help on cue file

i searched the forum but aparently my problem doesnt appear anywere. I think its only a cue sheet problem but i was unable to solve it. i have the cue file saying:

PERFORMER "VA"
TITLE "Naked Music Presents Lost On Arrival"
FILE "VA_Naked_Music_Presents_Lost_on_Arrival.mp3" MP3
  TRACK 01 AUDIO
    TITLE "Cosmic Dance Percapella"
    PERFORMER "Tea Dancer"
    INDEX 01 00:00:00
  TRACK 02 AUDIO
.... and so on

and the mp3 file named

naked_music_presents_lost_on_arrival.mp3

is something wrong? i think its all ok but the foobar gives me the following message:
ERROR (foo_input_std) : referenced file doesn't exist
ERROR (foo_input_std) : referenced file doesn't exist
....

Perhaps you should rename naked_music_presents_lost_on_arrival.cue into naked_music_presents_lost_on_arrival.mp3.cue ?

The name of the cue sheet will not affect this in any way.  You can name a cue sheet whatever you want as long as it has .cue at the end since the file location is within the text of the cue.  Here is the method I have used in the past to fix this sort of problem.

First, try placing the cue file in the same folder as the mp3 file.  If that doesn't work then just enter the full path name for the mp3 file in the cue sheet.  So it will look something like this...

FILE "C:\My Documents\My Music\VA\naked_music_presents_lost_on_arrival.mp3" MP3

Hope that helps,
J

Are the song times displayed?  Does the file play?

You would get this if there were no TITLE/PERFORMER statements in the cue file.

Nothing to worry about.

If not, ensure the MP3 is in the same folder as the cue, and if all else fails post the full cuesheet here.

This doesn't make sense.  Changing the TITLE shouldn't make a difference to whether it works or not!
