corrupt file: this mp3 contains invalid
frames.
This MP3 contains frames which do not conform strictly to the official MP3 specification. Scratch Live
can not be certain that this file will play back 100% accurately.
corrupt file: this file contains corrupt
frames that may result in audible glitches.
This file contains two or more contiguous corrupt frames. Since corrupt frames are replaced with
silence, this could result in what might sound like an audio glitch.
corrupt file: this file has been split. you
should check the beginning for audio
glitches.
The first MPEG audio frame in this file refers to audio that should be present before it but is not. This
is usually the result of incorrect MP3 editing. Since a corrupt frame is replaced with silence and most
songs start with silence, the resulting silence might not be noticeable. All the same, listen to the
beginning of the song, just to be sure.
corrupt file: this mp3 contains frames
with corrupt data.
Decoding of an MPEG audio frame failed. This means that the frame contained invalid data. As usual
with corrupt frames, this frame will be played as silence.
corrupt file: this mp3 lost syncronization
between the frame index and the frames.
Scratch Live is reading an old overview of an MP3 that has been edited in a 3rd party editing
program. Re-building the overviews for the affected files usually corrects this error.
corrupt file: this mp3 is completely invalid
and is not playable.
Self explanatory. Possible causes are disk bad sectors, file system corruption, wrong file types, wrong
file extensions, etc
corrupt file: this file contains invalid audio
data.
Scratch Live encountered a lot of invalid data while looking for audio in this file. This message alerts
you to the fact that the file you're trying to play contains corrupt data. This may, or may not, affect
playback.
corrupt file: this mp3 contains no valid
frames.
No audio could be found in this file, which means it is completely unplayable as far as Scratch Live is
concerned. Please make sure this really is an audio file.
unsupported file: this mp3 contains mul-
tiple layers.
While scanning this file, Scratch Live found frames belonging to multiple MPEG layers. Scratch Live
does not support MP3s that contain frames from multiple layers – some frames may be output as
silence.
unsupported file: this file is more than
2GB in size.
Self explanatory. At the moment, Scratch Live does not support files that are 2GB in size (or larger).
unsupported file: this file has data blocks
greater than 2GB in size.
This file contains chunks of data that are larger than 2GB. Scratch Live does not support files that are
more than 2GB in size.
corrupt file: this WaV contains no valid
chunks.
This WAV file contains no recognizable WAV data. It is quite possible that this might not be a WAV file.
unsupported file: this file's data is not in
pcm format.
WAV files can contain data in several formats. Scratch Live only supports WAV files that contain data
in the PCM format.
unsupported file: this file has a sampling
rate greater than 96 khz.
Scratch Live does not support sampling rates greater than 96 kHz. If you see this message, the
simplest approach is to re-sample the audio at 96 kHz and re-save the file.
unsupported file: this file uses more than
24 bits per sample
Scratch Live supports a maximum of 24 bits per sample of audio data.
corrupt file: this WaV is incomplete.
Scratch Live expected more data in the file, but found none. This could be because the file was
incorrectly truncated or because the data in the file is corrupt, causing Scratch Live to incorrectly
estimate the amount of data present in the file.
corrupt file: this file contains corrupt
blocks.
This file contains blocks of data that report their size to be zero. This message was inserted to identify
files that might cause lockups on previous versions of Scratch Live.
corrupt file: this song contains no audio
data.
Scratch Live could not find any audio in this file. Please check to make sure this file contains audio in
a format that Scratch Live supports.
corrupt file: this song contains invalid
samples.
This file contains samples of audio that are too small to represent accurately and will therefore
be truncated to zero. This should not result in any audible audio artifacts, but could cause audio
dropouts on earlier versions of Scratch Live.
