1st songs skip on ipod

[Sossity]

I have been using the cd ripper & batch converter with success so far, but I have noticed that some of my albums that I used the batch converter to convert from flac to mp3 lame CBR 256 quality will skip the 1st songs & go straight to the 2and songs on my ipod.

I have tried alot of things; restoring my ipod, checking itunes, checking my itunes library, & the problem has traced back to the converter. One album that was skipping the 1st song, I erased it from my ipod & external hard drive, then reloaded the album in the batch converter that I had ripped in flac & reconverted it. Then I reloaded it on my ipod through itunes, tried playing the album again, & the 1st song does not skip now, so there must be a problem with the previous conversions of my flac albums.

I have quite a few albums that I have ripped in flac & want to convert to mp3 for itunes & my ipod, & want to find a way to prevent the song skipping, I dont want to load a bunch of my albums onto my ipod, to discover that they skip songs, then have to tediously go through my library of mp3 albums to find ones that have skipping songs, this is a pain & waste of time.

Re: 1st songs skip on ipod

If you have a track which skips, and you reconvert and it does not skip, keep both files so they can be compared.

dBpoweramp I am quite sure is not 'random' when creating mp3 files, in that reconverting creates identical files.
