MB can't play first few seconds

[christmw2503]

Musicbee sometimes is unable to play the first seconds of a track. It's like 2 to 4 seconds of the beginning. It happens a lot in speech related files like audiobooks, but also in music tracks. I've tried to disable Crossfade and fade in new tracks, but with no success. I've tried to play those tracks in other players, and they play fine.

can you PM me a link to a zip of one of the files

Here's the Google drive link.

I'd add that the issue has been present for a long time.

i tested against foobar and dont hear any difference in the starting words played.
Check the Settings tab in the tag editor to ensure you dont have a skip time specified.
Also in the Player preferences that you dont have skip starting silence enabled

That's strange. I've just installed foobar2000 and it indeed plays the files from the beginning. It's certainly not related to a skip time, since the issue happens to a few files, not all of them.
I guess it's some settings that I messed up in MB. So, i'll just reset musicbee. I need an advice before reinstalling it. I'd like not to lose track ratings. Everything else, I can lose it with no problem. What do I do? Thx.
