Hey Rob8585!

Hi Megan.
It is an audio file that l have saved in a folder in my Account.
The two audio files in question are 405 KB and 2.2 MB in size, not the biggest by any stretch.
Both skip at 10 seconds.
When viewed on Dropbox through the browzer when you can see the preview across the bottom, the 'black line' only stretches to the 10 seconds as opposed to the full time.
My point was both of these have always been perfect up to last week which no changes to the account?
Cheers.
