Do us a favor and go download MP3Trim from here. You don't need to trim the song, just use its "advanced info" button and have it analyze whether there's a problem with the frames or not. It's possible that the MP3 has some kind of a problem with one of the frames that's causing the Empeg player software to choke on it.

While I'm at it, I'm going to go to the General forum and tell everyone about the new feature of MP3trim that can adjust the amplification of the file without decoding/encoding it...
