Impossible to use mp3 file in the Arranger

Hi!
I'm trying MAGIX Music Maker 15.
I've a problem with MP3 files.
Even if they are correctly displayed in the Media Pool and, when selected with the mouse, they are played very well, when I try to drag and drop it in the Arranger window first a "Path don't found \:\! " message is displayed and second, after click OK,  a "Magix Music Maker can't be read file format..." message is displayed and it is impossible to use the file.
The only way to use these MP3 file is converting them into WAW format.
Is there any way to use directly MP3 files in the arranger?
Thanks in advance.

Hi there,

Where does the MP3 file come from and how was it created? Was this created with a CD-ripping software, possibly with an image embedded into it? Music Maker doesn't seem to like some of these files. Extracting this into a PCM WAV file or some similar conversion process might really be your best option to get this file into Music Maker.
