Problem with untagged files

Just posted this message on Linn DS forum but I think you will have the answer:-

Using minimserver on Qnap NAS to serve bbc radio tracks saved as .m4a files. Due to an error on my part a number of files were not tagged at the time they were downloaded. No problem I thought I can navigate using folder view. Using BubbleDS on Samsung SIII I can move the files into playlist but they do not play on any of my DS devices. (The files play fine if I just share them with NFS.) Any views as to where the problem lies? Is it the control point, minimserver or the DS which falls down with the untagged files?

I shall of course be tagging the files in due course but meanwhile would like to understand the cause of the problem and learn if there is a quick fix pending the tagging exercise.

Budgie

This should work. Please upload one of the problem files to my FTP site and I'll take a look at it.

Edit: This will happen if the sample table follows the audio data instead of preceding it. The Linn DS will only play files that have the sample table before the audio data.
