so my prior external drive on which my entire iTunes library is stored (~400gb) crashed and i recovered it using Revo. Problem is that in the recovery process a sizable number of iTunes audio files got corrupted. The corruption causes them to start to play, then a some point (it varies song to song, but aroiund 30 seconds or so) it stops and goes to the next song. This happened to mp3, apple lossless, aa4 ... it seems format independent.
The songs all "show" as normal ... song length, title, format, etc., all appear correct. It's only when you play them does the corruption appear.
My questions is whether there is any way to automate finding these corrupt files so I can replace the ones I'll miss or just delete them. I've tried a few search scripts but nothing so far.
Any ideas welcome
