End chopped off audio track

Hello,

I've made three music videos for my band so far and had no problems. On the fourth I'm having a problem with the end of the song. The last 10 secs of audio are chopped off. Reloading the audio or removing the audio from memory fixes it for 1 or two plays but then it breaks again.

Any thoughts guys?

Cheers :)

If you post a link so I can download the exact file you’re having problems with, I’ll take a look.

Thanks. Could you also post one of the files that works properly so I can compare the two?

The only difference I can see is the bitrate. The problematic song is 272kbps (very nonstandard!) while the other one is 320kbps (very standard). Perhaps there was some kind of error when the problematic one was created?

Ah ok cool, thanks Eric. I'll convert it to 320 fixed rate and try again :) I'll let you know how it goes.

The other thing I noticed is that when I play the file with VLC, the length changes during the course of playback... very strange.
