was able to import some of them into ImgBurn, but about half returned some error that I forget and showed up as running 00:00:00 seconds long. I had to use Nero to import them to create a playable CD.
ianymaty Posted February 28, 2011 Posted February 28, 2011 If you open the cue in Notepad, you probably will spot the problematic file as it will have very short playing time, usualy less than 2 sec. Just eliminate that file from the cue. You could paste the cue content here, someone will have a look at it.

There aren't cue files with the torrents (2 cds of 'The very best of latin jazz') - so there's nothing to open! I don't normally have problems creating cue files, but with these 2 beggars: ImgBurn just freezes. I CAN actually import the files by the 'Write to disc' method, but then they'll only play on my Sony dvd player, not my cd player. I guess I'll have to go the dbminter-y route and try Nero-fiddling while Img Burns...... It's that, or the sapient pearwood! It's a puzzle, but as long as it doesn't happen with music that I REALLY MUST HAVE on cd, I'm not too bothered. Regards, Peter
LIGHTNING UK! Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 What does ImgBurn actually say when processing those files? (in the cue window I mean) If you have one it always gets stuck on, send it to me and I'll take a look.
dbminter Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 LUK, do you want me to send you one of my MP3's that wouldn't import?
LIGHTNING UK! Posted March 2, 2011 Posted March 2, 2011 If there's something that always gets stuck, yup please do

It then takes quite a while to close it with Task Manager. That 'not responding' just seems to drag on and on....
