    If I understand you correctly I have exactly the same issue with my files - lots of errors when playing cue files, although the sound does appear correctly.

    If I understand well, this is the right place to post bug reports about .cue sheet support added in MP 1.0.1.

    I use Helium Music Manager to tag my mp3 files. I use "subtrack" feature to add subtrack info to tag of a ripped CD into one mp3 file. Once I've added this info, I export it to .cue file, so MP can use it (MP can't read subtrack info from tag, AFAIK). If I navigate to this directory using My Music, there's no track listed, and I get this error.log:

    Code (Text):
    1. 2009-04-17 09:34:35.782000 [ERROR][MPMain]: GUIMusicFiles: An error occured while loading the directory La longitud no puede ser inferior a cero.
    2. Nombre del parámetro: length
    I've compared .cue file generated by Helium and other .cue files I've got (generated by EAC after ripping) and work well, and I found that the first one doesn't have "MP3" at the end of "FILE" line...

    Generated by Helium
    Code (Text):
    1. FILE "whatever.mp3"
    Generated by EAC
    Code (Text):
    1. FILE "whatever.mp3" MP3
    Should I "complain" to Helium developers? Is this a bug you should fix? :p

    Thank you so much for your effort.

    Hi peque!

    The EAC generated Cuesheet has the right syntax! The command "file" specifies the kind of files to be burned to CD or to listen!

    For more help about Cuesheets, take a look to this site (unfortunately its in german) -> Link

    Best regards

    Helios

    So... I'll contact Helium devs to point out this issue, as "MP3" as datatype is a must as standard says. In the meanwhile, I'll have to edit manually the cuesheets generated by Helium...

    Thanks!

    peque may I suggest cuetools:
    CUETools 1.9.5 - Hydrogenaudio Forums
    It has got a file name corrector that should do what you need. The app has a batch mode that can correct a batch of cue sheets at once.
    Though I'm not 100% certain if it works for .mp3 but I think it should.

    I used it to correct file names and it changed the WAV into APE. (Did the ripping with dbpa to mokeys audio - APE extension and created the cue sheets with EAC).

    If using no/lossless compression audio CueTools can even do a lot more things:
    * Check if CD has been ripped accurately
    * Detection of HDCD
    * Offset correcion, if the CD has been ripped with the wrong offset
    ...

    Just for the records - with the cue type I use "Multiple Files With Gaps (Noncompliant)" from EAC I did run into some problems / strange behaviour, now as cue sheets are supported.
    I did then delete the .cue extention from the supported file types list and then everything worked normal again. :D
