    The file itself is perfectly OK, and appears and plays correctly when subscribed to in iTunes. The problem is in this tag:

     

    <itunes:duration>1:05</itunes:duration>

     

    This equates to 1 minute 5 seconds and the Store therefore will play only that amount of the file. The tag should read

     

    <itunes:duration>1:02:15</itunes:duration>

     

    If you are not handwriting your feed there must be a place in whatever creation method you are using to enter the proper timing.

     

    When you have a question, please start your own thread and post it in the correct forum - you tacked onto a thread on an unrelated subject in a different forum and I might very well not have seen it.
