Music Duration Wrong DPS4

I have a 600+ slideshow that want to add enought music to play during the entire show. When I add songs form the Slideshow tab, some songs added have their duration listed for much longer than it is supposed to be. For example I add a song that is 4m37s and the duration shows 24m32s. Further, the song only really plays for 4m37s and then there is no music. If I trim the song clip to exactly the 4m37s, then everything works fine. However it's a real pain to trim every song! My songs are mp3 format. They worked in v2 and v3.

We have had no problems like this but we used .wav files only. Try converting one of your .mp3 files to .wav and see what the duration is reported as in PS4.

Let us know how it works for you.

Wav files do not appear to suffer the same problem as mp3. However, I do not wish to duplicate my music library, especially in the very large wav format. It's not conducive to workflow to convert music as I am browsing and selecting it.
