I can also comfirm that Aurora imports MP3's just fine. I've imported at least 10 from my older D-Light sequences. It looks like it might therefore be a DRM (Digital Rights Management Issue and /or MP3 bit rates). Try re-ripping the song to Wav

As it says above, Aurora definitely will import MP3 files. I've done it, but there can be some "gotchas."  As in DRM - digital rights management, or it can be compressed with a Variable Bitrate or MP3Pro encoder that Aurora just can't decode properly. Some MP3 files are just difficult. Did you encode it yourself or download? If you downloaded it, you are at the mercy of whoever created the file as to how clean it is.

Aurora does support MP3 files, however it appears that Aurora can not read this particular audio file.  Does the file contain any DRM that might be preventing Aurora from reading it?

I guess I could convert the MP3 to WAV format, however shouldn't the software be able to import the audio file in the MP3 format?  The drop down menu gives many different formats to choose from.

I just downloaded the new release and see if the problem still exists.

I would suspect a problem with the MP3 file first. Do you have another copy of it? Or can you convert it to WAV and try it?

Received the following message when importing LOR 1.X file:
"Unexpected error Aurora will reset"
Debugging info
6: Overflow main processing loop Aurora audio.

This message occurred immediately after I selected the audio file (MP3 format)

Thanks,
Pete
