dMC has always been perfectly behaved for me in the past (still using v9c as I haven't had time to update). Tried to convert an mp3 file to wav today, and got an error message "the file xxxxxx could not be opened". This goes for all the mp3s in this folder - but in some cases, the message reads "cannot read header". I note that most of these mp3s have ID3 tags. Is this the problem, or is there something else I should do? As I have said many times before, I love the program - would never replace it. Thank you!
I have tried another avenue - if I open the 'test conversion without writing' option, dMC opens the file and converts it. But it still will not convert to .wav if instructed to do that - unable to open file or unable to read header are two advice messages which come up (one or the other) when I hit the 'convert' button. (WinXP pro, 800MHz ram, 15+ Gig hard drive space).
Edit. To further assist in solving this. I converted an mp3 file which dMC had refused to convert (cannot open file) to .wav in Sound Forge, and then tried to convert the .wav file to mp3 (LAME) in dMC, but still got the error message 'cannot open this file'. Please, why is this hapening? I've got a stack of mp3s waiting to convert, and I'm stuck with this problem.
