Only plays 25 min of large MP3s
I own several large audio books in MP3 format. When I play them on my iPod, they stop when I reach about 25 minutes into the book and just moves on to the next song or book in my playlist. Most of my books are in 90 minute chuncks. They seem to play fine on iTunes.
Does this have something to do with the buffer size in the memory? How can I play my entire auido MP3 on my iPod?

the buffer size is around the 25 minute mark - can you not split them up into smaller chunks? i have no idea how audiobooks work, but if it's one big mp3 then in iTunes, make four copies - book1, book2...book4, and in 'get info' go to options and change the stop and start times so that each leads into the other.
hope that helps, but someone else must know a better way...!
