Certain WAV file not playing, show as unknown

[Ralph sir edward]

I am working with an A-110.

I have plugged in a large library of wav file on an external harddrive. These files play fine on Windows media player and were ripped from CD by Sonic Foundry 6.0. Some CD's worth of tracks refuse to play on PCH.

The one that work shown media type of PCM, and the ones that Don;t show a media type of unknown. I have taken samples of each and put them on a Thumb drive. I then tried to play them off the thumb drive with the same results.

I have the latest firmware for the A-110 installed. Any ideas.

I would suggest checking the format with something like mediainfo. You can then post the results if needed and be helped
