We calculate dilepton production for the reactions π-C and π-Pb at 1.3 GeV within a semiclassical BUU transport model and compare our results to a previously published calculation. We show that a modified treatment of the ρ meson production and propagation gives substantially different results. We, furthermore, discuss uncertainties related to the electromagnetic decay of the ρ meson and the elementary π-Ne+e-X channels.
