:confused: :confused: what the hell? now the sound is completely gone from itunes. i guess its not related to limewire because even the songs i had then went from cd straight to itunes are completely having no sound.

i personally am attractive to the undiscovered beauties. ;)

btw, dont be discouraged about downloading 128kbps bitrate mp3's... just know that sometimes they are not what they appear. personally, i go for anything thats 128kbps or higher bitrate. and i do try to stay away from the variable bitrate mp3's (those can usually be found haveing the tilde "~" symbol before the bitrate number) these files can be ~128kbps one sec, and then goto ~80kbps the next.

which anything under 128kbps are generally not very good quality mp3's and i suggest always go with the higher bitrate (but stay away from variable bitrate unless you have to)..

ta ta for now.

Hi hotgirl69

Not sure but check your sound card settings, and make sure it isn't set to digital audio only.

for a little information on music quality and bit rates check this link out. http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...=music+quality

hi.
hi. no clue what that is. on the audio section of itunes my settings are at: crossfade playback (in the middle)
sound enhancer is off
sound check is on
look for remote speakers connected with airtunes is on (no clue what that means)
disable itunes vulme control for remote speakers is off

ive played around with the audio section and still no luck.


update: i figured out now how to get the sound to be alright on itunes. its not the best like it was before but its better than nothing. the weird thing is when i get an instant message from my friend on aim, his message is fricken loud.

Within iTunes, select the song & choose get info (or control+i) & you'll see in the Options section there is an ability to increase the volume. This is purely id3tag info & doesn't affect the file for burning, etc. It might also only apply to iTunes.

iTunes is a decent program to use especially since it has its own library. Many other players are simply reference players/playlist players. So if you delete or move the song the player won't be able to play it. Duh! :rolleyes:

As for corrupt mp3's, another technique to discover them before you downld is here: T3 Spammers; mp3 Bit-Rates Versus File Sizes & the reason for these corrupt songs is here: Most Popular Songs R' Corrupt I don't think corrupt songs only applies to 128 kbps. It depends upon the source & noticeable if you compare the bit rate to the file size which indicates something is wrong. I've seen corrupt files at 320 kbps & lower.

It has been said there's mp3 fixes but these do NOT always fix these corrupt files. mp3 fixers: video-fixer http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...x&pagenumber=2 =&postid=108757#post108757 which also fixes mp3's & also MP3RepairTool : http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...upt+and+repair =&postid=114904#post114904
