Full Version: iPod Shuffle LAME VBR skipping?

I'm thinking about buying an iPod Shuffle. I know that there were some reports of LAME-encoded VBR mp3 files skipping on some of the earlier-generation full size iPods and the Nano. Has anyone seen anything about this happening on the Shuffle, too?

Nano, too? I thought they were gone in Nano. blink.gif
Sorry for hijacking your thread, but I was considering buying an iPod Nano next year and was almost sure that somebody wrote that the skipping problems are gone.

I have a few files that skip on my Nano, but it doesn't really bother me.

I know that they were fixed in the most recent hard drive-based iPods (aka the "iPod Video"). I suppose there might have been a software update that fixed it in the Nano too?

Ah, in this post, users complain about the Nano.

Anyways, back to the initial question. My mom has an iPod Shuffle with 512 MB and it sometimes skip. sad.gif
