Problem Cause and Solution
Audio skipping occurs during playback. Many things can cause a “skip”, or any break during
playback. If you are hearing breaks in playback, here
are some things to check:
When you hear a skip, restart the track, or seek
backwards a bit, to hear if the skip is actually in the
music le.
Check to see if you are using the latest rmware
and desktop software. This is very important, as
software is updated frequently. See PhatNoise
Music Manager manual.
Sometimes a heavily fragmented cartridge can
skip due to increased seek times. Defragment the
cartridge for best performance. See PhatNoise
Media Manager™ software instructions for
defragmenting a cartridge.
WMA les are not playing in the Mobile Digital
Media system.Some software such as Windows Media Player features
copy protection in their WMA encoding tools. This
prevents the tracks from playing on any device other
than your computer. Disable any “Copy Protect Music”
check box when encoding music. Consult your
software’s manual for more information.
