Not sure what this is, but its bugging the heck out of me. Its only with a few mp3s. When I play a track, if I let it play till the end, it seem like it plays fine, but when it gets to the end, it keeps going, like repeating, but its not repeating form beginning, its repeating form the midle or something. Its like the put the same song twice in a dj mix.

If I try to move the track scroll bar, to lets say 13 mins, its not the same part of the song, as to when I let it play by itself to 13 mins. And if I scroll, its like the whole 53min track, is the first 5 mins of the track.

I have serched the forum, havent found anything about this yet.

PS: Media Player plays it fine, winamp does not.

I have the pro version 5.02. Thanks.

also, Im going to upload the track, its 82M. So if a tester needs it, please PM me so I can give you the link.

Sounds like poorly encoded or corrupt mp3's to me.
What software & encoder was used?
What vbr settings were used?

Try testing these files with these utilities:
MP3Utility (http://www.geocities.com/mp3utility/) | vbrfix (http://www.willwap.co.uk/Programs/vbrfix.html) | EncSpot (http://www.mpex.net/en/software/details/encspot.html) | Audacity (http://audacity.sourceforge.net/)

Any sync errors / header corruptions etc reported?

Yeah, MP3Utility and EncSpot are just for showing info/quality/errors/corruption/etc.

Glad to hear vbrfix fixed it for you :)

Case closed.
