Title: IPOD/179/22/conversion on tranfer fails
Post by: interested on June 03, 2003, 01:01:05 pm

Hi

New IPOD, recognized just fine by MC9.  Can successfully transfer .mp3 from server (using Media Server) to IPOD.

However, my files are all in .wma format.  Doing a conversion to mp3 or VBR mp3 while transferring causes MC9 to crash.

Server is win2k.  Client is win xp home.

Also, trying to do a simple conversion, file is listed as "file not found" under Status in File Convert dialog.

What can I do/provide to help solve this puzzle?

Thanks for the cool product.

Can you try converting a file without uploading first?  Just as a test?  Try installing the WMA encoder plug-in.

Make sure you have recent versions of both MC and the iPod plug-in.

Don't use Media Server if you are also doing conversions (as a test).

Please switch to the iPod support thread.
