Default Some MP3's in MMI showing black screen like video

Hi there

Have a strange thing where certain mp3's played via Audi MMI comes up like when you are trying to play a video where the screen goes black when driving.
MP3 plays fine but acts like a video file though is only a mp3 file.

Any ideas what the issue is?

Could it be the prohibition against video while the car is in motion?

But if it is a mp3 file surely this shouldn't happen,

i honestly dont know. I activated VIM using the OBDeleven and i dont have that problem, but im not honestly sure about the mp3 part of the file. I assume it is a video file in there, but i’m an idiot when it comes to that. My understanding is that mp3 is audio only and that mp4 is digital so it can have video.

Just to add to the confusion.
I copied the mp3 file to the MMI Jukebox storage and all works fine.
Track plays and shows the details and album art.
If i try from sd card black screen and plays ok but when stop get warning like if trying to watch a video whilst moving....
Anyone got any ideas as i prefer loading up SD cards so i csn take out when i want.

Cheers
