Hello,
I have an MP3 file that was recorded in a Tascam SSR-200 that is recognized in every application I open it in including Wavelab, Media Info, Windows Media Player, and VLC player but not Droid.  Droid does not recognize its Format, MIME type, PUID, nothing.  All other MP3 files I have are fine in Droid.  I would like to know if it is the file or Droid that is causing Droid to have problems with it.  Is anyone interested in helping with that?  I am running Droid v6.4, Signature file V92, Container signature 20170920.

Thank you,
Kevin Irelan

Hi Kevin,

Are you able to share the file? You can do so privately at pro...@nationalarchives.gsi.gov.uk

I suspect it'll be due to a sequence we presently seek (000000) not appearing where we currently expect it to appear (within 1436 bytes of the end of the file). We're already addressing that issue in the next release but it would be useful to see if this applies to your file or if there is some other reason for non-identification.

Hi Kevin, we updated the MP3 signature in the last signature update, if you download sig v93 this file should now identify,

Best,

Paul
