This MP3 contains frames which do not conform strictly to the ofcial MP3 specication. Scratch Live
can not be certain that this le will play back 100% accurately.
This le contains two or more contiguous corrupt frames. Since corrupt frames are replaced with
silence, this could result in what might sound like an audio glitch.
The rst MPEG audio frame in this le refers to audio that should be present before it but is not. This
is usually the result of incorrect MP3 editing. Since a corrupt frame is replaced with silence and most
songs start with silence, the resulting silence might not be noticeable. All the same, listen to the
beginning of the song, just to be sure.
Decoding of an MPEG audio frame failed. This means that the frame contained invalid data. As usual
with corrupt frames, this frame will be played as silence.
Scratch Live is reading an old overview of an MP3 that has been edited in a thrid party editing
program. Re-building the overviews for the affected les usually corrects this error.
Self explanatory. Possible causes are disk bad sectors, le system corruption, wrong le types, wrong
le extensions, etc
Scratch Live encountered invalid data while looking for audio in this le. This message alerts you to
the fact that the le you're trying to play contains corrupt data. This may, or may not, affect playback.
No audio could be found in this le, which means it is completely unplayable as far as Scratch Live is
concerned. Please make sure this really is an audio le.
While scanning this le, Scratch Live found frames belonging to multiple MPEG layers. Scratch Live
does not support MP3s containing frames from multiple layers – some frames may output as silence.
Self explanatory. At the moment, Scratch Live does not support les that are 2 GB in size (or larger).
This le contains chunks of data that are larger than 2 GB. Scratch Live does not support les that are
more than 2 GB in size.
This WAV le contains no recognizable WAV data. It is quite possible that this might not be a WAV le.
WAV les can contain data in several formats. Scratch Live only supports WAV les that contain data
in the PCM format.
Scratch Live does not support sampling rates greater than 48 kHz. If you see this message, the
simplest approach is to re-sample the audio at 48 kHz and re-save the le.
Scratch Live supports a maximum of 24 bits per sample of audio data.
Scratch Live expected more data in the le, but found none. This could be because the le was
incorrectly truncated or because the data in the le is corrupt, causing Scratch Live to incorrectly
estimate the amount of data present in the le.
This le contains blocks of data that report their size to be zero. This message was inserted to identify
les that might cause lockups on previous versions of Scratch Live.
Scratch Live could not nd any audio in this le. Please check to make sure this le contains audio in
a format that Scratch Live supports.
This le contains samples of audio that are too small to represent accurately and will therefore
be truncated to zero. This should not result in any audible audio artifacts, but could cause audio
dropouts on earlier versions of Scratch Live.
