Ok, so what to do? You now officially exclude
all Winamp Users? Well, i guess that could be a couple of people...

Since original archos software handles that, i guess that there
are more programs out there that cause junk insertion, otherwise
the archos coders never would have implemented that!

.... i wonder if i am the only person who has this problems ...

But you happily use programs that corrupt the MP3 files by filling it
with
junk?

No, that is the part that is trying to *remove* the delay. The delay is
caused by the junk in your MP3 file.

No, it isn't hard. It just wouldn't have to be necessary if the Winamp
authors had their brains where they belonged.
