I'll provide screenshot below (see "error" attachment). Only a few of my files were affected, i.e. turned out all were broken, that's it. So, Artmature, you probably had corrupted files somehow.

"Strange errors" side-note:
Tried changing metadata, renaming files and directories to no avail. Yet something strange happened during this process. I used EASYtag to do all that and it gave me an unusual error ("Can't display the picture, as not enough data has been read to determine how to create the image buffer"). In the log I found short descriptor ("Error with 'loader_close': Error interpreting JPEG image file (Aplication transferred too few scanlines"). Strange, right?
there are no jpg files (or any other files but mp3). I am thinking those files either broken or were nicely packaged as Windows viruses. Most likely broken.

i hope this information helps you somehow.

Vladimir.
