Title: Single album doesn't have any sound.
Post by: dylstew on October 17, 2014, 01:59:31 PM

I have this one album by the Cro-Mags called Alpha-Omega, and it doesn't have sound in Musicbee. It works fine in windows media player, but in Musicbee I don't hear anything.  It's just an MP3 file, I'm not sure why this happens. This never happened to any other album.

musicbee uses the mp3 decoder that comes with windows and one of its behaviours (if i recall correctly) is that if the mp3 file has the "copyright" flag set then it plays no sound. I believe Windows Media Player uses the profession version of the mp3 decoder that doesnt have that behavior.
I suggest you try using the bass.dll version from un4seen.com, replacing the one in the musicbee application folder
