Version of Drupal with this issue: 6.10 (did not have this problem prior to this update, and this was the first attempt at importing audio files since the update)

I've been using Audio Import for quite some time now, and never had this issue.

Last night, I attempted to import 15 audio files to my website. All of them are in the same format, file naming scheme, everything is identical [other than they are different audio files, of course ;0)] .

The audio_import tool only showed 4 of the 15 files there to import. So I imported those (ID3 info didn't import at all, which seems to be the case most of the time I use the tool, which might could be nailed down to a particular browser - I've just not tried to verify).

For the other 11 files, I tried creating a new folder for the imports, moving those files to the new folder, and retrying import, nothing... moved back to original import folder, again nothing. Each time when I moved the files, I was also sure to update the audio-import-settings folder location to match where the audio files were.

Any ideas as to what could be causing this issue? It's really got me scratching my head, b/c everything else so far is working the same with Drupal 6.10. I've been using at least since 6.5 or 6.6, and I've updated at every new Drupal minor release.

Thanks for any thoughts/help/suggestions.

Anybody got any clues? I even tried looking at the code in the audio module, but from what little I know so far, I couldn't see how in the world it could be doing this. The files are all standard MP3 files. nothing odd, nothing fancy.

I'm still working on it, but I've got nothing so far. Of course, as already stated, I know very little PHP so far.

Well, I've tried some more things. And so far, it's just a certain group of MP3 files that won't import. I've got a batch process running on that handful of files to see if I can remedy whatever issue it is, but I don't have the slightest - I will at least need to run one more bath process, b/c the file sizes will REALLY be quite large in 44.1khz and stereo.. everything I've ever used is 22khz and mono.

I've changed this to "by design." I found the issue. It was that the files which I could not upload had ".MP3" at the end of the file name. Well, I didn't put mp3 AND MP3 in the list of available formats in the settings, so it's only taking mp3. So, that just tells me that it is very case sensitive. That's fine, just so I knew!

Well, hopefully someone else won't have to wait this long to figure out this silly matter at some point in the future.
