Title: Problem Syncing to Virtual Handheld (can't convert to 128 kbps) [solved]
Post by: richromano on May 26, 2014, 03:35:07 pm

I am running into a similar problem as:
http://yabb.jriver.com/interact/index.php?topic=76049.0

I have tried both MC18 and MC19.  When I try to sync a virtual handheld and select to force the format to be converted from MP3 VBR to MP3 128 kbps it only converts the files sometimes (usually not).  If I select to convert to another format such as .wav etc it will always convert.  Of course that doesn't help me since I need to convert to MP3 128 kbps.  If I use Tools->Convert Format it does work.  Any help would be appreciated.

The obvious question is if you have Options->Handheld->Conversion->Audio->Mode set to "Specified output format" and not the default "Specified output format only when necessary"

Thanks for the reply.  Yes it is set to "Specified output format".

Make sure you put MP3 in Handheld > Files, Paths, & More > Supported Types
