For me it was Traktor's tags... sometimes when I'm really pissed off I just decode to wav and to mp3 again. Should be working everytime, just as it is for me.

Hm... That sound awful, but we can't say anything without seeing LAME settings..

My point was that any kind of re-encoding mp3 equals loss of quality - no matterZygi wrote:Hm... That sound awful, but I we can't say anything without seeing LAME settings..

Re: Could Not be Read Corrupted Not Licensed
Okay for those still on the topic ...My problem it turns out was caused by the file extensions somehow having mysteriously changed to .wav when they were .aiff's!! So, technically not Abletons fault at all...however as has been noted no other programs seem to have had a problem reading those files...it would be a good thing if Live would recognize the format and not the extension and seems like it would be fairly simple to implement but, hey, I program beats not code so what do I know.

Re: Could Not be Read Corrupted Not Licensed
so did you just change the extension and it worked out for you?

Re: Could Not be Read Corrupted Not Licensed
Yes, thankfully in AudioFinder you can "power rename".... find .wav replace with .aiff...that made things very easy. I guess it's not an answer for the mp3 problems but maybe there is a clue in there...check the file extensions...or another clue might be, in the case of wav/aiffs I found out that even though Live use 32 bit internally it didn't play/load 32 bit files either (I'm not sure if that was a floating point issue or what but Reason couldn't play those files either) When I converted them to 16bit all was good.

Bump for Ableton response.
This problem is driving me insane. It's happening only selectively on some of my MP3s, making importing a hit and miss affair... which is a severe pain in the ass when playing out.
I didn't have the problem before, but I'm presently running Live off an XP partition that runs side by side with a Win7 partition. You think that could be the problem?

no. people are having these issues on all 3 platforms. no matter if they dual or single boot, or bootcamp it or whatever.
Re: Could Not be Read Corrupted Not Licensed
This one just bit me too. I finally got some time to organize about 500 tracks I had warped and now I'm getting this message sporadically. I'm going to try installing QuickTime next but I'm also checking to see if telling my PC to "show file extensions" is the culprit perhaps?
I will know in a bit, but if anyone fixed this I'd love to hear. I am on 8.0.5 as well.

Re: Could Not be Read Corrupted Not Licensed
Well it works for me now and it was one of two things if you're running windows:
1) install QuickTime and make sure to associate your filetypes to QuickTime as a default.
2) go to any folder, select Tools>Folder options>View> and make sure "hide extensions for known filetypes" is UN-checked.
Not sure which one did the trick, but it's working fine now.

Re: Could Not be Read Corrupted Not Licensed
Another weird variety here: I have never had this problem with Live7 and now I have it with Live8 that I've just been running as demo so far. Some mp3s and flacs announce corrupted or not licensed.
The previous post rang a bell: as a matter of fact I did have changed the default player of all music files from itunes to VLC. I was not too enthousiastic about changing everything back, so I just tested it by changing back one music file. Now it seems like everything works again.

Re: Could Not be Read Corrupted Not Licensed
Yes, I had this problem too. I'm running Windows 7, Live 8.1. Who knows why, but installing Quicktime appears to have fixed it. Odd.
