Why do some of my custom brstms glitch and crackle up on Brawl?

[ICEing]

I dont understand why some songs work perfectly and others dont. Can anyone explain to me why please?

Defrag your SD card. Search "defrag program" in Google and DL one.

It cant be that. My SD card is quite new and alot of songs do work. Just some glitch a LOT

Exactly, defrag your SD Card. That's the definition of a situation where a defrag fixes the problem, Segtendo's right. It can be, actually

So I searched on Google and got "Auslogics Defrag Program." Is that a good one? And Will defraging the SD Card delete the data I have on it?

 

[OceanBlue]

Yes, it's a good one. darksamus77 recommends it. *Thumbs up*
Also, defragmenting your SD card won't delete any data unless your SD card is terrible and near the end of its lifespan, and defragmenting it kills it or something.

What defragmenting something means is that it rearranges the data so all the file pieces are grouped together. The problem with fragmented SD cards are that, from what I remember of an explanation I heard, Brawl or the File Patch Code aren't made to search for fragmented pieces of data, so there's static because of... some reason I can't remember [probably having to do with extraneous data or something]. Of course, if I remember correctly. Can someone who actually knows explain it to me?

So if I defrag, then get more music, will I have to defrag again? Or is it a one time thing? :0

It'll be good until it occurs with another song, which shouldn't be for quite some time...

And if defragging doesn't work (sometimes it doesn't) move all your data off, do a full format, and then move your data back in

That's the method I go for that xmanfit0 suggested. Hasn't been a time where it didn't work

How do you perform a full format?

How do you perform a full format?

In Windows, right-click on the SD Card's icon in My Computer and select Format from the menu.

A full re-formatting WILL delete everything currently on the card. Make sure you back up the card's contents before you do this.
