My Empeg player now locks up after booting and starting the first song (in it's cache, I assume; it plays for 1-2 seconds then locks up). Before booting, it sits at the "Building Music Database..." screen for ~30 seconds before continuing to boot, much longer than normal.

The first problem might be a corrupted MP3 file. Is it always the same song that locks you up?

The second problem can almost certainly be fixed by doing a re-synch. (Just open the player up with emplode, make a trivial change to a tag on one of your songs, and this will force a re-synch.)
