Problem syncing audio to HD2

Hi,
I have a strange problem syncing audio to my HD2 (and for that mater an old ETEN X800 as well - so I think its a WM6.x problem in general). My PC music library is stored in lossless wma format. I use Media Player 12 under Win7 x64 to sync to the HD2 having it transcode to 128k wma.
Once synced to the HD2, Media Player on the HD2 will not play the files. It gives the error "Cannot perform the requested action". The original files are not DRM they were ripped from my own CDs. I have an old SD card with the same library of music ripped to the same format which was synced using Vista under WMP11 on an older phone and these will play!
If I turn off the "Convert files" option in WMP12 and sync an MP3 file it plays - so its only wma files that are effected.
It seems there is some compatibility issue between WMP12 transcoded wma files and Windows Mobile ? I know there are other tools around to sync music, I'd just like to keep all syncing to the one process (email, nusic etc)

you will probably get better results if you move the music to the sd card directly, not using sync.

If I use a third-party converter to convert the same file to 128k wma and then copy it manually it plays fine, so it's definitely an issue with WMP12 syncing.
Copying the "broken" wma back to a PC it will play though in WMP12 but its tags in explorer are missing!

Sync Playlist on Mac

I am using a Macbook and had managed to sync playlists/songs/podcast to SGS after 2 weeks of seaching. Everything went a-ok but the music player in SGS was not able to recognise the playlist.... which has an extension .m3u. Any advise?

What did you end up using to sync your iTunes library?
I have a Macbook and iPhone but am going to be switching to the Galaxy S. I don't use Playlists on my iTunes.
How did you sync all your music to the phone?

salling media sync does a really nice job of syncing anything you have in iTunes to your GS, works on mac and pc. Double twist also does the job.

I use doubletwist, does a good job.

Does it sync playlists to Samsungs inbuilt player?

Syncing video issues

Hello,
So I used Handbrake to convert a move into MP4 to sync with Focus, and when I click and drag the move into Zune desktop client, it says, "Media Type Not Failed."
I've attached screenshots of the settings.
What am I doing wrong that Zune won't accept the video format?

music sync problems

so everytime I try to sync using Motorola Media Sync, it syncs every song, even songs which are already on the phone. This is in contrast to my ipod, which only adds new ITunes songs or takes away deleted ones. Thats what I want my Atrix to do. I cannot wait forever for the phone to sync over 700 songs. How do I make this happen? I sync with Itunes. Also, sometimes it doesn't get songs, takes songs from the same album and put them into different albums or doesn't adhere to what I put in ITunes, help

Don't use iTunes but my kid does and isyncr works well for her. IIRC it cost a couple bucks AMD the WiFi sync add on was a buck. Not sure about how it works with an entire library but playlists sync added/removed songs easy enough for her.

Alternatively, you may try Google Music Beta, it is free during beta phase, it syncs all your musics from itune or Windows media player or specified folders into Google cloud service, then you have the choices to stream your musics thru 3G/wifi or make them offline for playback on your device. You can also play them on any browser anywhere, highly recommended to any Android users.

so after spending several hours with the crappy pc xbox music app creating playlists only to find out there is no way to sync it to my windows phone unless they are drm music content from the xbox music store via cloud sync, which my music is mp3 drm free content btw and I have no renewed my music pass because im earning my bing points back to a free pass, I was going crazy trying to figure out how to sync a playlist of mp3s to my windows phone

Same thing with PC, after this new update, I keep getting 80070002 error when trying to sync or play certain (random) MP3 files that use to work just fine.

Use itunes for create playlist and import with windows phone app desktop.
