Why don't those files play!? >:0
 

I have found discs with many old files (mp3 mostly) from the past, the disc is a data disc.
I want to play the songs on the disc, but they don't play for some reason! They should, because all other files on discs and old data discs I have play fine.

POST EDIT: I might have found a cause for the problem.

You are trying to play an MP3 file that contains compressed ID3 headers. The ID3 header is a portion of the file that stores the song's album information (for example, the song name, artist name, album name, and genre). This information is sometimes called a "tag."

To fix the problem, make a copy of the file and then use a non-Microsoft ID3 tag editing program to remove or reset the file's ID3 headers. After you remove the ID3 headers, Windows Media Player should be able to play the MP3 file.

Attempting to remove ID3 headers might damage the file and make it unplayable. Therefore, always make a copy of the file before you edit it.

If this solution does not resolve the problem, the file might be corrupted.


But I have no idea what a Non-Microsoft 1D3 tag is! D:

Read properly. It says 'non-Microsoft ID3 tag editing program', nut just 'non-Microsoft ID3 tag'. Try this - http://www.magnusbrading.com/mp3ts/

That program has failed me.

When I try to repair the Mp3, it says "error".



EDIT: I actually found a way to get the files off the disc and onto the computer, I clicked Repair but it still didn't work.
















EPIC PHAIL

Not sure about this, but have you tried playing it inside Winamp or another media player?

Yes. I still get the same problem.
