I picked up an mp3 " (album) " file, which appears to be a single mp3 file.
When I tried to open it with mi1 (makeitone) I got an error msg (that I assume is a .NET msg?) about the option to try to continue using the program or go ahead and have it close (aka crash). I clicked the option to try to continue but all the options in the mi1 window were grayed out and I wound up having to shut it down anyway.
I checked trying to open it with ALBW and with Alba Extractor; both reported via simple popup windows that it was an "unknown format" etc.
I played the file in mp3DirectCut where it opens & plays fine and appears to be a single rip of the album into one large mp3 (file size approx 92meg) .
I simply wanted to point this out to make sure it wasn't simply a mi1 bug that could be fixed (so that if the competitors programs don't crash trying it, they'd have a bit of an edge here).
my sys basics:
Win XP SP2
.NET versions 2.0 & 3.0
