    Music skipping/jumping for certain songs

    Hi, I have noticed that certain songs when you unpause them they seem to skip and jump for about 2-3 seconds before continuing to play as normal. Most songs continue to play just fine however. I still need to determine what the difference is between
    these songs, etc. Has anyone else noticed this with certain songs?

    Certain Albums/Songs Download but Dont Play

    Hi I just recently (14th April 2011) found problems with downloads certain songs. Specifically the artists Chromium, Deas Vail, Celldweller and Hawthorne Heights.



    What happens is I download them as usual the whole file downloads with no errors BUT the songs are firstly filed incorectly on the P.C (not in folders of artist and album). Secondly they don't have any metadata/ info embeded in the file (artist album publisher
    etc) and Finaly but most importantly they dont play, not on my winamp or nokia media player. If I use nokia media player an exclamation mark in a yellow triangle appears next to the Song.

    This has only happened with those artists so far.. Any Suggestions.



    I'm using a Nokia N8 unlimited Music subscription in South Africa.
