Maybe because of m4a files as well. My ADD-question to your question is; is it possible to restart just the MPD deamon app on the NMT, or does one have to restart the NMT?

You may be able to restart the daemon using 'sh daemon.sh stop' and start from a telnet window. However, I found that I needed to do a full reboot, and then delete the current playlist with the m4a song in it otherwise the mpc command in the telnet window failed to respond.

I guess this is just an issue with the m4a codec compiled in mpd, and so hopefully could be easily fixed by those in the know? Otherwise, I'll have to start transoding all those m4a files... whilst listening to the missus whinging..
