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.

My point was both of these have always been perfect up to last week which no changes to the account?
Cheers.

Interesting, thanks for letting me know, Rob!
And if you download them from Dropbox locally to the device, are you able to preview them without an issue?
