Default [Q] MP3 Duration Problems on CM7 TG Reloaded

I have an unusual problem on my Triumph since installing the most recent CM7. I listen to audiobooks on the phone, and use MortPlayer for audiobooks. I had one audiobook of about 10 hours that I was listening to using Mortplayer with Froyo before the upgrade and it played fine. I installed CM7, loaded Mortplayer, and now the program thinks the track is only 7 minutes long-- it keeps playing after 7 minutes, but it won't save bookmarks past the 7 minute mark. I checked other programs, and all of them think the track is 7 minutes long, and a second similar audiobook is 11 minutes long.

Normally I would think the MP3 was corrupt or the tag wasn't written properly-- but I don't think this is it. It was working fine with Froyo, I checked it with a utility for errors, and it's not a VBR file (which are susceptible to duration problems). It seems to handle shorter MP3's fine, but CM7 seems to be having problems with very long duration files.

Has anyone else heard of this problem?

Thanks,

Gnat

Never mind... I'm not quite sure what is the difference between the MP3 libraries in Froyo vs. Gingerbread, but I ran a new set of diags against the MP3 files and they seem to be reading at the correct duration now under Gingerbread. It seems like the MP3s had wonky headers or something.
