Why can't SonicStage import Mp3s properly

I get a clicky squarking noise from some mp3s but media player plays it fine, it's not even converting it, just bringing it into the library.

What SS are you using and on what player?

SonicStage : 3.2.00.06071 and it isn't even when it transfers to the player, when I import an mp3 (anywhere between 128K to 320K) and play it on my pc some of them sound awlful, with a clacking sound quite often on the beat and stuff like that, play the same file in media player and it's fine, SS isn't converting it, it still shows as an mp3 with the same bitrate.

I've updated to 3.3 and it's still the same

In my pc most of the imported MP3s sound louder that the Atrac files.... Also, for just a fraction of the second in the beggining the sound is low and then gets louder immediately... Sounds fishy... as if the software does it on purpose

no change with SS 3.3.

Can I use sony file manager for mp3s and sonicstage for cd rips. Is it possible to use both for the same HD5? I might download it to see if my mp3s don't get mucked up like sonicstage does to it
