demo sketch crashes? less then a second of audio

[Anonymous]

Hello everybody,
I use the shield ‘out of the box’  with the demo loaded.
When I run the serial monitor and send ‘1’ it plays for less then a millisecond.
Sometimes I get a error code: 2.
Either way, I can just play the mp3 file for a millisecond once and then i have to reset to try anything again.
Please help, please please.
Thanks in advance,|
Marcel

please refer to the trouble shooting guide, located at http://mpflaga.github.io/Sparkfun-MP3-Player-Shield-Arduino-Library/

And also search this forum this is not an uncommon symptom.

In short its either a interrupt problem with the shield or an SdCard problem.
