    Issue with Mounted MP3s

    i have a number of MP3s living on a remote PC (XP). They're mounted in '/mnt/music'.

    i've been trying to copy a number of them to a local MP3 player but now keep getting 'Error: could not read from file...' messages. This has only happened in the last 24 hours.

    Also, possibly related, when trying to play some of these files in Amarok (1.3-7) the program will just shut down. No errors, nothing, it just closes.

    It might be a 'stale handle' problem - has the remote XP system been rebooted in between attempts to read?
    If so you may have to unmount and remount to get it to work.

    Further, there may be files half-written, which would cause problems.
