Difference between MPEG1, Layer 2 and MPEG1, Layer 3
I noticed I have 20 songs in my Library that won't copy to my ipod. Upon inspecction I found that these songs, even though their extension is .mp3 are MPEG 1 Layer 2 instead of Layer 3, which seems to be the codec the ipod can play (correct me if I am wrong please).
What are the differences between these two codecs? More importantly, how can I convert the files to the correct codec so I can put them in my ipod?
Finally, out of the 20 songs I have identified 11, my Library is 3000+ songs, is there an easy way to search for the other 9 without going through all the Library?
Thanks in advance.
