"Unknown file format" with MP3 320kbps

by NiavlysB Dec 1, 2012 7:51PM PST

When connected via WiFi to my DLNA server on my laptop PC, I can access my music and play it on my Samsung LED TV, as soon as it is recognized by the TV. OGG are not, while MP3 are recognized. But for some reason, the audio files of the LP that I just bought (as a MP3 download + physical CD) are not recognized by the TV. It says "Unknown file format" (I'm not sure of the exact english message, in French it says "Format de fichier inconnu"), although the files are MP3, just like in another folder where the MP3 files work flawlessly. The only difference I can see is that the non-recognized files are in 320 kbps, whereas the working ones are in 128 kbps - I have not checked all the others folders.

Does anyone have an explanation to this, and maybe a solution? Thanks.

Sylvain

Many of the models mention what encodings are supported.
