Lossless encodes crash my iPod

LagunaSol · Post by **LagunaSol** » Fri Jan 20, 2006 12:30 am

Any songs I rip in Max to lossless crash my iPod 3 seconds into the song. I have to reboot the iPod completely.

I have a 3G iPod, using the latest versions of iTunes, QuickTime, and iPod software, OS 10.4.3.

Can anyone else confirm this issue?

I guess I should clarify: I'm ripping to Apple Lossless (MP4) when I encounter this problem.

Which quality setting are you using for the Apple Lossless files?

Maximum quality.

Try the minimum quality setting. It could be that, since Apple Lossless support was introduced with the 3G, the processor isn't able to handle a lossless file set to maximum quality.

if you mean that you are converting to files with an .mp4 extension then you should change your settings for core audio and use the .m4a extension...
