    hi,

    i am having problems playing mp3 files that i have recently converted from ape files using media centre 11. i am converting from ape format, and these mp3 files play fine in other players. i can import them into dj traktor studio but then when i drag them to one of the decks, nothing happens, except an exclamation mark appears next to the track. i am unable to analyse audio - i get the error message - 'not all tracks have been analysed - please make sure the tracks are available and valid audio files.

    i have succesfully imported and used other mp3 files (converted a long time ago)

    can anyone suggest what might be the issue here. like i say i can play these mp3 files in all other players (windows media, realplayer, itunes...)

    thanks

    nick

    Have you been able to play other files that you converted with media centre 11?
    If not, that may be your problem.
    I'd try converting the files with an app that used the LAME codec.
    You can get LAME for iTunes here:

    yes, i can convert other formats Ok using media centre, and media centre does use the LAME encoder.

    the trouble with using itunes is that it doesn't support ape files
