I just upgraded my device to iOS 8 and started getting a decode error with some of my mp3 files that are being played using the media plugin. They played fine with iOS 6 and iOS 7. Here are the two files one plays fine the other gives the MediaError.MEDIA_ERR_DECODE = 3 error.

Anyone know why this is happening and if there is any software I can use to re-encode the files and to see if it fixes them?
