The problem with doing that is the Super will first decode the file (guessing mp3pro) into .wav format and re-transcode the file into mp3 again. It wil like in above mentioned scenarios have severe loss in quality.

You should be able to get the required codec to play the original file somewhere online. just try googleing something like WMP+mp3pro+codec

Thanks Sleepless...

I read about the loss of quality in transcoding, and I'm sure you are right...from an audiophiles perspective. Guess I just couldn't notice an audible difference on the media players I use. I tried a few times to search for solutions to this quirk, but had no luck. Its funny how "Irfanview" ...a graphics program with a player app....will play almost every type of file I encounter, but for some reason I like the GUI of the Windows player ....legacy issues in my old school mentality. Thanks for clarifying the original point on quality though.
