Music playback on HTC S730

[Guest 17-APG]

During music playback on the S730 I have noticed an annoying "stopping" of tracks. It lasts just a split second and will occur every 10 or 15 minutes. It's as if the audio output was momentairly switched off and then back on again. The same occurs if I use the HTC audio manager so it is not just with WMP.

I have used two different cards in my phone and the issue remains. I have also used the cards in other phones with WMP and playback is perfect.

Anyone else noticed this???

Same on my device. Didn't find a solution.

I had a similar issue some time back on a SP5 Smartphone and found it was an application I had installed (cannot remember which one) which was stressing Windows Media Player out. I uninstalled it and the problem never reoccurred. I don't know if this helps at all.... :)

Thx, I did a hard reset of my device last weekend mainly because of the terrible memory problems I am having and this issue still rermains with WMP (and with the memory).

This is really annoying cause I now use an 8 gig card in there full of music. Makes my iPod kind of redundant when I am travellimng abroad. Looks like we have a problem then with music playback.

Anyone else with the same problem out there that might have a fix??

Have you tried reformatting your storage :) card?

Yes, tried that too and still the same. I have used my card in another WM smartphone (but not 730) and the music palys back perfectly.

Could this be related to the video playback issues caused by those missing drivers?

Perhaps a relevant question: Does this only occur with tracks encoded in 192+ bps? Or also with lower quality tracks?

|Could be something to do withthe video issues and lack of drivers referred to in other posts; I am not sure. But I will stop tracks now to check if they are at or over 192 Kbps. Will let you know ...
