Hopefully this works. I've been having the same problem and actually just gave up on waiting for an official MS fix and just wiped it comeplete. Wish I had googled for this first. The zune has been wonderful up until now (I didn't even pay for it, it was broken and I replaced the HDD ) and that was my only complaint ever. Consistently it would not track time, and when it wasn't tracking time, the pause button did not work properly (If I paused and then chose to go to the next track, it would resume playing but the pause logo would still be there. Grrr. )

Thanks

Sadly mine is still losing track of time with the games reinstalled. (COMPLETE reformat/reinstall of firmware incase there was a micro build)

This fix stopped working, and my Zune 30 has only gotten worse:

-Freezes.

-Time meter issues.

[B]-It. won't. pause.

My Zune 30 seems to work fine now that it has the 'default' background.
No more freezing, no more randomly shutting down. Still wanna upgrade to a 120 though.

I did this, and at first I thought it was fixed, but then it froze again. It just reduced the number of times it happens.

By the way, for those have the glitches,
This link should answer some of your questions

I tried this and it fixed my "chipmunk" podcasts. I've been using the soft reset to fix the song timer bug. We'll see if this fixes both. Thanks!
