Could not find valid MPEG synch before end of file
« on: January 04, 2011, 02:06:11 am »
Hello,

I'm new around here and I saw similar topic on this error, however the solutions given didn't solved mine !

I've updated to the last blubrry version (amazing software btw!) and I setup the new line in wp-config.php define('POWERPRESS_DOWNLOAD_BYTE_LIMIT', 800000); but I still got the error preventing me to upload any new podcast...

I tried 2 different convertors (M4A to MP3) for my files but the result is still the same -everything was working perfectly before.

What could I do ?

Make sure the define is near the top of the wp-config.php file. If it is near the bottom, below the include/require line, then it will not do anything.

Try doubling the value. The value below will download 1.6Mb of the media file to get the meta information.

Code: [Select]
define('POWERPRESS_DOWNLOAD_BYTE_LIMIT', 1600000);
Also, reply with the URL to the media file in question so we can test.

Did you try larger values?

And the URL you are trying to verify?

Please try a media file without spaces in the file name. You should be getting a warning from PowerPress for using a URL with spaces in them.
