Problem: SonicStage with VBR Mp3s

This is probably caused by whatever you are using as your system [directshow] MP3 codec. SS appears to be allergic to certain codecs, so to speak.

Once again, I will decline giving detailed advice on how to fix this, though. There are many possible problems/solutions, some codecs don't even show up in the relevant control panel [sound and audio devices, under the "hardware" tab, double-click on "audio codecs" in the list], and others do not respect codec priorities even when you set them manually. Some malware also install a broken codec which replaces the one that comes with WiMP [iIRC].

In any case, the general advice is to check what codec you're using, and if it's being a problem, dump it for something else.

If in doubt, look around online for the actual FhG MP3 codec, it worked fine for me before I switched to using FFDshow.
