This has happened a couple of times where I put a mp3 music file into my project, saved the project but when I go back to the project later, SMVS PE 8.0b crashes and I can't ever open that project again. Has this happened to anybody else?

I can use the same mp3 files in a SMVS PE 7.0b project save and exit and then go back into version 7 with no problems. If I use version 7 to create a new mp3 file of the music and then us it in version 8, then no more crashes.

The error messages in version 8, states an exception occurred in Module 'mp3plug2.dll'.

Yeah, a bug of that DLL. I can only suggest to re-encode the mp3 file with iTunes instead of random mp3s downloaded from the web that might be coming from buggy encoders. Better safe than sorry...

And file a bug report with the exact error in the online bug form. I don't think there is anything else you could do about it..
