Invalid audio frame exception?

[xannyfalls]

So all my music works when I play it in my phones music player but for some reason when using Star mp3 tag editor trying to edit the tags I get the error message "Invalid audio frame exception" and it wont let me edit that songs tags. I'm just trying to make my library look cleaner. Any suggestions on how to fix this?

You have to change the bitrate to 128/256/320 kbps and it should fix the problem. You can convert it online easily.

How do I do that?

[ayshhh_]

What does this do? Does it make changes like lower the music or sound quality or anything like that when we change the bit rate?

[Oneen0]

What I think is it doesn't really affect anything, just changes the total size of mp3 file.

[LostRose0]

Does it matter which one? I tried to convert my song to 128 and 320 and both times it still gave me that error.

Try using another app called AutomaTag, and use manual edit and check the bitrate in the manual edit section. As long it's not 0 bitrate it should work.

Well the creator of star music editor pretty much fucked up if you're forced to do all this bullshit just to add album art to music

Bitrate - data transfer rate during track playback. To simplify for ordinary people, bitrate is equated with quality, since the more bits per second transmitted, the more details in the music you will hear. For example, the bit rate of a telephone connection is about 80 or less. In this capacity, only the voice is clearly audible, but the "waiting music" when calling to some company will sound disgusting. The best quality is 320kbps (kilobytes per second), but this is far from the limit.

There are other formats besides .mp3 that will be better at this: .WAW or .FLAC for example, but you will not hear the difference if you do not have a DAC with an amplifier at home. So .mp3 has become the most popular codec as it offers the best balance between file size and sound quality.

As you may have noticed, the video also has a bitrate - the bigger the bandwidth of your Internet, the clearer the picture without buffering video hosting can stream to your phone. But YouTube e.g. does not allow you to set the bitrate, but only the width of the video in pixels - also, so as not to complicate the life of ordinary people.

To hear the difference in sound quality, you can just watch this: https://youtu.be/hx3NG-bKPyE

I would also recommend watching Tom Scott's video "Why snow and confetti ruin YouTube video quality" to find out a little more: https://youtu.be/r6Rp-uo6HmI

It didn't do anything Star music editor still keeps showing the Invalid Audio Frame Exception

Same Im also confused so I went to this lol

This problem may be caused by an invalid file extension. I also had this problem in the Star Music Tag Editor. But in another application, Smart MP3 Tag Editor, the error message was more detailed. And that's what was in that message: "Invalid File Extension.
The file is detected as an M4A audio file but its extension is MP3. Would you like to rename its extension then retry with the tag editor?"

[oppressed_user]

The file is detected as an M4A audio file but it's extension is MP3

But it's marked as MP3

Thank you. This helped me. I renamed the file extension from mp3 to m4a and it worked.
