Hi...
This may sound crazy, but my memory stick pro duo (which I use in my p990i) does not play mp3s greater in size than 4.2 MB. It copies them and shows them up fine, but just...wont...play.
Any ideas??? I've tried re-formatting, FAT-FAT32 changes... i've even upgraded the software on the p990..have the latest one now...but nooo
thanks!!

My K750 does. I know it's a long shot, but if this is not stanbdard for P990 (which I doubt it is) have you tried a master reset, or possibly a firmware update? Might be worth a try.

Strange? i have played a 2 hour mix set with a file size of around 120Mb before on a 1Gb ms duo in a W900i???
also as i'm a sound quality freak i often play mp3 tracks between 5 and 10 meg in size! |

I think the problem is your MP3.
As far as i know, SE can play MP3 with bitrate 196 kbps and lower.
Maybe your MP3's have higher bitrate.

I have many songs more than 4.2 MB size since I always converted songs to 160 or 196 kbps MP3 files. The songs stored in 2 GB Sony High Speed MSD Pro inserted to my P990 and all can be played normally.
Apple iPhone 4, HTC Evo 3D, HTC Sensation, HTC Inspire 4G, HTC Desire S, HTC Wildfire, S001, SO905iCS, T650 (Gold & Green), C901, W800, K660, K700, Beibei (G702), Severine (DEAD) |

I use AAC mostly, file sizes often larger than 3MB and I have also the odd MP3 which is usually larger than 3MB. I've played 256Kbps mp3's no worries (though K750 only supports 192Kbps for mp3 - so quality is limited to 192 playback)

The problem should be with its firmware or so. I have PVD's Reflections at 320kbps every single track and there's a delay every time a track is about to play.

Agreed. Do the format. This issue will be a problem with format or the host.
