The database appeared to be back in action after this, but now I get "software aborted connection" errors while emplode attempts to upload my test OGG file to the player.

Oddball thought, but try down-grading to 2.00, then RE-upgrading to 3.00a3..

I had the same issue with MP3 (Player giving memory errors). I just down-graded, then re-upgraded. Issue gone. ..

Dunno why..

Me.
